In the for what it's worth department - in each of the times we in the BHG| have had an issue where official orders have been issued to an indie player, it has been within the rule requiring either the faction leader or the 2ic. Note that this is as a player, and not as a character. Thus, it doesn't matter whether I'm on the BHG|C-Guildhall and acting as Max DeVirgo, or on the BHG|Castor.Pollux and just flying as a regular hunter.
That is where we can have a problem, just to use the [LN] as an example. I'm quite sure that Joe has more than one character in the [LN], although I could be mistaken. He probably doesn't always fly Admiral Hale. So it's quite possible that the lowlife [LN] ensign COULD be Joe, just not in his David Hale persona. And thus, regardless of him being in game as a lowlife Ensign, he's still able to issue orders under the faction rights. And have them stick.
