Terms of Service

[Siejo]

I think this needs to be a popup when you start for the very first time and every time it is modified there after. Also make it with a mandatory scroll down before the accept button will work. I know the devs have a permalink on the login but there are way too many people who don't see it still. It has gotten a little ridiculous to see people daily offering to buy sell or trade accounts on a daily basis. When I tell 'em it is against TOS they say "Oh I didn't know that".

I think it's a good idea. A definite emphasis on only the first time after download and updates.

[Corpser]

i think there was once every time i deleted it and reinstalled it.

btw how many of those kids do you actually think read the terms of service.

i didnt...

till i joined the forums

i just pressed accept

[Tvis]

Players can't complain about not knowing the terms if they are forced to see them and accept them. As it is, we don't even have to look at it. If players see the TOS they then they technically "know" when/if they're doing something wrong.

[Siejo]

I think this will at least put it in front of their faces with minimal effort. Tapping that TOS button seems hard for some reason lol

[Wilddar]

I think this is a great idea, I 100% agree with it. You should be responsible to read the terms of conditions no matter what.

Exactly. At least people can't say "I didn't see any TOS" Make it in BIG BOLD LETTERS with arrows and blinking lights. hahahaha

We are all responsible for reading the TOS whether in its current location or if it is enlarged upon beginning a new account. Two populations you need to take into consideration: Children and scammers. Children are not going to read things like this and scammers don't care. I understand where you are coming from, but this has been going on since PL was released. Unfortunately, it will never go away no matter what the devs do.

Perhaps you are right but i'm thinking it may reduce the number of "Why was I banned? I didn't see any TOS" emails. Making a TOS pop-up like an EULA and a timestamp maybe would help them prove in fact the player accepted the terms. Just trying to be helpful anyways.

well, its stupid because if yoy want to buy other ppl's account their private information is in that acc

[Lowlyspy]

Or people could just use some common sense (surprisingly rare to find people doing this these days.) Tbh I haven't read the ToS at all except for a few clarifications I needed, I just think "hmm, should I be doing this?" It's kept me out of trouble thus far, no sign of failing anytime soon.

EDIT: Gah curse the necro-ness, didn't occur to me to look at the date -_-
