Official Factions

[Dab]

Dear Lord, eight pages ... Shall we bother with official factions at all then. If we don't, I for one shall quietly
take my leave, and you can live with the infighting, the civil wars, the lack of roleplay and respect, and of
course, a PvP server, just like all the rest out there ... Be a shame, but hey, you all seem to know best.
One other minor thing, if we ever, God forbid, have another total player wipe, only the official factions get
any form of financial help to start up again.
Be very very careful what you all wish for ... Food for thought.

If your not going to actually discuss the situation, why post? At least Del took the time to read what its about and then post according to the issue and with some content.

Well Gentlemen, let me chip in my two cents here.

Dab, what you and many others didn't understand so far, is that its not a task to set an example for others when being a member of an official faction or even leading it.
Its your god damn right!
Your are and will always be surrounded by people who hadn't much guidance, since they started playing on discovery. Those are the very people which WE can shape into the likes of people we find entertaining to role-play with instead of raging about their ooRP behavior day by day that's mostly driven by a lack of knowledge anyway. By being in an official faction, YOU are given a chance to have a positive influence on this community by helping its new members to integrate them self's. And believe me, if you approach them with your fellow faction members and don't try to bully them around with the very first sentence (bet that sounds strange to the 101st :> ), you will have a hell of an effect on them. Promise. If THAT is too much for you sir, then suggest you stay away from official factions (and maybe RP in general) as they are "too much trouble" :rtfm:

I'm sorry? I don't see how this has to do with my question in this topic. It seems more like some massive misunderstanding actually. And watch the language please. I don't want this thread to turn to flames more than it already has.

EDIT: The 500mil I also think is necessary, at least the idea behind it.. But then the faction doesn't get anything in return. Thats my problem with this whole thing. The factions don't actually GET anything for being official. Everything said so far are all things you can do whether in an official faction, unofficial, or even independent.
