Why is it no against the rules for 1 person to be leader of more than 1 official ftcn

[Yeggito]

Bare minimums of server activity are not a justification for keeping a faction going! Running a grave yard shift so that your faction does not lose its official position is what is wrong with this server. Such an attitude stops others from stepping in and adding a fresh dimension to the operation and involvement of a faction and pushing it forward.

You will not get that kind of dedication from a faction leader running more than one faction.

Factions being carataker'd by multi-faction leaders should be stripped, to allow a new faction to take its place or a fresh leader found for the fledgling faction.

Hey BW,

Great points. I spoke from a position that fears a situation where a faction's leadership is stripped away (as the leader is already 1iC of another faction), and instead of someone stepping in to take their place with gusto, the faction it loses structure, and wilts.

It could go either way, and is faction/person dependent.

Speaking from some degree of ignorance, as I'm only a few months into Disco, it's a bit of a shame to see people that are 1iC / 2iC / high-level officers of several factions inactive / rarely active. Perhaps some have left for a predetermined amount of time, some are semi-inactive, and some are gone for good.

If a good chunk of your upper-level officer core is inactive, I believe the faction's activity suffers (no one to organize / plan reasons to log), but, at this point in time, who can actually remove them, so someone can step in? Because there are no rule governing activity, it's quite the gray area. Rules would be tough as well; if you had a rule on how many "Comms" you could miss (for example, three in one month), is that reasonable? If that were a rule, would faction leaders report other factions for "unsatisfactory responses" or "RP"? It would work, sure, as it would "prune" away the more inactive factions.

So, do we want less factions, but those that remain are active? Or, more factions, but the playerbase spread thin?

That's a matter of opinion. Good discussion!
