josh43701 Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 stating that by reading it, you consent to having your IM's shared or do they actually have to share my IM's first? i get so sick of seeing that in profiles and people that think they are above the TOS.

Phil Deakins Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 They would need to share IMs for an AR to be effective. Merely stating an intention to share is not against the ToS. I don't think that anyone who puts that in their profile is as stupid as it makes them sound. I think they put it there to wind people up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teagan Tobias Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Have some fun with them, make your own disclaimer... This is a disclaimer to void your ToS disclaimer whether you read it or not. And if you try to void my disclaimer of your disclaimer, then I void your disclaimer voiding my disclaimer voiding your disclaimer. I further make it impossible for your disclaimer of my disclaimer to void your disclaimer able to void my disclaimer. I wrote this a number of years ago, have not used it for some time, really had to look to find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceka Cianci Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Mine say's Disclaimer::If you IM me it gives me the right to all your RL stuffs ((EDIT:I had to go look at my profile again to make sure what mine said LOL)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amethyst Jetaime Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 This is my 'disclaimer' in my profile DISCLAIMER- Valid if read or not You can't join SL and then choose which parts of the TOS you'll follow by posting some silly disclaimer in your profile. If you think you can, you're just ignorant, so I'm stating to you clearly that YOU DO NOT HAVE MY PERMISSION to share any IM with me with anyone else. If you do, I'll AR you and you'll find out how worthless your dumb a$$ disclaimer is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucretia Brandenburg Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 I get a kick out of those disclaimers. I thought about putting a bumper sticker on my car in RL ... DISCLAIMER: If you're a cop and I'm speeding, this bumper sticker is here to inform you that I do not want to be ticketed and by reading this bumper sticker, you have now just agreed to let me go as fast as I want. I do like the disclaimer disclaimers posted, I've been meaning to put one in my picks forever :matte-motes-wink-tongue: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tari Landar Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Most of the disclaimers I've seen are pretty stupid. I'm not so certain a disclaimer in your profile denouncing others' disclaimers makes you sound any better than people with the disclaimers you're denouncing. I've seen some funny ones in profiles too over the years. I like when people add a bit of humor in them. But the whole "my disclaimer is better than your disclaimer because mine denounces yours and I will AR you" added in usually with some kind of threat or other vulgaritty....uh...I've never been fond of people that approach others in that way, regardless of which side of the fence they choose to reside. So, I laugh at those too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucretia Brandenburg Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 "When I read the disclaimer disclaimers, my impression is that the main intent, rather than a threat, is more to show just how absurd the original disclaimers are" she exclaimed about the disclaimers.

Oh, I'm sure some are, but they still read just as badly...which is why I laugh at them. I'm also fairly certain some of them aren't meant that way, and the people who wrote them just don't, or won't, see how silly they too sound. But then, I'm not a fan of threats either, sometimes even ones in jest make the person sound like a fool. Some people do seem to have a complex about the whole disclaimer thing. It's a battle that's been waged many times, and I don't see it going away anytime soon, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lynda Baran Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 As far as I can tell, there is no AR category that applies to STUPID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenni Darkwatch Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I use profile and picks as immediate, non-repudiable reasons to mute people. Such disclaimers typically cause insta-mute Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
