Acceptable Use Policy
Because QuitNet clubs can be created by users and organized around any topic the users desire, their content is not managed in the same manner as the "official" QuitNet forums that have specific topical divisions. This does not mean, however, that 'anything goes' in QuitNet clubs. Adherence to our AUP (Acceptable Use Policy) is a condition of participation in clubs just as it is in all other areas of the QuitNet. Explicit content of a sexual or violent nature will not be tolerated, and personal attacks, harassment, encouraging relapse, and/or 'stalking' will be dealt with quickly and firmly by QuitNet staff. All complaints will be investigated and Q members caught violating the AUP will face possible deactivation and/or permanent banning from the Quitnet. In addition, 'commercial posts' of any kind are not allowed. Any post in clubs promoting a commercial website/product (whether smoking related or not) by an individual or organization that profits from the sale of that product will immediately result in the post being removed and the author being banned from the clubs. As with all other Q features, you must register in order to participate in clubs. Registering takes only a moment and will open up the QuitNet's personalized content to you.
