Sorry but a thousand midget ships that slowly wear down my shields is a severe disadvantage, and a huge distraction.
The rule is stupid. If we declare war on a new clan we have to shift our reputation to SUIT that action? Id est what if we fight another pirate clan, what then? Oh right so we shift our rep to suit police factions. What if we are also at war with police human clans? Ridiculous.

How can you suddenly decide where Im allowed to fly and where Im not? The server belongs to all of us

Im calling BS on this one. If you want to be a pirate, the RP a pirate. If you want to attack me in the name of piracy, then you better show up red on my HUD!

Call BS on this, chum.

Nah, it belongs to Wolfpack. We're not stopping you from passing us by, but common sense dictates you shouldn't fly a gunboat past four cruisers and two fighters which are overtly hostile to your clan.

Glad you support this f2k, and Korrd too.
I'll just point out though that it also depends on your own reputations. If your characters are neutral, you'll be neutral with everyone, so House Navy, Corsairs, Outcasts and -=?=- will all show neutral, even if -=?=- become very friendly with the criminals. It's all relative, you see. I wouldn't be surprised if most AW characters are also neutral.
I'd personally be very annoyed if any of my characters were attacked by a neutral.
Role-played characters:
daedalus - Liberty Navy
bandersnatch - Ruthless criminal possessed by a (huge) alien
Shredder - Small-time Kusari pirate, looking to join the Blood Dragons
"Bounty Hunters. We don't need that scum." - Admiral Piett

I don't like it. I hate faffing about with rep as it is, without further complications. I also want the freedom to declare war on who I want, without my reputation dictating it.

I guess that by the moment you can have you rep as you want to. There is no written rule that dictates how your rep should be. It is an unwritten rule, a matter of integrity and honor.
But once the fations rep is integrated into the game reps, you will have to stick to it. :rtfm:

Newsflash: I belong to NO CLAN! Im a freelancer that goes my own way. And I do not, repeat DO NOT, want to be part of your fights
Todays incident was entirely my fault. I wasnt paying attention and did not realise that the system I was passing through was crammed full of PC ships. However, that does not give you the right to just attack me on sight, anywhere, anytime.

The guy I was shooting at had an RM tag, so it wasn't you then.
I love how you laud the cause of RP and then complain when Pirates don't play nice.
