If its being surprise ganked by a fellow militia member that has you up in arms, maybe you should fit your merlin with more tank and dps and fewer warp core stabs?

The issue is that you as a militia member can't fire first because you'll take a large faction hit. So Adolf always has the tactical advantage. You can fire first on pirate alts.

The conventional solution is to join a FW player corp and then war dec his corp, but that would require everybody in militia to do so to stop him from continuing to use this "feature".

By George I think we are on to something now..

You know there's a difference between engagement mechanics for pirates and fellow militia members.. right?

This.

Not to mention non-FW pirates don't receive the benefits of being FW.

Most corps in FW would drop the next day if there would be a requirement of even 0.0 standings for each member. All it would be left would be rping ******

Also asuming someone you don't personally know is not gonna be hostile because he is blue or purple is so naive that it brings me to tears. Awoxing is and has always been an integral part of eve.

You say this as if maintaining positive standings is somehow difficult, when it's really quite simple.

That's why most corps deal with awoxers by shrugging and letting them continue.

Also we need to be able to kill the multitude of farm alts created by the devious squids that try so fervently to steal our hard earned LP.

Confirming that the colors just exist to make the game "prettier".
