What is keeping you from playing?

[Kauket]

The dusty old dinosaurs can then essentially dictate every major faction in playing without actually playing it. This essentially eliminates the possibility of any new blood actually making any change or becoming an active part of the community in terms of shaping it.

For the most part, I pretty much agree with your post, and I feel that it's a collation of opinions that has been repeated time and time again. The real question, what do we do, how do we do it, and how to go about it? The solutions? What will the staff team say? What /can/ they do without invoking immense anger from many users?

But this part here, I wanted to note something regarding OFLs, anyone can make them, and anyone can form their group. They can't stop you, and they certainly cannot change lore, and I agree that groups should be less "us vs them" mentality - Especially when the population actually overlaps in playerbases. You're very likely to meet someone who has both a lawful and unlawful.

Also The "Disco Working Group" chat which had OFL leads in it giving opinion and suggestions for lore was long discontinued, so perhaps thankfully, OFLs do not really have a major ""sole decision"" in making things to a subjective view of one ideology/thoughtline.
