I would say you really are missing the point if you think parroting the ToS has any relevance to the topic. Any MMO ToS basically states that developers can treat their players like complete garbage if they choose to, but that doesn't necessarily mean that players will sit down and happily allow and keep paying for a game where the developers abuse it.

For example, it says right at the top of the ToS that SE can delete your character "FOR NO REASON." Now, let's just say for example, that SE decided to actually decided to ban 10% of the players in their game "for no reason" each week. Would you also come in and say "Well, this is what we signed up for, guys, so I'm OK with this. Deal with it guys!" I would imagine not.

That example is a little extreme, and obviously it's not expected to happen, but the point is that just because the ToS allows developers free reign over absolutely everything, it doesn't mean that players would actually put up with it. In fact, if developers abused their players to the fullest extent that their ToS allowed, I'm willing to bet that there's hardly any players who would put up with it. There's nothing wrong with defending SE for their actions in there's good reason to, but anyone using "hey, look, it's in the ToS!" as a legitimate argument cannot be taken seriously.
