+freenode and financial transactions
+=============
+
+We appreciate that end users may sometimes wish to reward a project or a project
+contributor after having had a positive support experience in a project channel
+and it is great when this results in a donation to the project in question or
+perhaps a micropayment to the contributor concerned or the purchase of an item
+from the contributor's wish list. 
+
+Nevertheless, we would urge our users to carry out their own due diligence
+before entering into financial transactions of any kind and stress that any
+financial transactions entered into on the freenode network must be undertaken
+entirely at the user's risk and freenode accepts no liability for any losses
+incurred as the result of such transactions.
