Green means this is a correction.
A
strikethrough means get rid of this part.
All corrections are made according to formal US grammer, to the best of my knowledge. You may leave out any correction you wish to make.
Also, I can't seem to find a good wording for this sentance:The occurrence of any disadvantages for a user resulting from server breakdowns, faulty programming etc. does not entitle the user to claim the recovery of his account's status before the occurrence.
Anybody got any ideas?I also humbly suggest the option of adding a clause that states that you reserve the right to delete any account at any time for any reason. You might also consider reserving the same right to block IPs. I just think it'd be a nice safety-net against incessant and illogical morons. Such a right may be implied, but I suggest stating it anyways, just to increase your percieved credibility.
Few! I spent a long time and stayed up late to get this finished. I hope it helps! ^_^
