RE: Faction Activity - January - Tunicle - 01-02-2014
Laura C. has summed up what has appeared in many threads over the last couple of years.
Indy = toys without accountability
RE: Faction Activity - January - Remilia Scarlet - 01-02-2014
Yea, that's all right. But as was said - it's getting repeated for N times through X years with zero effect. So it's just empty bla bla bla.

Maybe faction leaders need to step up too and begin to bug the devs/admins more aggressively?
This is a community, we should all be about working together toward a better goal.

Taking the toys out of the indies hands into the official factions?
Sorry.
Ain't gonna happen.
Ever.
Not due to the inherent issues of bias and elitism that would without a doubt appear if that happened.
But due to the dev's/admins.
Let's face it. Today's MMO's, if you want something really frickin' shinny, you either pay for it or you join a faction/group/clan that obviously carry more benefits than being another nameless one in the crowd.
Why is that? Because they are Massive Multiplayer Online games.
It is meant to be played in groups. It's more fun in groups. They have pie.
All the cool and shinny toys and quests/missions and whatever, because that is what brings people to the games. Not idly sit alone in your frickin' +9000 level equiped toon/battleship and run like a headless chicken.
So yeah. Factions are dying because being an indie, you have the toys, you can go all blitzkrieg and being an a*******, as long you don't break the server rules, and you don't have a whole faction breathing down your neck to stay inrp.
Or Dusty's grams.
But that's a whole different level.
Thus, i conclude with the following reply to all of this.
Big whoop. You didn't need to be a clairvoyant to see where the mod's general direction was going and the consequences of it.
Believe it, bub. Factions leaders have step up in the past. Didn't do jack'frickin'O.
Bananas.

This is about the Faction activities and the problem with the tracker.
So lets keep you Q_Q against or for Official factions to another tread, all your posts are not actually helping in getting the Faction Tracker fixed .
RE: Faction Activity - January - Lythrilux - 01-02-2014
Yeah, it's actually pretty disappointing thinking how this thread is completely flying over the devs/admins head.
RE: Faction Activity - January - Wraga - 01-02-2014
restrict caps, open wilde, give rainbow ponies for everybody!
RE: Faction Activity - January - Felix_Wannamaker_III - 01-02-2014
I left because I went from hardware failure to a full classload fall semester and came back to no ships at all, save a few fighters. But this isnt the larger problem.
I agree that there needs to be some incentive to being official, but limiting ships isnt the answer. Some other carrot is needed, if you want to keep organized fleet/police factions going. Also, many of these are criminal groups, who have little to do with cap issues. There has to be a way to incentivise pirates to go official.
RE: Faction Activity - January - Aazalot - 01-02-2014
Random thought, If theres a few official factions who are of the same Faction ID etc. If they are struggling prehaps maybe merging togeather might work?
