"**Powergaming: When one character forces actions against another player without giving them the chance to respond, affecting and/or interfering with the other characters roleplay."
That's exactly what happens when a k'hara uncloaks and destroys a ship in seconds. Specialy in cases already mentioned here where an ongoing RP was interrupted. It's a breach of rule 1.7 and also of 3.1, again about the insuficient time to respond.
Nomad ID is still indeed pretty tricky, because nowhere in ID it is written you are allowed to engage without any roleplay. Logicwise, "may attack freely" equals "can attack anyone". It's the very same thing, with different wording.
But then, remember that whole thing is now a loophole, since, if Green stated that Nomads can engage without any roleplay - it means ID overrides the server rules, even if it is breaking it.

Technically , Nomads do not need to communicate with humans , they don't share our morals nor require money or anything valuable to live , so a Nom buttcloaking and instakilling you is fine RP wise, I'd say. Just like FP7.

99% do already? 99% of who?
I dont, and im sure some percentage of other players dont, so saying that 99% of others do, well just don't make sense
And rain? what is this rain? does anyone have a screenshot or videos with WATER falls from the sky?!
Where is the proof of such a silly notion of rain.
We don't typically feel the need to backup long held truths and simple facts.
Nomads are silently engaged every day. And that's historically true before now and before when there was a serious attempt at.. "rping" .
And guess what there's even factions with lines that are allowed to silently engauge us as well.
The simple fact is we can blast out gibberish.. which effectively can be argued as not communicating a thing and then engage you. and there will still be a nomad or khara thread of this kind ont he forums.
Its a true as the blackness of my heart.
there should be a rule agains pointless silly threads like this. now that would be an improvement.
As much as I hate it when any of the K'Hara members engage people without RP.. (I still do hate it)
The fact that people do the very same to us, sorta makes it so I can't complain terribly much.
