The surviving historical Tides Guide contains only a short statement of service terms, not a separate detailed Terms of Service document. The principles preserved here therefore remain deliberately simple.

• Use of Tides of War services is subject to the community rules, Code of Conduct, and policies published in this Guide.
• Tides of War may moderate content and restrict, suspend, or remove access when reasonably necessary to administer or protect the community.
• Tides of War does not guarantee uninterrupted availability of the website, forums, servers, or other community services.
• Community services and policies may change as Tides evolves. Material changes should be communicated to members when practical.
