Also, we could work out a complement to that in the forums. Something sticked and locked, not for discussion, but for reference. Something like AC_Merc's faction guide, but for the NPC factions. A more in depth description of what each faction is and how, in general, its members are seen. Nothing to restrict players, but stereotypes to serve as molds. It's always easier to create a character from something like that and then detail it than creating it from thin air. Specially if the person has no idea where to start and/or has no idea what the NPC factions are about.
I'm very glad something this positive and constructive has come out of this.:yahoo:
