Dunk Mujunk RestlessSpirits 280	Posted - 2013.11.24 10:04:00 - [1] - Quote You open the note and begin to read..... DUST 514-« END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT Thank you for your interest in the DUST 514 interactive online game ("DUST 514" or the "Game"). DUST 514 is offered by CCP hf ("CCP"), a company based in Reykjavik, Iceland dedicated to the creation of next generation games. DUST 514 is a multiplayer role playing game that allows the simultaneous participation of players around the world, interacting in the same game environment. You may play DUST 514 by downloading and using CCP's proprietary software (the "Software"). Using the Software allows you to log into CCP's client system (the "System") and interact within the game environment created by CCP. CCP also operates the game EVE Online, which interacts with DUST 514 and is run using the same System. To play DUST 514, CCP requires that you review and agree to the following terms and conditions of this End User License Agreement ("EULA"). This EULA describes the terms and conditions under which you may (i) use the Software; (ii) subscribe to, access and use DUST 514, and (iii) access the System. CCP may amend this EULA from time to time by posting an amended version at http://www.dust514.com/eula/ and/or notifying you when you attempt to log in to the System, as set out in Section 13 below. If you accept this EULA, the then-current version of this EULA shall apply each time you access the System or play DUST 514. By clicking the "ACCEPT" button (or if you bypass or otherwise disable the "ACCEPT" button, and still access or otherwise use the Software, the System or the Game), you accept the terms and conditions in the EULA. If you do not accept the terms and conditions in the EULA, you should click the "DECLINE" button, and you must discontinue use of the Software and not access the System or use DUST 514. SCEA Purchase and use of items are subject to the Network Terms of Service and User Agreement. This online service has been sublicensed to you by Sony Computer Entertainment America. SCEE Any content purchased in an in-game store will be purchased from Sony Network Entertainment Europe Limited (GÇ£SNEEGÇ¥) and be subject to Sony Entertainment Network Terms of Service and User Agreement which is available on the PlayStation-«Store. Please check usage rights for each purchase as these may differ from item to item. Unless otherwise shown, content available in any in-game store has the same age rating as the game. REQUIREMENTS TO PLAY To play DUST 514, you must: (i) download a copy of the Software to an authorized gaming console system; (ii) establish a valid account within the Game (an "Account") and keep that Account active by paying any Fees on a timely basis; (iii) obtain and maintain your own Internet access that has sufficient bandwidth to play the Game (Internet access is required to play DUST 514; CCP is not responsible for your access to the Internet); and (iv) comply with this EULA.
Dunk Mujunk RestlessSpirits 280	Posted - 2013.11.24 10:05:00 - [2] - Quote YOUR ACCOUNT You may establish only one (1) Account for each copy of the Software licensed. However, an Account will be permitted to have multiple characters stored within the Account. If you wish to establish another Account, you must obtain another license for the Software by downloading such license from CCP. A. ESTABLISHING A NEW ACCOUNT Only an individual, who is a natural person who has reached the legal age of majority in the jurisdiction where he or she is domiciled, may establish an Account. You are responsible and liable for all activities conducted through your Account, regardless of who conducts those activities. Children under the legal age of majority may use an Account established by their parent or legal guardian, provided the parent or legal guardian completes the registration process to establish the Account. Upon establishing the Account, such parent or legal guardian may share or otherwise allow their minor child to use the Account. You are not permitted to share your Account with a person under the legal age of majority who is not your child or for whom you are not the legal guardian. Upon sharing or otherwise allowing use of an Account by a minor child, the parent or legal guardian assumes full responsibility and liability for all obligations under the EULA, and for all activities of the child using the Account, including without limitation all items purchased under the Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, parents and legal guardians may find the content in DUST 514 inappropriate for any child under the age of thirteen (13). Except as noted above for parents or legal guardians sharing an Account with their minor child, you may not share your Account with anyone, or allow anyone other than you personally to access or use your Account. Joint or shared ownership or use of an Account by more than one user is prohibited. Accounts may not be used for business purposes. Access to the System and playing DUST 514 is intended for your personal entertainment, enjoyment and recreation, and not for corporate, business, commercial or income-seeking activities. Business entities and anyone who is acting for or on behalf of a business or for business purposes may not establish an Account, access the System or play DUST 514. Accessing the System or using the Game for commercial, business or income-seeking purposes is strictly prohibited. B. PASSWORDS AND NAMES You will be asked to select a password during the registration process ("Password"). Except as noted above for parents or legal guardians sharing an Account with their minor child, you may not disclose your Password to anyone or allow anyone to use your Password to access the System or play DUST 514. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your Password and for any damage, harm, lost or deleted characters, etc., resulting from disclosure of the Password, or from use by any person of your Password. You may not obtain, attempt to obtain, use or attempt to use the password of anyone else. You are responsible for remembering your Account information and Password. You will be assigned a login name and a character name during the registration and character creation process. Except as noted above for parents or legal guardians sharing an Account with their minor child, you may not allow anyone to use your login name or character name to access the System or play DUST 514. No player may use the character name of another player to impersonate or falsely represent his or her identity. You may not obtain, attempt to obtain, use or attempt to use the login name or character name of anyone else. You are encouraged to use a pseudonym for your character name, but you may not choose a name that violates anyone's copyrights, trademarks, publicity rights or other rights. Acceptance of a pseudonym by the System does not mean that your chosen pseudonym does not violate anyone's rights. You are responsible for any liability incurred by you, CCP or anyone else due to the pseudonym you choose. CCP retains the right to reject any pseudonym it determines, in its sole discretion, is unlawful, indecent, obscene, discriminatory or otherwise violates standards of good taste. C. INAPPROPRIATE CONDUCT / COMMUNICATION CCP may establish rules of conduct (discussed below) for players accessing the System and may, but is not obligated to, monitor and take action regarding inappropriate conduct. Nonetheless, it is possible that at any time there may be language or other material accessible on or through the System that you may consider inappropriate or offensive. You acknowledge that other players may transmit communications or content, or access to content, that you may consider inappropriate or objectionable. CCP does not, as a matter of policy, pre-screen the communications or content transmitted by each player and is in no way responsible for the communications and content transmitted by players of the Game or by players of EVE.

