Players - official SWGO policy is that while fancy character names are allowed, if the name does not show up in our server management software we will ask you to change it. Failure to do so will result in being banned from the server.

If you know the name will cause us problems - change it now.
If you're not sure, go ahead and play and we'll ask you to change it.

Most fancy names will be allowed and are fine with RM, but it seems some people have figured out how to trick the program and that's not allowed.

Not saying anything but....names like mine, with only a few fancy letters that might come up as CndDuk, or names like Drai's in-game?

No those characters have nothing to do with screwing the server management software.
