Your laws may differ, however, a T.O.S. is not a legally binding agreement in the United States. It has absolutely no effect on law, nor does it supersede law in any manner. The rest of your post, however, is excellent.

That might be because you're posting the most ridiculous nonsense possible. I have numerous websites where professionals from doctors in various fields to attorneys to published authors post content. That doesn't make the content mine. In fact, these fine individuals would never post anything if it meant waiving their right to their content. I know of no one who would agree to such terms, and even if they did it would hold no force and effect in law. Just because you write a TOS which says by joining your site I agree you have the right to, for example, half of my paycheck, doesn't make it so. You're simply making it up as you go along which makes it impossible to respond with any logical answer.
