I think it's silly to presume to know the mind of God if you believe in that sort of thing. The law, created my man, however will look down in you.

It's not a rule; it's advice. There is a difference.

It's very clear. 1 account per person. 1 person per account. Obviously SC doesn't really enforce these conditions of the ToS though and they make them very broad.

For example selling your account is covered by the same conditions and they do mind that.

You were the one to bring this preposterous analogy into the arguement.

Philosophy? The ToS is supposed to be a legally binding document that governs your use of the service. It's a contract

So you're trying to tell me the ToS and the 10 commandments do not contain lists of things you shall not do?

BTW i didn't mention them first.

So you are comparing god to supercell? I cant argue with you... Im done.

I wasn't, but I could. As far coc is concerned, they are one and the same.

I've never read the ToS, but I'd bet it says Supercell has the right to bend any "rule" they want. So if it isn't enforced then it isn't real. Just because it says it, doesn't mean they are obligated to enforce anything. They don't have to follow their rules.

Fair point. Considering the way the entire CoC community is collectively staring at Mohamed right now I'm actually kinda glad I'm just a lowly farmer no-one's ever heard of.