Any attempted character transfers are prohibited and void, and shall not be binding on CCP. A transfer or attempted transfer of a character is entirely at the risk of the parties to such transaction. CCP is not liable to any person (whether transferor, transferee or otherwise) for any acts, omissions, statements, representations, defaults or liabilities of the parties in connection with such a transaction. FEES AND PAYMENT TERMS When playing DUST 514, you may purchase items for use within the Game in return for specific item charges.

Fees may be payable in U.S. Dollars, Euros, British Pounds Sterling, or such other currency as stated at the time of purchase and are non-refundable unless expressly stated otherwise in the EULA. Failure to pay any such Fees will constitute a material breach of this EULA, and your Account may be immediately suspended or terminated at CCP's discretion. You are responsible for reviewing the Fees section of the Game for changes in the Fee or payment terms. If a change is unacceptable to you, you may, as your sole and exclusive remedy, terminate the EULA and close your Account as described in Sections 5 and 13 below. You are responsible for paying all applicable taxes and for all hardware, software, Internet service, and other costs you incur to access the System. Notwithstanding the foregoing, CCP may, in its sole discretion, waive any and all Fees due to CCP. TERMINATION; SUSPENSION OF ACCOUNT A.

CCP may communicate such termination to you upon 30 daysGÇÖ notice in any of the following manners: (i) when you log into your Account (ii) in a notice on CCP's website; (iii) via electronic mail; or (iv) in another manner that CCP deems suitable to inform you of the termination.

You will not be entitled to receive a refund of any Fees for a termination pursuant to this section.

