Host a EMU SWG server!

Ok, here is the catch, I just won the Lotto, yes I did, I want my dream come true, I want to experience the game of the year again with my family.
I will pay 250,000 dollars to anyone who can create SWG Pre CU private server. Not CU not NGE only Pre CU.

Please send me a PM as soon as you can, I will pay for any cost in making this happen.

Completely untrue. He could put a big ass sign on a building across the street from SOE's headquarters saying he's RUNNING a private server, and they can't do crap, if he's not making money from it.

Yeah, but with the right number of lawyers and a large checkbook, they can keep you from taking a dump if they tried hard enough.

F-ing lawyers.

Of course they can do crap, he's pretty much stolen the server software.  Microsoft doesn't excuse people when they're nailing people for pirating their software privately, nor do the Record Labels when you're downloading music privately.

LOL well at least until Mr. Lucas showed up and said:

"Hmm, oh is that a Jedi in your nice little game on a private a server ? Uhm ok sure, that's cool, I'll be right back." Evil grin on his face as he walks away.

A day later a platoon from the Lucas Arts legal department shows up and quickly informes the newly rich that his life now belongs to them... end of story. :)

It's one thing to mess around with SOE or another game company, but to screw with LA, that's just plain stupid.

Not true. I can do anything I want with characters that are "Jedi" as long as I dont:
A) Release it as a competing product IE affect or damage the ability for Lucas Arts to "Profit" from Jedi.
B) Sell it in any way.

I could play "Jedi" in my back yard, write stories, draw pictures, or even make personal video games for me and my friends. I could paint a life size princess Lea on my wall with a light saber in one hand and a bottle of scotch in the other and Geroge couldn't do a darn thing.

You can be sued by an artist/designer/creator over theft/misuse of intellectual property. In part this is why you're not meant to sell SWG items on ebay and why people have teh rider ontheir sale sayin gthat it's not the item but the time spent that you are paying for.

Pretty much the same as Disney suing nursery schools (kindergarten) over the use of Disney characters in murals.
