Yeah, simple question.

If as an indie player for example, I fly around as [LN]Cpt.Awkright and started roleplaying as a captain in the LN as such is that illegal?

I ask this since it can be... easy to smear a faction this way while within the rules... sadly.

Are Faction Tags illegal to play with while not a part of them?

what's the point of tags, if anyone can have them? by using a tag, you announce that you are a member of said faction. they have 2 purposes, the way i see it:

1 - /fi
2 - ingame time counter

and thats about it. until we as a community introduce and start using a system that does this based on for example ID's, tags stay and are off limits to non-faction ships.

Also, you can be metagamed with tags on. 8-|

You're right. Its funny to see a system full of people empty out 10 seconds after three Reavers jump in.

On the topic, yes it is against the rules and there were admin notifications for renaming.
