i see people going around using costume parts (face/hair) that are not in the character creator.

there is a certain group of people that have stolen the face/hair files from the TOS NPCs and are using it on their playable characters.

here are some pics these people post. you can see they are not boffs becuase they are on maps you cannot bring your boffs, these are all playable characters:

since these people keep doing this and post pics about it, is this actually ok to do?

because if this is OK to do them it should be known to everyone.

remember to brush!

    Naming and shaming (names are visible in the screen shot) is going to get this post canned. If you have to ask if you should be doing something, chances are you know what the answer SHOULD be, already.

    Short answer: no.
    Long answer: hell no.

    Apply this to any future inquiry into manipulating game files.

    Perhaps I'm in the minority in thinking this, but... so what? They'll likely end up being hit by the ban hammer but in the meantime they're not hurting anyone else in the slightest.

    If there is nothing wrong with this, and it doesn't hurt anyone, then everyone should be allowed to do this. Life isn't fair, but games are supposed to be, at least in the rules. We can't have different rules for different people.

    No naming & shaming. If you feel the need to report something, do so through the regular ways, posting on the forums (while breaking the rules) helps nothing, aside of inciting potential flames.
