It is very important that you (and your parents, if you're under 18) review the following rules so that you know what you can and cannot do on The Looking Glass Wars’s Card Soldier Wars website. By using this site, you and your parents agree to abide by the following terms and conditions:

The following basic rules must be followed:

1. The accounts, activities, items, crystal shards, characters, locations, games and card soldiers are for you to play with while on the site. Except as permitted by the functionality of this site, you can't sell them (for money or Crystal shards), give them to anyone, trade them for anything (including Crystal shards), or pretend you made them. You can display our pictures on your own personal web pages for your personal noncommercial use ONLY as long as you write either "Copyright 2006 Automatic Pictures, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Used With Permission" or "© 2006 Automatic Pictures, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Used With Permission" on EVERY page with our pictures and/or text and you link directly to us. By the way, this means that you can't sell ads, barter for stuff, offer your services, or otherwise earn money, Card Soldier Wars items, or Crystal shards either on web pages that contain our pictures and other Materials, or by using our pictures or other Materials, such as by offering to make Card Soldier Wars banners or backgrounds for others.

If there is anything you are unsure of about this, please contact us using this form and we will do our best to give you a quick answer.

2. All Wonderlander names, shop names, broods, content on the message boards, Screen Scrolls, Card Soldier Wars Messages (except Warnings!), come straight from other Card Soldier Wars' users, not from someone at Card Soldier Wars.com. If you see anything mean or nasty on the site, or anyone sends you anything that makes you uncomfortable or asks for your password or personal information (such as your name, address or phone number), please let us know immediately by using this Form so that we can handle it right away! However, reporting false abuse or inappropriate feedback will not be tolerated and will likely result in a frozen account.

3. All user content and communications on the Card Soldier Wars site is filtered and monitored. So that everyone has a good time, you understand and agree that you will not post or send through the site any words, images or links containing or relating to:

i. profanity, obscenities ("swear words"), sexual content (express or implied, including inappropriate acts with or by your Wonderlanders or card soldiers for "real" or in role play).
ii. dating requests or offers for yourself, other people, or your Wonderlander or card soldiers.
iii. attacks, comments, or opinions about other people or things that slander, defame, threaten, insult or harass another person.
iv. gangs, gang-slang, or the promotion of gangs.
v. chat rooms or links to sites with chat rooms.
vi. promotions offering prizes of any sort (including contests, raffles, lotteries, chain letters or any kind of giveaway)
vii. materials created by someone else without their express written permission.
viii. information that might identify another user (including posting a link to your personal guest book)
ix. material regarding political, social, or religious views or opinions.
x. links to or advertisements for third party commercial Web sites
xi. Wonderlander or card soldier names, account usernames, store fronts, or any descriptions or names that would be considered inappropriate under our Terms and Conditions.
xii. "cheats" or "hacks", or information or links to sites claiming to have these.
xiii. requests for user passwords.
xiv. requests for money by using your Wonderlander, card soldier, crystal shards or any other Card Soldier Wars property on third party sites or your personal websites. This includes Ebay.
xv. scams of any kind (including requests to users to change their email address).
xvi. "spamming" (repeatedly posting the same message) or "party boards".
xvii. anything that suggests it's from a member of the Card Soldier Wars staff.
xviii. trying to test Card Soldier Wars' message filters (or encouraging others to do so).
xix. other information that Card Soldier Wars deems, in its sole discretion, to be inappropriate for this site.

BEWARE: If you do any of the above we may freeze your account permanently or suspend you from using your account for up to 72 hours. Please note that depending on your account history and the type of infraction, you may be frozen or suspended for breaking the rules and that you WILL be frozen for multiple infractions.

4. Do not create any new Card Soldier Wars Wonderlander accounts if you are not going to take care of them. You cannot have multiple accounts just to get more crystal shards or items. You are only allowed one (1) account and can earn Crystal shards with only one (1) account. Users who break this rule can have all of their accounts frozen. Do not use your other accounts to attempt to gain an unfair advantage over other users by restocking, gaining trophies, etc.

5. If you cheat on Card Soldier Wars games or use cheat programs, including non-Card Soldier Wars software or programs, to play the games we will freeze your account. In addition, Card Soldier Wars may freeze any other account that has directly or indirectly benefited from the use of such programs.

6. If you write something that catches our eye on a message board, in an email or Card Soldier Wars mail, we might want to use it on the site or elsewhere when talking about the site. If you're under age 18, remember to ALWAYS check with your parents before you send anything to us or post anything on the site! By sending in your content and comments, you (and your parents) are agreeing that it's okay to repeat on the site and elsewhere what you say, and it's even all right for us to use it in an ad. So, this means we can use it in any way we want, anywhere, until the end of time.

7. You understand that, as part of playing on the cardsoldierwars.com site, you will receive e-mail from Card Soldier Wars that lets you know when certain events happen with your Wonderlander, your bid wins at the auction, etc. You also agree that occasionally Card Soldier Wars.com can send you special offers that you are under no obligation to accept. An example woulf be an announcement of the release of The Looking Glass Wars novel.

8. Attempting to gain access to someone else's account and/or account information, or trying to get other people's passwords is STRICTLY FORBIDDEN. Your account (Wonderlanders, card soldiers, shops, etc.) will be deleted and you will be permanently banned from the site.
