Is that legal?

[Daedric]

Having all engagements require only a 50% drop in shield is screenshotable and easily processed - the contexts

Actually no it isn't. It is fairly easy to have your buddy shoot your shields down and claim self defense.

The 50% shield rule is there so that people know when they are free to defend themselves from an attacker without having to type out role play.

As in, a pirate who stops a trader and is typing his demand, the trader quickly tells him to suck it and opens fire. Once the pirates shields drop below 50% (better screen it!), he is free to kill the trader without making a demand. Problem is, without screening that 50% or less shields the pirate is likely to get burned.

If you don't agree or want an admin's opinion on it. Use the search feature and do some reading. It has been discussed multiple times before. Using common sense also helps, but it seems you don't think so. Ashame that I am quoting an admin when I say that.
