Legal Agreements, Privacy Policy, Terms of Use

21 replies
Hello everyone,

Does anyone have any advice on where I can find some good Legal Agreements, Privacy Policy, Terms of Use boiler plates that I can tweek to my specifications and place on my website? I have a real estate investing membership site that I am launching and I'd like to have those disclosures on my site.

Thanks,

RJ

    Hi,

    Look in the sig of WF member kindsvater. I hope I spelled it right. If not I'll come back and correct the spelling.

        I'm just wondering why this thread was resurrected after 4 years with what appears to be a spam link.

        Edit: Forget "appears" - this spammer has several virtually identical posts today promoting his email catcher.

      Nope. The post that dug this out of the archives was deleted.

      Don't blame George. It's not his fault this time.

    That post wasn't spam. It was a valid answer to the OP question for legal documents. Although, I do realize this thread is old. I previously searched and found this thread for a similar question but did not find a satisfactory answer. I posted the link (no association) to help others who might stumble upon this thread. I was just trying to help.

      So, you had an answer and went searching for people asking the question. You dug up several old threads and posted the same thing to each. Seems pretty reasonable to conclude the goal of the posts was the link in a situation like that, not just helping out.

      We see this a lot. Ends up with the front page being bogged down by a bunch of old threads, all on the same topic, and all with the same suggested resource.

        No. I found this thread and others previously in searching for the answer, found and answer and reposted it to the thread so others would not have to experience what I did.

        As it turns out, even though you deleted my post in the process it revived your Dead thread, which actually proves my original point.

        Your elitism is what's not really helpful.

        I suspect you'll be deleting all the other links in this thread too, just so you can prove you are fair to all - right?

          Based on the posts I just entered your profile to read you don't seem to ONLY be here to spam. So, here is my advice:

          1- Don't argue with the mods or anybody who has thousands upon thousands of posts on this site while you have a handful. Can give a bad impression to others regardless of the context.

          2- If the only threads you can find relating to your current question are over a year old, be aware that spammers seem to frequently post to old threads with their links. I guess they spend so little time here they think it will go unnoticed that way. The mods have a big job keeping the forum clean for all of us and it seems a tell tale sign is the resurrection of old threads with links so I suggest you don't do that.

          3- Instead of posting your new found answer on an old thread, or in this case many old threads, why not make one new thread? Seems feasible, especially in light of what Paul pointed out to you about the front page getting bogged down with old threads.

          4- Don't spam links here.

          5- Remember to be thankful for and appreciative of the massive amount of free information here that you can benefit from because I can assure you there is no other forum like this one to be found.

          6- Don't spam links here.

          7- Try to be observant and notice the date of the thread your posting on. (Not easy to do, I'll admit) I doubt this place needs to resurrect any dead threads seeing as though there are over 100,000 in this area alone.

          8- Don't spam links here.

          9- Keep in mind every post you make is viewable at any time by any member and this is not a playground. Many very respectable and knowledgeable business people frequent this forum looking for their own answers even though they probably know more about IM then you or I combined.

          10- Don't spam links here.

          Just my opinions. Hopefully I was able to point you in the right direction.

            Just my opinions. Hopefully I was able to point you in the right direction.
            I'll admit I am a new member to the warrior forum and I do appreciate a couple of your points. I'm even a little flattered by your somewhat biased investigative work on my profile. But the basic premise of your post (intended to pass judgement) is flat out wrong.

            I'm not here to ONLY to spam - I'm not here to spam AT ALL.

            I may be a new member but I'm not new to the WF. Prior to joining I've enjoyed many years of the information provided here, which is why I completely agree with points #5 and #9. It was just last year that I decided to become an active participant and in part I did so as a way to give back. So, when I do post it is done with the intent to help someone else in the same way I have been helped.

            Let me be clear, I do respect what Mr. Myers has done for the community, though I disagree how this situation has been handled.

            The link I posted here and on two other similar threads pointed to a curated document repository with attorney drafted documents. Unlike the link Mr. Myers posted (which he may or may not be affiliated with - who's to know) after mine was deleted, it had many more types of legal agreements and wasn't being sold for nearly the same amount and unlike the (spam?) link in your signature it wasn't self-serving.

            The link was truly on topic, in context, and would have helped others (unlike these resulting posts).

            Yes. It was posted on an old thread but if I found this thread several times as a top search for legal agreements - others would too. Regardless of the age of a thread, members should be allowed to make relevant posts with out scrutiny. Otherwise what's point? These threads will be found from searches both within and outside the forum (I know firsthand) and when people arrive they should be greeted with relevant up to date information. If that is not an objective then maybe threads like these should be completely deleted after they reach a certain age.

            I don't expect you or Mr. Myers to agree (we are allowed to disagree) but before you put in me on your "list" or accuse me of being something I am not, you should consider the finer points you seem to be missing. If it was truly my intent to post spam, why would I come back here to defend my post? How many spammers do that?

            That was a rhetorical question. You don't have to answer. You may allow your thread to die again.

              Actually, you made duplicate posts on a number of threads to an anonymous appearing website that did not reference it being a repository for anything in particular, and the page required that an email be provided to proceed.

              It appeared to be a email spam collector.

              The mods will delete those links regardless of the subject matter of the thread.

              And plenty of spammers want to argue until they're blue in the face about their right to spam.

              If you don't want to look like a spammer then don't:

              - Resurrect ancient threads
              - Using duplicate posts
              - That contain links to other sites
              - Which appear to be email collectors to send even more spam.

              Because those are tricks attempted to be used by spammers here on a constant basis.

          Legacy3,
          the link Mr. Myers posted (which he may or may not be affiliated with - who's to know)
          Anyone who has paid any attention to my postings would know that I disclose any material connection to any link I post here. And I did in that case. My connection is limited to the fact that I bought the product.
          If it was truly my intent to post spam, why would I come back here to defend my post? How many spammers do that?
          Lots of them. It happens on a regular basis. People post things that are or appear to be spam, and then argue their "right" to post it, claiming it was purely intended to be helpful. And, in one way, some of them actually believe it.

          If you don't feel your product would be helpful to others, why would you sell it in the first place, right?

          Moderating decisions are made based on the posted rules and a few simple guidelines. The primary guideline is the question, "Would it be damaging to the function of this forum if everyone with motivation to do this was allowed to do it?"

          If everyone who had a product or found an answer dredged up multiple old posts to alert the world about it, there would be no continuity to the forum, discussions of current topics would be lost in the parade of largely self-promotional thread resurrections, and many of the members would bail out of frustration.

          This isn't some nebulous "what if" scenario. It happens all the time, and it annoys the hell out of people when a single poster fills the front page of the forum with multiple threads, all on the same topic, and all dredged up out of the archives. It takes time they could be spending learning something useful for their businesses, or giving helpful answers to another member.
          Your elitism is what's not really helpful.
          According to your horoscope, you have a bright future as a webtoon.

    The link I posted was NOT an email collector nor was it anonymous. It was posted on three threads. I did copy paste on two of them but I've done that before and have in turn been "thanked" for my posts by different people who found those places. Who knew that these posts would draw such a different reaction?

    I am not arguing about my "right to spam". Why would I do that?

    I am saying that what I posted was NOT spam to begin with and am arguing that what you are trying to portray me as is NOT true. I am NOT a spammer.

    I do appreciate your points and will take heed to avoid conflicts like these, even though I don't understand the third point. This forum and this thread are filled with links to other sites both in the signature lines and post body.
