Oh, this will be the last thing I say about this, my next move will be to setup a partition againist the SWG developers forlieing andfalse advertising. In the JTL Manual, it says right here, black and white. Privateer - A privateer is effectively a mercenary pilot. Loyal to neither the Rebel Alliance nor the Galatic Empire, most Privateers are willing to fly missions for any group with enough credits. Privateers might find themselves working for the Smuggler's Alliance on Tatoonie, the Corellian Security Force (CorSec), or even the Royal Security Forces (RSF) of Naboo. Privateers utilize a variety of craft, including those orignally designed for criminal groups such as the Hutts and Black Sun. Through rigorous training and various underworld contracts, Privateers learn exotic piloting techniques and master black-market droid programs. The life of a Privateer involves a grat deal of conflict. Privateers who work for reutable groups may find themselves policing systems and battleing pirates. When running missions for the Hutts or the Smugglers Alliance, a Privateer is likely to run afoul of loacl authorities or even the Empire.
Black and White, in the manuel, fix the freelance pilot back to how it suppose to be. I will give anough time for the developers and even George Lucas himself to look this over. If things are not changed, I will setup a website to allow SWG users to sign a partition and a lawyer will be hired. Great thing about living in the USA.

Look, I understand your point and that still doesn't fix the fact that its fasle advertising. I choose privateer for the fact I can work for anyone and shot anyone. I just did missions for SA, nothing happened or changed. I am a Master Pilot. I don't work for RSF anymore. I work for myself. I get missions from any train I please now. And still I cannot fire on IMPs, I will leave this post alone for 2 weeks, so everyone can view, but after New Years, I am hiring a lawyer and I will fight this thing through. There is no reading between the lines, in the manual it says MERCENARY. If its a bug well here is my post about the Bug. Master pilot can no longer attack imperial ships.

For simplicity's sake:
RSF is an Imperial ally, therego you can't attack imperials.
Corsec is a Rebel ally, therego you can't attack rebels.
Smugger's Alliance is true neutral, kill who you want.

Is not quite right, CorSec is not limited either.
Oh, and Original Poster: if your life is so meaningless and empty that you would actually sue SOE over this....well I just cant find the words, prepare to have your arse handed to you in tiny little chunks by SOEs team. Even if you did win, you would have to pay out about 200 times the conpensation in legal-fees, heh.

You dont NEED a dev to give you an answer, its common knowledge that RSF are Imperial-aligned mate. If you need proof, look for the patchnotes for the publish before last, they fixed a bug where RSF pilots were able to attack Imperial NPCs.

When you picked the RSF tree you should have read the description of the squad, it's made crystal clear there that you will end up imperial aligned, pilots who did go through their training in the RSF squad couldn't attack Imps since launch of JTL (and in beta) until it got bugged for a small period of time and this bug was fixed again a few days ago (And I am happy that it got fixed as the imperial alignment of RSF was the reason why my alt went through RSF training and not one of the other two options).
It's not SOE's fault if you ignore the information that is given to you.

Right now, there's a bug that allows CorSec to attack Rebels, although they're not supposed to be able to.
Smuggler's Alliance can attack both. The only faction that SA cannot attack is Hutts.
RSF is Imperial, so they cannot attack Imperials.
When you talk to the Recruiter, Gil Burton, he explains this all to you. Read it instead of just clicking through it.

RSF are imperial aligned
Corsec are supposed to be rebel aligned i think (it makes sence in the game as they are on corellia)
SA are hutt aligned, meaning they can attack everyone BUT other hutt ships.

Look, I appreciate everyone's feedback and justification on this, but read each others post. No one can agree. And as I look at your names, I see No Dev on there. All I see are players. Until a Dev comes in here, reads my post, and can give me a honest answer, then everything will be resolved.

Ok that it just weird, but wrong that RSF is stuck like that. If there is someone who can get a screenshot of the RSF recruitor saying that you cannot attack IMPs, please post it for me to see. I hate to moan and groan and do stuff like this, but I was going by what was published. I could of overlooked what my recruitor said. I wont deny that. But it still is wrong of them to change everything. If they are going to make a profession and state, in publish, about a profession and then add in all thses bumps and turns. Then it should be that way. I am not hear to make enemys or piss people off. I saw something wrong and wanted to voice it. I thank you all for your help. even if it was a need for more females in my life.
ROYAL SECURITY FORCE!!!! What is so hard to understand here.
RSF PROTECTS THE PLANET OF NABOO, which just happens to be the EMPERORS home planet. Why in the world would you attack an IMPERIAL SHIP when YOU WORK FOR people that run his world?
The old saying goes
Don't s*** where you eat!!

It has to do with your ground faction.
This is inplace so a Rebel on the ground a can't join a neutral faction and kill rebels in space.
