Certain visitors choose to interact with Interstellar Messages in ways that require gathering personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information gathered depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, visitors who sign up for an account are asked to provide a username and email address.

Account Deactivation If you have registered on the Interstellar Messages board and no longer wish to be a member, you may request to have your account deactivated. To request account deactivation, please contact the Interstellar Messages Webmaster via mail@interstellarmessages.com from the email address registered to your account. You may also request account deactivation by logging into your account and sending a Private Message to an Administrator. You may reach an Administrator by Private Message or by using the Contact page. Account deactivation results in your username and email address being removed from the account, therefore disassociating your identity from the account. The deactivated account will no longer be accessible, and Interstellar Messages deems deactivated accounts permanently closed. Deactivated accounts will not be reactivated under any circumstances. Posts and threads made by the account will still appear on the Interstellar Messages board after the account has been deactivated. By registering on the Interstellar Messages board, you agree to these terms. Additional Registration Rules 1. You may not use your real name as a handle on the Interstellar Messages board. You may not use the real name of any other person knowingly, or for the purpose of impersonating that individual. Such behavior will not be tolerated on the Interstellar Messages board. Furthermore, using the same handle that you use on social media or other platforms is not advised. Remember that Interstellar Messages is a role playing community, and it is best to leave your other personas at the door. 2. Do not register if you think there is a chance you might want your account deactivated later. If you have any doubts, simply continue to post as an unregistered user. If you ask for your registered account to be deactivated, you will not be allowed to register another account, and you will only be able to post as an unregistered user in the future. 3. If you are easily offended by insults, crude humor and other explicit content, please do not register an account. The Interstellar Messages board is not intended for individuals of weak mental and emotional constitution. Posting Rules 1. No threats of any kind. 2. No personally identifying information. 3.
