== Breaking the WarSOP? == | |||
In the Requests for Clarification section, it talks about "[[Archive:Student Guidance Department#I screwed up with the WSOP. What can I expect?|I screwed up with the WSOP. What can I expect?]]". | |||
Now that the WarSOP consists of "you can fly anything, but here are some tips" - what exactly is left that you can breach?! | |||
== Proposal to Add Caveat Emptor to WSOP == | |||
WSOP should begin with a prominent paragraph along the lines of: | |||
High security wars are serious and could easily lead to the loss of your ship and pod. It is YOUR responsibility to learn to protect yourself from being unwilling victims of the war targets. The University will not protect you, but it will teach you to protect yourself. These survival skills will be invaluable in EVE Online. | |||
Explaination | |||
As an older noob player (Sophomore literally means wise fool), I see a disconnect between the new players entering the UNI after the most recent WSOP changes and the older corporation members from before. The older page used to innately convey that high security war are serious business with big red and green rules for what you can and cannot do. The new one gives no such indication that high sec war might be serious, or that you might die. Instead, only a few sections down it eventually casually links to our tips on how to survive during wartime. That page is a wall of text that even the most studious applicants are not going to read during the already thorough application process. | |||
I fully support the new WSOP itself, but the current page needs to better address the needs of our newest players, who are just then applying to the UNI. By setting their expectations there, on a page they are supposed to read and summarize during the application process, I hope we can cut down on the proliferation of these threads. | |||

* Explicitly add Orca to one of the ship categories? Yes, it's common sense, but I'm sure a rules lawyer would ''never'' try and argue that it wasn't technically in one of the categories... Heck, might as well add "Industrial Command Ship" to the Capital category, just in case someone has a Rorqual?

* The WSOP contains a section on Promoted Activities. First item on the list is Fleet Operations. Yet, there is no link to the [[Fleet Operations During War Time]] policy page. I believe a link should be included. A precedent for this exists: The [[Wartime and Official ILN Operations Loot Policy]], a similar extended policy information page, is linked from the WSOP page. --[[User:Miranda glade|Miranda Glade]] 00:14, 9 October 2010 (UTC) | * The WSOP contains a section on Promoted Activities.

- From a Command.ILN conversation on 30 November 2010, Kyrlin clarified that pilots may not be in space in a covops without a fleet, as doing so looks like you (the covops pilot) are running exploration sites and will get you removed from the uni for a breach of W(artime)SOP. Suggest edit to the language of the Wartime SOP to reflect this. - Dimitri Grishenko 30/11/10 | - From a Command.ILN conversation on 30 November 2010, Kyrlin clarified that pilots may not be in space in a covops without a fleet, as doing so looks like you (the covops pilot) are running exploration sites and will get you removed from the uni for a breach of W(artime)SOP.

My proposed change to the ''Loot from war targets'' section of the [[Wartime Standard Operating Procedures]] page is below. The name of this section would change to ''Wartime Looting and Salvaging''. Along with this change I propose to delete the [[Wartime and Official ILN Operations Loot Policy]] page. This change will consolidate the Wartime loot policy to one place, and make it easier for new pilots to find and understand. This modification does not change anything inherent to the policy in this edit, it simply cleans it up a little. | My proposed change to the ''Loot from war targets'' section of the [[Archive:Wartime Standard Operating Procedures|Wartime Standard Operating Procedures]] page is below.

* Optional: Fleet Commanders may use killboard values to split up loot so that people who lost a ship get at least some loot to help cover their loss (up to the price of the ship). Loot distribution is also authorized to cover the cost of fuel used during the fleet. This process may be conducted by the Fleet Commander or their designated representative, but the Fleet Commander is responsible for ensuring fairness. Fleet Commanders may show preference to ship types, but not to individual pilots. | * Optional: Fleet Commanders may use killboard values to split up loot so that people who lost a ship get at least some loot to help cover their loss (up to the price of the ship).

* Required: Any remaining loot (or all loot if you skipped loss/fuel reimbursement) is to be placed in the War Loot container in the Alpha Hangar at HQ. If you feel it is not safe to return the loot to Aldrat, create an item exchange contract to "reimbursement manager" from where you are. | * Required: Any remaining loot (or all loot if you skipped loss/fuel reimbursement) is to be placed in the War Loot container in the Alpha Hangar at HQ.
