Same here.. I keep my BU char alive mainly because of nostalgy now. I know that admins
have a truckload of things to care about, but every other faction proposal here gets at least
'Locked, forget it' or 'Improve it guys'..
I think that a single post in here wouldn't hurt anyone would it? :sleep:

To my knowledge, no faction since Agnus Dei before the admin post has been approved, not even the ones who posted since with the 500mil in hand have been approved. There might be some general hold-up on factions, not specific to Bundschuh or the rest of us who got in before the new rule.

what new rule ?

This one: ADMIN NOTICE
Prior to this, there were no funds required for faction consideration.

I got a prompt reply to my request--as it made it on the board within a day or so of the new rule--it was, "Where's the money?"
When I finally got an admin to take money (which took two weeks) I never heard anything else again.
If there is a generic backlog, they should say something as a general announcement.
If they are only taking requests from the server's "inner circle" then they might as well just say that too.
Either way, the silence hurts play for new factions.
Sorry you are stuck.

Don't really see how hard it is to simply say Yay or Nay to a faction that has received over 30 pages of comments and opinions.
Definately not a lack of evidence anyway.
Really is strange how 'bad' faction proposals get almost immediate Admin attention, yet the people who put their time and effort into creating a good proposal, get nothing.
If no one has recently been approved or otherwise then get rid of approval etc since it seems to be irrelevant anyway, or the Admins can't keep up with it all. Maybe assign a well known person or two to manage the approvals as well as the Admins, give them a bit of help really.
Anything other than stoic silence.
EDIT: Infact this thread has got 305 replies to it, pretty much double others.

Ah, this is somewhat disheartening. I understand that there might be a bit of a backlog of work for the admins, but I'd think that they would have gotten to this after three months.

They certainly got to Das Wilde faster than this. I'm kind of disappointed, really...

Okay, while it may be bad that the Bundschuh and other factions haven't been approved yet, the admins obviously have there reasons.
One reason I could come up with is the lack of activity. By giving up, the Bundschuh, Samura etc haven't been seen in game at all. How is an inactive faction going to be given the "yes"?
I'm a member of HGL, another faction not approved yet. However, instead of giving up and stop playing our characters, we get out practically everyday and do what we are supposed to: roleplay and show our activity.
I suggest the Bundschuh and similar factions do the same, otherwise they definately won't get approved.

May be bad? It's bad.
HGL hasn't been waiting as long as the Bundschuh.
I also want to see the Bundschuh back. (So I can pirate with them)
In other news, someone edited the player groups page on the Disco wiki, and the Bundschuh have been moved from the "pending approval" sub-heading to the "completely unofficial" sub-heading. ?
