Faction jurisdiction

[MarcelKuyl]

After much thinking I voted no.

I am not sure that any clan will have the resources, manpower and the will to police multiple systems. To guard a system like f.ex New Tokyo would ideally need 3 to 4 clanmembers to be there at all times to intercept any player passing through it, not to mention the jumpholes.
If done right a clan needs at least 6 active players for each claimed system to have any believeable police'ing powers. This however would limit gameplay as players rarely be able to leave systems when they are on guardduty for a certain system.

Clansystems and adjacent systems can be guarded more easily and with much less impact on gameplay, clanmembers can venture out more in support of affiliate NPC and players factions on a broader base. Jurisdiction therefor should be limited to player ID's in RP rule-set. Lawfull vs Pirates/criminals/smugglers.

All actions or engagements should however be announced b4 the attack, I have personally been destroyed 2 times without prior warning from the attacking player. If you dont want me there give me a chance to leave in peace or ask for a tax/fine appropriate to the offence I have displayed. Rules and conduct should be uphold at all times unless 1 faction is in a full scale war with another, then anything goes. But if a player is hostile but not from a faction you are in war with at least a attack announcement would be nice....

my 2 cents...
