StickyII. Nature of the China DOS Union
The China DOS Union is an internet-based, loosely voluntary organization established spontaneously by DOS enthusiasts. It is a non-political and non-economic organization composed of all joining members (individuals and personal websites), aiming to research, popularize, and develop DOS.
"China" here refers to a broad, non-political or regional concept. We welcome any DOS enthusiasts who use or understand Chinese to join. Of course, using non-Chinese languages is also allowed as long as it does not interfere with communication.
The DOS United Forum is the central base for the activities of union members. Basically, all registered members of the forum are regarded as joining members.
II. Goals of the China DOS Union
The goal of the DOS Union is to promote DOS in the Chinese community, popularize DOS, and advance the development of DOS. Ultimately, it aims to promote the development of computer applications and levels among the Chinese people and enable computers to better serve our national interests. The China DOS Union does not exclude any non-DOS operating systems or any non-Chinese languages.
III. Relationship between the Union and Members
The relationship between the union and joining members (individuals or websites) is a loose cooperative relationship rather than a general subordinate relationship.
The union never seeks economic benefits, and it does not allow joining members to seek illegal economic benefits or infringe upon the legitimate rights and interests of others. It does not allow members to have words and deeds that violate laws and traditional morals. Members who seriously violate principles will be expelled and condemned. However, since the union does not have real binding force on members, the union does not make any form of commitment or guarantee for the actions of any joining members at any time.
IV. Political and Legal Issues Related to Union Members
The China DOS Union is a non-political organization and does not seek any political benefits, which is for security considerations.
The union does not inquire about the political positions of any members or non-members, and it does not require members to agree or oppose certain political views in any way (explicitly or implicitly).
Therefore, for the security reasons of the union, especially the forum, we require that members' posts must not violate the laws and regulations of the Chinese mainland, and joining websites must not publish politically articles that seriously violate the laws and regulations of the Chinese mainland.
We very much hope that the DOS Union can achieve the goals in the second point. However, the primary condition is that it first needs to exist. Please understand this, friends.
V. Code of Conduct among Members
In the China DOS Union, all members are equal. Members should respect and understand each other.
The moderators of the forum are served by enthusiastic enthusiasts, who voluntarily undertake the management work of the forum. Members who have any objections to the behavior of moderators can express their opinions in the specific community (Opinion Feedback & Netizen Communication).
Members who have the following behaviors will be regarded as unwelcome. Those who are serious will be subject to penalties such as post deletion, criticism, ID blocking, etc.
① Using uncivilized, immoral, vulgar, or rude language, using dirty words randomly, and refusing to accept criticism and correct.
② Publishing articles and posts that seriously contradict the laws and regulations of the Chinese mainland, which may endanger the security of the forum or even the union.
③ Using serious insulting or discriminatory words against other members, or randomly attacking and abusing other members, creating disunity.
④ Deliberately using dialect words to flaunt oneself, promoting localism, etc., with the suspicion of seriously insulting or discriminating against other members.
⑤ Posting too many and random posts, wasting resources.
⑥ Moderators misusing management power, deliberately targeting and suppressing other members.
⑦ Using various methods to seek improper political or economic benefits for oneself under the guise of the union and damaging the reputation of the union.
⑧ Other behaviors that may endanger the security of the union and the forum or create division.
VI. DOS Union and Copyright
The union acknowledges that it has cited materials or software that are not of its own copyright, but it states that it is not used for commercial purposes. If you think that the union or its members have infringed upon your copyright by citing your software or materials, please inform the union. The union (or joining members) will delete them as soon as possible.
For the software or materials of its own copyright, the union welcomes other individuals or websites to cite them, but they must be noted with the source.
VII. Management of the DOS Union (This has never been implemented, but it is temporarily not changed)
The management of the union adopts the way of council management. 5-10 members are selected from joining individual members as council members, who are responsible for the management and operation of the union. The council will handle divergent opinions in accordance with the principle of minority submitting to the majority. Council members are re-elected by members every year.
VIII. Other Supplements
The DOS Union welcomes individuals, units, etc. to provide non-monetary sponsorships such as website space, FTP space, message boards, forums for the union or its members.
After reading this post, just abide by it, no need to reply. If there are replies, they will be deleted uniformly and points will be deducted. Thank you for your cooperation!
