Ahh good memories this is like the way UR was formed.
(first copple weeks in 1.8 ) A guy named Gallanoth bought a Bullpup mk III in Custodian and got busted by Spiky so he got forced to sell it on Delta the man was angry as hell and threatened to quit at the moment, i was hanging around in London doing blueprints to durham in a APC, then Gall showed upp in London and i said hi^^ and he was very upset so i thought why not make a clan so we can do shit our own way and UR was born.

Nice, tell us more about UR please.

Zool, I was a freelancer for several years before joining IOC (Independant Operators' Consortium) and so I'll give you some advice from a guy who's been there and done that:
1) If you get permission to buy a certain ship/item, TAKE A SCREEN SHOT. It'll save aggravation later when you're asked.
2) If you don't have permission and someone asks if you do, say YES anyway. Keep in mind some clans will issue Kill On Sight contracts if you are caught in this lie.
3) If you get caught and are asked to pay ship/item tax, pay it and TAKE A SCREEN SHOT so you'll have proof you paid it.
4) If you get caught and are asked to sell the ship, sell it. Otherwise, a Kill On Sight contract is highly likely.
5) The best place to ask for permission to buy ships/items is on the clan's own website (most of them have one). That way, there is a permanent record of the granted permissions.The Server Rules are one thing and should not be broken in any case. You break them and you're gone. But Clan Rules are enforced by the clans and breaking those might get you in hot water with the clan but won't (or shouldn't) get you banned. For example: during the last year of CF 1.7, I flew a Coalition Lagg or Saracen. Did I have permission? Nope. Did I pay tax on it? Nope. Did I feel justified in going around clan rules to buy it? You bet. I was a freelancer who wanted the most agile ship. I knew the risks of sneaking in and buying it. I could think of no reason why I shouldn't be allowed to fly what many consider as the best ship in the game.
If you read the Server Rules, you'll see that they were designed to make sure that no one player has an unfair advantage over any other player. If you read many Clan Rules, you'll see that they are designed to give unfair advantages to the clan by restricting or monopolizing high-end ships, weapons, equipment and commodities.
Most of the players here are a good bunch and enjoy blowing up each other but some take things way too seriously...and it will always be like that.

Well said, Rex.
Zool...If you ever see me online: SA_Name_ZEROTH feel free to hit me up with any questions about the game, or just to say hi. I tend to create large groups of players and help out everyone that I can. Even if i can't help, someone else in the group might be able to.
The only time i won't invite someone to group if they ask is if we're doing clan related things in group chat, or if the group is a private conversation with multiple parties.Don't let a little drama and bs caused by the few prevent you from getting to know the many.
MOST of the players here aren't nit-pickers over little things...and we make it easier when dealing with those pesky few that are.
Good flying...see you in space.
