They are technically not selling anything. For donating a certain amount you get to receive <insert product>. They're not making a profit off the game. They're making donations. It's the loophole in the system of private servers, because if you do sell another person's product without permission your ass is just waiting to get sued. Running their product/service is a different story.
If being a loser means not playing Silkroad all day.. lulwut?

Their terms = world wide(I think?), but country laws don't exist in every other country. Again loophole. Joymax terms clearly stats you cannot make a profit off their game and that's what private servers do, not make a profit. They accept donations.

Doesn't exist in some countries like I said. Thus allowing them to run the game in another country.

Well now you've went around that loop too much. Based on what you've stated, if the country has no laws on copyrights... Why would it matter if they used the name Silkroad?
Can we not just except that they are kinda uneducated on almost everything? Be it law/english/programming/common sense/etc

Lol. It seems you don't know the exact definition of ''donations''. It's like a gift; you donate money to someone/a fund, and you don't receive anything in return. Just like a gift. I mean, if I give you a birthday gift, I don't expect anything back in return. ZSZC is using the word ''donations'' wrong. But if they just put something like ''Buy ZSP'' on their website, they'll probably get sued in a day or 2.

exactly what i did,u take the serverlist made by rumata and you open config file and put the zszc ip

All your chars and items are kept. The transfer of the data from old server to new server takes about 1 day. Please be patient and don't spamm the forum. Probably you will be able to play again tomorrow. Best regards
