Time/Date of offence: (17-08-2018)

Player/Faction accused : (RED - TANKS)

You can see it in the video at time stamp 10:20, 11:02
that their Artillery Turret clips through their tank to shoot at us.

9. Illegal Building / Spawning

You are not allowed to clip anything inside bases. For example blocks within blocks.

Possible Punishment: Removal of Structure(s) / Guilty / Ban / Loss of Game Progress

Example: Turrets

Turrets are not allowed to clip into blocks. You are allowed to use “decoy” guns/turrets but they have to be fully covered in your structure.

Outcome: Well, glad it’s history in Alpha 8.5 in 5 days but in certain angles this was clipping and the clipping rule is still active. All 5 HV Tanks built that way got removed from GG. The blueprint creator lost all of his RP and Credits.

Type of Offence Committed: (Using Filler)

Time/Date of offence: (21-08-2018)

Player/Faction accused : (RED)

Player Faction reporting: (GCGN)

The faction has been using filler nonstop in and around the RED base and OPG have done the same.

9. Illegal Building / Spawning

You are not allowed to clip anything inside bases. For example blocks within blocks.

You are not allowed to use the Filler Tool for any way of building structures. For example for covering your base with it in PvP or griefing in PvE.

All building components, including turrets, must be permanently mounted to a permanent part of the structure, however

Outcome: This was already resolved yesterday. Filling the base gaps with some filler is fine. But not the first picture. As written yesterday, the whole RED faction lost 50 RP and some filler got guilty - first occurrence.

Red using filling in their base to cover in part of a furnace in their base. Loo to the right and you can see the furnace hid in the ground.

9. Illegal Building / Spawning

You are not allowed to use the Filler Tool for any way of building structures. For example for covering your base with it in PvP or griefing in PvE.

Outcome: Nothing. Putting stuff inside terrain under the surface level is allowed and fine.
For that reason you have to destroy the Land Claim Device.
The Filler tool rule is only in place and valid for stuff like this (filling devices etc. above the terrain level with dirt):

Filler tool for defense stand

Update: Removed dirt from the hangar to comply until new rules are established. So recently some of us have gotten warnings from Rexx by using the filler tool for filling dirt over blocks on bases. [image] The base in my case is not invincible. People can shoot what is under the dirt when its not rendered beyond 200m. Only until players get really close up does the dirt render. The dirt can be destroyed like any other dirt using an HV. My dirt protects a hangar entrance which an enemy can easi…

Player/Faction accused : (OPG)

Player Faction reporting: (GCGN)

That’s to Red for the video, of the Guns on OPGS base the core of it. You can see the guns clipping through the wall from the core of the base.

9. Illegal Building / Spawning

You are not allowed to clip anything inside bases. For example blocks within blocks.

Possible Punishment: Removal of Structure(s) / Guilty / Ban / Loss of Game Progress

Example: Turrets

Turrets are not allowed to clip into blocks. You are allowed to use “decoy” guns/turrets but they have to be fully covered in your structure.

Outcome: Nothing. Can’t see anything in the video and checking myself ingame the turrets do not clip as far as I can see.

Outcome: See two posts above - everything under the terrain level is covered by the Land Claim Device anyways. The objective is to destroy the Land Claim Device first.

Time/Date of offence: (23-08-2018)

Player/Faction accused : (AAA)

Player Faction reporting: (RED)

What happened? Two AAA players come to the Golden globe and build illigal bases with clipping turrets.

Outcome: Clipping is a known rule. But I would appreciate, really appreciate if you could either stop PvP the next 4 days or stop this rule witch hunt, ruining not only your fun but also mine. In Alpha 8.5 it’s fixed.
The AAA player lost 50% of his RP.

Type of Offence Committed: Clipping Base Blocks

Time/Date of offence: 8-23-18 6 pm Central us

Player/Faction accused : TAW

Player Faction reporting: PKA

Was raiding TAW trio of bases on Iceworld and found that 2 bases had blocks clipping into each other.

Clipping Blocks

Blocks with 1 base deleted
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1490552719

Outcome: Don’t see much on the 2 screenshots. Such issues are best verified with the “di” command and ID comparison.

Type of Offence Committed: Intentional Glitching

Time/Date of offence: 8:00-9:00 p.m. EST 08/24/2018

Player/Faction accused : RED & OPG
Player Faction reporting: GCG, SAD, A.S

What happened? Forced their Offline Protection to activate almost or as soon as they got offline as to circumvent the timer.

Why did it happen? They use it to cheat the activation timer as to stop an offline raid.

