Default Any tips for writing a TOS?

I've been reading a variety of TOS on other sites, and I'm trying to get advice now as there are some things I don't want to do, yet make sure I'm covered legally. Many TOS are written to cover every kind of mishap, and written with a negative slant. While I know one has to cover oneself legally, can anyone give tips on how to do this without also coming across like a jerk? Any recommendations on some TOS I should view, provided you don't mind me incorporating some of that into my own (I'll try to change it up, and I have some ideas of what I do want to include for my own stuff, like absolute copyright over my own art).

Well, first start off with the basics, think to yourself, what do you want people to know? They should know not to use the art for their own commercial purposes, etc. Also, you should include something about a Privacy Policy, meaning that you won't share any email, etc., details.
Also, be sure to include your credits, such as the hosting, crediting Mysidia Adoptables for the script, etc.

Wish I could help you more, but I tend to have the same problems XD

I finally made up a basic TOS, it is in no way comprehensive, but I'm hoping it's enough for now. Anyone is free to copy it and use it and add your own stuff to it. If anyone sees flaws in it (I'm sure there are plenty) feel free to let me know here, don't want to be dragged to court at some point down the road for trying to make something fun.

look for a tos generator and edit it to fit your needs.

I used yours, read through it, and edited it to fit more to how my site will run. Some were removed, some were added to.. I hope nothing is contradicting though xD.

I noticed a few typos while I was editing it, I don't remember all of them but I remember one of them saying something like "useame" instead of "username".. don't remember if there were more though, sorry.

Thanks, sometimes when I re-read I just don't see my typos, and it's a pretty bad flaw to have
