Indies; why do we need them/what is good about them?

[Jeremy Hunter]

We're all indies. Some of us have put tags before our names for easy /fi.

Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

*clap*

Without indies, Rod (when he was,Rodent) wouldnt have flown into a mini razor. My mini razor to be exact.

All of us were/are indies.

Im one of the most well known Order indie besides the TCG. We all have our RP. We have room to innovate, stretch the RP. Lolwuts are the problem.

Russell told me having the OCV tag is an immediate label as lolwut.

OCV =/= lolwut
LNS =/= lolwut

Most lolwuts do not follow the predescribed naming convention. But thise who do, now get the others called lolwut.

If we take this, and make, as Pacific wants (my example) the Order a faction-only like the HF or SCRA, you see those non-lolwut indies? They's bread discontent. You make any more factions invite only, the server population will dry up. Minor will never be crowded. No real battles. Indies bring the extra help officals need, or maybe a new player group to add another aspect to the faction.

Indies make up 80% of most non-closed factions. Take that away, there will be a gazillion fighters/bombers, floating around, everywhere, doing nothing. Alpha, Gamma, Minor, all empty.

We need indies. This is not Factionlancer.

I probably went off on a bit of a tangent, sorry...
