It's a matter of roleplay, and it's kind of poor form to jump to the rules in your defense when somebody is playing their character.
This isn't abuse of power, it's Morse there acting things out as his roleplay dictates.
If everyone played the game as following NPC actions to the letter, this would not be a roleplay server at all.
Man this is getting weird. So now you come and say that IRP every primary guy has authority of indíes, but OORP and by server rules only the two highest in command do? Sorry but that doenst make any sense at all and would be either destined to cause lots of strife between officials and indies or be a way for the official faction to give themselves way more power over indies than what the server rules specifically limited it to. And IRP how would you justify that an ensign of the "primary fleet" commands the captain of a "secondary fleet" carrier?
In what you call RP I feel that you're seriously twisting things around there too. I was the one playing out my character doing canon navy RP when asking the hacker to surrender, and Morse was the one who interfered with my RP and started to pull rank on me, making it sound like he had authority over me, which he didnt. The only reason he gave was that him and the hacker "get along", which is hardly a sensible RP reason, and that he was primary fleet. This looks very much to me like the hacker was his oorp friend and he tried to misrepresent server rules to help him. Morse's RP status in no way dictates him to do any of that. So you are really seriously twisting things around here.
So Morse tells me he got authority over me ingame and when I ask on the forum he does a backward flip and apologiezes. Lythrilux who is also in [LN] also first says that they can do that and then also does a backward flip and apologized. Then you come and tell me that I was breaking up RP and jumped to rules, when actually it was Morse who broke up the canon RP I was doing with the lane hacker (I actually didnt attack him, I was talking to him as a navy should and didnt attack yet, and then HE was the one who attacked me after Morse had told me not to), and it was Morse who broke my RP and jumped to non existant "regs" that I should read up on. And after a short check on your posting history... surprise... it turns out you'Re also in the official [LN].
I thought this was sorted out when Morse and Lith apologized, but after your post I really think there is a need for admins to answer these questions:
1. Does everyone in the primary fleet have authority over indy LN according to server rules
2. Does everyone in the primary fleet have authority over indy LN in role play
3. Does the official [LN] leadership have the right to set indy LN peoples rep to red with navy on the grounds that they refused to stand down against canon RP enemies of the navy when order to do so by (a) first or second in command of [LN] (b) other members of [LN]
4. Does the fact that [LN] people claim that all of them have the authority of command over indies RP consitute an abuse of faction power. Cause there's at least 3 of them who did that right here.
