Gotta say, if these are the requirements, then it looks like you're just going to be killing a lot of official factions. is this really a good thing?
I mean the LWB has I think 6 members. Four of them run 2 official factions each and one of the other ones runs a huge unofficial faction. That would imply that they're busy, but also good people. But not good enough to be official? I'm not really sure of the benefit of doing this. Especially since it's seemed like there's been a push to get more people in factions recently. Now it's just a lot like work. Just don't really understand the point of this at all. I already go to work. This is supposed to be something fun I do when I want. But now I see that 4 of the factions I'm in are apparently not active enough, so now I feel guilty and feel like I have to go and fly around when I don't want to.
I just don't see the benefit of making factions unofficial, especially when there's been statements about how it's acknowledged that already being official means you sacrifice a lot and don't really gain anything at all.
So yeah, boo on this. I play this for fun, not to get a set amount of minutes in the air on each of my ships in turn each week.
