Player Bases Idea

[Teerin]

Welp. That kinda of talk again.

Lets get the groans and moans out of our system.

I had a bit of a thought come to mind as of late when it came to myself looking at all the player bases on the server. 79 Bases. Seventy.... Nine... Kinda much don't you think?

So a question came to mind: How can we reduce all these into a far more manageable amount to help the server stability and problems along with POB's?

This is my idea:

Bases would be reduced to 1 Lawful and 1 Unlawful per house.

Lawful Total across Sirius and Gallia: 5 Total Bases.

Unlawful Total across Sirius and Gallia: 5 Total Bases.

Now there would be exemptions to this rule:

Bases permitted to factions without a House:

Outcasts - Corsairs - GMG - Junkers - CR - IND - SCRA - IC - IMG

Factions Questionable:

Zoners - Council - HF

This part of the idea leaves out quite a few factions. Quasilawful groups (Hogosha, Unione Corse, Gallic Junkers), independent factions (RoS, BHG/BHG|Core, Order) or unlawfuls with few allies (Unioners, Xenos, AFA).

Provided it's given a list that's more well thought through, it's a good idea, SMI. I am, however, a bit against it at the moment.

"You see what your knowledge tells you you're seeing. ... how, what you think the universe is, and how you react to that in everything you do, depends on what you know. And when that knowledge changes, for you, the universe changes. And that is as true for the whole of society as that is for the individual. We all are what we know, today. What we knew yesterday, was different; and so were we."
