They're active and brings some much needed love to Rheinland

I like them very much, very inclusive for indies - added random people into convoys, groups, helped out, gave advice even billions to the community.
And when I as a random unrelated indie asked them to go jump to Rheinland for a doomed cap raid against Nomads and [RM] they didn't waver and did it anyways even though an official event was still going on (and it almost cost them the damage to Atka I will add
We need more factions like this that include other people than just themselves and provide activity even if it means losing a buttload of money and getting into fights they can't win for the sake of fun of them and their opponents.
This faction should be official.
P.S. nay it HAS to be official, as I believe they will continue their trend and plan on opening a rewards board for indies too.
And I know people in their discord re-started the discussion about Corsair BC with action, and one guy even works on it.
After Val's and Pepe's raids and Groshyr's sieges this faction is the reasons why Corsairs came back from the dead and should be rewarded for it.

Normally I would prefer playing alone but raids/convoys they did or still do gives many Corsair activities and I myself joined lot of them, Majority were fun(not gonna lie enjoying, a fleet of Corsairs getting destroyed by Rhinelanders/Outcasts without loses is something else beyond masochism). BFC is the only player faction I ever did register because that reason. 2 weeks ago joined to the faction and still here enjoying playing.
RE: The Black Flag Corsairs, BFC| - Squad - 11-01-2020
After reviewing your activity and contributions over the past few months, we have decided to decline BFC|'s request for officialdom.
You may re-apply in one month's time.

May we ask for the reason of this decision?

The main comments against you receiving Officialdom were:
- numerous Sanctions
- Mixed feedback
- Activity mainly dependent on Events

I think I have talked about this with you enough, I still don't think those sanctions are legit, but you are the law. However, all of these sanctions, except one, were for me alone. I don't think blaming the entire faction for my actions is fair, but life's not fair, that's how it is.

There are 11 feedback posts in this thread. 7 of these posts are positive. Of the 4 negative posts, only 1, the one of @Dhomie42 can be considered somewhat constructive and reasonable. Others are merely spiteful comments of people who have a personal problem with me, with no useful content.

This is just not right. But it is easy for you to say this, since you have removed us from the tracker. BFC has been on the tracker for several months, about half a year I'd say. In that time, we have been very active, with peak times not being in the month of the Sigma Showdown event, as I think that is what you're referring to. Unless you are referring to events, raids or convoys which we organized at least once a week if possible, often even more than that. I believe it to be a great insult that BFC, a faction which probably sums up much over 30 days of activity in their time on the tracker, gets denied for a lack of activity, when IDF| has gained officialdom with 0 days and 0 hours. This faction is allready on life-support by the way, long before their fist quarterly activity check.
I'd like you to enlighten me on what you'd like to see from this faction. Do you want us to stop making raids and convoys and just log one by one in an unorganized manner? Do you want us to ignore the server events your team makes for the Corsairs, and focus on other things instead? Or do you simply want us to stop logging, as dead factions tend to get officialdom more often than factions which fight and interact with people.
I believe there are other reasons for the faction being denied, you have failed to change my mind about this. But I'd like you to try again.

The only thing that should prevent this faction from becoming official is sanctions they've got. Just in my PoV.
About activity thing, this faction had 8 days of activity in all(3 columns). Even if these were generated just in events, which I believe Corsairs were included just in ONE, then having 8 days of activity generated by raids and whatsoever speak for itself. Just to compare some of the latest new OFs have barely 3 days in quarter, while this one had 8 days in one month.

You asked for reasons why your Faction was denied Officialdom.
You had:
Yes = 0
Abstain = 3 (one of whom was one of your Members
No = 5
I pulled the salient points that were mentioned beside each vote. The main one was the amount of Sanctions.
Quote:4. The request will remain open for Three months, and the Faction's performance on the Server and Forums will be reviewed during this period. After this period, the status request will undergo a Dev/GM/Mod vote and the results will be posted in the request thread.
This means that everything the Faction does is under the microscope. When Violation Reports come in, it is seen as the Faction, not individuals. Most of the time, we have no idea who the Player behind the Ship is. We are not generally interested.
Quote:I believe there are other reasons for the faction being denied, you have failed to change my mind about this. But I'd like you to try again.
I have no idea why the individuals voted as they did, other than what I have already intimated. I am not here to try and change your mind, I am just informing you of the facts, as is.
If you want to believe that there is a conspiracy behind you failing, then that is your prerogative. I am sure that there is nothing that I can say that will change your mind.
