Re: Security Issues
Yes, and no.
I think anyone with an ounce of sense should realize that the counseling of a random (and rather unprofessional) internet forum should never be comparable to the advice of a real lawyer.
That being said, most game owners here are running not-for-profit, hobbyist games and likely just want to form a "comfort zone" as far as protecting their legal rights, and maybe even be able to have something to deter would-be thieves. The grand majority of people here will never really ever be in a situation where they're not only capable but are also willing to enter a drawn-out legal battle over a MUD. Unlike the music business, or even the novel business, our world isn't one filled with 15-page-plus contracts and advocates/agents.
"Don't discuss that, ask a lawyer" type answers annoy me because they're not actually helpful and they leap outside the realm of sensibility.
