Should official factions have more power?

[Sarawr!?]

I'm doing it wrong? Well, sir, I'd rather do it wrong than become a dictator as such. What right does a player really have to take away someone's right to correctly setup their ship and RP on this server? None. We have no right at all to do that. Not even the Admins have a right to do that without cause.

The idea that a player should theoretically get more power than an admin is...scary, to be honest. If I wanted to buy a Hessian Cruiser and RP a Hessian commander stationed in Omega-3, I should be able to. Am I contradicting canon RP? No, there are Hessian NPCs there. If I wanted to buy a Corsair Freighter and RP an artifact liaison to the Hogosha in Sigam-19, I should be able to without any questions asked. However, if I wanted to take a Corsair Legate to Tau-29 and sit outside Nago not hostile to the NPCs roflpwning Outcast smugglers as they come along, the player factions are able to take action against me. Is that so wrong? I don't understand the problem with the way things are now....

Now, if it were carried out this way, that would be perfect, but I honestly fear that giving factions power over indie players is a bad idea, because for all anybody knows, the said indie could just be doing something within the rules, that a faction member just happens not to like, and...I dunno, do you see what I'm getting at though?
