@Treewyrm - Well, firstly, I'd like to address your point in regards to our time existing and whatnot. Though we've only existed for a month and a half, we believe that, as we've been doing quite well whilst we've existed so far, we'll continue to do so. The official faction review period often takes three months or longer, and by the time it's over, we believe we'll have made it clear to everyone that we're here to stay, with a solidified position on the server and a faction that's either ready to be official or not. That should be clear to the admins once the long review period's over.
Secondly, I would prefer not to go into a detailed listing as to why we think we're 'better' than the 101st. Giving out a list of reasons here will spark needless argument and conflict between the two factions and the rest of the server. That doesn't need to happen, and we don't want it to. We'll let our ingame interactions speak for themselves, and let the admins and community decide, rather than try to convince them. Make sense? As for the rest of your points, about the conflict, well, that could prove to be a problem with this process, we'll have to see how things work out.
Regardless of whether or not we become official though, when we started, the 101st was around 3 days of activity. We've at least helped boost that up, and substantially so, though a lot of that is also their own effort. Activity does generate activity.
@Govedo - Well, it was something we considered, but, we want to change the way Outcasts are represented as a whole, others may disagree with us on this though. The 101st does what they want to do, and if we were to try merging with them, ultimately, they'd still be the ones running the show, and we'd be left in the back. If we were to join the 101st, getting the change we want by rising through the ranks etc could prove to be a much more difficult task. We opted for this path instead.
EDIT: About the events with the 101st in Alpha, can we refrain from assuming the worst? The outcome of that whole event actually turned out to be quite positive, both IRP and OORP, with talks with some of the 101st in the process. Furthermore, that event was sparked purely by an RP interaction earlier in 23.
