Official Factions

[Zelot]

Ok, First of Dab, you are a member of the development team and have been for a good while, so when you say "I have designed 6-7 systems blah blah blah" you speak as though anyone can make any system they want, which is not true. Second, all this talk about faction members talking about this or that on skype about factions loosing their power? I haven't heard any of that from my faction members in the Brotherhood or the AFA, nor have I heard it from anyone in the factions I am in, I dont hear it from the LR, and I dont hear it from the RM, I dont hear it from Joe and the Ros folks, nor the Benitez. So please people lets not act like this is all factions members feeling something.



To the main issue, I run two factions here, and I didnt do it to police what other people do. If you think the main benefit of being an official faction is that you get to dictate to and bully your npc faction independents, then you did it for the wrong damn reason, and you should pull down your faction post right now. The role of an official faction is to be an example, not a fascist. We get to have a significant affect on the way the role play develops for the entire npc faction. I think that is significant. System owning factions get to design a system that fits their specifications, for their role play. That is also significant.



If you dont think you get something out of it, dont do it, but the role of a faction is not to decide who can get a ship. If they do something wrong with the ship, deal with it in rp. You dont like it? Pull down that faction post.
