1. RULES OF ENGAGEMENT
NO COMBAT LOGGING. There are no exceptions. Logging out during combat is prohibited in all forms and against all enemies.All combat-kitted ships ranked Competent and above are valid targets. Good judgment should be employed so as to avoid griefing.
No killing or attacking our allies. If it happens by mistake, be prepared for reimbursement or sacrificial retaliation.
Do not persistently attack Commanders who are not deemed KoS.
In self-defense, only the first point in ROE is relevant.
In Anarchy, the first point in ROE still applies and good judgment should still be employed so as to avoid griefing.
In times of war, a special ROE may be published. Look to your WC or DWC for orders.
Piracy:
Piracy is strictly forbidden as it does not fit within the ideals of Black Mesa and its members.
PowerPlay:
Black Mesa is an independent faction and does not actively or collectively participate in PowerPlay.
Warnings and Expulsion:
For a certain set of serious violations, our policy is to warn for the first offense and expel from the wing for a second offense.
Actions that can result in a warning to include, but are not limited to: combat logging; use of a racial slur; repeated aggressive/disruptive behavior on any communications channels.
Any member in a leadership position that receives a warning will be subject to a review and potential demotion back to the ranks.
In addition, actions that are cause for immediate removal include: acting for another group considered hostile; making real life threats to any other player; engaging in any illegal behavior such as DDoS or doxing.
Particularly egregious violations, as well as any actions outside of those listed above, will be dealt with on a case by case basis at the discretion of the WC/DWC with consultation with relevant SL/FL.
