Quote:3 .1 An attack is any hostile action that drains shields to less than 50%. Saying "Engaging" is not sufficient and aggressors are not allowed to destroy a ship before allowing sufficient time to respond. If a player is attacked he has the right to defend himself regardless of who is attacking. Trading nanobots, shieldbatteries or other ammo and equipment during a fight is also considered taking an active role in the engagement.
5.Characters of level 29 and below or ships using a Recruit ID may not be attacked unless they:
Attack first by draining the shield down to 50% or firing a cruise disruptor.
Rules are clear, please read them.
Consequences:
You appear to be a new player so a small fine to get your attention.
