Can I ask the deal with whats up with Swcombine and Lucas arts? I want to know some stuff so if people can post different things or link me somewhere it would be cool.....
What do you mean "What's the deal?" What's your actual question?
SWC was shut down by LA at one point because LA thought it would damage their market for SWG. The Admin managed to convince them otherwise, and we are allowed to continue to operate as long as certain considerations are met, as I recall.
Obviously primary among these is that the Combine doesn't make a profit.
Someone else might be able to fill in more specific details.

There's also the issue of using images from Lucas company material. Wherever possible we try and make our own. That 'Lucsarts Latest' link on the Community menu was also required.
I kept myself informed during that little fiasco, and have been in conversations since then about copyrights and such...if you have a question I can help fill you in about what is and isn't allowed by the Combine.
