STF and infogames is not related to OOTP in any way. Infogames may sell the OOTP game under the Season Ticket name, but STF is a game by Action PC football which has absolutely nothing to do with the OOTP or .400 Studios people. I hope his league succeeds and would never wish death upon it, but the facts remain:

1. OOTP and .400 Studios have offered free web space to any league that come up with a specified number of licenses of OOTP. Even though STB is related to OOTP, the STB licenses do not count in whether or not you get web space from them, only the OOTP licenses.

2. In order to limit bandwidth and traffic on their server, .400 Studios forbids the running of two leagues on the web space given. They also want to limit the space to ONLY things related to OOTP.

3. What JBlaze did was wrong on both counts in #2. He posted files that were not related to OOTP on his web site (whether a template or not, that was wrong). Then he compounded the error by posting a link to it so that others would go see it. This just increased the traffic on the .400 Studios server for something that isn't even baseball.

JBlaze has no defense for what was done. Temporary or not, it shouldn't have been there and most certainly should not have had others visiting it through his link.
