Rules for
Gateway To Friendship
Last updated March 2, 2008
Here
is a list of requirements that are mandatory for joining Gateway To Friendship:
1)Gateway To Friendship's membership is open to only WOMEN that are 18 years old or older.
2) Websites must be family friendly. Gateway To Friendship does NOT accept
sites that are a form of advertising or commerical sites. If you have one page on your personal site with a
product you are selling such as Mary Kay, Avon, Tupperware, etc. this is acceptable.
3) Members are accepted without websites when referred by another member.
4) Enrollment to our Mandatory Egroups (GTF-Announcements & GTF-Chat) will be processed
once your site has been approved or I have verified you submitting a members name.
5) GTF-Announcements & GTF-Chat settings must remain on Individual or Digest mail unless approved by Gateway's Owners.
6) In joining Gateway To Friendship you agree to display our current banner or button
on your website. This should not be a difficult task if you are proud of the groups
you belong to.
7) Joining Gateway To Friendship committees are NOT a requirement but participation in
monthly activities is. Non-participation after one month will result in your membership being removed.
8) Any member needing to take a Leave of Absence will be given up to one month. Any
more time needed, Gateway would suggest rejoining at a later time. It is the members
responsibility to notify GTF of their Leave of Absence so we can keep for our records.
9) Any member on bounce status will be removed from membership after one month. It is important to keep your mailbox checked
frequently.
10) No mass emailing to other members unless you have the other members consent. This
includes mailing lists, newsletters, competition requests, etc. If another member places
you on their listings without your consent, please email them requesting to be removed and if
you still receive, email us at our Gateway address and we will help with the situation.
11) Do NOT give out the username and password to our Members Section to non-Gateway members or share
any members info with an outsider.
12) Although most of us have other groups we are in, we will not tolerate any member
promoting another group using our GTF-Chat Egroups. Loyalty of our members
to the group should prevent this from happening. You may promote other groups on your
personal site. GTF-Chat Egroups should be for related issues to only
this group and supporting the members within.
13) The Gateway To Friendship Chat-Egroups and the Chatroom are for members ONLY.
These functions are here to have fun. They allow friendships to develop and supporting
each other through good times and bad. For more specific rules for our Chatroom and Chat-Egroups
refer to the below url:
Chatroom and Egroups Rules
14) Gateway To Friendship has members from all parts of the world. Each person
is entitled to their own beliefs and treated with respect. No member should show
discrimination on their websites or post in any function of GTF against someone's
religion, lifestyle, culture, or residency. Sites will be reviewed periodically to
see that this requirement is met. Sites that have any kind of hate material on them
will NOT be tolerated and is cause for immediate dismissal.
15)There will be NO stalking, hacking, cursing or any illegal activities in any
functions of Gateway. Any such activity occurring will also result in immediate dismissal.
16) You agree that if you are having a problem with another member, that you will contact
Gateway To Friendship. We do NOT foresee this as a problem but should you feel at any time
that another member has treated you unfairly or has harassed you in any way, please
contact GTF privately. We will not tolerate any smearing of another member and believe that
all things can be worked out if done correctly. This also would include gossiping. I assure
you if any problem occurs in the group, that it will immediately be addressed and any
that is involved will be treated equally. Debbie & Charo, Co-Owners address is below for your records.

17) When filling out the form to join, we need for you to provide your real ISP
server. You can use an alternative address to receive your mail but we require your
real ISP server for verification means only. We will use the one you ask us to use.
18) There are times when we find we can't participate as we once did and feel leaving GTF is the best option. If one month's leave is taken and you decide you have to leave you will be permitted to return if you leave on good grounds. To avoid leaving and returning repeatedly, each person will be allowed to rejoin twice. After that, membership will be denied.
These rules must be strictly adhered to and if they are broken then
the Owners will decide together, what action will be taken
by any complaints brought to Gateway To Friendship.
The url for these rules are included in your Welcome Package. It is wise to either
bookmark or print these rules for your own personal records.
Any questions or clarification of a rule can be sent to the Owners.
