Exactly, you did it 100% propper. You got freinds to be subordinate THEN claimed flag rank.

Of course the irony is despite your rank, according to [LN] their newest recruit outranks you.

That said I cant blame them TOO much after some of the indies Ive seen latley ......
Just PM any LR- you see.

Sit back.

Technically, thats incorrect. The only rank that can truely order any independent regardless of the situation is the Leader / Vice Leader of the official faction. Anything else, its entirely up to the person being ordered (given the situation, as in some cases canon RP would force you to do it anyways).

That said, those independents who are recognized by the official faction under the rank their character is are generally given command equivalent to the same rank under that offical faction's roster.

(Example, my LSF, Krusa Corraine, is recognized by the =LSF= as a Director. Even though I don't necessarily order people around, that would in effect allow me to give orders to Agents, being lower-ranked.)

Lastly, to the Titanic References and the Iceberg image Mudd posted. Everyone knows that the iceberg engaged without notice. In addition, it was significantly larger than the liner. Essentially making it a Cruiser or Battleship classed object.

Please banhammer the iceberg of a lolcapwhore.
