Quote:Nobody really pirates for the money but for the interaction.
I do pirate for money, because that's my roleplay. That's how my character earns money, due to half-closed economy. Don't forget such a thing is still a thing around here.

Actually, I found the monthly e-peen contest quite interesting, because you had a good transparency on the activity and quality delivered by the factions. I mean, we sort of know which faction leaders are completely incompetent when we look at what factions have literally no presence but a leader, but maybe that would remind people of actually doing something.
Low activity on my side because I lack time to play.
Nevertheless, doing some proposals here and there.
The idea is to develop some roleplay and events related to the Munich situation. The intent is to go beyond trade events.
Unioners have been consistently active and enjoying themselves, despite very little to do in Rheinland and a hostile Liberty, and an OFL who is only around some of the time. We've been trying to give counter-log activity to RHA, 5th fleet, and encourage newer factions like Harmony, too.
When there's nobody around to go and make piracy demands of, or straight up shoot, we go and smuggle black market contraband. The truth of the matter: Any faction can do anything, it's just what you're willing to do. You can't log in and get instant gratification anymore, you've got to go and be the source.

I don't mean to butt in, but Harmony is actually older than UN| as a faction, it's been around for several years in fact, it's just been in a very weird place, being semi-officla but not official?

Not sure if anyone can change this.
Well not exactly true. At least not in my case. I've been the leader of the 5th since the very begining and still did not loose my compassion/intrest in leading it. Altough i can agree that there were times when i simply felt its too much and it drains me but who doesn't feel like that from time to time. And then i took some time off a week or a month and most of the time it always came with some RL thing and either way i wasn't able to be active. And i wasn't banned so far... hopefully this will stay that way since as far as i know i did not do anything for it. Hopefully the greens think the same.
