Even though I agree there are faction leaders who remain so for the power it provides over a specific NPC faction, there are also those who invested a lot of time and effort into their respective factions. What's to stop a certain lore designer from fueling his OoRP grudges towards a faction leader by automatically denying every idea that is thrown at him and trying to hurt the NPC faction in a not so obvious way? I've met way too many people who passionately hate a certain NPC faction. There's also the issue of possibly having a lore designer who isn't as knowledgeable about a faction as its leader is, and has a lot less experience with it. What criteria should be put in place for someone to become a lore designer, considering that the position would be ridiculously open for abuse?
