Hi I was wondering if it is okay to run a Minecraft (it's a PC game) server off my 25 mb/s upload plan. I've heard that plans have been canceled for doing this. (Server is non-profit)

Thanks

I have never seen anyone get in trouble for that, but it does say in the TOS that you can't run servers on your residential account.   I don't think they police that, but that could change in the future.  I have had fios for quite a few years, and then DSL with Verizon before that, and have never heard an instance where someone was cancelled for doing it.  So I guess do it at your own risk, or YMMV?       I would think they would give you a warning first before action anyway, I know for a fact they give you a couple warnings even on copy right infringements, so I could imagine that they would give you warnings here to.

Seeing as you have 2k+ posts, I think you know what you're talking about. Thanks for the help.

Did you ever get an answer? I would like to run a minecraft server also.

Yes I ran one for about a year, nothing from Verizon.
