RE: Rules Clarification Thread - rwx - 08-23-2024
====================
RULE: 2.0 - Every ship must have one ID equipped, and play in a way that represents the role of that ID. [...]
QUESTION: Is it allowed to be in the same player group with hostile faction players against a third party? (e.g. Bounty Hunters + Order vs. Nomads)
====================
ADMIN/MOD ANSWER: It is generally unacceptable to group up with factions that you are hostile with, even if during an engagement/encounter with Nomads. However, in your example, it would be acceptable iRP for Core/Order to not engage to prioritise engaging Nomads.

====================
RULE: Pob Commodities
QUESTION:
- Are pinned contraband items known inRP?
- Is the "someone docks on POB" or "leaves a POB" with contraband passage still valid?
====================
ADMIN/MOD ANSWER: Pinned commodities are considered OORP. They serve only to assist in base supplying and cannot be used INRP against the base. If you do see a ship dock with contraband and undock without it, you can 100% use that against both the transport and the base INRP.

====================
RULE: -
QUESTION: This came up in a recent discussion unrelated to any particular incident, but please consider making a pinned topic in the sanction discussion/vote section (read: visible to any current party participating in voting) and a google doc, where each server rule has a subsection that has linked TL'DR to already enforced clarifications with a link to the corresponding post in this thread. We never got around to it back in the day, but it should reduce situations where a sanction was voted upon in a way to contradicts an answer in this thread, especially if the clarification was made by a team that has gone through a turnover.

RULE:2.2 - If you are killed or dock during a hostile player encounter, you must not re-enter the system or attack anyone involved in the encounter for 1 hour. Trade Ships docking during a hostile player encounter are not considered to have been "killed".
QUESTION: If the agressor(s) that have engaged and killed me, logged off the server, am I allowed to return to the system that I was killed in? I seem to have missed this clarification.
