RE: The sanction of the Hess/Bret Combined Forces BattleGroup

[Petitioner]

So it's okay for Rogues and the Navy to team up to fight the Hellfire Legion as long as they don't group?
What about Outcasts and Corsairs versus the Core in Eta? The Wild and the Military versus the LWB?

If groups are an inRP device, then make it impossible to break RP. You can only group with someone with your own IFF. Until then, I see no reason to treat groups as an in-RP device.

If they were all on Teamspeak with each other, they would still be coordinating in secret, despite their characters' inRP differences. But they aren't grouped. Is that okay? If it is, what's the difference? If not, how do you plan to monitor that sort of thing? What if it's two organized groups (of unofficials, shall we say, for argument's sake) whose leaders are on non-faction characters, and are grouped with each other, monitoring the battle and issuing commands to squadron leaders through PM? That's an even more organized and most definitely OORP way to conduct a battle, but they're not grouped or visibly "allied", unless "fighting common foes" counts as allying now, regardless of group status.

If I gave you too much food for thought, be sure not to eat too quickly. You'll throw up and it'll just be unpleasant.
