The Stay Frosty & A Band Apart Code.
Stay Frosty & A Band Apart are neutral, non-aligned entities. We operate independently. While we officially do not take sides, we will come to the aid of our friends and allies should the need arise.
1. I am a Stay Frosty pirate, daring and cunning, first and foremost.
2. My fellow Stay Frosty and Alliance mates are my space family. I do not steal from or harm them knowingly in any way.
3. I am a lifelong learner. I seek the respect of other space-farers through mastery of the martial skills. Knowing that the fight may be over before it has begun, I seek to engage others only on my terms.
4. I earn my own ISK and buy my own ships and supplies. I may share from my abundance with other Stay Frosty and Alliance pilots, and I may accept their largesse in turn. I split loot equitably with my fellow pilots, being especially gracious with those who have suffered material loss.
5. I appreciate the opportunity of flying with my Stay Frosty and Alliance comrades, thereby multiplying target opportunities. However, I can find and/or create my own content, solo or with alliance pilots, as I choose.
6. I respect all my opponents, win, lose, or draw. I always volunteer a “good fight” I am free with my praise and advice with a receptive foe. I invite those with promise to consider becoming a proud member of Stay Frosty and A Band Apart.
7. Stay Frosty and A Band Apart have a zero tolerance policy towards harassment, hate speech, intolerance, racism, and/or abuse of any kind inside or outside of the game. We strive to show respect to all those that play our game at all times, both inside and outside the virtual universe.
7a: Normal, good-natured posturing inside of Eve is part of the game. But Stay Frosty and A Band Apart pilots are held to a higher standard. While we may engage in good-natured local talk, we do not talk smack or engage in hate speech of any kind. Our actions speak for themselves.
7b: Our pilots represent this Code outside the game as well. Doxxing, harassment, abuse, hate speech, racism, or exploitation of real world knowledge against another person of any kind is not permitted under any circumstances.
7c: Victims are encouraged and welcomed to present their cases directly to any Alliance CEO or Director. Our immediate reaction is to believe the accuser. Evidence of any infraction is presented to Alliance Leadership and both sides are given an opportunity to explain the evidence, actions, and/or circumstances involved. Leadership then votes on any action deemed necessary with the Alliance Executor considered the final word on the matter.

7d: There are three potential outcomes:
• For in-game material losses compensation shall be given above and beyond that which was lost. Should the pilot(s) involved be unable or unwilling to do so, their Corporation shall be expected to do so.
• The offending pilot(s) will be kicked from their Corporation and the Alliance without prejudice. Kicked members are unable to return.
• The offending pilot(s) are kicked from their Corporation and the Alliance with prejudice, which means red standings with Stay Frosty and A Band Apart and “shoot on sight” orders.
• The offending pilot(s) will be kicked from their Corporation and the Alliance without prejudice. Kicked members are unable to return.

7e: Stay Frosty and A Band Apart are a benevolent dictatorship and the decision of the Executor is final.
7f: The above process encompasses all points in the Code.
8. I wish to engage others only on my terms, and other pilots may be dishonorable. But as for me, should I ever accept a 1v1 or a duel, I shall honor it.
9. As a Stay Frosty and A Band Apart pilot it is in my best interest and those of my fellow pilots to create and cultivate an environment that encourages good fights.
10. Although it may be convenient for me to let my target falsely assume he’s safe from me, he may hold me to anything I actually do say; I keep my word.
TL;DR Version:
• I honor 1v1s
• I keep my word
• I don’t shoot Blues
• I’m not a Dick
