All depends if you get caught or not... whilst I appreiate that you are asking for more clarity from MH on this matter.

IF dedicated support planet(s) get closed it is little or no consequence to the player who is/controls the support planet as they arent playing properly and punishment of closure would not have the same effect as someone who is trying to play for rank. one of the reasons that it creates an unfair advantage.

I have no problems with people getting help from their gal or intag ally mate. however it does becomes more likely with out of tag def that it could be the same person using a proxi hence multi-ing.
By hard coding out of tag def would reduce multing and free up time for MH to look into other aspects of cheating like farming in particular this round support planets throwing mosquito / illusions at ziks/etd for them to get a fi/co roiding fleet.

It is always fair at the first tick no arguments from me there. then again out of tag def has no relevence when everyone is in protection....you've just put forward a stupid argument from that.

You're working on the basis/assumption that the support rule has been a constant.

I have went into more detail why this isnt fair. I would prefer hard coding... no room for MH discreptancies in decision making with support rule.
Arent you saying that some of the MH calls on the support rule have been unfair?

I am not going to get several computers with separate IPs and or proxies or get people who cba arsed to play a round to build one class of ship only to be my def whore .... "just to keep up with the jones"
