In game ship names

Well, if they dont have tag, they are so called "indies". Pretty everyone can be one of them. You just need a few bribes and/or few missions. So even even someone who started playing today, dont know english and rules can be member of NPC faction like Outcast/Corsairs/Rouges. Tagged characters are members of official PLAYER faction. Its pretty hard to get into them, you need a lot of RP experience and if you get inside you have to RP.
Result: You can expect a good RP from a player wearing official faction tag but that dont neccesarily means that all tagles players want only your money.

Another note: If you are/want to be good RPer, you should have the basic encouter RP learned already. Like, i am traveling that way and there is a chance i meet xx,yy,zz faction or said "indies. Okay xx are friendly so i should say at least hello to themm maybe chat for a while. YY are neutral so hello and few other lines before i fly past them. Oh there are all so ZZ guys, those are my enemies so i should prepare some defensive/ofensive RP and/or get ready to be blasted/run.
Yeah, i see some tagless guys they can be enemies or friends. Well when i meet them i decide if i shoud use XX-RP/YY-RP/ZZ-RP.

EDIT: If you are even better RPer, you should be able to think up half decent RP In that one or two minutes of encounter
