In the very least, I would feel MUCH more comfortable if these (or similar) measures were taken against those who have ALREADY BEEN CAUGHT with the Bots or those who might be suspected (for whatever reason) or those who play super-duper marathon sessions (longer than 24 hours straight perhaps??).

I was thinking of this while reading this thread, too. I stayed up practically all night a couple times recently. I definitely hope that whatever monitoring they do is reasonable and not too hasty or exploitive.

I remember I used to use Concentric.net as my dial-up ISP. They accused me of being a business because I played so many sessions of Age of Empires online that they figured my use must be "excessive." This was after I chose and paid for the level of their service that gave me 24/7 unlimited access. Anyway, they refused to listen to reason and insisted I pay double per month, violating the terms of their own contract. I quit.

If Party were to be as sloppy, stupid, or greedy, seizure of money could be involved, and the loss of a good place to play is a lot more important than the loss of one particular idiot ISP. Wherever reprecussions are both drastic and dependent on honesty and discretion, we're all held hostage, usually to dopes and good luck. I hope we're all as safe from Party itself as we are from people trying to crack it.
