After having another read of the Tos it made me wonder:

In section 2 i think that warnings are important but it could be mentioned, it may not be required since situations can vary. What examples could be shown that does not require a warning and rather an instant action e.g. Spoofing to mascarade as a Dev staff?


In section 4 it states prohibiting of harassment could it add this protects the members of the Em8er community too?

In section 5 what are the 3rd party verification services is this just for payment?

In section 6 i was a little concerned with regards to any reason what if it was mentioned as specific reason.

In section 10 the Tos can be changed without notice anytime which i feel is unfair instead it could be that the Tos could change anytime and notice will be announced regarding the changes through an update.

Change without notice is industry standard
Perhaps it could be worded like this?

"We may revise these Terms at any time by amending this page. You must check this page, from time to time to take notice of any changes we make"

That to me sounds like you have informed them and protects the company!
