Armor Upgrade: IMPORTANT

[Xegras Xue]

The new armor really shows the fact that Ordo butts are cuter butts =D

Now i know why you always stand in the back >.>

[Jester Spearmann]

This is somewhat pertinent to the rules posted here, what is the call with regards to new jessie. switch to old armour before going there or stay in uniform ?

Yeah I spend alot of time in New Jessie myself shooting and getting some practice in. What are the rules on attire there? I see many other factions wearing their uniforms there, Are we allowed to show our Ordo pride while blasting heretics in New Jessie?

[Esichs Sonnerstein]

I always thought New Jessie was a "free for all" sim using Linden desighned combat meter, and was unaffiliated with most of the organized groups. Both the new and old rule pretaining to Ordo armor state the weapons and armor are owned, copywrighted, and reprisentative of Ordo. Thus, to prevent the possibility of copybot or primripping, that it is prohibited to wear the armor out side of Ordo unless one has express concent? Am I wrong, in then assuming that, no, unless instructed or given permission to do so, that we can not wear our armor and use our weapons in New Jessie?

[Cyphre Iredell]

As it was, rules in regards to New Jessie allowed for free-for-all combat representing the Ordo Imperialis in proper Ordo attire, but with the advent of shiny new armor, we're going to need a new ruling.

So then, we need new armor rules about wearing it out side the sim because the look of it changed?

[Cyphre Iredell]

That is basically the question, as to whether or not there is to be a change made to the current standing rules.

[Esichs Sonnerstein]

Persoanly, I would assume the answer is "no" The reasonb being is that the armor simply changed shape and look. Not like we had a completly Ordo turn around. We just look sexier now. In all honesty, the answer should be "no" simply base don the fact that we'll blind innocent civilians with the sheer awesome of our armor...thats not very sporting thing to do...now is it?

[Aryte]

You may wear your armor in NJ. Just be mindful.

[Gulliver Carpool]

For those of us who aren't hip to what to look for as to what are copybotters and how we might be exposed, please explain, in detail if necessary, what "be mindful" entails.

I'm dead serious. I have no clue.

Don't ever rez anything on the ground. Ever ever ever. That's the biggest.

[Agares Tretiak]

Yeah. Don't rez the box on the ground, don't edit any pieces on the ground, etc. Sort of the same stuff you're expected to not do with your guns and other equipment.

[Gulliver Carpool]

Can they copybot shit you're wearing?

[Kellervo]

Can they copybot shit you're wearing?

Yes, but it's much more difficult and time-consuming then ripping things off of the ground.

[Sekonda Huet]

Yes, but it's much more difficult and time-consuming then ripping things off of the ground.

Copybotting from avatar involves ripping code into XLM and is extremely difficult and you really do need to know what you're doing. No one should ever, ever wear this armour outside of approved combat zones. EVER! >:o

[Iccarus Infinity]

I understand that we want to maintain our uniqueness and not fall victim to copybotters but us not being able to wear our armor outside of approved combat zones kind of makes me feel like we're hiding something or that we're too afraid to attempt to show the world that we are Ordo and we are proud.

[Cyphre Iredell]

The rule has been in place to maintain the sanctity of the Ordo, its appearance, and its property.

You've never been allowed to use Ordo attire outside of official duty.

[Rei Kuhr]

It's been that way since I've joined. Ordo armor was always disallowed except during Ordo functions. This means being on base, on assaults, or in defense of an allied sim. There have been only a few other exceptions, such as the rare recruiting run or various social functions. The only difference between back then and now is, we have a nice little database that tells us where it's being used, instead of having to keep our ears open for any reports.

[Agares Tretiak]

Furthermore, what's the point of wearing a suit of Ordo armor for non-sanctioned, unofficial purposes? It's a uniform, and a symbol. Wearing it to a singles club or some RP sim is disrespecting the uniform. As long as you're wearing it, you're a representative of the Ordo Imperialis, so any actions you undertake wearing, it reflects directly back on the Ordo.

[Silver Meridoc]

As it said in the handbook, the armor is a symbol of Ordo, it is meant solely for your duties as a solider and personnel of Ordo and should be treated with the highest respects like a Samurai to his sword.

[Inoue Katsu]

I vote that the next armor should be just clothing layers, then we don't have to worry about prims being copybotted.

Or just butt naked.
