A Deeper Explanation

Staying classy means remaining civil even in the face of hostility, calm even in the face of destruction, and humble in victory.

These principles should guide your conduct whenever you are acting as a member of Brave; whether on our alliance services or in space, in public or private, talking to friend or foe.

On Discrimination and Harassment

Brave does not permit discrimination or harassment of any kind by any user of our alliance-level services.

On Social Disputes

Staying Classy can be broadly thought of as showing more grace, patience, and understanding to one another than you would to random strangers on the Internet. This might mean having to do more work, but putting in the work of care makes this a community.

On Banned Content

In the interest of keeping the alliance approachable for all, the following are not welcome on our services:

• Pornography
• Gore
• IRL Politics
• Solicitation of Real Money

In The Event of Friendly Fire

In cases where you are being shot at without your consent, make every possible effort to de-escalate the situation without firing back if possible. Report the person who shot you to either HR if they were a member of Brave, or Diplo if they weren't.

A Detailed Definition of Relisting at a Profit

You may not buy up items from any Imperium market for the purpose of selling on another market. That includes other Imperium markets and Trade Hubs. You also may not buy up low-priced orders to put your existing orders at the top of the list, even if the items you bought were not directly relisted.

This rule refers to action taken in Brave and Imperium markets via the 'Regional Market' window, and is directed specifically towards clearing market orders of available stock for the purpose of raising those items' prices. It also applies to the sale of supercapital ships.

Contracts, firesales, trades, or any other private arrangements between individuals are, generally speaking, not covered by this rule. As such, it is strongly advised that you exercise discretion when dealing privately with anyone.

Supercapital Sales Policy

Supercapitals may not be sold to or built for any non-Imperium player. All supercapital transactions must be conducted via the Super S-Mart Forum.

Access to post on the Super S-Mart Forum may be gained by applying to the [SIG] Supercapital Market Access group on the Imperium Auth site. To apply, you MUST have completed the full set of required skills for either TitanSwarm, or Fight Club, as well as one of the ships contained within. These plans can be found on the Imperium Skill Checker.

If you don't have the skills required to gain posting access, you can still sell ships by contacting one of our Brokers: Yondu Quill, Locke Beulve, or if they can't be reached Jinx De'Caire.

Capital Sales Policy

Capitals may not be sold to neutrals or hostiles in any region that has at least one Imperium or ally controlled system. Capitals may not be sold in the regions of Kador, Kor-Azor, Khanid, Aridia, or Tash-Murkon. Freighters, Jump Freighters, and Rorquals are exempt from this rule.

Pricing Your Items

There are no set minimum or maximum price rules for listing items on the market. With the exception of situations that rise to the level of scamming we do not enforce any sort of limitations on how you price your orders provided you follow the rest of the rules in this section.

Claiming Sites

All anomalies with the exception of mining sites may be claimed by actively running the site. Neither mining sites nor individual rocks may be claimed.

Cosmic Signatures, and Event Sites, along with Officer, Hauler, and Capital spawns may be claimed simply by remaining on grid with the NPC. Do not abuse this claiming method.

R64 T2 Mining Ban

While T2 Mining Lasers, T2 Modulated Strip Miners, and Faction/T2 Mining Drones increase your ore mined per minute, they generate waste. This waste can be up to 64% of all ore mined!

Over the course of an R64 moon pop, this can be multiple billions of ISK worth of ore wasted. This ore could have either been mined by you (albeit with a little more time) or another pilot.

Alliance Leadership may, at times of heightened hostile activity, authorize the use of T2 crystals to expedite the mining of an important moon.

Approving and Denying Capital Interference

If present, a clear FC (regardless of if they're tagged or what alliance they're from) may decide whether or not to approve capital involvement in their engagement. A Capital FC or member of Military Leadership may approve any capital operation.

In rare instances, any member of Alliance Leadership or the Diplo team may call off a capital drop.

On Capital Saves

Capital groups and SIGs sometimes offer organized support for tackled ships. In some cases, standing or a small fleet may be sufficient to fend off attackers. DO NOT mislead people into thinking they need to support or save you.

On Allied Space

If you have any questions or concerns about allied space, contact Diplo.

Invalid Tokens

Tokens can on occasion go invalid. Usually this only happens when a character is transferred or the password for the Eve Account that character belongs to is changed.

You will receive an Eve Mail from Brave Core informing you if a token has gone invalid. If not fixed within a few days, you will automatically lose access to Brave IT Services.

Deleted Characters

We generally do not recommend deleting your characters without good reason.

Brave Core will automatically detect and remove deleted characters within 1 - 2 days, you can speed this along by manually updating the deleted character on the Brave Core website.

Deleted characters may be removed from Imperium Auth by selecting the character on the Imperium Auth site and clicking the UNCLAIM SELECTED button.

Appeals

Brave HR is authorized to decide on disciplinary action taken against all Brave Collective members. If an alliance member disagrees with a decision made by the HR Team, the course of action is to contact their corp leadership. Failure to follow this procedure or to follow the instructions of HR Officers can lead to further disciplinary action.

Possible Penalties

Breaking our rules may result in a variety of penalties, including but not necessarily limited to:

• Fines (In either ISK or Exotic Dancers, Male)
• Temporarily or permanently higher fees to use Brave or Imperium in-space structure services.
• Temporary or permanent removal from some or all Alliance Services
• Removal from the alliance
