Regarding the Core's purchase request of 74

[Agmen of Eladesor]

Agmen, you're also wrong. Under the new server rules, only one official NAVY FACTION per NPC navy faction allowed. This has nothing to do with pirate factions, trading factions, and non-house military groups such as BHG, nor does it affect the Zoners.

But ignore me and keep arguing pointlessly.

Effectively immediately, applications to become an official faction will be limited to one player faction per NPC faction and thus there will be only one official player faction per ID.
Official player factions must act in a manner that complies with the NPC faction.
Other player factions applying for official status may use a generic ID.
This applies to all new applications.
Existing player factions are not affected by this change.

Is there a limit to the number of generic ID'd factions?
No. There is no limit to the number of factions using generic ID's.
At present, I believe there is only one official faction using a generic ID on the server (the Mandalorians).

I don't consider this a pointless argument, since (as was pointed out) you are incorrect. (Remember, Dab, I was part of the discussions that led up TO the creation of this rule - and while I no longer have access to them, there are parts of this forum that moderators don't have access to, only admins, where we discussed super secret things like which gauge of aluminum foil to make our conspiracy hats out of...)

Pirate, Freelancer, Independent Trader, Miner and Mercenary are the really about the only ones considered generic ID's. Bounty Hunter, Zoner, Corsair - none of those are generic ID's, and thus are limited to the one ID per faction rule.

EDIT: Also please note that nowhere here - http://discoverygc.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=1746 - the original faction creation rules - or in here, the system purchase approval thread http://discoverygc.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=30191 does it state that there is a limit to the number of systems that a faction may own.

Also note that, quite frankly, we don't want Omicron-74 as a GUARD system, per se. We just want to OWN the system... Heck, I'll even be willing to share the system with another faction if they wanted to put a base off in a corner somewhere.

2nd Edit - Shipyards, raw materials, and our own Freeport to make money from storage, along with a secured route from Theta to Kappa / Delta in case our NAP with the Corsairs breaks down. That's worth buying...

Oh god... The end of days... Agmen agreed with me.
