Since you're Battlefield community members, we know that you are smart and helpful, and will respect that we must protect our intellectual property rights in the franchise. In other, more legal-styled terms, please stop distributing copies of our game clients and using our trademarks, logos, and artwork on your sites. Thing is, your websites may easily mislead visitors to believe that you are associated or affiliated with EA - we're the only ones that get to wear the "Official EA" dog tag. We need a favor though: we must ask that you stop throwing down Ammo Crates. Not to brag, but we too get the nostalgia chills when booting up these classic entries in the Battlefield franchise.
