Some one missed the news bulletin.

Working as intended and working well... War is a ***** isnt it?

The more pain neut RR monkies like the OP suffer the better.

Thats fine, thats nothing to do with my issue m8. My issue is why can all those other alliances now shoot me?

neut rsb to be exact. I dont have an issue with it, think to be honest its a good thing, prob should not allow it at all in my opinion, rather than just shut it off. Thats not my issue

if it was a change when this one happened fine.. but at least tell people, cant remember this being in before, of so then hey, but bit annoyed if it was a stealth change,

Not sure if this is right, if it is its silly. Or maybe its recently changed.

But i remote booster a player, the player shoots one war warget. My agression timer goes up (fair enough) but now I am aggressed to ALL the alliances/corps that player is at war with!!

Surely thats not right? how can all those alliances now be allowed to shoot me, if the player I was rsbing only shot 1 of them?

In general, if you use any assistance module on a target, you receive ALL aggression flags that your target has for 15 minutes. Thus if your target is at war, you become subject to all the same wars.

How is that working as intended? How can you be agressed to EVERY other alliance and corp the OTHER player is at war with? when you have not commited or assisted in any kills towards those OTHER alliances?

Because you are assisting a person that all those people are at war with. Exactly how it should be, now stop crying.

Wasn't that how it used to work? Assist someone at war and all his enemies are all of a sudden your enemies?

It has always worked like this. The only recent change was the fact that we turn off assistance modules (and provide a warning) when your target commits an act of aggression or crime while you are already assisting them. This is to prevent the following situation:

1. Player A joins fleet with player B
2. Player B asks player A to assist him
3. Player A starts assisting player B
4. Player B asks his friend, player C (who is not in player B's corp), to drop a can
5. Player B steals from his friend player C and receives a theft flag
6. Player A also receives the theft flag due to him assisting player B, but player A receives NO warning
7. Player C blows up player A and player A has no idea why

This is all well and good for people who are incapable of paying attention (read incursion runners), but this change has introduced several problems that can end up being quite costly. For example:

1. Player A and player B are both in Guardians and have set up a cap chain.
2. Player C engages player D (WT, random aggression, etc).
3. Player B starts repairing player C.
4. Cap transfer from Player A to player B shuts off because player B has gained aggression, potentially causing Player C to explode, due to RR running out of cap (if player A doesn't notice, of course...not entirely unlikely if player A is an alt).

Clearly, there should be an option to turn off this warning and to prevent the modules from turning off for those of us who understand aggression. From my initial testing, it seems that having the warning for stealing from a can turned off does this, but there has been so much inconsistency in how long it takes for this warning to kick in and stop modules (the entire time the target is still receiving RR, mind you) that I have not been able to confirm this. Can a Dev/GM confirm whether this is true?
