In the future, when somebody posts feedback about the way your members are Role-Playing in game, take it as feedback. Do not start getting defensive and screaming, "where's the proof?" and "these baseless occusations." This thread is made in part to accept criticism, not to "stand innocent until proven guilty in a court of law."
Thanks, very helpful.

To counterpoint them, my own experiences have been nothing but positive thus far. I smile when I see one of these lads stroll on by.
To be fair I've nothing "constructive" to say as there's nothing that I wish to nitpick. Kudos for sticking to one of the less desirable jobs around here, a trading faction.
What in the world are you basing this off of? Do you have any evidence that we have not been behaving at anything besides the regulation RP?
I personally know all of my men and I know that they have the ability to perform top notch RP. If you have pointless complaints like this, send them through personal message to me, with evidence. Don't sour a faction creating request with baseless accusations.
I have to say, your huge convoys can look strange at first, it just look like a big pile of ships, but its efficient for protection and it proves you can organise yourselves as a faction.
Hmmm, why canadians are the only to have a sig image.
The proposal has been updated with the new CMU, convoy management utility, and the Lottery.

As for the CMU, to prevent potential abuse from exteriors, every new registered account will be added to the pending group, you will only be able to see the members and announcements, convoy sheets will be unavaliable for pending accounts.
CEOs (or me if they are both offline) will promote you to member once your identity will have been confirmed.

Out of that, I'm really glad to be part of the USI. Very interesting people and roleplay, escorting a convoy of 6 huge transports and organize with the other escorts is sometimes rather complicated. Timezones don't help either but we manage to do pretty well.
Encounters with pirates or other players somehow have more depth, talk and are more interesting, except some KoFs that metagame against us and that's sad if two groups of the same faction can't even be allys.
We try to do our best to make both groups (or players) that encounter us have a good roleplay time. It can happen we sometime do mistakes, and doing mistakes is human. Telling to the concerned is a good thing, and will improve the game for everyone.

See you in space !
Hmm is there a possibility that you can tell how does it work? I have signed in it, but I don't know the features and how to use them. Otherwise this is a great idea. :)
It's easy. Since you joined the group, go in friends in steam. Open the group by clicking on the - and right click on every member of the group and do Add as friend. then we'll be able to chat !
edit : my bad, seeing the last connection date, I assume you don't have the program ^^ get it at http://www.steampowered.com
You guys have gotten so much better since when I first encountered you. You guys are doing a great job, and that coming from someone with 11 million worth of bounties against me from you, anyway, leaps and bounds of improvement, I have really enjoyed our recent run ins. But now that I have 11 mil in bounties against me, that might have to be the new price for your ships.

This I would like to See proven first of all. I have known the KoF for a good deal of time, and that is something I do not think they would condone. Along with that, I know that attempts were made to increase KoF and USI friendship. Which were a little harshly dealt with, acting as if the USI were the Faction Holders and the KoF were a secondary unofficial Faction. Work on that...
As for the USI Faction, I've seen good and I have seen Bad. Good being that you manage to coordinate such large groups rather efficiently, you apparently keep your members in order. And along with that you take up a heavy mantle of becoming a large trader faction.
If you continue the work and continue working on your Roleplay, I'm sure you will do fine.
O ya. And allow other traders to possibly join your convoys. In my experience seeing you around, your faction seems very "Exclusive." Open yourselves up alittle.
