Out of curiosity, I ran the info page through an AI text detector. Results aren't encouraging.

I also found similarly damning results for a lot of your comms.
If you did, in fact, use a chatbot to write your roleplay, I think that casts a bit of a shadow on your request. In this community, official factions are often expected to uphold a standard of excellence and dedication that others may follow. If one does not care enough to even write their own work, it smacks of laziness and irresponsibility.

1 - This is toxic and mean.
2 – You could have been a nicer human, instead of just slamming them with insults you could offer to help them with their own work.
3 – Real world organisations are using AI to write contract proposals, marketing materials and even employee handbooks. Don't be snobby if its good enough for them then it's good enough here.
4 – People might use AI to write the words, but the content and context are their own, if you don't like their roleplay, don’t read it.

A zoner faction with a 4.0 mining bonus might be asking a bit much as you would be making a mining faction with few real hostiles, this is minor as people will find a way to pirate you for the ore anyway and might make for some interesting roleplay situations.
I personally recommend doing some work to justify that mining bonus instead of just asking for it. Here's an example of some work the APM guys did that you might be able to get some pointers from.

The only Ai assistance that we use is the one that generates character pictures, which we then run through Photoshop and make our TBars. There's really no need for you to explain to us what's expected of Official Factions in this community as we're more than aware. Either way, we appreciate your feedback.

If I recall correctly, Phoenix has a bonus on Iridium, might be wrong though. Orex Industries' main activity is in fact Iridium extraction and our RP revolves around it. If we were let's say just a research Zoner group, I agree, asking for an increased mining bonus wouldn't make much sense.
Your point about Zoners not having, quote on quote, real hostiles is old news, Zoners are not immune to piracy just because you're not hostile to them, it's just that piracy is not worth the hassle these days. I, for one, am all for having dope piracy interactions, it's just that nobody's doing it.
But hey, three Months is a long time, there is a lot of RP to be done...
We appreciate your feedback.

Out of interest, who's running the group? Makes sense to add the 1iC / 2iC as a public point of contact on your info post, for both transparency and accountability purposes.
As an aside, AI text detection tools are currently largely snakeoil, and have an absolutely horrendous false negative and false positive rate. Don't rely on them, you're better off flipping a coin or maybe consulting an oracle.

We would put it public, but the main reason we didn't is because people in this community are pretty judgemental. As the number of players decreases, it gets worse, which results in players pre-deciding whether they like you or your faction or not, whether they RP with you properly or not. We might not agree or like some people in this community, but that will not affect how we RP with them. I hope you understand what I'm trying to say.
Lastly, to stay secretive in this community is really difficult, mostly because people have big mouths and are using their positions to see whos who (not pointing any fingers, just saying).
If you have any issues with the Faction or our members, you can either post here or private message this account.

Fair enough. It just seems strange to conceal it during the application when you're required to post it on the faction leader's list anyway when/if status is granted.

It's not that strange, Alt accounts exist for a reason.
