How is this kind of RP allowed?

[Darius]

The status quo isn't broken, it's just slightly changed. If the person in question wanted to make a reasonable change then the roleplay in question would have been done much slower and over a longer period of time, all while remaining in the Navy. If you want an example of such a scenario, Rogue One offers a good example with the Death Star shenanigans.

This roleplay also doesn't actually make it challenging for lawfuls to play or roleplay, but on the contrary it opens up a number of ways that people can freely leak stuff to if they disagree with one aspect of the faction, something that has been already mentioned here in this thread. You are kidding yourself if you think that 2 bounties will be on par with the amount of damage (read: memes) that the thread generates beyond a few logs, but that's the best lawfuls can do in an environment where permakills don't exist.

Jaycee and Loken summed it up pretty well: just ignore the thread or use it to justify whatever it is your character is doing, but don't take it serious to the point where it impacts a ton of roleplay.
