This topic is too old. I don't think that there is will for solutions.
I also understand why the situation is like that, there are bunch of bad trolls both among faction players and among indie players. The only real disadvantage of the factions is chat list/player list, if the chat list is fixed the rest should be ok.
Otherwise factions would continue to sux compared with indies, none is idiot enough to let the trolls gank him 10 to 1 because it happens that they have more ships at that time, chat list metagaming is the real problem of the factions.
The rest should not be so important if this is fixed.
