Quote: 3.1 An attack is any hostile action that drains shields to less than 50%. Saying "Engaging" is not sufficient and aggressors are not allowed to destroy a ship before allowing sufficient time to respond. If a player is attacked he has the right to defend himself regardless of who is attacking. Trading nanobots, shieldbatteries or other ammo and equipment during a fight is also considered taking an active role in the engagement.
Consequences:
You can't just shoot people without saying a word. This is a role playing server and you are expected to role play. Even with role play, the Liberty Navy is not hostile to Kishiro. Most of the equipment on your ship has fallen off, and there is a sanction notice in your hold.
