Should official factions have more power?

Yes, to elaborate I dont think changing an ID to a rogue ID should just be a simple command. I think either it should have to go through a process, like a sanction does (through the FRC maybe?) or it has to be a command that has to be used more than once.

Say any one of the higher ranking members of a faction can use this /rogue command. They can only use it in proximity and can only use it once every x minutes/hours/day. When used it will raise a characters rogue level, or rogue reputation, as you could make it part of the rep system if you wanted. The level would decrease over time but if it got over a certain level, poof, there goes your regular ID and you are stuck with a rogue ID.

If the player disagrees with it, they can appeal it to the FRC, and the official faction will have to prove the player earned the rogue ID. If the player wants to shape up then the faction and the player can ask the FRC to switch it back. The player alone can also ask to have it switched back, but will have to go through an extended process without the support of the faction.

EDIT: I would again like to emphasize that the FRC would not be making decisions based off of their opinion of the situation, they would be making them based off of a concise and thorough set of rules and guidelines. When voting they should probably be required to cite the rules they feel apply to justify their vote. In the beginning there will probably also need to be an admin present to help clarify and revise the guidelines when a situation comes up that they do not adequately address.


PS. I realize this is a somewhat far-fetched idea, but it is just an idea, perhaps it can be used to come up with some less far-fetched ideas. Feel free to provide feedback though.
