So, basically: "You can't run a server, unless it's a server-ish thing that most people use, in which case we encourage it." Really wish there was a clearer distinction they could make.

Maybe they're drawing a clear line at "legal and non-commercial"?




They should just say: you can't run a server that makes money. Of course, that opens up another can of worms...


They did:

"non-commercial purposes"


Note the word 'just'.

They explicitly don't allow commercial purposes. But that's not the full list of what makes something a banned server.

What is the full list? Hell if I can figure it out.
