One which was canceled with Dublin protocol after event where Admiral's flagship was ambushed and destroyed (iirc. Or at least damaged).

I'd like to see more history and faction information than just one paragraph. While what you have isn't wrong, it's terribly basic.
Seeing as you want to represent the Molly faction on Discovery, control their RP, you should do more research, and if you have, show that you have done it. I'm not against you taking the reigns, because this does look very nice, but having led a Molly faction on another RP server, I did some major research, put a lot of time into everything, and even pushed the faction in a direction slightly apart from Vanilla RP, sort of like what you're hoping to do from what I can tell.
I'd suggest you read up on all the Dublin rumors for more perspective on the Mollys and how others view them. Every in and out, nook and cranny you educate yourself with can add a lot to a faction. Like I said, there's nothing wrong here, I'd just like to see a lot more than one paragraph of history.
If you'd like to discuss anything, or even check out some of the material I wrote down years ago in making my faction, feel free to PM me. Good luck getting this going!

Hm, something that came up while playing:
[M] is difficult to use in roleplay.
If I write: "The Mollys", people think about "indies".
If I write "The [M] Mollys", it's clearly oorp.
If I write the [M]ollys, it's oorp, too.
Can you somehow... give yourself a real name (like "The Wild Mollys, New Mollys, [Name] Mollys) that we can refer to when talking about your group?
Using the [M] is not enough to distinguish clearly and irply between your group and Mollys in general.
Jack, who hates if his ingame reports look oorp. And they do atm.

I see your problem, but not really no. You don't see "The Wild Lane Hackers" or other variations for any faction, how is this any different? You'll manage, everyone does with every faction.

We're forming the in-depth faction history/description now.
We've also got rid of the Bastard 'rank' and have set free access to all members except the Scylla that will be Leadership + SRP of members only and Gunboats that is SRP of members only too.

I had such a good laugh when I saw this but....really man ? You would beg them to be your friends ? I mean..no wonder they made fun of you, after they made you call yourself a dirty boy
You do realize you represent an proud Mollys, freedom fighter, drunks, you make people cease fire with guns not by making yourself in complete sissies. I like you folks and all..but this is just embarrassing.

Also, I strongly suggest to tell your members to get involved in the Dublin events. As it is now, it looks like they are in a cage. IMG comes and attacks Mollys around Arranmore, and indies show more RP interaction then your boys.
This is a wrong approach. If you can't handle the situation quickly, at least allow your members to do what they want when there's an incident happening. Because, to be honest, what happened today in Dublin was awesome for everyone except for your faction. One of your members didn't just watch though, but attacked the Reaver, and I'm satisfied with him.
Also, as far as I know Mollys, they'd never let an outsider attack their own outside of their base. I would even prefer if you took IMG's side on this one, that'd be better then being 'innocent bystanders.'

For todays dublin event:
' Wrote:As I said ingameI do kinda agree with chopper though, although the insane [m] who attecked the reaver in a bargy...
Anyway; I still think your first 3 ranks should be:
Rookie
Veteran
Ace
Like it is ingame.
As for cap ships, I think your best bet would be to make several faction shared gunboats, and one or two shared scyllas, perhaps restricting the gunboats to vets and up, and the scylla to ace's and up. That way mollys dont all own their own ships, but they are still encouraged to join your faction rather than make an indie cap.

Bargy? Please. The one i pop'd was a HF.

And plus, with you boys destabilizing, do tell.

I don't think it's very important which ship it was, or who destroyed it under what circumstances.
On topic, what I was trying to say, but maybe said it in a wrong way...
I think you should be far more proud and aggressive then you are now.
Asking for cease fire with the Gaians + not doing anything in the IMG-Mollys situation is kind of weak.
I hope you will change this and won't let anyone play with you in the future. You have multiple choices of course, I am not telling you which one to take.
Maybe contacting other groups would do the trick. Consider new alliances, and most importantly - try to change something in Molly roleplay, take a different approach from those taken in the past. I think 'peace' has been killing a lot of Molly activity in the past, but that's just me.
