Default Re: Illwinter's next project

When I worked for a law firm I was told that tags, signs, declarations, etc are fairly worthless. Instead of being informative or legally useful, they are often used as intimidation. Signs like "not responsible for" or "do not trespass" or "violators will be shot" or "beware of dog" have little real legal value. If you are responsible, then no sign changes that. And things like (tm) tags, ToS, AUP, (or warning letters from lawfirms) are more along the line of "I want you to believe me so you wont take me to court about it".
