"WITHOUT LIMITING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT, PROBOARDS RESERVES THE RIGHT TO, IN PROBOARDS' SOLE DISCRETION AND WITHOUT NOTICE OR LIABILITY, DENY USE OF THE WEBSITE AND/OR SERVICES TO ANY PERSON FOR ANY REASON OR FOR NO REASON AT ALL, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION FOR ANY BREACH OR SUSPECTED BREACH OF ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY OR COVENANT CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT, OR OF ANY APPLICABLE LAW OR REGULATION." Under 25(a) of TOS for which this forum is hosted under.... What does this really mean?

This is so sad, can we hit 50 likes?

It's the standard "we reserve the right to delete this because it's on our servers" type deal. The chances of Proboards actually deleting this forum is unlikely. There would have to be serious violations. I'm guessing many of them would be related to adult content and illegal activity. If Proboards went under without anyone to take over then this forum would be history along with all of the others.

The legalese makes it hard for people to understand. It's not really fair to confuse people with words like that but I think it has to be like that for legal purposes. There's probably a simpler version of rules & guidelines somewhere for people that didn't pass the bar exam.

Well, they've banned discussion boards before that had no adult content. I don't know the reason.
