Hello folks, as you know the Global Agenda beta is under NDA. What that basically means is that if you're an alpha or beta tester you are not allowed to post media like screenshots and videos of unofficial in-game material. It also means that you're not allowed to discuss or mention things like specific game mechanics and functions that have not been officially released, outside of sanctioned beta forums.

Moderation action will be taken on GameReplays against posts or threads that contain material in breach of the NDA. smile.gif

However, you may disclose the Confidential Information in accordance with a judicial or governmental order; provided, however, that (a) you give Hi-Rez prompt written notice of such order so Hi-Rez has opportunity to seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy to such order, prior to disclosure and shall comply with any applicable protective order or equivalent, (b) you provide Hi-Rez with all reasonable assistance in opposing such required disclosure or seeking a protective order or confidential treatment for all or part of such Confidential Information, and © you disclose only such portion of the Confidential Information as is either permitted by Hi-Rez or required by the court, tribunal, governmental agency or other authority, subject to any protective order or confidential treatment obtained by Hi-Rez.
