Hi ********, this is Senior GM Gourney with SOE Customer Service.

You were suspended for
mis-using the character transfer service, and taking advantage of an
anomaly with the Sunrider's Destiny to re-sell 24 tuned crystals. (which
became untuned as a result of the transfer.) In this case, you
knowingly took crystals which were tuned to people, and manipulated the system
to re-sell these to other players on other servers. This is an
exploit, and a serious one and is a clear violation of our Community
Standards policy, echoed here:

http://starwarsgalaxies.station.sony.co ... e=policies

12. You will not exploit any bug in Star Wars Galaxies, and you will
not communicate the existence of any such exploitable bug either directly
or through public posting, to any other Sony Station member. You will
promptly report such bugs via the /bug command in-game or by emailing
SWGSupport@soe.sony.com. Exploitable bugs include, but are not limited
to bugs that grant the user unnatural or unintended benefits in-game.

Exploitation of bugs within the game will result in disciplinary action
being taken against the account that may include official warnings,
account suspensions, or account terminations depending on the severity or
repetitiveness of these incidents 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.

After looking over the account history and its recent events, we will
not be releasing this account from its suspension, and the account is
going to be reviewed for termination due to the repeated and severe
nature of these violations.

If you have follow-up questions or concerns, please submit a reply, and
the team will have a look at it for you.

The character transfer service is gone from what I understand, for now anyway.

I did always hate people who did this, so I can't say I am upset by SOE's action.

Server transfers have been down since March 16th, maybe they're trying to patch stuff like this?
