Server Rules Contradiction

[Xoria]

The current rules :

5.3 Attacking characters of level 29 and below is prohibited. Characters under level 30 cannot be attacked by players of any level, except if they have non-Civilian ID onboard, and except cases of self-defense.

6.8 Civilian ID that is given to beginning freelancers allows to attack:

- For players below level 30: players of similar level below level 30, or any players above level 30.
- For players between level 30 and 39: any players of level 30 and above.
- For players of level 40 and higher: using Civilian ID is illegal, no PvP allowed.

As I understood it, the results of the big debate we had back in January/February was that non-civilian IDs could be attacked within roleplay even if they were level 5. Civilian ID's could not be attacked by anyone as long as they were under level 30 (not even other civilians). I didn't agree with that rule change, but I lost the debate so I won't restart it here.

To better reflect that rule change, the server rules should say :

5.3 Attacking characters of level 29 and below is prohibited unless they have a non-Civilian ID onboard, and except in cases of self-defense. Characters with Civilian IDs and a level of 29 and below are not permitted to attack anyone.

6.8 Civilian ID that is given to beginning freelancers allows to attack:

- For players at level 29 or below : PvP is not allowed with other players, except in the Connecticut system
- For players between level 30 and 39 : any Civilians of level 30 and above, and non Civilian IDs of any level.
- For players of level 40 and higher : using Civilian ID is illegal, no PvP allowed.

I suppose this still raises the question : should civilians be allowed to attack other civilians if they are both between level 30 and 40? I would answer no, because that basically allows civilians to behave like terrorists/pirates and rob other civilians. So, I also argue that rule 6.8 should be changed to say ( I merely reworded them above to reflect the current rules, now I am proposing an actual rule change) :

- For players between level 30 and 39 : non Civilian IDs of any level within the roleplaying guidelines; not allowed to attack other Civilian IDs except in self-defense
