Max; beautifully stated, professionally handled, timely response. You have those qualities, and I am glad to have you as a superior.

Ekaika; calm but structured, simplistic but perfectly understandable. You too have great qualties and once again I am great to have you as well as a superior.

This goes for the entire Team to be honest. As it is obvious this decision was not made quickly, nor sloppily. This was obviously a full Team decision, discussed as carefully and intricately as possible.

I commend you all for a professional and outstanding response to something affecting the community that is in all description, your community.

Thank you for everything you guys have done and let's continue to make this professional and great like we all know it will be, and IS.

Decision has been made and it needs to be respected.

I do however think that a warning or two before perma-banning someone is in order, everyone deserves a second chance no matter how much they screw up.

I also think that retroactive implementation of this rule is a bit harsh. It should be used in any future cases of hacks, exploits, etc. But people that used hacks and are now banned maybe wouldn't have done it if they had known that such measures would be taken against them.

But whats done is done, rules are rules and we all must obey them.

P.S. I'm not opposing this rule, nor am I trying to change public opinion, I am simply stating my own opinion on this matter.

Warnings have been given, and documentation accumulated. This is neither arbitrary nor spontaneous. No one affected can righteously claim surprise or ignorance.

I stand corrected then. I apologize.

Thats what im talking about, don't take sh*t from hackers. they are pansy's, who only knows how to win by cheating. so F them F them in the A. Honestly people who are going to exploit and cheat in SWG doesnt know the true mechanic of the game, and dont deserve to play or test it. the swg people here who love the game would never cheat, we just play the game that we learned to love back in 2003.

When I was reading the forums the past two days, I was concerned of the direction that things were going.

I think a lot of people were quietly watching to see if this emu project was going to be like other emulator projects in where server leaders helped their chosen friends and protected them.

Today has reaffirmed for myself and many others here that this is a unique and totally different project. this is not just an emulator, but a seperate game. Pre-CU does not exist any longer on live, so the emu is the only way.

People were always concerned though if this community would be like many other emulators in that a 'chosen few' would be those who would have everything as chosen by the leaders of the project.

This swift and just action shows this is not the case. This truely is a project that not just emulates Pre-CU, but a professional gaming company developing a mmorpg game to run on its own online servers.

I hope everyone will take note of this and for those of you who sought to prosper at the expense of others' enjoyment, your enjoyment lies elsewhere. It will not be with this project.
