1) Is it against the server rules to fly an untagged ship?
I didn't see any rules against it, so long as the ship has an ID.

2) Is it against the rules to fly, for example, a Junker ship with a tag like Interspace|Shipname? Again, I saw no rules against it.

Thanks

1) It is not as long as you carry an ID.

2) I don't know about it.

1: You're good.

2: You're good. Just don't use an official faction's tag (Most of them should be PW protected anyway).

The first one is fine, however.

You may not use the tag of an enemy vessel. So RNC cannot use LNS tag for example.
Your given example MIGHT be bordering that.

Im not sure why an Interspace pilot would use a junker ship, but if you can come up with a decent RP reason theres certainly no rule against it, just tech nerfs.

I think he means being junker with Interspace| infront of his name, probably so the cops won't stop him.

Which like Spazzy said its probably borderline.

Roleplay reason is pretty simple, he hacked his responder signal that those "long range scanners" of the metagamers detect nothing suspicial .. just a interspace vessel, can't be a smuggler.. right?

However, let us take this from another point of view. Say such things are allowed, since a smuggler is not actually hostile to the lawful forces until he is engaged, but how would others interpret this? Would this allow, say, nomad trial IDed ships to use such a naming convention for their RP?
Would this allow, say, jumping ships use house faction tags to prevent unneeded attention?

I suppose you could, just don't expect the real navy to be happy when they find you.
