So you condemn any trading faction that isn't directly affiliated to an NPC faction? I don't agree with that.

And I can honestly promise they won't be some neutral group. Pirates already don't like them. Mine tenderly refers to them as "whine-px". Let their RP grow. Don't cut it down before it has even started just because it isn't an NPC aligned faction. There's nothing wrong with an independant (from the NPC factions) trading org. If you think there is, that's your opinion, but it has no constructive use for this idea.

Dont cut down their RP? They have no RP here I can seem to ascertain except they are independent. So basically they are just a group of trader flying together and looking after each other. Sorry, but I think becoming an official faction here should require more. I also didn't say they would be neutral. I would like to know how they will contribute to the existing RP of the server, more than just being a group of traders/smugglers. The main reason I think it is a good idea to work with the existing company factions is that it gives you a built in connection to the existing RP of the server, it gives you a road map to how to have an impact on the RP. I have not seen these folks in game, but I should really have to see them in game to get some idea of the RP, and all I see is "we are independent traders that use pretty much any lawful ship outside cruisers and BS's, and pretty much any weapon, even though we have not contacted the respective factions for any type of permission to use them."



Also there is nothing that says you cant take one of the existing factions and make them what you want them to be. You want to do something interesting? Be a subside ray of Kishiro or Dauman or any of them, call it a "New Venture by IC" or you could be " A Diversification of Assets by DSE." There are a plethora of possibilities, dont write it off so quickly.
