Official Faction status and its obligations

[Toris (Old Account)]

But then we shouldn't push indies into same bag and overgeneralize. I know several indie players who have top-notch RP but doesn't want to join official faction for different reasons. Those reasons are usually dislike towards the faction leader or certain members within the faction - or simply wishing for more freedom from official roleplay and/or explore potential of the lore unused by the officials.

The latter, however, are the main reason why there's are serious grudges between indie-official relations. If an indie wants to explore area that wouldn't harm the official's lore, the indie player is shunned - or even insulted and threatened with outright FR5. And that's wrong.

Sure, if the player's idea is just ridiculous with no basis within lore - then it is something to be shunned upon. But it's a wholly different case, if someone is shunned for doing sort of a roleplay that is logical from the enviromental and political point of view - in short.
