    If you’ve already read the terms of service and there doesn’t seem to be a rule against it then most likely it’s not against TOS? I guess the onus is on you to read everything properly and make sure there aren’t any loopholes that can be used to ban you.

    Just because something isn't written doesn't mean it's not bannable or against tos

    On the contrary I believe that something that hasn’t been referenced to or explicitly stated in the terms of service can absolutely be done. The whole purpose of the terms of service is to inform the user of limitations, disclaimers, rights, and responsibilities. Now I agree that some parts of the TOS can be perhaps a bit vague to the point where you would be skeptical, but your situation seems rather specific. I wouldn’t worry about getting about getting banned. Playing it safe ain’t bad, just not nessecary for this case.

    Stuff has to be written, they can not write a few things and expect you to agree to it. That would be like making a list of rules and you leave out "no scamming" so then a guy scams another guy and gets banned. Must inform players everything they are limited to do .

    True but sometimes bannable things could be overlooked and be not included to some lists
