Hello, everyone! It's your favorite Mage from Cypion, xRei. ;D!
So during the most recent Fiesta Crash, I decided to update myself on the OutSpark Terms of Service.
As I was reading it, I noticed something... THERE ARE ERRORS!
So here is what I have come up with. In order to make Cypion (And other Server players who read Cypion Forums) more knowledgeable about the OutSpark Terms of Service, we'll play a little game of 'Find The Errors'.
Here is the OutSpark Terms of Service:
http://www.outspark.com/legal (http://www.outspark.com/legal)
Read it, learn it, live it, love it, and if you think you have found the errors, post it in this thread!
What should the reward be to the Cypion player who figures them out?
I guess I'll just have to see. XD
GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL. BE SURE TO READ THE FINE-PRINT!
(And yes, GM's, CL's, CSR's, and PM's are allowed to participate, too! Although I can't offer you anything for finding them out, just my honest "CONGRATULATIONS!")
Currently found errors:
For a start there's a grammatical error here from where its incorrectly been uploaded :P "Outspark strives to provide free �to-play content via the Outspark Service."

LOL@FIRST!
That's pretty much something you must abide by, if you wish to play/have an Outspark account.

4) Outspark Account Creation
When creating an Outspark Account by completing and submitting the Outspark registration form, you represent that you reviewed, understand, and are in full compliance with the Terms. You must also provide truthful and accurate information in the registration process and be who you claim to be. If you are a minor, your parent(s) or guardian(s) must preside over your registration process and/or complete the registration process for you, in which case they will take full responsibility for all obligations under this Agreement and are completely liable for all activities conducted through the Account by you or any other party, whether authorized by the registered user or not.
During the registration process, you must select login information ("Login Information") comprised of a Username and a secure Password.
As creator of your Username, you are completely responsible for your identity and Outspark will not tolerate offensive, obscene, or otherwise inappropriate Usernames. If a Username violates any part of these Terms, determined at the sole and absolute discretion of Outspark support personnel, we may immediately, temporarily, or permanently ban the associated User Account from the Outspark Service, with or without notice or prior warning. 5) Disciplinary Action and Username Termination <~~~
Outspark can and does issue warnings, temporary suspensions and/or permanent terminations of User Accounts for violations of the terms set forth herein. We retain the sole discretion as to when and how to impose warnings, penalties and/or disciplinary actions. The severity of a violation and number of occurrences factor into each decision, but they are not the only measures used to determine an appropriate response. User Accounts may be banned, both temporarily and permanently, without prior warning.
To avoid any doubt, you acknowledge that Outspark has sole discretion with respect to penalties and disciplinary actions even if there is a credit remaining on your Outspark Account.
If you feel you or your Username has been unfairly warned or disciplined, please submit a dispute request to the Outspark Helpdesk via email to support@outspark.com. All submitted dispute requests will be carefully reviewed by Outspark. Any changes made to prior actions will be made at the sole discretion of Outspark.

The game itself is hard, but the idea is brilliant o:
I managed to find only one "error" that hasn't been posted yet, but idk if it is really relevant,
In the "Rules of Conduct" Section, there is a letter missing.
A-Y alphabet?
w) You may not do anything that interferes with the capability of other Outspark Members to enjoy the Outspark Service as defined by the Terms of Service, or that increases the expense or difficulty to Outspark of maintaining the Outspark Service for Outspark Members.
x) You may not intentionally submit inaccurate information, nor otherwise abuse any help, email, or petitioning system.
y) You may not attempt to use any aspect of the Outspark Service that is not authorized, approved, or controlled by Outspark or applicable license holders.

YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU HAVE THE LEGAL CAPACITY TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT.
Minors do not hold that "legal capacity".
The determinations as to whether a violation has occurred and who is responsible for such act are solely within Outspark's discretion
Word "act" should be "acts"
n) You may not leave an Outspark Account logged into the Outspark Service while unattended via either a software applications or physical object(s). If your Outspark Game persona is performing an action of any kind, you must be able to respond to an Outspark representative if approached.
No afking?
BY USE OF THE OUTSPARK SERVICE YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS AND WILL FOLLOW THEM IN THEIR ENTIRITY.
Entirety*
YOU AGREE THAT THESE TERMS WILL APPLY TO ANYONE WHO HAS ACCESS TO YOUR OUTSPARK ACCOUNT.
No one should have access except the creator and outspark....as per these terms...
