1. That the use of aldhfn is a privilege which may be revoked by the administrators of that system at any time for abusive conduct. Such conduct would include, but not be limited to, the placing of unlawful information on the system and the use of obscene, abusive or otherwise objectionable language in either public or, upon registration of complaint, private messages. The System Administrator of aldhfn will be sole arbiter of what constitutes obscene, abusive, or objectionable language.
