That's the whole issue, factions don't respect indies. If you are an indie you are guilty until proven innocent by the factions.
Since respect, or lack thereof is mutual, that means you're telling the indies that your factions don't deserve respect either.
On top of that, the indies that don't rp well aren't even on the forums. The ones registering are overwhelmingly active on the forum and in factions anyway.
The whole thing is pointless and causes more issues than it fixes.
