My thoughts concerning factions/Indies and other such stuff.

I would say that's logically consistent, though I think we'd lose some RP opportunities and a lot of RP over it.

Well sure, "we" being the big groups.

But as they have already said in so many ways, "We are big and you can't stop us"--so what's the real loss? they already have power and organization--there's a lot of rp in that. And having an "on forum voteing government" can be part of the rp as well:

"The faction of such and such a party moves that we institute this and that new regulation and asks for a second"

"Seconded"

"Any questions or debate?"

"Motion Sustained/Withdrawn"

"Vote/Dismissed"

It puts them in the same boat as everyone else, their role play has to become collaborative with everyone--not just members and supporters of their own faction.

And if people wanted a grand admiral, they would vote for one.

You would not hear ONE PEEP outta me if a server rule or democratically and server legal regulation were created--even if I hated and abhorred it. I might propose a vote for an alternative but I would readily live with the "law of the land" if everyone had a say in its creation and imposition.

Look at every post I've ever made (crosses fingers)--I have never griped about a server rule "being stupid" or said "I don't think I should have to do that cause its dumb". If its a rule, its a rule.
