Blogs and Public Posting Areas

MyWestSac does its best to ensure that information we post to this site is both timely and accurate. But the news changes over time and reports that were accurate when posted quickly become, well, old news. Though we may post follow-up reports, and may continue to provide access to the original report, as in an archive of news stories, for example, we don't go back and change the original report to reflect new developments. If you're looking for the most recent information on a given subject, and not the history of how the story unfolded, be sure you're not looking at an out-of-date report.

MyWestSac encourages an open exchange of information and ideas. You can expect these areas to include information and opinions from a variety of individuals and organizations other than MyWestSac. However, we cannot and do not review every posting made on our blogs or other public posting areas. For this reason, if you would like to communicate directly with MyWestSac, please contact us at admin@mywestsac.com. You may read blog comments or other public postings before the MyWestSac Administrator does. For these reasons, we specifically disclaim any and all responsibility and liability for blog postings. We do not endorse or guarantee the accuracy of any posting, regardless of whether the posting comes from a user, moderator, or administrator. If you disagree with any material you find on our blog, we suggest that you respond by noting your disagreement in the related or appropriate MyWestSac Contact Us page.

Responsibility for what is posted in the blogs, forums, and other public posting areas on MyWestSac lies with each user -- you alone are responsible for material you post. We urge you to use your best judgment before posting personally identifiable information on any website. By using MyWestSac, you agree not to post or transmit any defamatory, abusive, obscene, threatening or illegal material, or any other material that infringes on the ability of others to enjoy MyWestSac or that infringes on the rights of others. You further agree not to disable, hack, or take down the MyWestSac site or to violate anyone's copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights. By submitting material to MyWestSac, you are representing that you are the owner of the material, or are making your submission with the express consent of the owner. Submitting material that is the property of another, without the consent of its owner, is not only a violation of this agreement, but may also subject you to legal liability for infringement of copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights. You agree not to use MyWestSac to advertise or to solicit anyone to buy or sell products or services, or to make donations of any kind, without our express written approval. You agree not to gather any email addresses posted to the blog or other public posting sites for any purpose.

MyWestSac retains the right to deny access to anyone who we believe has violated these terms or any other term of this agreement. MyWestSac also reserves the right (but assumes no obligation) to delete, move, edit any postings that MyWestSac considers unacceptable or inappropriate, whether for legal or other reasons. MyWestSac reserves the right to make such determinations in our sole discretion and will comply with the requirements of the law regarding disclosure of such messages to others, including law enforcement agencies.

Any material you submit to any blog or public posting areas becomes the property of MyWestSac and may be reproduced, modified, and distributed as we see fit in any medium and for any purpose.

You must be over the age of 18 to participate in the forums or blogs of this website.

Not all articles or blogs submitted will be posted on MyWestSac.  The administration team will read the submitted article and determine if it is appropriate for the website.  MyWestSac holds the right to refuse or accept articles.

  • Choose an appropriate subject line. Try to summarize the problem briefly in the subject, and elaborate in the message itself. Repeat the subject in the body if it will make things clearer. Do not use all caps and do not add false information just to get attention (e.g. ;read this or you will be arrested;). An example of a bad subject would be "HELP ME". A good subject might be, "Ribbon cutting for new store". Do not use a URL as a thread title.

  • No useless posts. This includes: Thread bumping, useless one liners, Flame Wars, Trolling and Spamming.

  • Do not link to any site that contains adult content, sexually oriented material or might otherwise be considered offensive. Any post containing an inappropriate link will be deleted and the poster will receive a warning.
  • Do not link to another website that is similar in nature to this site. If there's another blog site or community website in West Sac, let them pay for a banner ad.

Failure to abide by these rules may result in an editing, negative moderation or deletion of your post. We reserve the right to ban abusers from the site. We reserve the right to change these rules at any time without notifying the users.
