• Electronic mail messages/ads addressed to a recipient with whom the initiator does not have an existing business or personal relationship or is not sent at the request of, or with the express consent of, the recipient;

• Messages/ads posted to Classified ad sites, Usenet and message boards that are off-topic (unrelated to the topic of discussion), cross-posted to unrelated newsgroups, or posted in excessive volume;
• Solicitations posted to chat rooms, or to groups or individuals via Internet Relay Chat or "Instant Messaging" system (such as ICQ);

ClickNearn.net may undertake, at its sole discretion and with or without prior notice, the following enforcement actions:

Account Termination: Upon the receipt of a credible complaint, ClickNearn.net may immediately terminate the membership of the individual implicated in the abuse. Termination results in the immediate closure of the account, the loss of all earnings, the forfeiture of any unpaid money on account, and a prohibition against any future membership.

Account Suspension: Upon the receipt of a credible complaint, ClickNearn.net may immediately suspend the membership of the individual implicated in the abuse. Suspension is intended to prevent the abuser from benefiting from their abusive activities by prohibiting the offender from pasting ads, accruing or receiving commissions. After a thorough investigation, if the spamming incident is verified, but does not rise to the level of a terminable offense, ClickNearn.net may (but is not obligated to) lift the suspension.
