Something interesting I found while browsing forums...

You know what? I have to admit I was wrong! The Licence agreement DOES mention server bans.

Quote:
5. APPROPRIATE GAME PLAY; RESPONSIBILITY FOR GAME PLAY. You agree to not take any action or pass any communication, either in or through the Product, that interferes with another player’s ability to enjoy his or her play of the game or which is objectionable or inappropriate. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, examples of unacceptable behavior include harassing, threatening, embarrassing or intimidating another player or person or entity, transmitting any unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, profane, offensive, obscene, harassing, defamatory, vulgar or hateful communication or material, or any racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable communication or material; impersonating another person or entity, including, without limitation, an EA or Westwood employee or representative, an employee or representative of the operator of the server, another player or an information provider; disparaging the Product, EA, Westwood or any of their representatives or employees, the server operator or its representatives or employees, any other player or any other person or entity; and, intentionally or unintentionally violating any applicable local, state, national or international law, regulation or treaty. You are completely and solely liable for all communications and other activities of every kind and nature conducted by or through your screen name/log-in name.


Yes, I acknowledge that the bolded text can be used in more than one way, so don't bother to point it out, as it CAN be used both in favor of being allowed to ban, and in favor of not being allowed to ban.

6. LOSS OF PRIVILEGES. In the event that you engage in conduct prohibited by this License, or otherwise commit any other breach of this License, then one or more of the following may occur: you may be issued a warning; your account’s chat or other communication abilities may be turned off; use of your account may be temporarily or permanently blocked; and your use of any other on-line gaming or other similar account that you then or may in the future maintain with the operator of the server, EA or Westwood or their respective affiliates may be temporarily or permanently blocked.


This here states however, that if you "engage in conduct prohibited by this License" The server owner may "temporarily or permanently" block you from accessing the server.


Just to highlight the important parts:

This means that a server owner can ban you simply for saying "the host sucks" as it can be deemed harassment.
