Quote:5.7 A player who was killed in a PvP fight must not enter the system where the fight took place with any of the characters on his/her account(s) until four hours have passed from the time of his/her destruction.
If the player respawns in the same system, he/she must leave the system within 10 minutes of his destruction without attacking anyone, except in self-defense. Other players are not allowed to attack one who is leaving.
Transports/Freighters which have been killed in a PvP fight may return to the system in which they were destroyed but only for purposes of moving through the system or for trade within that system. They may only act in a purely defensive manner. This exemption applies only to players who are in the system for the purposes of trading and does not apply to mining, piracy or any other activity.
Alright, I think this rule has a problem.
Today, we caught a slaver in Tau 37 and forced him to dock. He promptly undocked and stated that this rule allows him to move on to the next system. So he used this rule to deliver his slaves to Alpha anyway.
As the rules are worded now, this is indeed allowed, but are we really prohibited from engaging him again?
Because for me this doesn't make any sense.
I propose to change it as follows:
Quote:If the player respawns in the same system, he/she must leave the system within 10 minutes of his destruction without attacking anyone, except in self-defense, and without carrying any cargo. Other players are not allowed to attack one who is leaving.
hmm. I already thought it would be like this. I was kinda worried though, because he said he was protected by the rule and because of this: "Other players are not allowed to attack one who is leaving." I thought he was right.
Yeah I had the same thing happen when I caught a pirate transport with loot. He docked and said he can leave with his cargo, that I can't attack again for 10 minutes. Rule wording sure makes it sound that way.
' Wrote:But does this apply to lawful ships, who aren't pirating? As well, it certainly sounds as if a pirate can simply camp outside a station for a couple hours and continuously pirate a few dozen times...
