Clarification on Official Faction tags

[Arioch]

Hey all -

It's that time again, for rules clarification! Seems there has been some confusion surrounding whether or not you need to use your official faction's tag when you are in the official faction/carrying the official player faction ID. Many of you old timers will think "Well that's obvious" but hey, there are new players and after some recent conversations, some were confused about it (Even I was).

So let's clear it up officially -

You are not required, by server rules, to have the Faction Tag of the Official Player Faction you are in. BUT, you are required to have the Official Player Faction ID equipped if you are in that official faction.

EDIT: We're allowing a one month grace period for factions to get all their ID's situated. April 18th is the final date to do this.

Many faction leaders will impose their own internal rules that if you're in the faction, you need to carry the tag, but this is not server rules and thus you won't be sanctioned for it. Also too, by not having the tag, you won't count towards your faction's activity, as that is not tracked through the ID, but through your faction tag.

As such, I have updated and included that information here in the Faction Creation Rules.

Thanks, and have fun!
