Suspended AND I KNOW WHY!

MRNICEGUY4241989
MRNICEGUY4241989: I would just like to apologise to the MODS. I was suspended yesterday, and I couldn't find out why. Really desperate for answers I was researching this site, and came across the TOS (Terms Of Service) and I read that your unable to give out personal info in Public Chat, and I did just that not realizng I broke that rule. So I would 1stl like to apologize, and that will not happen again, but to avoid this happening again I was wonder if there is anything against sending this kind of info through Private Chat. I don't wish to be a rule breaker on this site, and I would rather know the rules than break them. I ask any Wire MOD to answer this question for me. Which is once again EVEN THOUGH YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO SEND PUBLIC INFO THROUGH PUBLIC CHAT, CAN YU DO THIS USING PRIVATE CHAT THX?

Spogg: I'm not a moderator but I'm going to answer your query.

The code of conduct states the following:

g. You will not post or transmit in any manner any contact information including, but not limited to, email addresses, "instant messenger" nicknames, telephone numbers, postal addresses, URLs, or full names through your publicly posted information.

This is all "publicly" posted and there is no where in the terms to say you can't do this in private. Basically, private inbox or private message.

I personally wouldn't recommend doing this, just for safety and also to avoid nuisance calls/sms etc.

Robot Seb: Hello! : Although Wireclub highly encourages users against posting personal contact information anywhere on Wireclub for safety reasons, if both users trust one another and are ok with exchanging that information in private messages only, I think that's fine as long as both sides give consent that it's ok.

If it's personal contact info that is mass-spammed randomly to several users, that would definitely not be ok though.

MRNICEGUY4241989: Ty for messaging me I really appreciate it, and to answer both questions Eagster, and Veronica I was in a public chat, but only 2 ppl were in the room me and the gal. Anyways Eagster she asked me if I had FB, and I replied yes, and she wanted to add me their. Just so I understand Seb if I was to make a bunch of friends on wire, and they all wanted to add me on FB, or wanted to text/ call me then thats wrong, and against the rules? I don't wish to continue breaking rules if I have a better understanding, and I do very much appreciate all the info im recieving, as well as the replies

Robot Seb: Hello! If it's to friends that is perfectly ok for sure because it's something that is ok to share with friends or someone that gives consent basically. If it were to a bunch of random strangers, that's when it's not ok for sure, like those email spam bots we all encounter from time to time. We usually try to remove those as quickly as possible to avoid you guys getting mailbox spammed.

MRNICEGUY4241989: Thats awesome to know. I read something about a year ago, and I was going to say something about it but then thought maybe things have changed since then.

Robot Seb: Since June of 2011, basically the entire site changed from the way it looks to the way it works. Just as this version of Wire was basically brand new having been created from scratch and was separate in many ways from our old site, we also had to revise and develop procedures and policies for all our new features and as each new feature is added to our community, we develop procedures and policies for that those as well and are designed to allow everyone to enjoy it without any conflict being generated.

In a sense, Wire is constantly expanding and evolving and things may change over time to benefit all the users.
