Rules, flameout, exploits and bans

Okay so here is the real question, what about the BH bug with the Terminals?

It's been fixed on unstable already (check TRAC)

This was a published FYI. Lets keep the unrelated side banter and name calling out please.

Thanks.

Okay, sorry. Thanks for all that the team does, btw.

Five things:
1. First, let me thank the SWGEMU staff for all the hard work that they do to allow the rest of us to enjoy quality in-game time. THANK YOU!!!
2. I am impressed with the judicious manner in which the team investigated the issue, related it to past issues, and decided the punishments
3. The whole matter was dealt with better than most court systems could have done... nice job.
4. I applaud the fact that those that were guilty of this offense were given a choice of lightened punishments based on the fact that we are still in a test environment.
5. The actual punishment options seem fair and just.

this is a nice update, glad to hear something is being done. But still, what about their alts? The houses, credits and other loot/belongings they have received from exploiting? My own personal opinion is have every character on their account taken/deleted, make them start from scratch. Again just my idea, not trying to tell devs what to do.

i am glad that something was done about this, this restores my faith in this server.

My point exactly. We got alot of new players here..(2012'ers in case you're wondering), who have TONS of games to play, to pick from. We've all been sucked in by the hype, the graphics, I have quad nVidia 670's and you don't so you can't play the game HAHA...the super releases we have waited years for, only to realize ,' Yeah ,the graphics are good...yeah, the voice acting IS thorough...but howcome they ruined helicopters ? Howcome 'they' took away commander? Howcome they gave Jedi to everybody? Howcome crafting and resources are an afterthought....

Then we come back to a game from nearly 9 years ago...All of a sudden, graphics don't matter anymore do they? TOTALLY don't give a f$#k do we ?
...Community and freedom are what matters.
Grinding/'work' is rewarded again.

What If we THEN found out, or perceived, that the last SHREAD of integrity in all video game history (SWGemu staff in this case) was non-responsive to blatant corruption, we'd have nothing.

We would all end up playing Crysis of BattleDuty 17 on our facebook accounts via our iPhone7's while driving.

Praise the SwiggyMoo team for actually LISTENING to the cries of their 'customers' yesterday, something John Smedley and SONY never did.

Love the sig

Would say that this was handled well by staff, having the current state of the Emu in mind, development and all. It would have looked differently on a live server, as I'm sure we all know.

[Emerzon]

Good read, thanks for the update.

[Superjebus]

That explains a lot.....

The offenders must be laughing all the way to their bank.. Seems crime DOES pay in this game after all.
I'll be happy to take a 2 month forum ban if you give me 100 mill worth of loot...

the time you spend doing youre crimes and then the 2 months for 100 mil ? looks like poor income to me.

besides this is on a alpha server, who says there wount be a db wipe during the 2 months ?

[nikj]

That wasn't an option available to them.
