Well that's quite redundant. If you want morph then it's the old-fashioned way you did, but for all this new open nomad ID it's just restart command, no need to make Trial character first.

Looks like an bug crawled in. Thanks for spotting.

You ever stopped to think that this kind of attitude keeps a lot of people from ever applying?
Edit: To clarify, of course people got individual thoughts, ideas and opinions, but sometimes it is very obvious when those opinions are solidly anchored in their faction membership (as in the case above).
Members of the factions are not PR managers and in my opinion shouldn't be treated as, lest they are spokespersons and distinctly speak for the whole faction, and the one above was clearly not due to disclaimer. Despite that you've decided to take it out of personal opinion context and apply as if it was a view of a whole faction, quite a stretch there. People have their own opinions and views, some like it and some don't, well that's fine really, long as you're able to distinct when it's a personal opinion or a faction public statement. Otherwise it would seem to me you're suggesting a lot of people have reading difficulties or some other forms of comprehension obstacles, like certain some having a chip on a shoulder.
'solidly anchored in their faction membership' - Well, tell me then, what actual statistics on opinions held with the faction do you have? Probably had majority of members interviewed, yes? I guess here the answer is far more obvious than yours.
