Unless otherwise specified, or obvious literal contradiction, the general SWG:EMU rules and policies also apply to Sunrunner II.

In order to use any SWGEmu game server, you must legally own either Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided, Star Wars Galaxies: Starter Kit, Star Wars Galaxies: Total Experience or Star Wars Galaxies: Complete Adventures Online. There are multiple legal ways to acquire a legitimate copy of SWG, should you need one. Amazon.com, Ebay, etc. are examples of online stores that sell SWG. You only need “An Empire Divided” (the original boxed game from ’03), however, any non-trial version including “The Total Experience”, “Starter Kit”, “Access Station Kit” and “The Complete Online Adventures” will work on SWGEmu servers. PLEASE BE ADVISED: The use of a copy obtained through Warez or Torrent websites (P2P downloads) is illegal due to the software still being covered under copyright law The use of the Sony SWG 14-day Trial client is considered illegal Anyone found to be using an illegal client to attempt to log into any SWGEmu server will potentially lose part or all of their privileges on all SWGEmu Properties.

1. Account

2. Character and Item Naming
2.1 Character and Item names in SWGEmu should reflect the genre of the game. The character naming policy encompasses first and last names. The following types of names are inappropriate:
2.1.1 Vile, profane, rude, or racist names including common swear words, anatomical references, racial slurs, and homonyms of these words.

2.1.3 Any and all drug references.
2.1.4 Proper names from the Star Wars universe, including the first or last name of any significant NPC in Star Wars Galaxies or the Star Wars universe (e.g. Skywalker, Greedo, Vader, Exar Kun, Xizor, Fett)
2.1.5 Any historical or religious references. (e.g God, Jesus, Allah, Satan, Adolf Hitler, Stalin)
2.1.6 Names chosen with the intent, or possessed of the effect of harming the reputation of, or used to impersonate a SWG Sunrunner developer, representative or CSR.
2.2 For all of the above, misspellings and alternative spellings of the word or words are also unacceptable. Guild Tags that violate the above rules will be disbanded and the guild leader will be subject to disciplinary action. Characters with any of the above type of name violations can be deleted. There will be no reimbursements made for any items, structures, credits, skills, or any other game related issue directly related to the character name being changed for the above violations. Items or objects with these words will be deleted without reimbursement.
2.3 Combinations of items or structures that violate the above rules will also be deleted without reimbursement for the item, structure, credit investment or contents. Any other name deemed inappropriate that may not fall under the above categories will be deleted at the decision of SWG Sunrunner Staff, who have the final say on all name changes. Repeated violations can also result in an account ban.

3. Player Rules of Conduct
Note: Violating any of the below rules will result in disciplinary action being taken against the character that may include official warnings, @muteplayer, @kill, @kick, and @ban. Multiple infractions by a character or several characters associated with an account will result in the @ban of that account.
3.1. You may not harass or threaten other players (sexually, racially, or otherwise). Final determination of player infraction and severity will be made by a CSR. This includes but is not limited to: Hate Mongering, Sexual Abuse. Harassment, Training, Phishing and Spamming.
3.1.1 Harassment is defined as any unwanted or unwelcome behavior beyond the limits of good taste, civility and appropriate game context. Harassment is further defined by who is being harassed and how they perceive it. They then provide the proof to us, SWG Sunrunner Staff, where we make a determination if it is indeed harassment.
3.1.2 Training is defined as pulling/leading a hostile NPC or creature along behind you and attempting to get it to attack another player who does not desire that engagement.
3.1.3 Fishing is defined as deliberately wandering into the “visibility” radius of a jedi to make BH terminals produce Jedi missions for waiting a BH that are present at the mission terminals so that the BH can hunt the same specific jedi over and over.
3.1.4 Spamming is defined as excessive and inappropriate use of spatial communications (i.e. emote spamming, excessive hawking or tip spamming). Rule of thumb, once every 3 minutes (/pause 180) is plenty for hawking (selling) an item or advertising for buffs (Buff instructions from entertainers can be given in group chat to keep from cluttering up spatial). As there is no Auto-AFK timeout on the server, emotes (/smile, /clap, etc) in your macros serve no purpose other than to clutter up spatial, and should not be used. Note: excessive numbers of hawkers in an area may be removed from the server by a CSR.
3.1.5 Scamming is defined as a confidence game or other fraudulent scheme, especially for making a quick profit; swindle. Also defined as to cheat or defraud with a scam. Proof from the involved account must be submitted to SWG Sunrunner Staff and an investigation will be done to determine if it is indeed scamming.
3.2. You may not use any sexually explicit, harmful, threatening, abusive, defamatory, obscene, hateful, racially or ethnically offensive language, in any language. The presence of any form of preventative filter or other game features is not license or permission, tacit or otherwise, to use such language in any form.
3.3. You may not impersonate any SWG Sunrunner Staff Member or associated Live Server Admins, past or present. They are volunteers helping you get your game back. This includes any form of parody, jest, or attempt to deflect other players for fear of action being taken against their account. This includes:
3.3.1 Attempting to Defraud a CSR – Petitioning with untrue information with the intention of receiving benefits as a result. This includes reporting bug deaths, item loss, or fraudulently accusing other players of wrongdoing.
3.3.2 Impersonating a CSR or falsely representing yourself to another player as SWG Sunrunner Staff.
3.3.3 Arguing with CSR personnel in tells after they have resolved an issue according to the rules. If you have an issue with how a CSR has handled your case, you may put in a ticket requesting a review.
3.3.4 CS Personnel Abuse – sending excessive unsolicited tells to a CSR, Admin or Dev, excessively using say or other channels to communicate to a CSR, making physical threats, using abusive language against a CSR
3.3.5 Submitting inappropriate or spamming CS tickets – submitting tickets with abusive language and/or profanity or continual submission of CS tickets regarding any issue which a CSR has already determined is closed.
3.3.6 Using Threats of Retribution by SWG Sunrunner Staff Member Friends – attempting to convince another player that they have no recourse in a disagreement because favoritism is shown to one of the parties by the SWG Sunrunner Staff.
3.3.7 You may not use CSR, GM or DEV as any part of your name or bio, even if you were a CSR on live. These designations are reserved for current CSRs.

Please note that this list is not all inclusive and a CSR/Admin may determine that other actions are considered abuse. This will be done on a case by case review.

We leave all of our political and religious ideas at the door. No explicit or veiled language, threats, or complaints involving these issues will be tolerated.**
