Admin Notice: Ship purchase restrictions

[Sturmwind]

No you rep up to LN first without dropping the BHG tag. Then once Ln is full green you drop reps till the Ln is your tag, then you buy the guardian. The way it should be done anyway. Ship comes after rep.

I see. I hope accidentally screwing up with the /droprep won't make me loose my ship, though.

Also, I would like to note that my first question remains unanswered:

Hypothetical scenario: I'm a Freelancer, but I want a Manta. I rep and ID my ship as a Freelancer one, then request a permission of usage from the BHG, as it's a white cell issue. Once granted, do I have to summon an admin to give me a Manta or I'll be able to buy it regardless of the permission while only red cell ships have to admin-given?
