As we know, this rule is and has been visible in the rules page:
1/ You May Not
Infiltrate another group with the intention of killing their members via any method other than a red scenario.
According to Veynom, the reason this is no longer counts is because its change was announced on the SimNews and only left up by mistake.
I would simply like to ask that someone please post a link to that particular SimNews post.
I have searched through the Archives, and found only this post pertaining to Spying Rules Change. It states:
"The following spying rules no more apply, meaning that infiltrating another faction has now become allowed.
* Infiltrate a group and then report or sell the information you gather about it to another group.
* Sell, trade or give away classified information about your own group to person(s) that are not members of your or known allied groups.
* If you leave a group and are still on their mailing list then you may remain there if the owner says you are allowed to, if not you MUST clearly continue to inform the owner of the list until you are taken off. Information sent from the list after you leave the group and after you warned the list owner is yours to use as you wish. "
As you can see, the infiltration rule on killing I put above was not listed as being changed here, only rules pertaining to infiltrating for information.
I can only assume that Veynom is referring to another SimNews post that I missed that states the infiltration with intent to kill rule was no longer valid. If someone can post me a link to that one, I'd appreciate it.
