With all the trolling that's been going on lately, I feel like the Terms of Use on MyCast need to be updated. The current Terms mention nothing about trolling or bullying. In fact, there's a lot more that should be added. Having discussed this with a couple of users, here's what we'd like to see in the new Terms of Use:
1.) Restrict the site to users 13 years of age and older.
2.) Users whose accounts have been banned should not be able to create a new account without permission from the MyCast staff.
3.) Attacks against other users and attempts to discourage others from using the site should not be allowed on MyCast.
4.) No user shall post content that contains hate speech against a person or group based on race, religion, ethnic origin, sexual orientation, disability, or gender.
5.) No user shall post content that is considered unlawful, threatening, abusive, slanderous, defamatory, obscene, vulgar, offensive, pornographic, profane, sexually explicit, or immoral.
6.) Under the Terms of Use, users agree not to use MyCast to troll or bully other users.
7.) Under the Terms of Use, users agree not to attempt or work to damage the relevancy or representative nature of votable stories on MyCast using tactics; that includes creating multiple accounts to vote on suggestions or adding suggestions for humorous purposes.
8.) Users agree not to spam stories.
9.) If a troll who was previously banned rejoins the site and engages in trolling for a second or third time (depending on how serious their actions are), their IP address should be blocked.
Feel free to comment anything else that I missed.
