3.3. Proper Handling of Cards and Priority Treatment: The card and associated "Founder Priority" privileges (special respect and discounts) represent the Partner's recognition of the member, but they do not entitle anyone to use them aggressively for demanding special treatment, intimidating staff, displaying arrogant superiority, or violating venue house rules. Privileges must be handled in the spirit of dignity, gratitude, and civilized presence.

4.3. Prohibition of Abuse: Any abuse (e.g., forged codes, attempting to use screenshots, claiming discounts on behalf of others, or severe violation of the behavioral rules detailed in Section 3) will result in the immediate revocation of the card, permanent account suspension, and expulsion from the community.
