It is a long time in the future, we are glad to bring something new to the game. United States itself has 17.1% Hispanic or Latino origin people, I would imagine that the use of language would alter in this way as a reasonable alternative. But that aside, it is just a way for us to differentiate ourselves, turns out there has been a faction that at times has called itself the First Fleet without us realizing - and we have grown to love the new name, unanimously agreed on faction-wide. I am sure the meaning behind it will be associated with us eventually. Actions are more important than words anyways as they say - god knows we have had enough fleets
As to the dismissal - it obviously does not apply to the Navy as a whole and was done silently for oorp reasons and presented in RP without any process or evidence. There is no mechanic that could enforce it to all Navy. I could appeal and clean this in RP but honestly, it was just better to move on - the differences of character of the people behind this are such that a split without dwelling on it has been for the best. I wish them the best of luck, but I consider this matter behind us as far as The First Armada and this character are concerned. I am pretty sure 46th Feel the same way, and if someone else doesn't, it will be on staff to decide if this can be in any way enforced.
Thank you for taking your time in answering! As to being respectable - well, let's face it, we are here for fun, friendships and activity first and foremost. We will make mistakes, often times do before we think and instantly try out all "cool" ideas of our members, some of them might be misfires but it's important for us that Liberty has a faction where people can get excited, be creative without worrying too much about making mistakes (besides breaking server rules, which we will strive to avoid).
If that means not having respect of some part of the community but appealing to another - well that is all right, approaches how to play the game differ after all
