I second all of the above and would like to add, that independent systems are free for everyone.
' Wrote:the theory is 100% perfect and i d basicly support deceiving with a false IFF.... BUT... why should this faction be allowed to do it? - when it makes just as much sense for an outcast to spill a corsair IFF to deceive when they invade gamma.
thats the problem there. - its like the deserting captain that joins the enemy. - yes, he "should" keep his ship and it makes sense in RP.. but we don t allow it.
Okay, another statement on this topic, because it is essential for us. You state that it does not make sense for an Outcast to move into Corsair territory with a Corsair tag to spy them out. So far this is correct. Corsairs and Outcasts are arch enemies, so it would not make sense AND there is no appropriate ID, which covers this case.
It is another thing with the MND and the Rheinland corporations: they are basically on the same side, if not allied. Due to the fact that the MND is a part of the Military and the Military is friendly with the companies, why should that be a problem?
I have already a character with MND ID and an ALG IFF. I knew that this is a sensitive topic, so I asked Virus the other day, if this would work. He told me that it is okay.
What do you fear? That some PVP whores or lolwutters will see our methods and copy it just to blast away players randomly? We have the Faction Laws for this case. Dennis or me can persecute the bad guys in this case, or you can sanction them.
