Terms and conditions
Ancient Brain
is a user-submitted content site where we encourage the sharing of code and resources
in a form of collaborative coding.
By using this site, you agree to these (hopefully reasonable)
terms and conditions.
You retain copyright
When you upload Worlds and Minds and resources:
- You retain copyright and ownership of your code and resources.
- Ancient Brain only claims ownership of the underlying system code and resources.
- Uploading to the site does not
imply permission for any 3rd party site
to copy your code or your resources.
- Tell 3rd party sites that, to include a run of your World on their site,
they can
use the embed code provided
(on the World and Mind pages).
You grant permission to Clone on this site
When you upload Worlds and Minds and resources:
- You accept that your Worlds and Minds may be cloned by users on this site.
- You accept that your resources may be referenced by other JS on this site.
Rules for cloning:
- Plain text code may be cloned and edited by other users on this site, provided that they retain the attribution at the top showing the cloning trail.
- Obfuscated code may also be cloned.
There are legitimate reasons for doing so.
For example, cloning an obfuscated
Teaching World
in order to
get a new scoreboard.
Or cloning an obfuscated Mind to use it in a
multi-Mind system.
-
In general, obfuscation means the author does not want others to edit their code.
Large scale attempts to edit obfuscated code are not allowed.
- Trying to de-obfuscate a user's obfuscated code is not allowed.
- A clone of obfuscated code must also leave intact the cloning trail.
Advertising and charges
Our goal is to make something cool and useful for the world.
If this becomes widely popular we will need to find a way to keep it running.
- We reserve the right to put advertising on this site in the future.
- We reserve the right to introduce charges for advanced use in the future.
Basic use will always be free.
But we reserve the right to charge for some advanced uses in the future.
(For example, heavy usage, commercial usage, obfuscation, extra features.)
We will always try to keep the free entry level
as functional as possible
while still being financially viable.
Liability
- It is your responsibility to check the copyright permissions for your uploads.
We are not responsible for copyright infringements by users.
We will remove content found to be in breach of copyright.
- Send copyright complaints to:
- Use of Worlds is at your own risk.
Users must
treat each World as a separate, unknown website.
We are not responsible for damage or other problems caused by malicious Worlds.
Users should never enter sensitive information into a World.
-
Send reports of malicious or misleading Worlds to:
