You've got a horribly one sided way of looking that this Seff. The rules are there for a reason. The one about multiple accounts, which you seem so fixated on, is there for the developer and staff to deal with people who fix games, playing on multiple accounts at the same time. It happens, and its really infuriating. The rules allow staff a valid reason to deal with these people abusing aspects of the game. They're broad enough to allow staff to deal with people who abuse the game. The fact that you are given a full list of the rules, and how they will be reinforced, is better than some of the other sites I've played on.
I'm really not too sure why you're all fighting so hard against these rules. They're basic codes of conduct expected of the member base, and they're enforced much more vigorously on other sites. They're the kind of thing that is expected of ALL people. If you act abusively to people face to face, there are repercussions. This shouldn't change when you're interacting with people online. Just because there is a certain amount of anonymity online doesn't give anyone the right to act abusively, or break the rules society puts down.

How pathetic of you to use that card. Lopdos made a great game. He's been good enough to allow people who dont pay nearly all the features that those who do pay get (and even then, though you cant make large maps with the map editor, you're allowed to use them). Most other developers wouldn't be that generous. So dont try to abuse his kindness by trying to counter his equally 'very valid point' by threatening to withdraw your potential custom.
