Conditions
to Join
Welcome
to this page. Because you are here we know you are
interested in the conditions we have established in order for
you to join our family of friends in the Little Dragon Castle.
The following list outlines our policies and what we would
expect you to accept should you become a member of the Castle.
You do
not have to have a personal web site in order to be a member
of the Castle. Further you do not have to join the Web
Site Competition if you do have a web site in order to be a
member.
An
email address is required so that we might contact you and
announce our activities. Your e-mail address will be
kept in the strictest confidence and will not be shared with
anyone except those on the Staff with a genuine need for the
information.
All
approved applicants for membership will be invited to join our
Little Dragon Castle Heart of the Castle E-group which is unlisted
and not visible in the Yahoo Directory of Groups for reasons
of privacy. Joining this E-group is MANDATORY.
The Heart of the Castle
E-group is the Official Castle Roster. It contains the email
link to ALL the members of the Little Dragon Castle and is
maintained by the Owners. Only those applicants who have
been approved for membership are listed.
In
addition to the Heart of the Castle E-group those who are
approved for membership in the Castle will be invited to join
the LDC Main E-group. This E-group is listed and visible in the Yahoo
Directory of Groups. Joining this E-group is OPTIONAL.
For
approved members with no personal web page and only an email
address it is highly recommended that you take advantage of
the opportunity to join the LDC Main E-group. In this E-group we contact each
other and get to know who we are. It is the social
e-mail group we use for all sorts of things from recipes to
jokes to problems and just to share a small part of our
lives with one another and become friends.
Applicants for membership with a personal web site, once they
become a member, are encouraged to join the Web Site
Competition activity. Joining the competition is not
mandatory but is an option. In all cases however,
personal web sites are screened by the Court Justices for
compliance with the following conditions.
1.
Web sites whose express intent is the sale of products and
services are not considered personal web sites and shall not
be acceptable.
2.
There shall be no restriction on who may view the web site
pages. Requiring a visitor to join some club, or special
group is not allowed. Requiring a membership, to
post messages in a blog, forum, or some other communication
device, thereby limiting potential for SPAM content, is
allowed.
3.
All web pages, with the exception of those listed in Condition
2 above, must be accessible. Links from one page
to another must function properly.
4.
The web site owner is responsible for the content of all the
links displayed on their web site. The Conditions to
Join apply to those links as well they do to the resident site
content.
5.
There is no place within the Castle for pornographic content
to hide and take root.
4.
Profanity shall not be permitted.
5.
Anchor images (<img src="file name"> are required to display
for examination of content. Broken links shall be
repaired by the web site owner prior to acceptance.
6.
Nudity for the sake of titillation or arousal shall not
be permitted. We examine all drawings, photographs and
other images to assure they are in good taste and not
displaying a sexual environment. There are many examples
of such images found in various bibles and have been the
subject of great masterpiece themes in history.
Undoubtedly there are those who may think that any form of
nudity should not be allowed yet there are just as many others
that believe there is nothing objectionable in some forms of
nudity provided it is in good taste and not intended to
titillate or arouse. The Court Justices shall be the
final judge in accepting or rejecting images.
7.
Web site content shall be of a family oriented nature.
Portrayal of deviant sexual orientation, unorthodox religious
extremes, violence, or personal attack shall not be allowed.
Web site content, whose intent is to "sell" extreme views to
those of impressionable age shall not be acceptable.
NOTE:
The above rules are not all inclusive. They are subject
to revision at any time by the Owners of The Little Dragon
Castle. The Owners reserve the right to expand upon the
existing Conditions or to establish additional Conditions to
Join at any time justification for such action is found.