Evidence: https://www.dropbox.com/s/yxjlxw7ebic5js3/2018-08-25%2003-03-56.flv?dl=0

The outcome: (Our Verdict, within 24 hours-Check back to see this updated and what action was taken)

Outcome: I said it 3 times to all of you already but I repeat the last final time: russians or any player are/is technically NOT able to influence the offline protection (OP) in ANY way! All of your slander that they cheat about it is blatant lie and accusations which are next time punishable.
This is a reproduced bug which occures for everyone, we have reported to Eleon and is hopefully fixed with Alpha 8.5. If not we consider to turn off OP completely in the 8.X season because it does not make any sense then.

Type of Offence Committed: HWS captured Ships

Time/Date of offence: 26/08/2018 all night long probably

Player/Faction accused: [A.S.] - [SXH] - [GCG]

Player Faction reporting: OPG

What happened? Logged in and found a lot of HWS captured ships on our golden globe base

Rule Violated: Using over limits ships with the intent of HWS capturing it

Evidence: (Screens/Video/logs)

The outcome: The punishment for HWS fake limit ships is automatically applied. Everything else is legal — topic: sponge ships. We allow this since resources got wasted to create these ships.

@RexXxuS

Limit abuse : If you place structures with the intent that HWS will capture it to attack enemies, you will be punished.
A penalty which involves Credits and RP (per the buyback formula) will apply to you if it was set to private and will apply to all faction members if it was set to faction.

What happened? Player Sephroh dying again and again. You can see it on his screen

Outcome: Your screenshot is very bad showing nothing / was dealt with already! But checking the logs again I see the first lesson was not learned.

50% credits + all RP lost + guilty + Prison for one day.

**Type of Offence Committed:**Op4 “camping” starter area with base

Time/Date of offence: 6:00 server time and possibly longer

Player/Faction accused : Op4

Player Faction reporting: ACP - Ranzeth

**What happened?**Op4 was camping the start points of Lawless Cyro Starter - with svs and a base I believe.

**Why did it happen?**It’s Op4 tradition?

Evidence:

The outcome:

1. it is legal to camp as long as you don’t have 50 playhours in the new season (check rule 2.1)
2. but we will update the Prisons to be able to warp back to the Clone Chamber and pick another Biome. Just in case.
3. I implemented (because of overcrowded) the command “egs:spawn” also on Alliance-Cryo and Lawless-Cryo to be able to spawn once a free tiny SV to leave the planet fast.
4. If all of that sucks but you still want Lawless as Origin: just reset to Prototype and decide for Lawless at the Decision POI. Then you get teleported to Lawless-HQ => PvE

Server: EU

Type of Offence Committed:
7.1 Do not tackle other ships with your ships! This notion of ‘tackling’ is considered an exploit, and is an ILLEGAL tactic when used intentionally to disable or hinder movement of a vessel.

Time/Date of offence: 22:53 - 22:56 15-09-2015

Player/Faction accused: [RED] Darkside

Player Faction reporting: GCGN

What happened? Darkside tackled Goblin when entering into donator planet atmosphere of EARTH2.
You can see Goblin warped into the sector at the start and the tackles start at [1.20 on the video] in the atmosphere while goblin was entering our planets to prevent him from entering.

Why did it happen? The intention was to chase Goblin into our atmosphere and stop him dead in his tracks by bumping him like a whale from the underside to stop him reaching the planet before the server restart.

Please see time slot 1.20 on the video to see Darkside hitting Goblins ship and the speed drops right down on each contact.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/fqxesigxi2kdyo8/2018-09-15%2023-41-33.flv?dl=0

Outcome: Athmospheres in Empyrion are buggy. If you leave your cockpit, you die. If you dock, you die. If you see 1:18 you get stuck even from full speed to 0. That way Darkside could catch up and used you as break. Also make sure to check the full spectrum of the tackling rule:

@RexXxuS

Last but not least this rule only applies if you get forcefully pinned down for a long time so the enemy can destroy your ship while you can’t do anything.

Type of Offence Committed: fly turrets on hv

Time/Date of offence: 02/10/2018

Player/Faction accused: FCE

Player Faction reporting: RED

What happened? fly turrets on hv

Outcome: As @Israel_T-C said: the ships were originally designed as battlements. You shot them down and claim now floating turrets…

After further investigation:
All of these HVs were the same blueprint — battlements as I said

Destroyed 02.10. from 9-11pm from OPG and RED

The pilots from the attack were almost RED

Last but not least, to stop wasting my time with such silly stuff I reference our HWS Rules:

Everyone from RED lost 50 RP.
All 10 Pilots from yesterday are set to guilty and their Recycle Level is back to 1 again.
