This is Noobie 1-1....

1. What is meaning "PM", as in "PM me...."?

PM=Private message

2. What is meaning "AFK"?

Away From Keyboard

4. What's the go with "faction tags"? Understood, one can join player faction, for $$$. But I've heard mention of joining NPC factions? Howz that?

Haveing a NPC faction name in fron of your own Example" Outcasts-Joe_Smith

5. Do wrecks respawn? How often? I hope there's a rule to discourage "farming".

Yes they Respawn after Server Reboots, as for farming NPC's is Ok.

7. What's the go with Taiidan (sp.) ships? They seem pretty ordinary to me. Like the Taiidan fighter, nothing but a boxy Rogue Bloodhound, for sale in Rhineland???!!!

They Arn't tide to any one house, there here for variety.

6. Any reason why I can't form up with a Liberty dreadnought convoy? Yes my rep with them is "green", and I can form up with a cruiser convoy, etc. Bug?

There formations are already Full, theres a limit to how many ships can be in a formation b4 they start getting weird.

9. Any "gentleman's" rules with PvP? (besides none in NY and <lvl.30). Will a player announce "I shall kill you now", or just start shooting? I mean, are we talking Marquess of Queensbury or sucker punch from behind.

If you buy a capital class ship, you keep the shield given to you, don't change it out, When Pirateing, and you wish to attack, simple Announce it in your own fashion when you are attacking someone in the same system.

10. What's the etiquette with another guy's loot? I saw some guy blow up so many NPCs, the space was littered with loot, much more than he could carry. Is it rude to feed off his table scraps? Ok I wouldn't tractor the captain's lifepod or a Cerberus turret, but that worthless H-fuel would mean alot to a low-level player.

Just Ask, most people wont mind, If there holds already full.

11. Can we demand cargo from NPCs? How done? ("Ok Freelancer 3-1, here's the gate/lane parts! Please don't hurt me!" or "Right, everybody off the cruiseliner and into my hold. Its the cardamine slave-factories of Crete for you now!")

Nope, Can't boss around the NPC's, But you can kill them and steal it that way.
