If you breach these Terms of Use
If you fail to abide by these rules when taking part in an Afasic message board, you will be sent an email which informs you why your contribution has been deleted or edited. This mail will also include a warning that continuing to break the rules may result in action being taken against your account or accounts.

This may include informing relevant third parties such as your employer, school or email provider about the infringement/s.

General
If there is any conflict between these terms and specific terms appearing elsewhere on Afasic then the latter shall prevail. If any of these terms are determined to be illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable by reason of the laws of any state or country in which these terms are intended to be effective, then to the extent and within the jurisdiction in which that term is illegal, invalid or unenforceable, it shall be severed and deleted from these terms and the remaining terms shall survive, remain in full force and effect and continue to be binding and enforceable. These terms shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of England and Wales.
