Repeated, deliberate breaking of this rule will result in possible kicking of pilot and/or corp from the renter program or fines. Check Discord pinned messages for details. Scanning for wormholes is OK as long as the owner of the system agrees. Check in local if occupied and politely leave if asked. * 11.2. Coalition intel channel is `wc.north`. You are responsible for reporting hostiles and neutrals in the channel. * 11.3. Wielders police will try their best to help with neutrals presence, but we can not realistically help you with a cloaky camper. Pilots who are members of Caladrius Alliance provide military defense in the area and should not be bothered in local as they fly through space to scout for military operations. * 11.4. Renters may anchor bubbles within their systems. Please be respectful to others including your moon/system rental neighbors. If on a travel route, have a player in the system to take the bubbles down for friendlies. Military operations will always have the right to shoot down bubbles. If you have bubbles up, you must have 2 characters in the Wielders Investment Group discord. If requested in the Bubble Removal Request channel to remove the bubble, you must remove it as soon as possible and report that in the channel. * 11.5. All disputes are to be settled by the rental admins. Shooting blues is not acceptable. * 11.6.

If there is a problem please contact your rental admin. * 11.7 A note on Pandemic Horde and Northern Coalition. Wielders/Wielders has a NIP with PH and NC. not to shoot each other's structures. It is also against the NIP to put structures into each other's sov. So this should not come up in your renter space. If you are playing with an Wielders Investment Group or other renter character outside of renter space, you should not shoot PH or NC. structures because that violates the agreement we have with them. 12.

Only established alliances with a good history are allowed to rent as an alliance. * 3. You will have standings between your alliance and WinCo members.

Standings Point of Contact is required * 5. WinCo SEAT registration is required for CEOs * 6. Because we don't set standings between renting alliances and winco allies, you might have mis-aiigned docking rights to standings. So please set your docking rights for your structures to include only those Wielders alliances you have blue standings with. In other words, do not use the standard FRT ACLs. Set docking only for those you have standings with (see rental manager for list) * 7. An important note about standings and AWOX. Please remember that Wielders Investment Group (FRT’s rental alliance) is blue to Wielders allies -- but that renting alliances are blue only to Wielders members. This means that if a renting alliance is fighting alongside Wielders renters, you could be in a situation where you are fighting a group that is blue to some of you and neutral to others. Please be on the watch for this, particularly if you are roaming or fighting outside of your renter space.
