=CR=Tuareg has been warned due to a report posted on January 28 for : In system chat after a Junker demanded 1000 cargo :
"// I wont feel bad if what ur doing is sanctioned"
"// Im gonna have to ask an admin if what you are doing is legal"
Quote:3.4 Out-of-character (OOC) chat should not be used for system chat. Using out-of character in roleplaying chat should be marked with "OOC".
Quote:3.5 Attempts to pose as admins, threatening players with sanctions, attempts to interpret rules are not allowed. Applying to admin's name without prior consent of the admin is not allowed.
Consequences : Warned.
Quote:3.8 Sanctions for violating conduct rules range a credit/equipment fine to placing inside the prison system, unless specified otherwise in the appropriate rule. Sanctions for violating rules of conduct (other than 3.1 and 3.2) can be used only after the player was warned about the violation, but ignored the warning.
Comments / Instructions : Next time it will be 10% of your credits for each line of OOC chat. And since I'm an Admin, I can satisfy the curiosity that could have been sated by simply reading the Junker's ID before lecturing him : Junkers can pirate, but the IMG cannot go OOC in system chat.
I didnt know Junkers are allowed to pirate casue I never saw it, now I do. I didnt memorise evey single ID and Im not going to do it now either.
Why didnt I check his ID then ? Cause he shot the tradelane right next to plannet Berlin and it was 15 seconds to mooring fixture safety, while a guy in a huge ship was wildly firing his turrets.
I didnt rule lawyer, I said I was gonna check if thats allowed, marking it as out of character. I read the junker ID later instead of bothering an admin. (not from the guy doing the shooting but somehwere else)
3.4: In 6 months of playing on disco I've never heard anyone complain about using // instead of ooc, in fact I've perceived it as the common practice here to which I adapted. Nobody complained at that moment either. Isnt there some yellow message saying'at least talk to the guy you want to have sanctioned before filing a report... this is a game and its suposed to be fun'? I must either have been halucinating repeatedly or now. 30% of the system chat that you see is marked with //, with or without admin in the system, and I'v never seen an admin complain about it, even when people talk to him in systemchat out of character without marking it in any way. Less than 5% of out of character chat is marked with ooc instead of //.
3.5 you arent even pretending I did any of that, so why post it? Saying I'm gonna ask an admin if that legal is hardly posing as one, nor is it interpeteing a rule, nor is it a threat... because if its legal you got nothing to fear.
Ok. So that was your budy, or you guys dont like me, or you dont like =CR= (btw I dont speak for them).
Either way this is just rediculous. If you want you can sanction me for saying that.

Do not speak out of character in system chat, ever. If you have to speak to several people nearby while in a fight, use local chat. Since you apparently said those lines while docked, use of private chat was the best option.
I suggest that you talk to your faction leader if you are still confused.
Attempting to personalize this will advance precisely : nothing. You received exactly the same warning that I have given dozens of times before in this forum for precisely the same thing.

Good thing you made clear its neither a buddy, personal, or faction issue at all.
I'm still confused about a couple of things, but most pressing question right now is:
If I send you screenshots of every person that I dont like typing 2 lines of out of character in system chat, do you promise to sanction them too?