Dunk Mujunk RestlessSpirits 299	Posted - 2013.11.24 10:23:00 - [18] - Quote Whew! Quite a stout read. While i'm sure 99.9% of people won't read any of this (i'm not even close to being finished reading it yet), I think it would be good for all of us to review what we have already agreed to by playing Dust. Sorry for the massive chunk of knowledge, just felt like the time to let it loose, ya know? Anyway, sorry again, now let me go check the reply posts that I am sure are bashing me lol.
Dunk Mujunk RestlessSpirits 299	Posted - 2013.11.24 10:31:00 - [19] - Quote Yes Badonk, thank god EULAs, which are binding legal contracts, are not considered law.
Dunk Mujunk RestlessSpirits 299	Posted - 2013.11.24 10:32:00 - [20] - Quote It was actually one of those huge roles of old school calculator paper.

Dunk Mujunk RestlessSpirits 309	Posted - 2013.11.24 18:32:00 - [21] - Quote Yes Scheherazade, I could have given a link. Because you would have followed the link to read the EULA. I'm sure you read this one here.......... One thread and i'm spamming the forums? By that logic your single post on this thread is considered spam. Should I be as petty as you apparently are and report you?
Dunk Mujunk RestlessSpirits 310	Posted - 2013.11.24 19:18:00 - [22] - Quote If they wanted to make Dust a cooking sim, that would be on them. Plenty of people, who have paid real money to play Dust, have left the game for various reasons, yet most of those people haven't bombarded the forums with post demanding their money back. I have personally already stated that I fully expect all my current BPOs to be taken at some point. Whether that will happen or not remains to be seen, but if it is for the health of the game I have no qualms with it. Sure, I posted the EULA as a statement, and many will not read it. But I brought it up due to one of the "CCP needs to change it's business practices" posts. And my point has been the one that is missed. If people would read the EULA, CCP is not the one to contact with grievances about in game purchases. That would be Sony Online Entertainment Europe. Bottom line, CCP more than has their butts covered. BUT, if some one was to try and take action, they would technically need to contact SNEE. But no, many others must resort to name calling (not you Munkey) and are only interested in a witch hunt. If they want to spout off on the forums about the evils of CCP, which is all fine and good. But the best way to get what they want is to actually use the proper channels. But since it's a beauty contest, not a real attempt to fix an issue, they parade around the forums screaming bloody murder
Dunk Mujunk RestlessSpirits 310	Posted - 2013.11.24 19:34:00 - [23] - Quote lol, I wish I was a CCP alt. I'd have a good job, wouldn't have to be going back to college. I'd also live in Iceland, which would be sweet. I currently live in the buttcrack of America, Homestead Florida. But no, i'm not a CCP alt. It would have served your forum offensive better to refer to me as a CCP lawyer. And if by "defending CCP" you mean i'm trying to get a select few to read the document they already agreed to, then yea, I guess I am defending CCP. If these few would follow the EULA, they could actually get their case moving by contacting the proper people about their issue. Instead they have chosen to grandstand and try to start a pissing contest here on the forums.

Nobody will read it here, nobody would read it if I provided a link, and nobody will follow IWS's link he posted in another thread a bit ago. While I guess this thread could be considered spamming, it is 1 thread, and it is my thread. I was going to TLDR all the juicy points, but nobody will read that either. Unfortunately, CCP could send a legal team to the house of every person who thinks about downloading Dust, and have that legal team go over the EULA point for point, with fancy graphs and slide shows, but again, nobody would listen or care. I know I wouldn't. As I have said, I had never read the EULA myself before last night. But having read documents such as this before, I was not at all surprised by any of the terms and conditions in it. EDIT: Capitalism is a complex and sometimes dirty game. If people are flipping out about the EULA on a free to play game, they would sh*t their pants if they read the EULA/TOS/UA pertaining to any of the other goods/services they make use of throughout their life. Anyone seen the South Park Human Centi-Pad episode? Fits nicely within the current discussion.
