TF983 Terms of Use

Task Force 983 – Terms Of Use

As dictated (grudgingly) by Captain Logan “Storm” Ward
TF983 — Operational Protocol Addendum (Public-Facing)

1.  Read This Before You Touch Anything

If you’re here, it means you’ve stumbled into Task Force 983’s digital perimeter.
Congratulations. Or condolences. Hard to tell.

By accessing this site, you agree not to behave like a muppet. That includes, but is not limited to:

  • Stealing content
  • Pretending it’s yours.
  • Trying to “improve” our intel with AI conspiracy theories,
  • Poking around in restricted sections like you’re on a reconnaissance course you didn’t pass.
  • uploading anything cursed.

You break it, you buy it.
You hack it, you meet Rhys.
You annoy us, you meet Pam.
Choose wisely.

2. Intellectual Property (Big Words, Simple Rules)

Everything you read here — stories, characters, worldbuilding, artwork, Twigs’ personnel file — belongs to the author.
Not you.
Not your mate Dave.
Not the two blokes in the pub who think they could “write this better.”

You may, however:

  • Share links
  • Laugh at the banter
  • Send compliments (acceptable)
  • Send complaints (ignored)

You may not:

  • Copy, republish, rewrite, or repost content without permission
  • Feed it into a data-harvesting algorithm
  • Print it out, bind it, and try to sell it at a craft fair (yes, that happened to someone once)

3. Behaviour Expectations

This site is a drama-free zone. Mostly because I won’t tolerate it.

If you engage in harassment, trolling, abuse, or otherwise act like the kind of person Colin from Signals would side-eye…
you’re out.

The ban hammer is swift. And accurate.
I’m a sniper. Do the math.

4. External Links & Classified Shenanigans

Sometimes the site might link to other places — research, resources, or things Sean swears are “helpful” but are clearly just golf videos.

I’m not responsible for what happens once you leave the perimeter.

  • You click.
  • You wander off.
  • You end up buying a tactical cat harness.

That’s on you.

5. Changes To These Terms

These Terms of Use may be updated without notice, usually because the author comes up with something clever at 2am or because Rhys insists on “precision language.”

If major updates occur, I’ll announce them.

If minor updates occur, assume I got bored and edited something.

6. Contact Protocol

For questions, clarifications, or praise:

  • Use the site’s contact form.
  • Keep messages concise.
  • Don’t call me “Stormy”.
  • Don’t send unsolicited manuscripts unless you enjoy disappointment.

And remember:
Your message may be reviewed by the cat.
She has veto power.

Signed in accordance with Veyr’s orders and my own questionalbe judgement:
Effective Date: December 1, 2025
“Submit story ideas at your own risk. I’ve got range.”
