To request an account you don't actually have to read the ToS, you
just have to tick the box that says you did.  Are you saying you're
concerned that there are no terms of service at all and would like
them filled in?

On any wiki using MediaWiki, you can always find the admins on this page:

http://wiki.minnowboard.org/index.php?title=Special:ListUsers&group=sysop

In this case, the admin you'll want to contact is warthog9, although
he will likely respond to this email.
