concerning factions and their influence

[.Gypsy.]

Ok not to start a flame war, but I am just going to ask the obvious:

How is SRP'ed ships and items going to encourage faction activity?

It won't, it will hurt it. SRP's are too hard to get, not to mention 250 mil is nothing to sneeze at. I know I would not be willing to risk losing 250 mil on a no, it takes too long to make. Also many players don't visit or register on the forums. There is also the issue that MANY players don't speak English so you will never get RP from them.

@Sarawr!?

NOPE.

- Self edit

You wouldn't believe how many self edits Ive had to make lol

As for Liberty, that sounds like a good way to run a faction if your saying it a ruling council rather then one single leader, but do the lower echelon ever have a chance to move into that ruling elite? (I'm asking as I have no idea, not a member)

I dont think the changes I mentioned would make factions a majority, but it would drastically increase there presence, which is allot better then it is now I think.

In any case though I wish it was a bit easier to join a faction or there was more freedom in a faction, I don't have any issue with how it is now, I'm merely contributing to the discussion and topic of how I think things could be better. I actually don't expect anything to change as these threads rarely do actually change anything and usually devolve into chaos.
