well, maybe i do have time.
first, the sentries most likely didnt respond 'cause you were out of range.
sentry gun range is 55km. they only respond to actions in the same grid. so, if someone attacks at the sun and then warps to a station/gate they will not be attacked. after initiating aggression in front of sentries players have to wait 15 minutes from their last aggression before returning into sentry gun range or they will be attacked.
.1-1.0 + named 0.0 systems: sentry guns will protect anyone with a security status higher than -5 that is attacked within their sight, or defend themselves if attacked or splashed. They attack the first aggressor and then the second, etc. people who are returning fire after being attacked do not count unless they attack someone that didn't attack them.
in addition sentry guns in .5 or higher will attack anyone under -5 regardless of whether they've shot at anyone.
concord will also respond in systems of .5 or higher.
in addition, concord will attack regardless of aggression:
people of -4.5 or lower in .5's
people of -4 or lower in .6's
people of -3.5 or lower in .7's
people of -3 or lower in .8's
people of -2.5 or lower in .9's
people of -2 or lower in 1.0s
You can ALWAYS attack people with lower than -5 SS without concord or guns interfering.

And regarding the wonky 0.0's:
According to a GM, the sentry guns react based on region, not SS. So, if the 0.0 is located in an empire controlled region they will protect you and people can still lose security status.. It's pretty easy to tell the difference between empire 0.0s and non-empire 0.0s: the empire ones are actually named (ie karan & hophib) whereas the non-empire ones are not (ie A2-V27, YZ-LQL). Also, I don't think any of the non-empire ones have guns anyway (except at stations).

According to the last dev chat thing bracketing colors will be fixed shortly in a hotfix.

i wasnt sure if you just chose that 'cause someone had the 1 already or not :]
I'm not really sure how the faction standings work right now (or if they even do), hopefully someone else can fill in there.
