Standings advice

Fellas, I have a question about standings (or it might actually be about the overview....)

CC/CDC show blue to me in space, but are not on the friends list in my corp window. ofc, we are all informed that they should be on the friends list so I suppose this could be a corp list bug

I *think* I passed a huzzah pilot yesterday who showed neutral to me, but is on the friends list

I could be (and think I am) mistaken about the second one, I was instaing to a gate at the time and didn't really get a chance to check, but had been told that the pilot was Huzzah. Assuming that one was "pilot error" then I have a mix-up in my corp relationships window. ofc, I understand the relationship with CC/CDC (as far as it is understandable) but am more concerned about other errors that might be there.

I assume this is a cache issue

Is there a way to reset / reload the alliance/corp standings list? Preferrably without deleting my entire cache and so losing my folders etc....

With a few rare exceptions (for POS defence or lack there of) we don't actually have any corp standings set. The reason we see CC, CDC, IAC etc as blue is that we've also got an alliance standings page there the +5s have been set. As for Huzzar, I don't believe they're actually blue, but we're blue to them and since we don't operate an NBSI policy this shouldn't cause any diplomatic issues.

kk, to explain, after my chat with Hehulk this morning I now understand what I was doing wrong. It might be useful to others.

In the corp tab under ->Alliance ->relationships you will see 4 tags;

NAP; means +5 standings

Friends; means +10 standings

Competitors; means -5 standings

Enemies; means -10 standings

All on teh enemies list are huntable and KOS, if I understand the charter correctly. Someone poke me hard if this is wrong and I'll change it.

I had thought that NAP was an agreement distinct from standings, hence my misunderstanding

And for any Fw4ppers that might be reading this and wondering wtf is being discussed, don't worry. We are true neutrals! No wars or political issues to worry about like the 5punkers. Pay heed though, as when it comes time that you wish to join you will want to know about this very closely. There will come times when you need to be watching out for out 5punky friends, and giving them intel on where the baddies are at. Best to ask in game about anybody that you see with a red tag by their name in the overview.

btw FW4PPERS, the 5PUNKORP WarTargets(WTs) are set to -10 to you so you will see them as a red - target in your overview. Plz let the 5PUNKERS know about them in your FW4PPERS channel.

^this!

Fw4ppers are prohibited from engaging anyone in Empire that hasn't already fired upon them! You can defend yourself, but the best defense is distance, i.e. running away!

If you fire on anyone, it opens the possibility of a big mean nasty corp waging war on us and making life difficult, we don't want that at all!

The purpose behind Fw4ppers is to avoid war declarations, so DON'T GO SHOOTING PEOPLE!

This is all correct. No need for me to add anything but if you want clarification on any issues let me know.
