A bit ago it was ruled, that a standing (apparently not opposed by the Lawrds of teh Lawr) agreement between Daumann and IMG - BOTH official factions representing their respective NPC counterparts entirely - was put in jeopardy due to the some folks going after RH corporate miners openly. Now IMG shunned those peeps and asked for a FR5 so that those guys would be out of IMG for good, but was refused because it was APPARENTLY lore, that IMG should start just blasting other miners outright.
I mean, back then I was like... "How short-sighted/stupid can the admin team possibly get?" - if they tell IMG| to blast miners, then we have RM on our asses. Oh wait, is it lore for RM to retaliate? Sure as hell felt like it.
In other words - How about make up your minds and either set faction can-dos and can't-dos in some neat post, thereby doing away with their diplomacy and saving some trouble.
Or knock it off with the Lawr already and intervene only if something gets REAL stupid like the Order conquering Connecticut, leaving diplomacy and consequences to RP and factions.
