    winterLove was the name of the "kid", his server is nameless, so its being called after him.

    I think it's pretty save to have a server for personal use or small online use.
    JaGeX will probably never even find out about your server. It's only getting quite dangerous when your having a big server. Servers like Dodian, Frugooscape, BattleScape, 2Speced, etc.

    There would be ways to prove it (all they'd do is ask your ISP for your IP and then compare it with their log files.

    Better to be safe.



    The client code is copyrighted as well. And the copyright won't expire for a good amount of time yet.



    Very true: the Stream/ISAAC cipher in Winterlove are from the client. Hyperion's are not though.



    It depends on the country, type of work, etc.

    However:

    The best thing is to ASK A LAWYER!

    The people in this community (unless we have a lawyer hidden among us) cannot give real legal advice.
    They couldn't prove it by my isp since i haven't logged into rs with the one I'm using.

    And how do you figure they would even get my isp to begin with?


    And jagex isn't going to sue anyone, they know they can't win it so they would just be wasting money.

    agreed. There would be million servers to sue then. And if someone's server had been sued, they would just start a new server with new name and shit.

    Fair enough then, but you aren't the only person who owns a server.

    Through your hosting company.

    And how can you predict how Jagex will act? Other MMORPGs have sued people in the private server/hacking community.
