I won't partake of idle speculation.

Is someone else clamoring for the Molly or VPS spot?

Nothings stopping people from making an unofficial faction, which if they can do if they are really interested in playing as those characters, not just having the faction status.

I actually doubt there are enough Molly players in all to hold a steady official faction. When mining died and the miners left, so did the Molly players. Mining's back, but it still hasn't recovered.

And yet it counts towards activity time. That's why it's sad that people do it to keep official status.

Where the brand™ is more important than quality to those.

Is there any particular official faction doing it?

This thread summoned chaos in my mind.

1) Remove Gallia - the best solution! Everyone's happy, there're no problems.

2) Admins don't have to do anything to keep official factions up. If official factions can't exist, they won't exist, and no need to beg admins for anything. It's not their fault, and they can't influence this largely (since Gallia needs trade the most importantly). Devs should release 4.86 faster (I know, this statement bores almost everyone), so official factions will have a reason to exist and be motivated to exist.

Yes. I myself tried contacting ships in their owned systems with no luck, while it been online for no less than 5 hours in that system. Alone in the system. And that faction was under the time limit for long long time.

EDIT: ^about camping afk.

About Conn:
Yes. A faction that was near the warning but got more than 20 hours instantly from 1/2 players. And I myself fought one of those "most active" players.

Well wouldn't there be a way to code it so anyone who sits in the same spot without moving for half an hour gets kicked? Kinda like base idling code, but in space and made so it only kicks if you don't move. I don't know if this is possible since I know nothing about coding, but it could be worth a shot.

If theyr not too busy, Id appreciate an admin answer about molly shared tech permissions - I dont see why the rogues would control the bargies ect manufactored and sold on molly bases, now that theres no council, so are they open use to white cells as long as you buy from the molly base?

They become open use only when there is no official faction at all. So, I think at least, the shipline is controlled by the Rogues now. Guns should be open use, tho..
