== Summary ==

Under current mechanics a player will receive a GCC and security penalty if he/she provides remote assistance to a player with a [[Security_Status|security status]] of -5.0 or lower. This inhibits the abilities of gangs consisting soley of Outlaws or those composing of Outlaws/Non-Outlaws when engaging legitmate war targets or other Outlaws in [[Low_Security_Space|Low Security Space]].

== Solution ==

Change the current mechanics so that a player will only recieve a GCC for repping someone else with a GCC.
In the case of a non-outlaw assisting an Outlaw the parties aggressing the Outlaw will be able to return fire upon the player assisting the Outlaw. 

However, a player providing remote assistance (reps, sensor boosting, remote eccm, remote tracking links, etc) to a player with GCC will still incur a GCC and [[Security_Status|security status]] hit upon himself.

=== Pros ===
*Gangs consisting of Outlaws or a mixture of Outlaws and Non-Outlaws (as is the case in some [[FW|FW]] fleets) will be able to engage legitimate targets and fully take advantage of remote assistance without worrying about security hits or GCC.

=== Cons ===
*None apparant at this time, most [[Pirate|pirate]] camps relying upon remote sensor boosted HICs/[[Recons|Recons]] will all incurr a GCC upon their first kill, so very little will change with regards to the 'gate camping' dynamic.
