Welcome to Discovery!
Dont worry about rules and such, you'll get to know them all just in time. I suggest you make a Freelancer or Junker char for now, and go out to explore and get to know different types of RP and different Factions.
Also about Tech Chart, Its really simple;
' Wrote:* To use the chart, choose your ID in one of the rows, and follow the row across to the column that the ship or weapon that you are interested in belongs to.
and if That Cell is Green, means you can freely use it, if it's White, means you'll have to Post an InRP Request to Official Player Faction of that Tech on
Comm Channel before using it, Red means you can only use it with an approved
SRP Request, and Pink means Guns are Green, Ships are White!
Also, Seems you've already seen some of the links below, but still, I'll post it in case you'd missed some;
