This has little to do with programming, but appeals to the paranoiac lawyer inside of us.

A question on your multiplayer. Why wouldn't the developer be able to ban someone? Can't technically a developer ban someone from multiplayer for whatever reason they feel like? There is no legal obligation to let someone play multiplayer, is there? As long as the ToS was something as simple as "Developer reserves the right to ban whomever it pleases from multiplayer"
If these are the terms of service, you would be able to ban anyone for no reason. But doing that is a liability in itself, as any type of action that could, by any degree, be considered discrimination can bring trouble; a lot more than a Terms of Service that defines rights and wrongs, and gives a real reason when applying suppressive measures."Developer reserves the right to ban whomever it pleases from multiplayer"
Right on. I never noticed how misleading the LGPL is. It's all like "you can link this library with commercial apps" but then there's clause 6A.
I like the Zlib/BSD/MIT licenses too. Non-viral open-source with no warranty, that's it. The GNU people say this undermines their movement, but in practice the main reason I contribute patches to existing libs is because I'm using them in commercial projects and I don't want to re-patch every time I upgrade!
