Should factions receive money from the admins?

[VenomHX]

If it was to be role-played correctly then I would say yes. The amount and frequency however is up for question and speculation.

I believe that in the interest of role play it would help factions be more of a participant in role playing vs spending time trading. I am fully aware that trading/smuggling is a heavy component of -some- people's role play. I myself am fine roaming and role playing in my Sabre but I find myself putting more time into my clan's forum and into trading to help my clan and newer members more than I do actually playing. Even if I were able to receive an allotment from the Admins through a role-played agreement after we go official we would still do our convoys, but it would make it easier for us to spend time actually playing our characters, fighting corsairs, taxing playings for cargo instead of money which in itself would make traders prosper more and possibly encourage more trading factions.

I am not one of those people who has hours on end to trade, nor do I want to spend my time trading. Sometimes it feels as if all I ever do is trade with a minuscule amount of time available for actually playing. Trading isn't my hobby.

I do feel that the notions of factions receiving allotments for taxes from their house, sales from commodities, etc are viable and should be introduced. The amounts and frequency however as I stated before are up for speculation. I mean seriously, how would it be done? On a per faction basis? To the main government entity to be fiscally trickled down to factions? I think for it to actually work a full charter needs to be explored pointing out how it should be done and how it could work, in a fair way mind you.
