Lets check out Dublin here, the most wondrous place for RP change ever.
Mollys.
=MMC= Molly Mining Corp has been an official faction thru the Molly Council
& Has been around on Discovery for over 9 Month and has subscribed to a few contracts.
New "Pew Pew We H8 All Faction's Roames in" Aka [M] ...
Says suddenly without asking anybody IMG cannot participate in Arranmore field cus we won't let you.
(Before you ask this is part of the topic of sterotyping because here, MMC has the higher grade due to the current contracts + more RP time in-game and well known throughout Discovery, at least to the Bretonian people.)
Here, MMC has been around for months rping and selling gold ores and shooting BAF at will, now the new random faction (indie) roams in with a few people and takes over everything..
Whos in the wrong?
My Point stands firm and a question is asked?, Sterotype or legitimate ruling over current standings.
My 2Cents *No Pun Intentions to Insult, cause this is what is currently happening*

We haz guns we use them if you have some objection or dissagreement about our policy then I will listen to them and answer them there. It is stupid to flame/troll here since the topic purpose is much different. Flame/troll in the link that I gave you please.

Actually no, its correct and is what is happening right now in-game, Ask Marcus aka Atlas the Current =MMC= Leader..
The =MMC= was in MC but has recently changed back to =MMC= thus the activity logger not tracking us.. (of course & Yes we are active ask IMG.
Back to topic
Is it stereotype for an official to be over and Individual faction no, Is it happening No.. Should it happen, My answer would be yes to stop new people walking in and *demanding control* regardless of how the Ex Official faction feels or its regards to the RP..
(This can happen to ANY CURRENT OFFICIAL FACTION) I was using the Current Standings between =MMC= and [M] to prove my point.
Independent factions can be destructive to current Official Factions again what I'm saying is directly On Topic if an admin or mod has a disagreement please PM me A.S.A.P I'll try change my answers to suit, but this can be and is the consequences of Officials Not having the power.
' Wrote:You took example of two unofficial factions. How is that on topic? You obviously dislike [M[ in some way and found a way to bash us. So stop that.
Wasn't my intentions and i'm having a Moderator review my Responses to stop any attacks on myself and Hopefully to prove that it is To Topic.

I took the time to read this through, and the only line I could find flammable was this one. The rest seems on topic. I do think that Bellck was trying to give honest input, but perhaps could have phrased this part a little... gentler.
I would remind everyone to stay on topic, as Snak3 observed, Moderators are watching and will keep an eye out with a fire extinguisher should things combust.

' Wrote:Because, as in any and all walks of life, people will forge friendships with powerful people (like administrators) to gain and hold on to some power, and here, unfortunately, these people control official factions.
I led Bowex for well over a year without ever knowing any Admins. I also founded the XA before that. Knowing people in positions of influence had nothing to do with it. :D
As a matter of a fact, the factions I've been in predate the existence of faction rights. Back then, there was no real advantages to making a player faction. In a trade corp in particular, joining the faction made you a liability, because you were painting a bullseye on the back of your head.
You can generally be assured of better RP from official trade corp members for just that reason. The people who have tagged themselves and thus revealed their movements to all their enemies love the NPC faction enough to know most of the facts about it.
Again, if that member has any promotions or a long service under his or her belt, you can almost be assured as good interaction, because they've survived the faction's internal rules and quality standards. In trade corps, you only join for three reasons. 1) You're hardcore, 2) You love the lore, or 3) you're extremely optimistic. All three tend to make great roleplayers. :)
' Wrote:Do the "officials" deserve more power than the independents? If all men/women are created equal... No. Do they have it anyway? Yes. In this world of ours many people have what they deserve, many people do not have what they deserve.
I think official factions get more power because it's a team effort. Everything in this mod is geared towards encouraging team play - from the arguably failed mining experiment, to the rock-paper-scissors style of ship balancing. A 10 player strong faction will have more power than 10 indies. That's because a faction isn't a 10 ships - the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.
