Unofficial Faction Rules

[Karst]

3.) The cooperation is between IDs that can ally, but they share a tag. Suddenly, it's a "faction rule violation"!

It's not, if vessels have same LNS or HMS prefixes (LN+LSF+LPI and BAF+BIS+BP) yet even RNC are also acceptable (RM+MND) - however they cannot share a tag. The workaround is made like this:

UA| - basic tag for let's say Universal Army (FL ID).
UA-M| - tag for Universal Army's Miners (Miner ID).
UA-I| - tag for Universal Army's Intel of whatever it is (Pirate ID).

Doesn't work like that. A faction that used non-identical, slightly varied tags for ships with different IDs were warned they could not do so, even though the IDs were permitted to ally.

What about Tinkers & Transport? They were allowed to have Junker ID (J/T&T) and Freelancer ID (T&T), due to the fact that Junkers (trade with PScrap) are not allowed to Kusari, yet Tinkers have contracts with Kusari.

Double standards, I guess. No other explanation why one group can do it and others cannot.
