3. IMMEDIATE ACCOUNT TERMINATION

AIRTAXI is a helping, friendly and forgiving Virtual Airline, but there are behaviours that will most likely result in immediate account termination, so we advise our pilots to take the following situations in consideration:

• Disrespect for VA Members and Other VA’s

We are here to help you enjoy your stay at AIRTAXI Virtual Airline, but we are aware that problems exist, so ask for our assistance or from other members to try and overcome these as a group. Members that are found insulting or denigrating other VA Members, be it ours or another VA in the Portuguese IVAO/VATSIM Division, will be warned and will possibly see their account terminated.

• Disrespect for the Community

We are all here to share this amazing hobby together, and when a member is flying online, he is representing AIRTAXI Virtual Airline. Avoid confrontations and unnecessary arguments, and follow the chain of command. These are our recommendations, as any members caught disrespecting, insulting or causing trouble in the networks and communities that we operate will be warned and will possibly see their account terminated.

• Advertising other Communities/VA’s

While AIRTAXI Virtual Airline is not an exclusive VA, and so everyone is free to fly for whoever they want, we treasure our identity and principles. We do not support or accept any form of advertising of other communities or VA’s, without explicit permission of a senior staff member. Anyone found breaking these principles will be warned and will possibly see their account terminated.

• Cheating/Exploiting

We have ZERO TOLERANCE for any members caught cheating/hacking/lying. This includes using external programs, lying about your age, reverse engineering our ACARS/Website to gain advantage,exploit, etc … Any member caught in these situations will most likely see their account terminated.
