Community Rules and Guidelines


‏‏

TOO LAZY, DIDN'T READ.

    Be respectful!


    • Players from around the world play on our servers simply to enjoy the world of Star Wars, not for you to take your anger out on them.

    • Our community teams such as Server Staff or Contributors dedicate their time to ensure everyone's experience is perfect. Please treat them with the utmost respect, since they do it for you.

    Stay in character!


    • When online and using our servers, please try your best to immerse not just yourself but those around you. It goes a long way and makes things much more interesting!

    Do your part!


    • Help us improve our servers by keeping track of our updates and continuously strive to suggest the next best thing, or be the first to report that gamebreaking bug. We'll reward you in-game for it!

    • Do your part in keeping our community clean by utilizing our tools given to players to help out. This comes in the form of report-reactions on our Discord, player reports on our forums, and more.
