Hi admin team, Can you please clarify and make it easier to understand this conflict and potential contradiction with two server rules.
==================== RULE: (S)
4.3 Docking during combat with hostiles in docking message range (15k) counts as PvP Death, except for transports. If a player combat docks in a transport they may remain in the system for the sole purpose of trading only. They may not attack anyone unless in self defense. This restriction lasts for two hours.
4.1 If you die whilst in a PVP situation, in any form, you are considered as ''PVP Dead''. A PVP Dead player must: Leave the system the fight took place in for one hour. You must not carry cargo while doing so and must not engage in any player interaction while you are leaving. Other players must allow a PVP Dead player to leave the system.
Not re-enter the system they died in on any of their characters for one hour.
Not attack the player/players they died to on any of their characters for one hour.
QUESTION:
As you can see, with rule 4.1 i've made it italic, it basically says that they have to leave the system for one hour, the player must -not- carry cargo while doing so and must not engage in any player interaction while leaving. It does not clarify if this is for all ship classes, or if it excludes transporters/frieghters/miners.
Now if we go to rule 4.3 this is more for the transporters, which basically says that if a transport docks during a pvp interaction they can undock and remain in the system, transporting for the pure purpose of trading. So that makes them eligable for piracy once more.
So with this for an example if Pirate and Trader where in the same system and Pirate demands the Trader to drop all of their cargo, the trader refuses so the pirate engages. Then the Trader manages to dock, then undocks with full regens, the pirate then demands the trader to drop all cargo, trader refuses, the pirate engages, so the trader docks and this becomes a vicious circle, is this not against the server rules. Or is it classed as a form of trolling on the pirates behalf or even the traders behalf. Is this actually allowed.
Please clarify this.
