I encountered a pirate today who was green (friendly). He did have a pirate ID, but I was under the impression that you could not attack people that are not at least neutral.
Is that a mistaken impression on my part, or did I just run into a rules violation?
More info is available, but I don't want to name until, and unless, I have a ruling that requires it.
We all have an Angelic and a Demonic side. Use of them determines good or evil in the end.
Was he green to you? Because there's a difference between what you see him as, and what he sees you as.
Well.. at least when I try to remember how Rep works..
EDIT: Welp, what the others said. I can't seem to make my brain to work properly today.
You can be pirated by a pirate ID. It is the ID that sets rules and not your rep. In your case, you might have had a FL ID/IFF and he would have had a FL IFF.

No, that is not breaking the rules. IFF is simply NPC relations. It's only against the rules to attack your fellow faction members (going by ID) unless there's a damn good reason.
Thank you for the clarification. I misunderstood what factions were in the PvP context.
That being the case, I find myself in violation of the server rules and throw myself on the mercy of the admins. In a fit of pique, because of the above misunderstanding, I logged. I throw myself on the mercy of the court.

Was his name Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyll-llantysiliogogogoch? <--- psst, I was trialing my own character by forum And also I really hope you copy/pasted the name of that town and didn't know it by heart
DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Anyways, these things happen. It's confusing, there are pro's and con's to having a generic unlawful IFF. I'm actually all for it, because I constantly keep getting rulebooked by random people in PM's because of my IFF.
