Sentencing FAQ

What is the purpose of this page?

This is to give a clear, defined standard for M07 for those of you who need it.

The intent of this is to elevate sentencing for subsequent trips to the brig, to prevent cases where people bounce off the brig over and over without being able to receive a definitive punishment. If your usage of this modifier conflicts with the intent listed above, you're probably misusing it.

M07 FAQ

Can I chain severity and repeat trips to the brig together to raise the sentence by two levels?

Yes, this is intended.

Can crimes from the same incident be stacked?

No, you must have been brought to the brig before to receive an elevated sentence.

Can crimes committed during the same incident be stacked?

No, they cannot. Only the highest crime is used.

What do Corporate and Security Crimes count as?

Corporate and Security crimes always elevate to demotion, and they are not higher than Capital.

What do Infractions count as?

Infractions are handled by the Fine Evasion crime. They cannot be elevated.

So, if someone commits a minor crime, and I have to brig them, then commits a major crime like punching the Captain, that is a Capital offense?

Yes, that is not an exception to the rule.
