3. You may not disrupt the normal playability of a game world area.
Policies Community Standards :
In addition to the general guidelines listed in the aforementioned article, players are also subject to these supplementary rules while playing Star Wars Galaxies. While by no means an all-inclusive list of the do's and don'ts in Star Wars Galaxies, it provides a suitable foundation by which the player can determine what activities are appropriate: Par #3. of this section
Area Disruption is defined as any activity, intentional or unintentional, which harms or inconveniences a larger number of players. Causing a disruption may result in disciplinary action being taken against the account that may include official warnings, account suspensions, or account terminations depending on the severity of the incident which will be determined by a CSR and a CSR Supervisor. Multiple suspensions or account termination will result in the termination of all SOE game accounts.
Disruption includes, but is not limited to, such things such as:
- Deliberately blocking a doorway or narrow area so other players cannot get past.
Making excessive and inappropriate use of spatial communications, i.e. spamming.
- Placing any object (such as pets, droids, structures, city facilities) which prevent access to game content (anything in the game, including city structures, houses, caves, mission terminals, etc.) or trap other customers.
- Using graphics intensive weaponry to duel in high traffic areas*
- Organizing, holding, or participating in protests held in high traffic areas (such as busy Starports or other areas where many players normally gather).
Now with that above being "cast in stone" on the SOE site. The question of Camping is by definition in breach of said Rules and Guidelines. http://starwarsgalaxies.station.sony.com/content.jsp?page=Policies Community Standards.
Therefore to all who camp and dont consider it an exploit or "braking a rule" you may want to re-read theses Policies and the TOS, EULA, or however you may refer to this document(s). It is a clear violation of the agreement that we all "accept" when we log in.
So to this end I too feel "cheated" by campers but if the CSR's are to fairly and sternly enforce set policies we will have to endure or not.
That's my $0.02 worth .

i never really noticed a drop in prices. If there was one it wasn't very much. I did notice a rise in ca/aa sales though. Seems that the nyax campers were making out like bandits.

AFK Camping Lord Nyax for SEAs has hurt the game in my opinion. SeeingI am on a server where one person with a couple of his Alts camped LordNyax 24/7 and it would take anywhere from 4-5 people to outdamage them I'm glad its back to its original timer. Now I believe everyone willhave a better chance to face ol Nyax and get loot for themself. On thing would be if he was as Elder but c'mon I can beat him unbuffed. Doesn't make sense to have someone get these uber SEAs so easily and be able to camp there all day long.

no...in fact it will be worse
people will wait for a spawn...then figure the time til the next spawn...the log in 20min prior to buff up and make it there in time. they have only made the problem worse with this...before you could go with a group and outdamage some people for a few runs...then leave...now...its retarded...it goes back to...who has the best weapon and who can time it best...and this leaves it SOO open for a jedi to run in and steal it since he can now hit and run nyax every almost 4 hours.
