Conditions which I have found which we should have:-
1. Originality. It should not be rip off from some one other's work.
2. Copyright should be held by one posting not site.
3. Some condition from AC(associate content) which we can take:-

1. Defame, abuse, harass, stalk, threaten or otherwise violate the legal rights (such as rights of privacy and publicity) of others.

2. Post any inappropriate, profane, defamatory, infringing, obscene, indecent or unlawful topic, name, material or information.

3. Post files that contain software or other material protected by intellectual property laws (or by rights of privacy of publicity) unless you own or control the rights thereto or have expressly received all necessary consents.

4. Post files or content that contain viruses, corrupted files, or any other similar software or programs that may damage the operation of another's computer.

5. Advertise or offer to sell any goods or services for any commercial purpose.

6. Post surveys, contests, pyramid schemes or chain letters.

7. Download any file posted by another User of a forum that you know, or reasonably should know, cannot be legally distributed in such manner.

8. Restrict or inhibit any other User from using and enjoying any public area of the IBF.

9. Falsify or delete any author attributions, legal or other proper notices or proprietary designations or labels of the origin or source of software or other material contained in a file that is uploaded, or impersonate any person or entity or falsely state or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity.

4. Giving sources which you have use.
5. Material can also include analysis of news related to forum , reviews by user of products so that people who are not related to tech can post.
6. All the previous rules which is applied when we post.

One more point maybe considered.

HERE are the Contest rules for newly joined users(who dont get that thread)..........

Dear Friend, I am sorry that I could not post anything yet as I am not so much educated as these sublime people who could impart with any knowledge since they posses that knowledge. HERE IN MY CASE i AM SOMEBODY THAT LISTEN TO OR in this case READ THESE POSTINGS like the BLACK HOLE collecting ideas, knowledge so forth. Please remember that THOSE WHO WAIT AND WATCH DO, ALSO SERVE A PURPOSE.

Amara38, don't feel sorry.

Everybody can contribute. Your age is 70. Surely you must be having a lot of experiences in your area of specialization?

hey J4K, on ORKUT my age is 76, So,...............

Nice to see an elderly person join India Broadband. Welcome Amara38. Please feel free to post any article.

Contest is very good, I am in for it. Will participate when ever i can.

All the articles that I have recieved till date will get paid at the rate of Rs100 per article as a good will gesture

dont be disappointed if you havent sent any till now... Any articles that you send me before mid night today 00:00 will also be credited Rs100 per peice

So if you can write 5 articles by midnight and send them across then thats a neat Rs500 for you
The rules still apply.

Meet dilip has sent a lot of articles for example but a few of them are just 100 something words and will not be accepted... I am yet to check all of them.

Thanks
and happy writing


Remember if you send your articles by the end of the day today they will all be paid at the rate of Rs100 per article and there after the normal rates apply.

Bumper offer!!

I am going to watch a Movie wid my gf now, will try to cut the evening short (hopefully)...

I have a question regarding the topics covered under Contests. Can we have some articles beyond Technology related topics, I mean something in general terms like food, weather, place etc. It will give people like me a wider change to participate.

It totally understand that this is a Broadband forum and I will respect your decision.

What is the duration of the contest? 1month? has it started today?

Anyways, Best of Luck to all the participants.

hope ur pockets grow deeper as time goes by.

deeper and wealthier :devil:

I am in a unenviable state here. Whatever I know, is already posted here. Whatever I know more and not posted here, cannot be posted here because it is confidential information. And perhaps to most such topics, the interest would be minimal.
