Good.
Quote:* - Can attack any ship in self-defense or to protect allied vessel.
* - Can demand cargo and credits from all except House Military/Police/Intelligence, Bounty Hunter, and Order IDs unless the target is flying on a Freighter/Transport/Liner.
* - Cannot use any transports with more than 3,600 cargo, except for the Pirate Train.
Question to admins: Unione Corse and Hogosha are both bounty hunting factions, to some extent, as in their lore and as defined/allowed by their ID. Now honestly, I don't mind either way if they're included in the second line or not, as one could make arguments for not including even the BHG, but it'd make sense to have similar groups on the same level.
Additionally, what about non-House military? Will we let Pirate IDs make demands on CR Nyxes, and Coalition Gunboats? Then there's Reapers of Sirius, GMG Paramilitary, Guild Core, and Artificial Intelligence.
I know it's hard to come up with a good definition or set of terms for that clause. I'll give it a shot, though

That could be one, however it's a tad complex, and doesn't account for Junker piracy. Quasilawful does include UC, Hogosha, AI, and Zoner non-trade ships, though. To simplify, Corporate IDs could be given their own category (thus having Lawful, Quasilawful, Unlawful, and Corporate), but that would require most other IDs to be edited. That aside, it would then be cut down to this

These are just suggestions, and are open to input
"You see what your knowledge tells you you're seeing. ... how, what you think the universe is, and how you react to that in everything you do, depends on what you know. And when that knowledge changes, for you, the universe changes. And that is as true for the whole of society as that is for the individual. We all are what we know, today. What we knew yesterday, was different; and so were we."
