    Can RS shut Sythe down?

    Sythe has been up for 8 years, if they can shut us down, they are doing a bad job of it.

    As outlined in the link Zuzel111 provided Sythe is more or less just a gathering point for users to sell their own products/services. Sythe doesn't directly offer the service and thus makes it very difficult for Jagex to do anything.

    Site owners are not liable for the content their users provide.
    This is a law. This got Hunter Moore out of revenge porn charges. This got YouTube out of copyright infringement. This is real shit.

    Hmm actually providing a place for underage kids to gamble could probably get him in trouble. The forums not big enough to show up on anyones radar though.

    They can't shut this website down, no. He doesn't technically run a built in e-market, just a place where we can advertise, so Richard is in the clear.

    It cannot. Seeing as sythe doesn't encourage the use of the random dicer to gamble and it even states to check your local/state/national laws to see if you are legally allowed to do so.

    It would be like shutting down porn because people under 18 are viewing it.

    If it was the case, Jagex would've done so long ago. Jagex announced their hunt against rwt companies and companies were fined; that doesn't affect sythe because it's not abusing rwt; such things can be done in facebook or twitter and runescape cannot do anything about it.
