Ok I Can understand if the person is already flagged you getting flagged too. But going global and losing sec status if the person is an outlaw is just stupid point blank period.
You can't help people in your gang even if they arent global without going global yourself just because they're an outlaw. Throw some ideas @ me about what you think about this, and people who just are biased against piracy and flashy red people your opinion doesn't count.

I personally think you should have been Concorded for helping an outlaw whilst having a positive security status...  - - -

2 problems with what you said. I'm an outlaw for 1, and 2 concord is not present in low sec where outlaws are found.

Well you want a serious response then? In all honesty it makes sense, from a pvp standpoint of view. Since from a pvp standpoint of view you are helping an outlaw killing someone in lowsec which is against Concord law but not enforced by Concord allthough registered in their central database and administered through security rating.
I'm curious however if you would also loose sec status if you were helping said outlaw whilst he was killing NPC's, an activity that is Concord sponsored.
So jeah from a PVP standpoint of view I would say fair game behaviour.
Edit: to clarify if you see remote repping in the same way as you would if you were helping him shoot the same target it makes sense to me. - - -

That's what i was saying I could understand if he was global already. But as is you get a global and sec hit even if hes not global and hes just sitting there.

The current flagging rules do not make sense, nor do they work as you describe.
A group of poor mis-understood individuals are flying through low-security space. They get engaged by a group of vigilantes. Since the poor mis-understood individuals have -10 security status the vigilantes do not get sentry aggro. The poor mis-understood individuals fire back on the vigilantes and get global criminal flags and sentry aggro because the vigilantes are only flagged to the one individual they shot, not to the corp. Anyone coming to the aide of the victim of the vigilantes is a criminal, even though they are just protecting their corp mates from the unwarranted aggression of dangerous vigilantes.
Also, if two groups of -10 pirates engage each-other with battleships there will be no GCF nor will the sentrys get involved. However if they do so with remote reppy battleships everyone doing the repping will gain a GCF.
So no. Current flagging rules don't make sense from the gameplay perspective at all.

Originally by: Soljisk But as is you get a global and sec hit even if hes not global and hes just sitting there.
Ok, let me dumify it for myself just to see if I understand you correctly.
1). Outlaw Awfull attacks Carebear Ahhnotagain and kills him going global. 2). Outlow Bloodlust logs on and x-s up in corp. 3). Outlaw Awfull invites Outlaw Bloodlust to gang. 4). Outlaw Bloodlust undocks in his logi and warps to Outlaw Awfull. 5). Outlaw Bloodlust sees that Outlaw Awfull is damaged and repairs him. 6). As a result Outlaw Bloodlust takes a sec hit and goes global as well.
Correct?
I assume Outlaw Awfull still had his pvp timer going since he was still global right? If so it would still make sense to take the sec hit and go global as well since you essentially helped kill Carebear Ahhnotagain through repairing the damage Carebear Ahhnotagain did (or the sentries did) to Outlaw Awfull whilst partaking in a Concord sactioned act. I.e. if Outlaw Awfull robbed the bank and Outlaw Bloodlust would pick up Outlaw Awfull in a get away car they both would be chased by the police and both would be prosecuted even though Outlaw Bloodlust didnt partake in the bank robbery himself. - - -

I'd rate that as a bug.

Yeh but if the outlaw is just sitting there minding his own business and hes in your corp and he gets attacked you will go global and lose sec status even though he himself is not global.

Nothing in that chain events is described by the OP at all.

