OFFLINE

Rule 1 - do not attack an alliance member - look at alias doc, if they are on there, don't attack them - if you see someone not on list, ask if they are in alliance - if they don't ask they are not in the alliance.

Rule1.a - if you attack an alliance member, you will be attacked relentlessly by the rest of the alliance.  Not just retaliation, but nonstop.

Rule1.b - it is your responsibility to add your name to the members doc.  Until you have your name in that doc you are still liable to be hit/farmed.

Rule 2 - find your own mines, if you want to use a mine owned by an alliance member, ask them 1st. Ownership is defined as having a black flag on the mine.  A released mine is owned by the dracs.  If you regularly mine an area and find another alliance member in you're regular area, work it out with them to use the mine.  As we grow, lvl 9 mines will become limited and the higher level players need these mines to keep growing.
If a Mine is flagged Drac it is considered open for anyone.

Rule 2.a - do not sit on mines longer than you need them.  Do not park on a mine, and leave if you know you'll be gone well longer than it takes for you to fill up on that resource - this is actually taking away from resources needed by other members of the alliance.

Rule 3 - Build a better base defense (island/atol) look at Richard or Joseph's bases for an idea of what these look like.
