Those player rules only apply to servers ran by the project. You can act however you wish to act on other community servers. We instate these rules because we want the Test center to be a _TEST_ center.

As for the naming thread in particular. Jacko's concern was genuine and he has a reason to voice his concerns about naming rules. The boundary of naming rules is up to whoever runs the server. SWGEmu TC naming rules, on the db wipe, have been defined in the Player Rules and Policies. Since Jacko was questioning naming policies on the TC, which was answered by Serpentkaa, the thread's purpose was fulfilled.

There is no point in debating how far naming restrictions should go in general since we allow server owners to set them. However, if there is a concern over SWGEmu TC's own rules/policies, that is something that can be up for debate. We haven't received any complaints about our TC rules/policies yet.
