Justmommies Terms of Service

Welcome to Justmommies.com! We are an online community for mothers created in April 2003. Anyone using our site is responsible for abiding by our terms of service. Justmommies terms of service may be updated at any time. Users are responsible for reviewing our terms of service.

Our message boards are free for all registered users. You may read our boards without registering but in order to post or private message you must be registered. We would like our boards to be a safe place for people to post. We would like to avoid censorship, however, there are times when it will be necessary. Please read our guidelines for what is unacceptable. We reserve the right to remove any posts we believe are against our terms of service.

Signature Guidelines: 
Policy changes for August 2, 2005:
Justmommies has signature guidelines restricting signatures to 600x600 pixels. The reason this is set is because of load time on our pages. Huge signatures slow down the time pages load quite dramatically. We are requesting that signatures please stay within these guidelines.

Signature can contain any number of images, tickers, blinkies, etc. however, they must stay within 600 pixels x 600 pixels total size.

Members may include signatures that are political or controversial in nature. We try to allow members the opportunity to express themselves with their signatures; however, signatures must not insult ethnic groups or religous groups. Removal of political signatures is at the discretion of Justmommies administrators.

Memebers may include photos of stillborn babies in their signatures. These signatures are generally used on the pregnancy loss section of our forums but may be used on other forums on the site. If you are not comfortable viewing such photos, please turn off signatures at Justmommies. If you need help with doing this please contact an administrator or send an email to boards@justmommies.com

Business Signatures:

All business links must be sponsored links. If you would like to advertise your business and help support Justmommies, you can purchase a signature sponsorship. This is a one time fee. Once you have paid for your siggie sponsorship you can include your business in your signature indefinitely.

Text Link Sponsors: If you would like a text link of your business in your signature there is a $10.00 fee. Text links will be limited to fifty words of text. To pay for your text link please go to our signature advertising page.

Image Sponsors: If you would like to have an advertisement in your signature, there is a $20.00 fee. As an Image sponsor you can include a 125x125 pixel advertisement of your site in your signature or you can incorporate your business identity into your own personal signature. If you choose the personal signature option, you must have a signature and not just an ad. Please get approval before you post your new signature. To pay for your image ad please go to our signature advertising page.

Board Guidelines

You must be at least 16 years old to register for our forums

Users of our boards must not:

Use vulgar language, any derogatory racial or religious comments, or any content that is illegal. We do not allow profanity on our forums. This includes disguised profanity. For example, the word b**ch is considered the same as posting the actual word. Any posts containing profanity will be edited or removed.

Post links to pornographic material. We do not allow pictures or links to pictures with nudity. (Exclusions include pictures of birth stories or pictures for educational purposes, must have prior approval from a moderator before posting).

Attack other members through posts on the board, email or private messages. We do not allow name calling, harassment or personal insults. You may express opposing view points but we want our members to feel safe from abuse. Please take the time to read your posts before you hit the post button and make sure that your posts are worded in a respectful nature. Posts that are not respectful, rude or insulting to other members will be removed.

Use our forums for recruiting members to other forums. This includes posts, emails, or pms saying “email me” or “instant message me” in the context of recruiting members to another forum. Justmommies is an open community. Members are welcome to post on other sites but we do not allow members to use Justmommies to poach members for another forum site. User must not post links to competing forums. You may post links to helpful articles or informational sites.

Pot stir or post disruptive posts on the forums. Justmommies is a supportive community. We do not allow members to post disruptive posts on the forums. Any posts that are made simply to “stir the pot” or be disruptive will be removed.

Troll on our forums. We do not allow multiple accounts to be registered at Justmommies (without administrators permission). We do not allow impersonating another member’s identity, stealing photos from others, or fictitious posting.

Post “mod/admin bashing” topics. Any topics insulting or antagonizing the moderation team at Justmommies will be deleted. If you disagree with a moderation decision, you may send a respectful private message or email to an administrator expressing your concerns. If you choose to send profanity, personal insults, or any other abusive messages to an administrator or moderator your account will be permanently banned from Justmommies. Justmommies is a friendly community and we will not tolerate abuse of our staff.

Post any spam, solicitations for money, charitable causes, or other products including diapers, formula, coupons, etc.
