' Wrote:You will find that he is not asking them to rule over anyone. Nor is he asking for them to have absolute control. He is not anti-indie, he is anti-idiot. There is a considerable difference between asking for a faction to be able to regulate the Capital Ships, thus reducing the number of those which end up in the hands of complete morons, and giving them complete control of everything that comes out of their Shipyards.

They answer to nobody, and can effectively shoot whoever and whatever they want, provided they give a simple one line of text.
Do you really think a faction-regulated system, given the power, will approve a one-line capital ship registration?
Of course not. Factions expect their players to be on for months if not years before moving on the the largest ships.
You can't really blame the factions- after all, they have put a lot of work into their RP and it's only logical that they should want the power to destroy anybody within the NPC faction who disagrees with them.
