Terms and conditions

I just decided to read the TOC a bit more closely and noticed this nasty piece of work:

Quote:
Please note, that because of the threaded conversation-like nature of discussion boards, we reserve the right to refuse a users request for a mass delete of their own posts or a deletion of their account. This includes images and attachments. That is to say, at the time that a member posts any contribution on the forum, they immediately waive all claims of copyright over that work for all time in relation to such contributions appearing on the IceinSpace forum, but not otherwise.
Mike - I do not believe that you can legally do this. A contract requires a signature. Please show me where you have my signature for this. Copyright is copyright and must be adhered to, based on the wishes of the owner of the said item.

Of course, I expect Mike (or one of the other mods) to remove this thread or ban me (or both) for daring to bring this up. So be it. After my recent temporary ban, IIS has left a bitter taste in my mouth, and it is no longer a place that I enjoy or find useful.

I am contemplating whether to force the legal removal of my posted images and written content from IIS. I believe that I have rights, and that IIS, or no other has the right to interfere with those rights.

There, said and done.

Dave
