Switching Tags

[Matsuda-Shingen]

Tags GAH! Why have they gotta be so complicated :angry:

I'm trying to get my trader a planetform tag but It has an RM tag AFTER I already tried to switch it from LPI. And i'm also trying to get my Fighter a KNF tag when it's KSP. I need to find a quick and efficient way to switch tags without going OORP or that it takes so long that I lose the will to do it in the first place.

These are the methods i've been told so far...

Method 1

Just carry on doing jobs for the desired faction and evcentually you will get there.
Note: This one definatley takes too long

Method 2

Get full green for desired faction and make sure that it's second from the bottom. Destroy a few of your'e tag's factions ships until you are Neutral (pointing towards the red) with that faction. Then return to one of your'e desired factions bases and take on a mission, complete the mission, land (preferably on desired factions base), and then launch and your desired faction should be blinking and at the bottom of your known factions list in your personal status menu.

Problems with Method 2

1. Method 2 is totally OORP.
2. Your'e a bit screwed if your tagged faction is not exactly the ideal faction to be challenging in a transport.
3. When you attack your'e current tagged faction it doesn't only effect the Rep of that faction, it can (and it does for me) effect the rep of the faction you want to be, and some other faction takes it's place as number 2 in line and essentially then becomes your'e tagged faction. This is what happened when I had LPI but the RM got in under Planetform so now my trader is RM :angry:

Method 3

Reboot your character, make a new one, buy a fighter and do some missions... eventually blow up some LPI/Navy ships if you need to, noone must get to full green before your desired faction rep does.

Problems with Method 3

1. If you have a ship like a GB+ or a really expensive Transport then it can be an expensive business trying to get all that money back up again to buy it.
2. Killing your'e own ships is still OORP

Thanks to Looter for Method 3

So has anybody got any ideas or suggestions on how to change a tag other than this lot? ---^ :wacko:
