Is this breaking rule 5.8?

[monmarfori]

To clarify C broke rule 5.8

C is aware who B is and is not allowed to engage that character (and vice versa)

That said since B is not aware of who C is he would not be breaking a rule if he engaged first unless C told B in advance on who he was. Of course if B does know who C is then they are both maliciously breaking 5.8 if they decided to fight anyway.

Nothing in the rules says C can't attack B, nor that B can't attack C. The player behind A and C is on a different character to the one he killed B on in the first place, so B is free to engage him. Where you got the idea that C can't engage B I have no idea.

Admin confirmation:

• Scenario 2: I, LHI|Gheis.Mace, kill LR-Contrived.Name in California. I then, before the two hours are up, switch to OSI-Resolute captained InRP by Gheis Mace, and am engaged by LR-Contrived.Name in a separate interaction. Because the ship names are not notably similar (LHI|Gheis.Mace v OSI-Resolute), I cannot expect LR-Contrived.Name to have known I was the same person - or even the same character - and so no violation of reengagement has occurred. Because I'm notably different as well, LR-Contrived.Name can assume I've logged off and return to California if he so wishes.

So that means I can get on my Sair to hunt some hessians; including some who were killed on my RM char. Thanks!
