RoE – Rules of Engagement
RoE is a self-imposed code of conduct — devised for players by players — in an effort to improve gameplay for all. The primary aim of RoE is to make player interaction more orderly and less chaotic with respect to warring, mining, raiding, and generally co-existing.
The cornerstone principle of RoE is known as “Fair Play.” Griefing, bullying, trolling, hogging up resources, or otherwise depriving other players from their own reasonable access and opportunity to enjoy the game all constitute violations of “Fair Play” and are therefore adamantly discouraged by RoE. The goal is for exchanges to be as harmonious and civil as possible, even in conflict.
The term “Rules of Engagement” is a bit of a misnomer in that there is no official list of “Rules” that spans all of the game servers. Rather, the leading alliances of each game server has their own adaptations of RoE to serve their distinct interests and goals. That said, there are some core concepts, that are fairly universal game-wide which we will detail herein. These basic universal fundamentals of “RoE” are known as “Base RoE.”
Most of the player lingo you will encounter in STFC (and subsequently in this guide) is related in some form or another to the continual evolution of RoE so get yourself up to speed on the RoE that rules the land on the server where you game. If you’re a member of an alliance, that’s the best place to ask. If you’re solo, ask in-game on Galaxy Chat.
Be warned! There are certain groups and individuals on every server who openly choose to defy RoE. Perhaps you might even be one of them. The important thing to remember is that RoE is an honor agreement between players NOT official game rules.
