Rule Clarification - Are IDs In Character?

[Alestone]

This has gone back and forth over the years, and I would like to know what the current Official position is.

It is not covered in the Server Rules.

IDs are considered in roleplay at present, hence the reason for allowing official wild factions the ability to use indie IDs other than their own official ID while still tagged.

Clarification follow up:

So if I see LNS-TotallyNotASquid|Aoi and scan them to find a Wild ID, how should I handle it in RP terms?

[Czechmate]

Wild ID = Wild, your choice to "believe" them or not
Navy ID but Aoi tag = you will get sanctioned for calling them wild without roleplay reasons unrelated to the tag

So, LEOs still go after Pirates that have not committed a crime simply because they have a Pirate ID?

That's why, imo, it should just be like: ID for you (and OORP), IFF for everyone else (and InRP, respectively). Simple and clear. And it was like that before, iirc.

This is correct.
