Admin Notice: Factions

[Madvillain]

@CorsairCouncil or whatever shared account or so:

there is a certain wish about official factions to act as examples in a positive way indeed. - however... it is a guideline because official factions have structure.

That's a rather weird argument.

it does not mean that an individual player may not act in the same way - execute the same influence on the storyline. - as a matter of fact, it is very much wished for EVERY player to act according to highest standards - not just official factions.

Nowhere I am claiming anything different....
You are preaching to the choir now.

What I understand from Cannons words is:

''Official factions have the responsibility to clearly define the traits, objectives, and operational methods that identify their members. Those methods should be implemented responsibly, and with reasonable consideration towards adversaries who may be outnumbered or overpowered, but who nevertheless are entitled to similarly pursue contrary objectives. Official factions are guardians of the reputation of their NPC faction in general, and should always seek to act in ways that cause it to be respected.''

Official factions indeed should act as tudors and as examples to members of the NPC faction in general.
They are the ones that should be able to set a guideline for the rest to follow.

''Intent of Rule 4.7:

The intent of this right is to allow official faction leadership to also provide leadership, with discretion, to independent players, to improve server gameplay, fairplay, and roleplay.

This right is NOT intended to provide the official faction leadership the right to exercise power for its own sake.''

This stands in total contrast with your idea being that a official faction should be a self serving group of players.
It should in fact , be a group of players that is focused on maintaining a good RP environment , and that's devoted to work with others instead of only looking for ways to help/have fun themselves.

Anyway, It might be that you are trying to say the same thing , but it's being put to words in a weird way...
