PLEASE READ ALL RULES BEFORE DOWNLOADING THE EXPANSION!
Date is last update:5/29/2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rules: Everyone who wants to play register w/ the freelancer roleplay forum (ie post) using your characters name. as a character on this server u have to choose a path and stay with it the entire time. Each player is expected to be polite even to enemies. this is a friendly server, No Swearing!
Factions: Each player chooses a faction. each faction has ship restrictions, ally restrictions and player killing restrictions. to join a faction, use the prefix for your faction infront of your alias. the alias is found beside yoru faction discription
ex: if i choose corsairs i would be [COR]pneumonic81.
DO Not TRANSFER MONEY BETWEEN YOUR DIFFERENT CHARACTER!!! I woulnd have assumed this was pretty freaking obviouse, but for some poepel I guess not. if your cought transfereing money i will ban u!
Player Killing: No PK in liberty space. police have additional rules. Factions cannot pk there own team. each faction has additional PK restrictions.
ex: if i choose corsairs i would be [COR]pneumonic81. i would be unable to kill any other player w/ a [COR] in front of there name.
Allies: these are the alliances need to be in character for your choosen faction. all alliances must be at least 0 nuetral by level 20.
Police special PK rules: Police may attack ANY player, including cops and navy, in ANY system, if they are found to be comining a crime. ie attacking convoys, pirateing loot or carring contraban. additionally, if the confict occures in liberty space, the criminal MAY NOT return fire, but must flee.
Navy special PK rules: Navy allowed to kill ONLY units carring cantraban in Liberty. contraban is cardmine or artifacts, THEY CANNOT KILL IN LIBERTY TO DEFEND UNITS like police can.
this rule preserves the police and navy character, and also preservs the use of liberty space as a safe haven, unless your commiting a crime.
additional police and navy rules:
Police and Navy are not to carry contrban of any kind. If a navy player destroeys a ship and contrabn is left behind as loot, the plyer must destroy it to rid the galaxy of its use. if a police or navy player is cought w/ this cargo, they will recieve the sutomary warning asking them to delete there account or be banned. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ships

Freelancers: [FREE] [TRAD]Freelancers are a little bit of everything. peopel who want to be able to occationally haul some loot, or be hired to deal w/ a local problem. this gives freelancer pilots a wide variety of ships to choose from, but unfortuntly makes them less popular w/ the criminal elements.
Ships: Britonia, kusari, liberty, rhineland, civilian fighters and freighters. Allies:all freelancer, police, navy, mining, shipping and bounty hunter PlayerKilling: cannot kill any police or navy
Bounty Hunters: [BH] the police forces hired guns. when there is a criminal u just cant catch, call the bounty hunters!
Ships: bounty hunter, civilian and pirate. Allies: bounty hunter, police PlayerKilling: cannot kill any police or navy
Mercenaries: [MERC] Mercenaries have been around in many forms for thousands of years. mercs are the hired guns of the navy often times. hired to hunt down larger elements and military targets. sometiems hired to bolster a navy formation. but also hired by civilan traffic for escort duty and so on.
Ships: border world, civilain, pirate, and bounty hunter. Allies: navy and police PlayerKilling: cannot kill navy or police
Corsairs: [COR] Corsiars are probably the largest criminal organization in the siruis sector. soem of there ships are the most feared. naturally this makes them an enemy of any law abiding faction. drug and artifact smuggling is common place among the corsairs
ships: corsair, pirate, and civilian. allies: corsairs PlayerKilling: cannot kill corsairs
Outcasts: [OUT] Outcasts are the second largest criminal organization, and have allied them selves w/ many of the local hoods. drug trafficing is a staple for these thugs.
Ships: border world, pirate, and civilian. Allies: outcasts, lane hackers, liberty rouges, GC PlayerKilling: cannot kill outcasts
Pirates: [PIR] Pirates are just that. if your on a trip, watch your loot. pirates will hack the trade lanes and ambush a lonly free trader. Better hire a merc for escort duty!
Ships: border world, pirate, civilian. no dromedary. Allies: lane hackers, liberty rouges PlayerKilling: can kill anyone
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Support: There would be a forum and a server to support the role play. The forum can be used for fiction as well as advertising your characters services, for example as a Freelancer/Mercenary you could advertise your services as an Escort Service. Also as a Mercenary/Freelancer you could advertise a gun for hire. 
NOW OBVIOUSLY THIS WOULD BE ON THE HONOR SYSTEM. player would need to police themselves. if the admins are told of an indiescresion, which is confirmed, then the users account will be deleted. I'm sure it wont come to that.
-------------------------------------------------------
Breaking the rules:
If you are caught cheating you will be confronted by one of the 4 admins. They include Chuan, Pneumonic81, Vichama, and Westworld. Below list the charge and the appropriate action that will take place.
1st offense, you will be instructed to leave the server, voluntarily delete the offending character, start over, disable your cheat, and reapply the current official mod. If you refuse you will be banned.
2nd offense, if you are caught again you will be banned PERMANENTLY. No questions asked. Go directly to jail do not collect $200. Enough said.
3rd offense, there won't be a third offense. In my opinion this post should serve as your only warning and you should be banned right off the bat.
Cheaters:
Cheaters are people who do not use our mod on our server, or use a different mod to give them some benefit. If a cheater is found and confirmed this person will NOT recieve a warning. They will be banned on the spot.
Choose your Faction and Choose your Fate.......
