These are the
terms of use that every Member using the Indianapolis Adult Baseball League
website and individual team sites agree to adhere to. This includes chat rooms,
message boards and any other interactive areas.
Please pay careful attention to your choice of words. Communicating on the Internet is
different from face-to-face communication. Only the words are seen, no one can
see your facial expression or hear your tone of voice.
The words you
enter in passion or indignation will be there for you and everyone else to see
well after those intense feelings have passed. This is not meant to discourage
spontaneity; this is a reminder of the long-term effects of what you post.
