And that was a clear mistake on their sides, they chose the wrong tag obviously. However, it was also clear from the start that this faction also has a lot of untagged ships, that certainly are part of the faction. They can't be seen as indies, because they have the Wild ID. The difference with most other factions is, that this one can't exist without official status. Is such a bureaucratic rule really enough reason to disband a faction? Even after proof that the faction itself actually has enough activity if you include the untagged characters?
The faction made a mistake, sure. Thats why they were disbanded in the first place. But even after specific reconsideration while presented with evidence to back their activity up?
Sure, rules are rules. But rules are there for a purpose, and that purpose should't be DISBANDING factions because of a mistake with the tag.
