jwiechers 92 Posted August 25, 2012 (edited) Admin rules of Dayz , do not mean anything...this is a mod , not a game . There is not EULA to signed when we decide to host a server...just something that explain the general rules....I follow the most part of them...not all.I will never cross a highway because a rules tell me to cross it.And for the legal part...those rules are abusive , so Dayz administration will loose on a strict legal proceeding if it was a commercial game...at least where I leave in europe.I don't know where this comes from, but: you're wrong. Legally, there is absolutely no problem with the rules as they are set and while there is no document specifically called EULA, the rules and other auxiliary documents available as well as the specific process used to manage and process orders, the emails you receive as a hoster, and other texts on this forum make it abundantly clear that there are certain rules that form the basis of the relationship between server hosters and the DayZ Team. These rules may not always be very explicit and there are a few edge cases, but they are neither abusive nor would the DayZ team lose during legal proceedings. There is nothing illegal about anything the DayZ team demands of the server hosters and it specifically states that, to host a server, you have to order it through the DayZ interface and abide by the rules. You acknowledge this when you sign up, forming the basis for a perfectly normal legal contract. Yes, contract. There's also a contract if you sign up on these forums or any other for that matter, there are contracts or quasi-contracts all over the place that ask you for things or require them of you ...Yes, it would be very hard to enforce certain things due to the circumstances, but that is not the same as saying that the DayZ team would lose or is asking something illegal as a basis for the contract between you and them. Most people have no understanding of legal matters, which is entirely okay, but the real world is a bit more complicated and saying "I didn't know that the law said something else" will not generally help much.

khalimerot 76 Posted August 25, 2012 (edited) I was not very clear in this post , because i'm not quite good in english.but the fact is still that this "relationship" is abusive , because they do not provide me the right to manage my property .In such a case , it's like I was yelding this property to Dayz , and for this you need legal documents , All those auxiliary documents , and process management are still invalid in front of a judge.Perhaps i'm more clear in this post I don't know (at least my french friend understand what i'm trying to say ^^ ):http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/80161-admin-scans-player-gear-threatens-bankick/page__st__40#entry766247I'm still following the rules as I can, but as said before: don't ask me to cross directly a highway when there is a bridge above it. We just want to play fair and get rid of hackers. Edited August 25, 2012 by khalimerot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
