i know some people who i had known for a long time on SWG before the NGE came to eve-online and most went to WoW but i thought that u all might be interested to know SOE has sanctioned that a group of developers (ie SWGEMU team) may use the old Pre-Cu code and bring back are old Pre-Cu servers and the thing is it is totally legal as the old server versions are now obsolite i just thought id let everyone kno who used to play Pre-Cu there is a bloodfin server being remade for those of you who are old bloodfin memebers and all the cities are being fully restored and everything for more info on the bloodfin server pm me or contact me ingame.
Just thought u guys might wanna know

They sanctioned it?
I really don't get all the Pre-CU SWG talk. SWG bombed at release and never really made it to the big leagues. The game was bug ridden beyond play it's first few months into release and now that it's dead ppl make it out to be like it was something great.
Seriously, it's like you know this total jackass who is a total ***** IRL then he gets shot in the head because he was being a ***** to some other jackass. Then at his funeral everyone makes out like he was this great guy who did all these good things.... when in reality.
He was still a *****.

Pre-Cu SWG = UO in Star Wars. Gold.
Even with the bugs = Gold.
this NGE crap = crap. Killed SWG.

In SWG a great of the data was held client side, some say that attributed to the god awful lag but the SWG EMU guys said thank you very much.
The SOE faction leader, Jon Smedley, said that it was just a hobby for some out of work coders to try to emulate the old days but he never sanctioned it nor did he or Sony take any legal action against it.
Either way I won't be playing. SWG was great, it's crafting was innovative and complex, it's politics were nearly as gripping as EVE's and it's basic structure was fantastic. The game sucked. Lag, imbalances, griefers (of a huge nature), exploits almighty, worthless professions, worthless craftable items, server instabilities and a severe lack of genuine improvement over time should be the things that the old player base remembers and therefore remembers why it shouldn't be played again.

Is this a freeshard (i.e. often ran on dodgy servers :p) or are SOE personally involved in this?

SOE are not personally involved in it in any way, shape or form.
From what I can gather though they've managed to get a pretty decent replication of what Pre-CU life was and the servers aren't any better or worse than what they were in the actual game.
