Back when I still joined factions, it was a combination of sentiments already mentioned here. I liked the NPC faction, liked the player vibes and wanted to be a part of something bigger/more influential than a solo pilot.

But that was a long time ago, before OFs got nerfed. Nowadays I don't think there's much of an incentive to join factions, official or unofficial, besides the vibes part. Actually making an official faction is even worse of a time investment.
