Hi all,

My Googlefu sucks I think because I'm struggling to find answers to what I should imagine are questions that have been asked many times before.

If I could get a bit of info from some kind folks that would be awesomeness incarnate!

1. Currently our standings aren't high enough to join the militia we want to. We're looking at a temporary kick of the members with really poor standings so we can join the militia, followed by them rejoining again once we've done so. Would this work, or are the standings a requirement for staying in the militia as well as joining it?

2. If this would not work, does the same 7 day derived standings timer apply as with everything else meaning people with bad standings would have 7 days to hardcore the FW side of things to get their standings up?

3. Am I correct in my thinking that being in your allied high sec empire space is pretty safe from the opposing faction militias? I should imagine the navies shoot at them and they aren't allowed to dock there?

4. If we have a member in the corp/alliance who currently cannot enter the space of the militia faction we want to join due to having -5 standings with that particular empire (shot on site by navies, criminal popup messages, the usual, etc...), will the corp/alliance joining in the militia for that faction essentially cancel out their bad standings allowing them to move as normal through that space?

5. If they can't move as normal through technically hostile empire space, they will have to hardcore FW sites until their standings are better. Will their negative standings cause the NPC rats to shoot at them while defending FW sites despite being in an allied militia?


Thank you for any help offered!

If you are part of an alliance all corps must have positive standings. Members can have negative standings but if a corp drops below zero you will receive a warning and your whole alliance will get kicked out after 48hours unless you have solved the issue. Highsec is not really safe if you are in FW since the navy can be tanked. And I believe that members with bad standings will benefit from corp standings and can enter your factions highsec space.
