• Account Suspension: Upon the receipt of a credible and validated complaint, the Site may also elect to immediately suspend the membership of the user implicated in the abuse. Suspension serves as a "Final" warning and will prevent the abuser from continuing their abusive "Spamming" behavior. The Site will evaluate each validated abuse incident on a case-by-case basis and impose Termination or Suspension at its sole discretion. The Site reserves the right to lift the suspension of a user at any time, at its sole discretion.

• Account Termination: Upon the receipt of a credible and validated complaint, the Site may immediately terminate the membership of the individual user implicated in the abuse.
