Not everyone is motivated for disco, and sometimes it just gets repetitive. There's only so much you can do in the game before it gets boring. Probably the only thing that doesn't get boring is RPing and pvp. The biggest 'putter-offer' is the fact that people judge others oorply and outright not interact with others.
I agree, you can offer as much as you want, reward it with as much money you want. When people however do things only for the reward, the quality of the job being done is usually low, as people don't do it with ambition but just to claim the money. The Seraphim offers cargo hauling contracts for a long time now, nobody does it really. Narcrahtite-Mining in event systems? All people log their low-RP transports and pay the bare minimum to the miner while claiming most of the money themselves. Those trading events should be very rare, maybe only one or two per year, because nobody bothers to do the other hauling stuff anymore.

If you are only logging to meet a monthly criteria, on an Activity Tracker, is there any point to your Faction?
I log to play the Game, not because I need to meet some hours.
'I would like to be half as clever as some people like to believe they are' Life is full of disappointments, it is how we handle them that helps to define us, as a person
When players become faction leaders, most of them enjoy leading their faction -- for about two months. Then they get bored or get a RL job, and thus become inactive, but for some reason they don't feel like handing their Disco job to someone else who is more active.
Others always enjoy leading their factions and do it very energetically. But then those certain persons get banned for leading too energetically.
Activity triangle: Basic movement within the house, mostly trading -> unlawful/attacking elements can go and attack those or do other rp with them -> law enforcement can now go and do it's thing efficiently.

Really? It's not a competition. Log when you want, as always.
That's not the point. When you log when nothing's going on you risk flying around without any actual payoff, interactions or pvp. When tracker was active you'd at least get the payoff of "hey we got some time online". I might as well play something else in that case.
