Actually, because it's my money that's being spent on the server, it's up to me who plays on the server and who doesn't. Pretty much I get the last say as to anything going on with the server. Anyone who breaks my rules is therefor infringing upon my rights to decide what goes on. My first line of defense is kicking you from the server. Since most of you idiots think it's more fun to jump back on and piss me off instead of finding somewhere to actually play the game, then my second line of defense kicks in: ban your IP.
Now, we all know how simple it is to get a new IP. Besides being incredibly hard up that you would do this just to continue pissing me off, you're now harrassing me and the people on my server. There's no reason yet for the law to get involved, but if you continue to find ways around me stopping you from harrassing me, then legally I have every right to hit you with a law suit. And I don't see how I could possibly lose this suit.
In terms of the various websites that condone cheating being cause for criminal action, I don't know. That would really be much more technical than I dare get involved in - HOWEVER, such websites that discuss how you can crash servers and FURTHERMORE discuss particular servers and hacking into them... now you're not only harrassing the people who pay for the server and the people who frequent said server, but you're also involving yourself in cyber-terrorism. I don't think you really want to find yourself talking to the FBI about such matters.
