Official faction activity

[Rapur]

Specific examples will incite a flame war.

Any faction that is doing the bare minimum to hang on to activity and their NPC ID should get active or get out. Do you disagree? I think factions should be vivacious, dynamic, and active, and if an official faction fails to accomplish this and cannot regain its livelihood once more, my opinion is that the ground should lie fallow for a month or two. Is that such a calamity?

Instead of asking for 300 hours a month (which is way too much), you should think of stuff that promotes roleplay. I mean, you know what people do if they need hours to keep themselves official? Space idling. Do we really need that? Not really. I wouldn't mind the 30 hours/month if the faction during that time would actually do something instead of going afk (I've seen it numerous times) in space.

Edit: as I said before, the RP events are a good idea. Try finding more ideas like this.
