GENERAL FORUM GUIDELINES / RULES
SENSITIZE © is the operational forum and community messageboard for http://www.upstaterenegadeproductions.com an online community workshop for 18+ Adult Content arts, comedy, community activism, drama, filmmakers, journalists, e-poets, media / music producers, musicians, photographers and writers. We aim to bring these types of people together to create online activism, art, comedy, drama, entertainment, film and e-poet/music videos, journalism and new media writing - all genres.
Constructive feedback, guidance or help from our registered members is always welcome. In return, and in keeping with the tradition of collaborative / community arts, if any member of SENSITIZE © wishes to display work or notify the public of campaigns or events they are working on, we will gladly assist them with promotion. This must be co-ordinated through the site Administrator; Louis P. Burns aka Lugh.
We will happily add your forum or website address to our list of Activists & Sponsors / Friends of SENSITIZE © and acknowledge your assistance (where applicable) as 'Sponsorship in Kind'. We will ask you in advance before doing this and will respect any wish you may have to decline the offer.
Please note: that it is always advisable for members to keep a back-up of their work and, where applicable, register it as '©' copyrighted in the usual manner or electronically.
The whole ethos of SENSITIZE © is that we become more creative simply by expressing ourselves honestly, having fun, and interacting, while passing on skills and tips to each other through chatting or 'jamming'. We may also rub each other up the wrong way at times – we may ignore, insult or use 'bad language' – but this is understood to be an accepted occupational hazard of creativity and is viewed as healthy in the long-run.
Please note: While SENSITIZE © is frequently fuelled by the eco-friendly, harmonic, highly efficient and intoxicating fumes of zany comedy (it's a gas), we do have a committed and serious side to our work.
DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY

INDEMNIFICATION

The administration and management of http://www.upstaterenegadeproductions.com and SENSITIZE © may remove a member if they are seen to disrupt the creative and operational flow of the SENSITIZE © forum, or if they harass other members.
The private messaging facility on SENSITIZE © is no longer active for most members and is assigned only to a few selected members / people that Upstate Renegade Productions believe have worked with genuine dedication to our continued services. We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused anyone but it reduces the abilities of spammers or anyone seeking to destroy all of our continued good work and potential. This decision was not made lightly but came about because a certain member was harrassing other members by private messaging them while not posting to the forums that are visible to all members. We felt their actions were decidely unfair and frankly hostile.
If you wish to cancel your membership with SENSITIZE © please fill out our ongoing member status poll / survey - I Wish To Leave Sensitize © section.
We hope you join, stay and enjoy being creative with us.
