Has the 500 million credit fee for Official Faction Requests been passed to an Admin?
Anyways, official factions should only have one tag with varying subtags, not entirely different tags to go with - also, wouldn't 'OSC' be shorter? That is also the abbreviation stated in NPC vessel callsigns.
' Wrote:Allowed ships - All transports, all house & civilian fighters*.
Allowed weapons - All house weapons, civilian, codename & nomad if you find some.
And... all House weapons and ships?! No, that won't fly, honestly. The military and police aren't just giving away their technology to an independent tourist shipping faction.
Edit: also, your diplomacy seems... a little too unspecific. There's no 'Neutral' section, just a 'Friendly' section with any Libertonian in it and a generic 'Criminals are hostile'-section. You should at least state those that you hate/love the most (e.g. Gaians, Outcasts).
On another note: what's your faction history? Your goals, your hopes? What do you want to achieve in Sirius? Are you just a side branch of OSC or the entire things?
These are just the first few questions that come to mind when I hear something about an official OSC faction.
Don't get me wrong, I'd love to finally see some official OSCs fly around, but the faction has a lot of potential, aside from the generic passenger hauling in Luxury Liners.
I'd love to see you guys in ATs with Eagle escorts, hosting small events with Lux Liners next to lonely planets in lonely systems (we have many of those, after all) - but not as just another trading faction.

Seems a little too much like a trader faction. The idea of synth weed and artifacts being moved around on them is cool, but allowed by who? It's still smuggling right?
It should have more of an emphasis on liners and passenger transport, rather than just general powertrading.
Maybe that is the PanGalactic in me talking.
Orbital Spa & Cruise - Dab - 02-25-2009
I tend to agree with Ben on the Artifacts. Synth Weed I'd say is alright. As far as I know, its not actually contraband. Made by Cryer after all. Its only OC and their allies that dislike Synth Mari. Sleipnir is right on the description. Goals, history, achievements, etc. It looks like you grabbed some lines straight from the OS&C infocard and plopped it in here.. Needs a bit more work.
Also, why is your headquarters on Manhatten? Planet Curacao is the OS&C's real headquarters, shouldn't yours be as well?
Faction policies?
List of members/roster?
Ranking structure (optional for OS&C I guess)
Orbital Spa & Cruise - ErikssonJeny - 02-25-2009
Well as the president of this corporation i approve any transaction of 100 units of Marihuana & 50 units of Artifacts & i believe if they are used in the right purpose, as noted, it isn't illegal.
And regarding the fighters - when they putted them on sale they made the available to all people.
Regarding the diplomacy - its a Trading Corporation so it has default standings - Hostile=Pirates, Friendly=Police
Oh and the tag...OSAC just has a better sound..
But i would like that our Luxury Liners have different tags to be more easily ID-ed..

' Wrote:Well as the president of this corporation i approve any transaction of 100 units of Marihuana & 50 units of Artifacts & i believe if they are used in the right purpose, as noted, it isn't illegal.For the first, he meant in terms of military/police having a ban on Artifacts.. They're contraband. So they will require all your liners to drop them.
And regarding the fighters - when they putted them on sale they made the available to all people.
The second is simply untrue.. You need permission before you get them. What you said wasn't an RP reason in the least.
Orbital Spa & Cruise - ErikssonJeny - 02-25-2009
Well maybe your right but should i ask the authorities for permission that the faction can do this?
Orbital Spa & Cruise - deaxy - 02-25-2009
Agree with the above...
About the ships : i think when we are talking about traders, use whatever you like, but the fighters...with the fighters you should stick to one factions ships....
And nomad guns? umm...ok...really don't think that putting nomad weaponry on a cruise liner would be ok
EDIT
Again about the ships.... you cant buy what ever you like..... There is a reason this is a RP server you know....

' Wrote:And regarding the fighters - when they putted them on sale they made the available to all people.In Roleplay, the police and military crafts are not sold to any outsider.
Ingame mechanics make them available to anybody who can dock the station, but that does certainly not mean you can just go, buy and fly it.
I'd frown upon a ship a lot if I saw it as an OSC tagged and IDed Liberator, Avenger, Hussar, Templar, Chimaera, Phantom or Wrath. House ships are for the respective government representatives not for just any corporation out there. Do you see Microsoft officials cross the seas with US Navy vessels? No, they use yachts.
Also, OSC may have its origins in Liberty, but, unlike Ageira and the like, it is not a pure Liberty corporation - as such, I'd not even like to see you in Liberty House ships (except the Mammoth, for supplies).
Orbital Spa & Cruise - farmerman - 02-25-2009
Shouldn't the Hogosha and Corsairs be in their own, specific diplomacy section due to the relationships between them and OSC? Plus Gaians should be very hostile.
That said, I don't think artifacts make sense to be carried. Given the current Hawaii situation, I very much doubt the Corsairs would be amenable to that.
And then shouldn't only certain goods be transported?