Err...
Sooo... Scenario 1 1). Outlaw Awfull and Outlaw Bloodlust sit at their local lowsec gate telling rude jokes involving Concord, hookers, donuts and a neat trick, both are in same corp and ganged. 2). Carebear Backforrevenge jumps in screaming something about an angry agent and loosing dolls whilst aggressing Outlaw Awfull. 3). Outlaw Awfull falls of his chair from laughter and says let me tank him, im not returning fire. 4). Outlaw Bloodlust hangs back still pondering the clue on the last concord joke but takes a sec hit and goes global even though neither is engaging.
or
Scenario 2 1). same 2). same 3). same 4). Outlaw Bloodlust remote reps Outlaw Awfull and takes a sec hit and goes global even though neither is engaging.
Scenario 3 1) same 2) same 3) Outlaw Awfull falls of his chair from laughter and says let me solo him. 4) Outlaw Bloodlust hangs back still pondering the clue on the last concord joke but takes a sec hit and goes global even though he doesnot even have a module activated or drones out.
I'm sry but I seem to be failing to grasp the exact scenario of the engagement. - - -

Edited by: Leon Blue on 14/02/2008 01:07:37 As I understand the op it's like this:
1) Outlaw Awful and Outlaw Bloodlust sitting somewhere in lowsec, telling jokes, reading FHM and whatnot, neither is criminally flagged. 2) Outlaw Awful has a bit armor damage and thus asks Outlaw Bloodlust if he has a remote repper fitted. 3) Outlaw Bloodlust has indeed a remote repper on his puny frigate and reps Outlaw Awful, who still isn't criminally flagged to anybody. 4) Outlaw Bloodlust gets a sec hit and becomes criminally flagged for no apparent reason and gets wtfpwned by sentry fire.
Correct?
Edit: Scenario 2 in the above post works also but to keep it simple I left the Carebear out.

Correct, the real awesome thing is if you rep your OWN DRONES as an outlaw you get a gcd + sec loss.

Your aiding a person that concord labled as a known criminal, why shouldnt concord see you as an enemy then is beyond me.
If you fighting in a 1v1 vs someone and I reped him, wouldt you assume i was against you an on his side, mmmmyes, so does concord, and they deal with you accordingly, by lowering sec, and making you a criminal....
also keep in mind sec is just standings with concord and nothing more, which makes the statements above make sence in why they drop sec, and flag you.

u even get gcf even if u remote rep any drones or fighters that may be damaged let alone try and rep a corp mate if u r -5. Taking into account that you nor your corpmate are criminally flagged and just doing some repair work. I see this as a major flaw in the flaggng rules

The guy you rep doesn't have to be GCC'd. If you do any helpful action to an outlaw you get a global countdown, the same as if you just shot someone. Its a stupid broken mechanic.

No. It was changed to the current situation because previously a BS with enough logistic support could tank concord in high sec.
You can thank the Zombies for the current rules, they had some fun in Yulai, and since then..this is how it works.
If you were not flagged, you can imagine the fun still to be had in high sec with a few logistics ships repping you

Repping a Flagged person would still get you global. Im talking about repping a non flagged outlaw. An outlaw wouldnt be in high sec anyways.

Its the same reason. Rules were changed way back, and it "does" make sense if you think about it.
If you are assisting a globaled guy or outlaw, then you become a target too. I have pirated on my main for a long time, and once managed to global the entire gang in war when we were spider repping. It was low sec, and we still came out on top..but they didn't thank me for bringing the sentries in on them 
Rules were changed after this event

Edited by: Qui Shon on 14/02/2008 13:26:28 Well, if you really wanted it to be logical, since sentry guns respond to criminal actions, sentry guns should always immediately open fire on outlaws who come into range, since outlaws, within the sec rating system, are certifiably criminals. They have passed the innocent until proven guilty point, they're just plain guilty, according to concord.
From a gameplay perspective that might not be good, of course. And from a gameplay perspective it might be better if you could rep unflagged ships/drones without getting flagged.
But don't say it doesn't make sense, because it makes perfect sense, just doesn't go as far as it could.

yeah, it's a stupid system for outlaws.
Outlaw is sitting on a gate, doing nothing, sentries don't fire at him. Second player starts remote repping outlaw and gets sentry aggro.
I do agree that when the outlaw just got global crim counter that the remote repper should get it too but if the sentries aren't shooting the outlaw, they shouldn't shoot the remote repper either.
