It's not a stupid idea.
THe solution is rather simple.
Make winning by numbers permissible again.
Faction/group/co-op problem solved.
I'm lost on what you mean here.
How do you make wining by numbers permissible again?

http://www.dictionary.com/browse/permissible
allowed, sanctioned, lawful, legal, tolerated.
The problem i have is the low effort RP by many players. I recall that i got mocked just for trying to be my mentally insane rogue character. This clearly shows that people just want to annoy others for their self (poor) satisfaction and only want to pvp. Being this really wrong.

I know the definition of the word.
I don't know how winning by numbers isn't permissible at the moment.

I think he means that whenever you win through numbers, you end up having a [CENSORED]storm on the forums aimed at said faction (look at the current Auxesian feedback for example)

Exactly.
People make groups and faction to have strength in numbers.
Right now, making a group is just going to get you either yelled at, or you'll basically be told not to participate in fights and do loads of stuff you don't enjoy doing.

Well, i see that the problem in pvp is that most of the combat ships rely on cruisers and anything that is big enough to take a lot of damage.
Figthers are pretty much defined to fight eachother and avoid combat with gunships/boats and anything bigger than them, Bombers should only focus on bigger ships with all their heavy damage weapons, Gunships/boats are for hunting down fighters and bombers mostly, Cruisers seem to be a mix of bomber and gunboat, and then battleships are just the big ones who are meant to take all the hits and hitting back much harder.
Of course, a group of bombers and fighters armed with torpedoes can bring down a battleship themselves, but if that battleship has a gunboat as ally, the battleship has the battle on his favor.
It seems that pretty much ship combat revolves on that, one ship is effective for something, and unnefective for anything else. It kinda sucks. But it makes sense.

I think there's a vast different between something being permissible and being acceptable.
6 on 1 ganks might be tactically superior and the "right" thing to do defensively, but you really should ask yourself why you want to destroy someone so badly. People are going to judge you based on your actions and you can't change that.
You can't just do what you want and force people to be happy about it/want to play with you after. Something something having a cake and eating it.
1) You gank. You get ganked. People think you're a PVP-whore and don't like you.
2) You don't gank. You still get ganked occasionally. People more friendly overall/good karma.
It's up to you how you play and how you want to be received.

The issue here seems to be that if you get shot in pvp that therefore annoys you?
Im sorry... But you will have to get used to the fact that as a rogue character you WILL be targeted.

It taks tons of RP skills to roleplay insane character, especially if writing in all caps is involved. Most players, even RP-oriented, will likely consider such a character as troll or lolwut, and act according to their ID. In case of rogue, it's either flee or shoot most of the time.
Just my 2c to the analysis of the situation.

Yeah, that explains why some guy mocked me about how my RP was, i dont understand what they think this server is. I though the name of the character explained itself, but no, sadly people keep being "Hello you are going to die for my amusement".
