Infact you suggest here that you should be careful with official factions and not associate yourself with them overly, to avoid becoming prominent, and thus avoid sanctions.
In that thread, you advise indies not to join official factions, and alienate themselves from them. This attitude is actively discouraging of official faction activity and recruitment. This coupled with your thread here demanding more official faction activity is contradictory at best...
"DO NOT JOIN OFFICIAL FACTIONS"
*watches as people are put off from joining official factions*
"AH-HAH! Now I can put pressure on factions to be more active and make them look bad."
You also say that official factions should respond to communication channel stuff in a timely manner... In the link I posted you said players should avoid forum exposure in order to avoid becoming a target. This is also contradictory.
I suggest you swap roles with me for a month.
I will tell you that you have to be more active, respond to everything immediately and fly thirty bilion hours every day of your life, never sleep, never work, never eat, and do nothing but run a faction... And at the same time I will tell independants not to join a faction, using scare tactics like saying "You will get sanctioned if you do".
While I give you a hard time, you will run the faction, keeping the members happy, the people you interact with in game happy (both enemy and allied, neutral, demanding, easy going, the lot), work in the Liberty Government, hold down a job and a social life, and function in an admin capacity... And then you tell me if you resent posts like the one you made in this thread after experiencing that.
Give it a try. Then, if you do a better job than me... That's when you have the right to call me lazy. Okay?
