Hi all, in the near future, I'm planning on making my first trek into 0.0 space.
One thing I'm not sure about is how POS work.. Are all POS's "friendly?" or are do some have turrets set to blast anyone else out of space when they get too close? (whats the range of those turrets anyways?)
Is there an easy way to tell? and/or a cautious way to approach them?
Like along the lines, I see osme interesting things on sale in escrow on seemingly POS stations in 0.0 space..How can I be sure I can actually approach those stations?

You can't dock at a POS, and you can't escrow something from there...
I think you're referring to stations, not POSs.
Stations have no defenses whatsoever other than the people who own them.

Ah okay.. So basically, all stations in 0.0 are open for all people.. Assuming there's not a group of players flying around in ships to blow you up.

The party who owns the station can allow or deny docking rights to anyone they choose. some alliances have an open to all policy,
most do not.

There are 2 types of fixed stations in .0 space: NPC owned and Player Controlled / Conquerable.
NPC stations are just like the station in empire. Anyone can dock at them and they have services comparable to their twins in Empire space.
Player Controlled stations are the same as NPC stations EXCEPT they can be attacked and taken over. Often these stations are under the control of an alliance and they determine who is allowed inside. Otherwise these stations have many of the same options as the NPC stations (refining, fitting, etc.). Even though they can be attacked the station is permanent and can not be destroyed.
The above should not be confused with Starbases (POSes) or Outposts which are constructed by players, are limited in function and are destroyable (though I'm not sure about Outposts, they can be taken but not sure it can be destroyed after it has been built).
Hope that helped.

Correct me if I'm wrong but outpost pretty much becomes a conquerable station and thus cannot be destroyed. Tho if you attack the platform before it's finished...
