Would you like to see an Unofficial Faction sub forum - Tenacity - 05-24-2009
Yes, I would, but it wont happen. After realizing that they've taken all meaning away from official factions, the admins have to find -some- way to justify the 500 million payments.

More or less what Tenacity said. Never happening, but I'd like to see it.
It'd even benefit the general populace, making it easier to find out who runs the unofficial factions in case we have an issue with them.

sounds like a great idea, but most likely wont happen.

At this point, the only 'power' that official factions have left - the only thing they get for paying that 500 million - is the right to post anything about their faction on these forums. Admins have taken away everything else - the ability to restrict people from their guard systems, the ability to attack indy players who are making the affiliation as a whole look bad, so on and so forth.
The admins realize this, and they realize they're ripping people off and really giving nothing in return, so they've resorted to removing even the most basic rights from unofficial factions to balance things out - even rights available to people who arent even in a faction.
It's the admin's fault this whole mess came up in the first place, they fully deserve the flak they're catching from players trying to set up or run unofficial factions lately.

Hey look over here at me.
We don't need an unofficial factions forum because all of this can be handled in PMs though this thread. Who were those guys tagged BTA what what do they do? Oh, look, them and their leader is in there. I can talk to him if I have any complaints, want to join, or want to give him feedback on his faction.
Oh, look, I can take a look at who the RSS are, How neat, they're Rheinlanders. They submit to the RM and cooperate with RNC? Awesome. Maybe I can talk to this guy if I have any problems.
What exactly is the problem with posting stuff there? I really don't see anything wrong with the system in place where people can work on becoming official by posting in that thread and receiving feedback that way. I mean, the search function works, people, and if I search RSS or BTA, that thread will come up....

Posting general info in there is fine, but it does not let unofficial factions create a fully descriptive post like we see for official factions. Take a look at my thread here as an example:

I've put an entire background and info section in that post, along with some imagery. That tells you a hell of a lot more than a one line "CEC - Independent Miner's Guild - Leady by Tenacity" piece of crap that they'd post in the unofficial factions thread.
The only thing that the admins are achieving with this behavior lately is killing off a huge part of the disco community. I'm sorry, but I'm not shovelling over half a billion credits so they can drop it in a black hole and feel good about themselves being complete jerks.

Both topics on the same subject made by the same guy are now merged

Have you looked in there, my good sir? The BTA and RSS have posted their entire faction status in there. There is nothing wrong with posting your thread in the Unofficial Factions thread. In fact, it was like it was created for that.
Also, I do believe your vehemency is stemming from some other type of vendetta against the administrators. They do their best, and, to be honest, I can understand any frustration they have with the server as it is. Take a walk, says the Bacon.
EDIT: Or since it's late, take a nap.

Can we please keep the rampant sarcasm and taunting down. Baconsoda and Tenancity neutral coners please.
While yes there is a thread wading through it can be a pain. A forum with a topic for each faction would allow space for critiques and comments to be made for each idea. There would be no recruiting, just the post with the full write up for all to peruse and look at. I think it would be a big help for everyone, even the Admins could find it useful.
PS: Thanks for the merg Marburg
