"New faction creation process and representation" discussion thread.

Del I could kiss you.

That would work beautifully.

Now on to the main questions of this post

Questions that arise from this idea:


- In order to differentiate Factions from Groups, what kind of rights should [Official] Factions have over Groups or Independent players?

Factions can own systems, ect..ect...ect. Most of this is covered by the other thread

Groups- get a tag and a place to post their descriptions for feed back.

- Should the 500m fee stay or go?

Stay but I love Del's idea about 250 mil to get a tag and a place to post your description in a separate sub forum. And an other 250 to go official.

- Should we limit the amount of official factions for each NPC group depending on the group? And what about Corporations whose headquarters are under the flag of a house?

I think it would have to be taken on a case by case basis. The Zoners could have dozens of factions and it works in RP...while having 3 Rep-Ex factions make little sense.

- Should Independent players have a representative on the council?

Personally I think so yes. That's how we do it on the Council of Zoners.

- Should Factions be able to lose those rights if they go the wrong way?

Well they get warnings to clean up their act and then if they refuse then yes they get disbanded


- Should Groups have to abide by the policies set by the Council too?

Yes, then again if the groups are paying 250 mil for their tag then they should get a seat on the council. Maybe not a voting seat but a seat so they can work with the other factions to make their NPC factions better .They key is that all the groups and factions related to an NPC faction should try to be on the same page. Now some interesting RP can come out of some dissidents withing a faction, but I think most of the decree's and decisiosn should be adhered to by all
