I think what the OP is asking for is for a GM to set clear expectations in terms of what is wtfbannable and what is not. If what he did is in fact ban-worthy then that information needs to be shared with the community as a whole. If GMs are handing out bans for unclear or unwritten rules I see that as kind of an overreach on their part.

The saddest part of all of this is that there is a need for these rules and these threads ensue. The rules are now applied to another system because there is a group of people engaged in douchebaggery that involves killing players with characters that are less than a week old. Go off the deep end as much as you want about high sec miners and mission runners breaking and ruining Eve. But it's these people, these rookie-killing asshats, that are doing the most damage.
If I am reading GM Homonia's responses correctly f this behavior of targeting new players continues, the GMs will have to extend protections across many more systems. How far do we want to see that go? In my opinion, do not extend ANY more protections to any systems and simply perma-ban any player that targets and shoots at a rookie in any system. Do not punish the entire community because of the douchebaggery of a few. Just get rid of the few - the game is better without them.

You could always rely on common sense. The GMs are not going to define "rookie". As Homonia stated if they define "rookie" as 8 days old or less, these clowns will target 9 day old characters.
Common sense - if you have to ask, don't shoot it. Rookies are in the rookie channel for 30 days. So why not 30 days? It will be decided on a case by case basis and as such you'd better use your common sense. I know that is hard sometimes - I live in the U.S. and there is a huge lack of it here.
Common sense is hard.
Eve is hard.

1. Create new toon
2. Set course to Hek
3. Probe a mission runner
4. Steal loot
5. Report him for griefing when he shoots you<
6. Collect tears.
I am still very much in favor of improving the tutorials with a lot of info about game mechanics instead of these rules.
I considered this as well and see it as another reason why the GMs can not engrave rules into stone. What I fail to understand is why some people are so hellbent on being F'n dumb.

As with most people arguing against Tippia and getting ALL CAPS LOCK ALL THE TIME mad about it, you have no idea how misinformed you look to the rest of us. It's a good /popcorn thread at your expense, so thanks for that. As I pointed out to some other rather misinformed poster yesterday, what you see as me being "mad" is just your poorly judged assumption. I also use capslock as a form of emphasis on certain words in place of bold or italics, and because of the fact that you can't increase the font size so that the terminally stupid, illiterate and partially sighted people can read it.
Confirming I am partially sighted - please feel free to CAPS LOCK at will.
