Two questions about the utility warning. First: while the original EULA clearly forbid map packs, the new one is not so clear cut.  Check out the logic at [http://www.vidiotmaps.com/faq.php?q=eula | http://www.vidiotmaps.com/faq.php?q=eula].  I think the case for legal map packs is a good one.

Two: Neither I, nor anyone I have talked to, nor anyone who has responded to an RFC in my fora has ever even heard of a one-day ban for map use.  Is there anyone who has first-hand knowledge of the ban (ie, was in the ban), and was directly told it was for map use?

<.< is it okay to put any links on here? as in, sg ones?

RFC

I was looking at the edit history, and saw some editing by a fellow fan-site admin that strikes me as fairly petty. I'm going to recuse myself from any changes - either to his sites or mine. I don't want to get dragged down. But if one (or more!) neutral editors could step in, take a look, and make their own decisions, I would appreciate it. The diffs are most easily seen via [[1]]

Utility Warning

Two questions about the utility warning.

First

While the original EULA clearly forbid map packs, the new one is not so clear cut. Check out the logic at | http://www.vidiotmaps.com/faq.php?q=eula. I think the case for legal map packs is a good one. --Sapph

The warning is a little long, maybe shorten the one mid-article and put the original long one at the bottom, like so:--Konoko 16:19, 8 June 2007 (EDT)

Important Note:
Use of third party applications which modify the game client files in any way are forbidden by the EULA and Terms of Service. To date, only one large scale action has been taken against such violations. (In Issue 2, users were datamined to determine use of Vidiot's map pack, and hundreds of users were given one-day suspensions.) No actions have been taken since, but this does not guarantee such actions, or more severe actions will not be taken in the future. These applications are not endorsed by the Paragon Wiki, and users use them solely at their own risk.

Two

Neither I, nor anyone I have talked to, nor anyone who has responded to an RFC in my fora has ever even heard of a one-day ban for map use. Is there anyone who has first-hand knowledge of the ban (ie, was in the ban), and was directly told it was for map use? --Sapph
