re: [itan] rules of engagement reassessment

greetings

the coalition of [itan] is currently reassessing it's official non-agression list. if your guild wishes to enter a non-agression pact with [itan], please contact any [itan] officers or council to discuss the matter.

the coalition of [itan] (coalitionofitan.org) also has a diplomatic section wich you can use to contact [itan] for any matter.

here are the general rules:

you are not on the aggression list if you are:

- an itani pilots, unless known to be a fellon
- uit pilots with favorable itani standing
- any member of a registered guild in our non-agression list

you are on the aggression list if you are:

- itani-hated or worse
- a serco not affiliated with a guild on the non-agression list, regardless of itani standing

about noob pilots: the coalition of [itan] makes no specific cases for noob pilots. the coalition knows too well that false identity are being used to gain certain advantages. if you have low levels but find yourself in a hard corner, it is left to the jugement of the [itan] pilot to assess your threat level and act on it. no reprimand exist on such cases and [itan] pilots are free to use any means necessary to deal with targets.

[itan] pilots are allowed, at their discretion, to swarm when their obvious rocket/missile platform (eg, a rag) is attacked.

[itan] pilots are free to act upon any seemingly dangerous situation in any way seen fit.

[itan] pilots are expected to assist, unless otherwise and previously agreed upon, a fellow pilot in combat situation. most particularly in itani space.

[itan] does not, at this moment, have operations in uit space nor does it plan to.

[itan] keeps it's non-aggression list private.

serco-only guilds need not waste their time with the non-aggression list.

Hmmm...
- itani-hated or worse. Check
- a serco not affiliated with a guild on the non-agression list, regardless of itani standing. Check

The Shedu guesses he'll have to stop being so nice to Itan.

You're on everyone's KOS list, you sad sack of melodramatic s***.

Hum. Clickable link for your webpage, courtesy of Shades of Red. Seriously, the Itani should get with the groove and embrace technology. Energy focus only takes you so far.

Swarms huh hmmm So Umm what kind of guild is this again?? Funny since that is mentioned Watching my own eyes Itan members swarming others just for fun...

hahha pick on poor noobs LMAO! NEXT!

you are on the aggression list if you are:

- itani-hated or worse

Ive also seen Itan Members Shoot other pilots who have admire itani faction....Was attacked because he had a tag which said CLM funny seeing 3 members attacking on one pilot and seeing your 3 members getting whooped! even when one using swarms

No offense UpperCase im stating my opinion and what I have seen and witnessed ITAN has become nothing but a disgrace to the Itani nation.

The Itani Nation is a disgrace to the Itani Nation.

Toshiro that is a rude comment.
There are other Itanis not affiliated with ITAN guild.

And that kind of a comment comming from a serco who cant even perform normal human functions without implants is way too presumptuous.

Funny how in a dreary, tired condition I seem to be able to read better than you Demonor.

"Ive also seen Itan Members Shoot other pilots who have admire itani faction....Was attacked because he had a tag which said CLM"

You happened to miss:
"- an itani pilots, unless known to be a felon"

Do I need to even bother to expose the weakness in your other arguments, or does everyone already see that you're an idiot?

on a personal note, i think smitty lost the last elections based on higiene. but that's beside the point. we all end up doing long trips in space once in a while. eh.

demonor, i'm only stating the obvious. these "rule of engagements", wich are not "orders", have been in effect for long. stop being elitist. we all admire your piloting skills but your diplomatic prowesses require a bit of work. and btw, a noob in b8 downing unrats are by no means real noobs. we all can agree to that. and given we dont organize noob hunts (or hunts of any kind actually), there's little chance of actual noobs being shot at.

as for everyone, the council and the forums are there to discuss any issues or questions you might have regarding being, or not being, on the targets list.

there are actually very few itani fellons at this point so that was mostly a warning to those itani with... questionable behavior.

i've also heard about an [itan] member swarm incident in b8 that is questionable itself. the council is looking into that. there is *lots* of internal communication in [itan]. this is one reason it makes our guild function.

see you in space.

or not.

Probably not, since those 3 or 4 [SKV] guys are about as active as I am. When will we see another well-executed [SKV] blockade?
Oct 12, 2006 jexkerome link
When was there ever a well-executed SKV blockade?
Oct 12, 2006 Will Roberts link
or just a well-executed [SKV].
Oct 12, 2006 Dr. Lecter link
Well, there's been a well executed [SKV] anytime [SKV] and the old [SCAR] bumped heads (exactly how the first [SKV] blockade wound up in tatters, fyi).

OOC:
SKV Ukari blockade was great fun.
Some players were angry, some really enjoyed it. Whoever participated on either side, itani or serco, had a good time.
It made VO alive and interesting.

...a serco who cant even perform normal human functions without implants...

Untrue. The cyborgization process of Serco citizens does not take place until the patient is fully developed (physically), and has had the chance to mate. Until then (or for however long the individual wishes), the citizen retains full anatomic congruence with non-advanced humanoids.

However, to become a member of the warrior caste (ooc: forgive me for being imprecise, I don't remember how it was called exactly, and I'm currently unable to look it up), a Serco citizen is required to undergo advancement processes.

Thus, a Serco citizen having undergone advancement processes is actually in some cases not able to perform specific actions inherent to non-advanced beings at all, due to the cybernetic equipment. There is an ongoing debate about the effects this has or might have on human nature, but as such purely academical in nature and not open to the public.

As an event, it was a hoot. As a real blockade, it was a disaster. Niki's piracy has stopped more traders than that blockade did. Hell, Ayn's antics have stopped more traders than the blockade!
