Community Poll: Phantoms Replacement

[kikatsu]

Why not have both?

More options sounds great.

Especially at this juncture, where the ships are just placeholders, there's real potential to branching out.

I briefly entertained the option of combining the two ideas, however I'm afraid that it would ruin both concepts. Better to let the other one fly on its own merits.

No, don't combine them, what I mean is add both or consider adding more than one faction if both proposals have merit and interest.

We don't need to create/readd/remake some dark scary phantom faction. We have problems filling the gaps we already have.

Just remove the ships or, hey, change the models/stats and the slot can be made into some other ship. There's no reason to come up with a faction that will fill some non-existent void. If a faction/idea already existed and was being played out, perhaps that could use the resources. To have a Build a Bear Workshop for factions doesn't seem to help Discovery.

I voted none.

The cat has basically said exactly what I would've. I'm not overly opposed to the faction that was chosen (at least it wasn't introducing more friggin aliens), but it feels like it was added purely to fill a perceived hole that wasn't actually a problem.

Besides which, the Omicrons are dead enough as it is from what I've seen. I'm not sure a faction whose stated purpose is to chase people out is going to help with that.

But I don't want more new aliens. Now or ever. They're almost always entirely too lazily done to be at all interesting.

Pretty much a role model for other admins,so..you have my vote

The only problem i saw in #Revenants was the close "terrorist" faction who's focusing of decreasing the omicrons and edge population even more,not like there's too much of it anyways to begin with it(even less after the zoner changes)..

#Sylossa It didn't seemed to me that adapting to pretty much everything they see in their path will secure their future on discovery server

#Etherium Was just the one that fit not only well in our server but also in my dreams of how aliens should be if they would arrive in sirius,different from the pure interpretation of nomads we have at the moment by officials factions[yeah..nom speak #facepalm]

*Voted =>

#Etherium

If you are gonna make any new faction,make it a Public ID one ,so that everyone can enjoy it and not hate it

They don't wanna believe that anyone else does..

I'm an old stick in the mud when it comes to Discovery, so I voted "none".

I just can't imagine any faction being specifically designed to succeed the Phantoms and take their place while maintaining their form being a good idea. Reusing the Phantom IFF for another faction that has no IFF of its own would be a good idea. Reusing the Phantom mindset is not.

Voted 'none'. Not going to say anything new, better stick to the factions we currently have.

[Papa Oomaumau]

I voted The Etherium without even blinking.

I've known these guys for years from DUSA, and I promise you their RP > their Pew

This is a win for the server - these guys are RP purists, and will be a joy to encounter - right before they're not.

Good on ya guys, great work!

[Enkidu]

I've heard that as well... these are worthy guys.

Edit: Playing safe = no fun. Let's take some communal risks.
