"New faction creation process and representation" discussion thread.

[Blodo]

All right, fair enough, but how about introduce a refund should the faction be granted official status? This should give people even greater motivation to get it right the first time.

Anyways, this isn't as important as the first question in my post. I would like a comment about how poised the admins are to force in the "council" system, considering the likely detriment it will have to faction RP. A council idea is a great RP idea, if the people making it aren't forced to stay in it. If they are forced to do so, they no longer have anything to lose (can't get kicked out, can't leave on principle, can't dissolve the council to make a point... etc. etc.) so it changes the way they behave, and then - it's no longer believable. Do you see my point?
