Mojang going to enforce the EULA

[KeithSt0ne]

Smurt... Though by sync player data, do you mean RedisBungee??

If you ever followed case studies for games with cash shops you would find out that only about 5-7% of your playerbase will make purchases.

Your donators would get pretty pissed when they end up on a server with very few players on it after donating.

My server had about 150 active players and generated 1200-1500 monthly and all of our donations came from the same 10-15 players.

Sorry if this is a silly question, I don't see you on the forums much, but what's your server?

I sold it a while ago, it was caversia.com[DOUBLEPOST=1457025229][/DOUBLEPOST]

Yes it is. A license agreement is a contract. If a party involved is a minor, the contract is null.

The parents are responsible for their minor child's actions, Mojang can sue the parents for damages.[DOUBLEPOST=1457025328][/DOUBLEPOST]

And thus Minecraft has the right to delete your server

Mojang has the right to not allow your players to use their authentication system for logging into your server.

They can't just have your server deleted, they may be able to persuade your hosting company to drop you, but that's not the same as deleting your server.[DOUBLEPOST=1457025404][/DOUBLEPOST]

You're really dumb. Mojang has no power to block a domain. That's what ICANN is responsible for, and ICANN will not do anything, since that particular domain name is not participating in any illegal activity. They can't ban you from their game. In other words, small server hosts dismiss themselves from responsibility. Most TOS state that it is the responsibility of the client what is hosted on the server.

Your server's host IP can be blocked by Mojang's authentication servers not allowing players to connect to it.[DOUBLEPOST=1457025486][/DOUBLEPOST]

Why are you so stubborn? As Jimmy said, minors cannot enter a legally binding agreement, meaning that they cannot take legal action against you.

Parents are responsible for their minor child's actions, Mojang could go after their parents for damages.[DOUBLEPOST=1457025547][/DOUBLEPOST]

Like?

They can't make OVH or whoever shutdown your server. And don't say, "OVH don't want problems with microsoft"

First of all, if I'm a minor, and that contract is void, they can't sue me for anything. They can't sue OVH for anything either, because I never agreed in the first place. Any method to take down our servers which didn't involve legal action would be illegal, and microsoft wouldn't do it. I'm not even going to get into the fact that microsoft aren't the government, they can't block all domains related to servers.

they could sue your parents for damages! I'm a parent, I know this!!![DOUBLEPOST=1457025721][/DOUBLEPOST]

Not to mention they really can't be bothered. As long as your server isn't going straight against their eula by being obviously pay2win (aka its not possible to compete without paying), they really aren't going to devote resources to shutting down all small servers. Initially we thought it may be because they wanted to promote realms, but they know as well as we do that realms is not comparable to actual servers. So they're going a different path.
Servers that break their eula in minor ways don't give them any sort of disadvantage. The EULA mostly exists to discourage servers from being openly pay2win, since Mojang wants it to be fun to play minecraft for all people, even those that don't have the money to buy donator ranks everywhere.
So really, not something to worry about

They will check servers that have been reported and all they need to do is plug your server's IP and block it from their authentication servers. What extra resources do they need to do this? It would take about 3 minutes to do the whole thing, check it then block it.

How much did you sell it for? I think I remember that server.

So here is what my response to Mojang will be if they approach me:
