-When there is a currently live war, or the IVY Defence Status listed on the message of the day in [[Chat Channels and Mailing Lists|Chat.E-UNI]] is [[IVY Defense Status|DEFCON 1]], the below rules are automatically in place.
+When there is a currently live war, or the IVY Defense Status listed on the message of the day in [[Chat Channels and Mailing Lists|Chat.E-UNI]] is [[IVY Defense Status|DEFCON 1]], the below rules are automatically in place. This means that it can apply during peacetime, when it is felt by the Admiralty there is a need to put the restrictions in place.
-Note the emphasis on alts to alleviate the restrictions placed on Unistas during war. Alts are easy to create, very useful, and can keep you from going stir crazy during war.
+Read these rules exactly as written, since that is what they mean. There are no hidden meanings. Also, any attempt to hide behind the letter of the rules to avoid the spirit will not be acceptable. THIS IS THE WORD. This can only be trumped by direct orders via alliance mail or by written word of a director. If there are new rules, they will be posted HERE. If someone claims something is a rule and cannot point to it here, then it is not.
+If you break a rule, admit it and accept the consequences and you will find leniency.  Argue, resort to name calling, etc., and you will find yourself tossed out on your ear. Most wartime violations result in being put out of the University until the end of the war and you can rejoin then. Serious things might call for more serious measures but many times, what will happen to you depends on you, we actually don’t like having to punish people, so the less reason you give us, the better.
 # [[File:ColorTag-StarRed9.gif‎]] '''Communication:''' Anytime that you are in space and online, you must be on the Alliance voice server (currently [[Mumble]]) and able to hear. You do not have to be able to speak, just listen.

 ## [[File:ColorTag-StarBlue9.gif‎]] ''Why:'' The reason these activities are not allowed is they are not safe. PVE ships are fit in ways that make them fragile to PVP ships and you can be scanned down in any mission, site or complex. All such activities do is hand free kills to our enemies. Ratting isn’t safe either, since you will be distracted and typically alone. So all such activities are banned.
 ## [[File:ColorTag-StarGreen9.gif‎]] ''Alts:'' Your Uni toon can sit in a station with an agent, get a mission and give a [[Bookmark]] to an alt, then you can run the mission with your alt and have your Uni toon turn it in. The Uni toon NEVER undocks during this.
-# [[File:ColorTag-StarRed9.gif‎]] '''Hauling & Mining:''' You may not haul goods or mine in EVE during wartime.
+# [[File:ColorTag-StarRed9.gif‎]] '''Hauling & Mining:''' Hauling of goods or mining in known space, exploration sites, or wormholes is forbidden.  Repeat:  You may not haul goods or mine in EVE during wartime.
 ## [[File:ColorTag-StarBlue9.gif‎]] ''Why:'' Haulers make fat, slow targets, even cloaking ones. You can see from the [http://killboard.eveuniversity.org Killboard] that even [[Frigate#Covert_Ops|Covert Ops]] have trouble getting away many times, so there’s no reason to put out big fat targets full of candy and beer for our enemies.
 ## [[File:ColorTag-StarGreen9.gif‎]] ''Alts:'' Use an alt or courier contracts to move things around. If you need just a few modules, create an alt and contract them to him to move or use a contract and couriers. Many Unistas will happily haul things for free with their alts for their fellows.

 # [[File:ColorTag-StarRed9.gif‎]] Inappropriate use of channels - Talking, questions, etc, in Alliance or Command.ILN or other channels. If someone asks a wrong question or speaks up in a channel they shouldn’t. DO NOT YELL, BERATE, or do anything other than politely explain this isn’t the proper channel or they shouldn’t ask that question there and direct them to the proper place. Do not spam the channel with symbols or other things either, those are reserved for fleet formation and announcements. Also, LEARN the names of the directors most likely to speak up in such channels so that you’re not politely trying to tell a director he can’t say things in Alliance. We do so when we think it’s necessary.
 # [[File:ColorTag-StarRed9.gif‎]] Communication in Local or with Wartargets - We do not talk in local to war targets or anyone else really during wartime. FC’s may allow a fleet to put GF (Good Fight) but nothing more. If a wartarget mails you, convo’s you, ignore it and do not accept. We do not speak to the war targets, except via our guns, lasers, drones and missiles. Leave talking with war targets to the diplomats.
-# [[File:ColorTag-StarRed9.gif‎]] Fleet Formation - Fleets should have 3 or more people. Covert scouts are encouraged but NOT required. You may use picket frigates instead of scouts. Fleets MUST use the Uni Mumble server for voice communications and FC’s MUST have a microphone. FC’s must also be sober.
 # [[File:ColorTag-StarRed9.gif‎]] '''Trade Hubs''' - Trade hubs are not strictly off limits. You are strongly encouraged to not sit in them during wartimes though and if we see rising losses again in Hubs to people who are NOT part of combat fleets, then we may ban Uni's from being there. Please do not abuse this and cause others grief by making it be reinstated. Shopping trips are not permitted.
 ## [[Image:ColorTag-SkullOrange9.gif]] ''Silentbrick:'' The presence of Uni members attracts war targets, even if they are docked. Plus, far too many people have undocked during WT even after being told not too and they get killed. So do not stay there during the war. Train the right skills and you don't need to be there to do trading. Members needing things from hubs should purchase the items remotely and use courier contracts or have an alt move the items to Aldrat.
