Official Faction status and its obligations

[Toris (Old Account)]

I see many Officials ignoring non-official players, not RP-ing with them unless it is convenient and more or less pretending that they don't exist. It seems there is no standard of conduct required for what amounts to the people that have volunteered to be the governing powers in the game; privilege without obligation.

Official factions can mop indies around and even FR5 them if they see it fit. Being threatened by official faction if you do not fulfill the official faction's roleplay is something that successfully fends you away from roleplaying indie faction IDs.

Being victim of such a threat by official faction in the past, I can tell this is not the way to provide healthy roleplay enviroment to indies.
