I'm sure that most of you have noticed some changes in the population of Sunrise City. CrimeCraft was officially made available to European customers just over two weeks ago, and we've got a lot of new faces in the game as a result. This has a few critical implications for our ingame policies that you, the players, need to be aware of.

Most importantly, the influx of new players also means we have a lot of new languages ingame. Prior to this, I'm pretty sure our most popular languages were English and 1337speak.

The additional players are great for the game, but the lingual diversity also means we have to make some small changes to how our GMs monitor the ingame chat. It's impractical (not to mention silly and ridiculous) to enforce an English-only chat rule when the game is officially available to so many countries where English is not the primary language. Hence, effective immediately, you're welcome to speak in whatever language you like while in-game.

However, that doesn't mean that anything goes, Wild-West style. Our same policies about what you can say are still in effect.

Before we get to our side of the equation on that, I want to remind all of our players that you can blacklist other players ingame. If somebody is spamming, or the chat is distracting you, you're welcome to avail yourself of that tool.

On our end, our GMs are there to uphold the rules and policies, and to help maintain a fun, welcoming playing environment for everybody. If you feel like somebody has crossed the proverbial line, whether it's regarding spam, harrassment, or any other chat-related violation, you need to contact your local GM with an official complaint or file a complaint with the Customer Service department, which you can find by clicking "Help" on the upper-right hand side of this very website.

The bottom line is that we want everybody to have fun in-game, whether you speak English, Spanish, Russian, or Wookie. When somebody is breaking the rules we've set forth in our Rules of Conduct and making your experience less enjoyable, you need to let us know. We're here to serve you, but we need to know how we can help, first.

To recap:

1. Effective immediately, the English-only rule for ingame chat is officially revoked.

2. If you see somebody violating our Rules of Conduct, in any language, contact your local GM or CS department.

(And, as a side note, if you do speak fluent Wookie I'd be willing to pay for lessons. Just sayin'.)
