It's hard enough getting to people to read user agreements as it is, and a post like this that basically says "We changed it, go here to read the whole thing" does not help. I for one would like to know what has been revised. I imagine it has a lot to do with the SE account transfers, but at the same time, I don't want to end up banned because it's now against the agreement to store 14 wind crystals in my Mog Locker. Could we perhaps get an overview of what has been revised in the agreement, or at least some bullet points pointing to the specific sections of the agreement that have been revised? Tyvm :)

EULAs are designed to be very thick with legalese. While I agree that minor changes can be quite bothersome to find, I feel that everyone should read the EULA for everything they play and own. It's very important.

To be perfectly clear, I have at one point read the previous agreement in full. I would rather not have to do so again when 90% of the content is likely unchanged. I'm hoping that someone on the community team can point us directly to the other 10% to avoid such a necessity :)

Still a clause in there that they can end the service any time they want and not give you a refund, and terminate your account with or without cause.

And there's no refunds for Chrysta, either. They need to change that or there's gonna be a lawsuit.

Any chance someone can run the old and new EULAs through grep and tell us where the differences are?
