Microsoft/Mojang delaying/blocking names.

Hi! So I did some extensive research for multiple websites. Links will be near the information. However I belive that this may be a accident. However the Snipers (Skills, chearfuls, and the .co) are all making money off of, well minecraft. However sniping is NOT against the EULA or TOS, However selling snipes is against the TOS. So maybe it is mojang stoping the sale of snipes. (https://account.mojang.com/documents/minecraft_eula , https://account.mojang.com/terms). So, Mojang is trying to stop incoming profit for sniping websites. I will update with more info.

Where does it say you can't sell snipes?

However selling snipes is against the TOS.

That is obsurd. The EULA states that you cannot sell anything they have made. A sniper is just a program that sends HTTP requests just like a browser. Is it against the EULA to sell a web browser? I think not.

If it was against the EULA to make money off of minecraft, they would've taken down this website long ago.
It's against the EULA to make money with either their code/assets as sold products (instead of your own skills), and to make money through any sort of pay2win or pay to get advantage system. It's still allowed to have a pay2play system, but it must be stand-alone from any free server you may have.
