I couldn't possibly comment on your analogy.

Personally, I don't think it's fair to generalise that having read one AUP you've read the lot. It may be true that there will be familiar topics covered in all of them, due to the subject matter, however, there will enevitably be differences.

Yes, you are quite right, AntiOnline is a forum. That doesn't mean that we the forum users shouldn't abide by the owners rules, regulations, wishes, etc, does it? I don't like this "Modern attitude," of it's only so and so and of little importance. Perhaps I'm just getting old, however, there appears to be, at least to me, a decreasing amount of respect for things in successive generations. If there were more respect perhaps there'd be less spam and the like!

The problem of course, is not the forum users who adopt a "Common sense," approach, like your good self, but the abusers. They are not going to bother about AUP's, EULA's, or anything else legislative - they have no respect for these things!
