    um so?  You don't work for them and I don't know of any game that gives out royalties or anything for having a good suggestion...  You're being a little ridiculous.

    That’s right - players don’t work for them but if you suggest the next greatest thing in gaming, they get to exploit it.  Their words.  Exploit.

    ex·ploit
    verb
    ikˈsploit/
    1. make full use of and derive benefit from (a resource).

    It tends to have a negative connotation in gaming, but from a legal since, it's the correct word.  Again, I think you're being a little silly.  I'm sure most games ToS have this or something very similar in them.  Nothing to see here.

    Just pointing out what most gloss over.

    And just because a lot of people do something, that doesn’t make it right.
