KrazyHorse and Ming writing site rules

This site displays airline traffic in some way (haven't joined, so don't know how) http://radar.piopawlu.net/

Their rules are quite clear :

# Users can only use the service with the software provided by its owners. Failure to obey this rule will result in permanent termination of the account.

# Each account is designated for one person only. Sharing login details with 3rd parties will result in termination of the account. One person can have one account only!

# The radar.piopawlu.net web service is compatible with Firefox 2/3 and Safari browsers only. Please do not ask why it does not work under IE or Opera, otherwise your account will be closed.

# The Google Maps based radar screen does NOT require refreshing the page. You can only refresh the page once per 5 minutes. Users found refreshing the page more often will be banned for 90 days.

# Availability of the each SBS-1 receiver is variable and depends on many factors. Please do not report unavailability of the individual receivers as their owners are notified automatically.
Reporting inactive receivers and/or asking why they do not work will result in account termination.

# Radar.piopawlu.net creators reserve the right to suspend or discontinue the service at any time without prior notice for any reason. Similarly any account can be deleted or banned at any time without prior notice or post explanation.

Failure to register will result in termination.

Registering will result in an immediate lobotomy and a raid on all accounts of the person registering.

Don't forget the death threat.

I feel like flooding them with questions about getting service to work on Opera or IE.

I can just hear the discussion among the developers now. "So should we worry about compatiblility with IE", "quick vote around the room, who uses IE", "not me"."not me"."not me"."not me"."not me"."not me"."not me"."not me"., well I guess no one uses it so we shouldn't worry about it.

[BlackCat]

Yeah, specially if their contracts are made in same way

people use IE for things other than downloading firefox?

My procedure when setting up a new computer:

1) Enter name, date etc
2) Update virus protection
3) Download Firefox
4) Delete as many of the IE icons as possible so I don't start it up by mistake
