Comments, editing, welcome. This is pulled from a variety of sources and edited to fit, so it might not make sense. I would like to see this document in its final form ratified at the next meeting, so we can start collecting subscriptions and allowing accounts to be created. -- CraigBox
Use of the WLUG community server at hoiho.wlug.org.nz (hereby referred to as 'the WLUG Community Server' indicates acceptance of the following Acceptable Use Policy. Violation of any of these conditions will result in the immediate cancellation of the account(s).
-* Shell Access is only made available to paid members of the [Waikato Linux User's Group|WaikatoLinuxUsersGroup]. Any accounts found being accessed from outside the WLUG's catchment area will be terminated

-No, the above was taken from other AUPs on other sites. I dont think Net4U's traffic model differentiates between national and international traffic. However, this issue is up to Net4U. Comments from Net4U? With respect to the actual point above, its probably best to remove the second part of that clause, its unneeded. --DanielLawson

-I earlier added Shell access only, because once the wiki is there anyone reading without being a wlug member would be in breach of this policy (www access)

# Anything related to [IRC]. We don't need the poor Box DDoS'd by *other* people.
Other Misc "Rules":
# The [WLUG] committee reserve the right to terminate your account for any reason what so ever, including, no reason at all. (hmm, guilty even if proven innocent? --KyleCarter, Sometimes you find someone who abuses the services who isn't actually breaking the rules, and you can't remove them easily, also we may wish to deny new accounts since the machine is overloaded and people can use another one or similar, or just remove accounts from people who don't use them to free resources so others can. -- PerryLorier)

# The WLUG Committee will attempt to comply with New Zealand Police in any investigation regarding illegal activity originating, targetting or in any way involving the WLUG Community Server, or any related resources.
Violation of these guidelines can result in your account being terminated, and possible expulsion from the UserGroup.
The Waikato Linux Users Group Incorporated cannot be held responsible to the content of data passing through its community server. We recommend that critical or private data is not stored on the server. WLUG cannot be held responsible for any lost and/or corrupted data. Services are offered for "as is" for free. The WLUG committee reserve the right to stop offering them without prior notice.

+This discussion related to the original first point. I have now updated it to clear up confusion. I see CraigBox has also added another point under Misc Rules that makes the original intention quite clear. Discussion below preserved for posterity.
