So I'm pretty new to FW, doing some offensive plexing when I see a bunch of friendlies in local. Oh cool, they're on the gate. Oh what? They just blew me up. Oh that's interesting.
It was a 5m kestrel so no biggie but I'm curious. My corp/alliance already had them set at "terrible" standing but they showed up as friendly because they were in the Caldari militia. How do I adjust my overview settings to show them as threatening instead? |

People still assume blue means no chance of them attacking? |

It's to do with the order of your overview sorting. Higher in the list means higher priority. |

The Militia is a joke.
It needs the Navy to wipe it out.
Also: Thats a very expensive Kestrel

They actually didn't show up on my overview at all because of being in the same militia. It's set up that way to ensure I don't accidentally target a friendly in fleets and whatnot.
Is there a way to "override" this setting when a corp has a terrible standing? |

have it show people with terrible standings and drag that higher than the don't show militia (the overview goes through the state list top-down and stops when it finds an applicable state for any given pilot)

In Providence they run NRDS (Not Red Don't Shoot).
In Nullsec we run NBSI (Not Blue Shoot It).
Apparently in FW you guys run JSIA (Just Shoot It Anyway). |

My friend, make sure you always check the people in local , always. That that the majority of pvp'er do. Because like you experienced they may show up as blue but end up shooting you.
Those that show up as miltia blue but kill other nlue people are generaly either people from the allied miltia ( amarr in your case ) or just idiots who enjoy awoxing .
Another advice is , don.t trust anyone,ever...that is eve
-á- I am the commanding officer , u should adress me as sir !
-á- But if i call u sir , what would i call your wife then ?? |

You will live a lot longer in Faction War if you assume that Faction War = Not Purple, shoot instantly.
Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings? |

I think a lot of you missed that OP knew they were dangerous and tried to run/fight but had a mucked up overview due to standing hierarchy.
And was requesting help in rectifying said muck such that next time it will be their blood that trails in space, their voices extinguished, their clones activated, no not his! |

FIX YER DAMN OVERVIEW SETTINGS!!!
Change isn't bad, but it isn't always good. Sometimes, the oldest and most simple of things can be the most elegant and effective. |

The overview can be a bit of a mystery for new players. I wrote a little overview settings guide which might help you (though your immediate question has been answered already).

Don't try to stop people from not reading the OP and responding all smug and superior with 'advice' which is completely unrelated to the OP.
If you succeeded, the forums would lose 80% of the postings. |
