If you could change one thing about discovery what would it be?

Ok other one- I would like to see factions with more power and more attractive to the players, before you go Not U/Factionlancer read it:

Strange I have quite the opposite observations. Right now there are 10 indie players to one faction player ratio.Witch is not good at all.
Thinking about this what Clyide said in his statistics and seeing the server I am quite sure that you are not right.
For the unofficial factions well- some are doing extremely well with a lot of members- [Convoy] for example have more players then the official faction that owns the ID.

I would actually ask quite the opposite-more bonuses for faction players. A year ago there was the same discussion and I told the same thing:
Where is the benefit of Indie player A(with B id and iff) in joining faction B?
-with faction tag he will be Metagamed,
-he should show activity in Forums and message dumps
-he should show good RP, he should obey the faction leaders and be restricted by the ship usage
-he should answer the rage spilled in the feedback forums.

There are only obligations actually, if you have a couple of friends to play the NPC faction together you dont need to join the official one.

So I would like to see as I said in the armours topic higher grade armours for official faction Flagship(Cap9 X6 for example only one per official faction).
I would like to see some slightly overpowered restricted official factions ships too , not many of them but at least 2 or 3 per faction.
The People should have any motivation in order to join official faction, because now is harder to be official facton player then the same NPC faction player.

From this point of view indeed the unofficial factions who in a way copy the official ones in restrictions
but dont have even the faction rights to use and the authority of the official faction suffer even more.

The other point is that there are more then 60 official factions- the half of them have 3-5 people who are in and are quite dead in my opinion but they dont leave the place and the ID for other people who could organise faction better then them, so that's why unofficial factions exists.
If the system wasn't broken there will be no need for unofficial ones.

Official faction players that are often accused of elitism, never deploy them and have those weird, immersion killing "fair fight/dueling" suicidal hobbies. (yes, i've seen enough of those lolduels, where house military with overwhelming force on the field willingly loses a pilot in a duel. ffs.)
