I've read every post here, and most of it was a waste of my time.
Enough talk, time for some action.
Cobra, I suggest you have your men create Junker characters, roleplay the faction to a T, completely deadlock Sigma 13 so that the Traders have to spread out around Sirius to make money, and then use the wide-ranging Junker ZOI to hunt them wherever they go.
You'll have the opportunity to prove your teammates' roleplay abilities, sportsmanship, and PvP abilities against the RM in Rheinland just one jump away, along with the BHG and Mercs who show up to try to reopen Sigma 13. You'll also be doing the server a major favor by forcing Traders to figure out where else they can make money instead of relying on Niobium and Diamonds.
The Junkers may not have the "best" ships in Sirius, but if your clan is as good as you claim, then you don't need the best ships in order to win, do you? Look at it as a different kind of challenge : to become one of the best clans in Discovery by roleplaying one of the "under-dogs" in the faction list.
Enough with this thread. It's time to let the photon cannons prove what words can't.
Good luck.

Thank you guys for the private messages of encouragement.
Bottom line is we're used to our threads being high-jacked. On void we are in a pretty solid position, but we are well aware of how much that means here. For 12 pages and 110 post all I've gotten out of this post is PLEASE DON'T SHOOT ME...because it seem the biggest interest is if a TR|AD is going to shoot me.
I've answered the baited, loaded and jacked up post for 2 days now. It was an effort to get to know you guys and for us to get some information without making a ripping. Well thank you for the experience. I'm sure the next new clan will do what we probably should have done.. lol... SNEAK IN!!...but obviously thats not our style.
Xoria That's an honorable direction but unfortunately not very tactical. We didn't get where we are by working against our selves. I'm sure the fellas will read this as i have made a list of posts actually worth reading and your damned sure on that list.
Brilliant Xoria. Cobra, you have taken enough of a verbal beating this day. Prove us all wrong and do exactly what Xoria is suggesting here. But as I said back on page 3, expect to be under extreme scrutiny by our admin team for a while.

ON MY WAY OUT OF RETIREMENT
LOL whats this prove this and prove that. Nothing in the process of obtaining a faction stated that we had to prove anything. Everything that we had to prove was proven on Void.
We are not walking onto this server feeling like we have to prove anything, because you may not get the desired result. Setting our clan up for failure as some of you are just waiting to say "I told ya so" is not an option. No we are going to do exactly what was requested of us we.. WE .. are going to chose the desired faction and submit it as all of you have. A request for anything else is unwarranted.
I believe that brings this overlong bashing to an end, eh? I don't know about anyone else, but I like being recognized as a good player. I'd like to meet some of the people around here that don't have egos the size of Manhattan.
I would still like to hear from these new people though, can you have them post in the welcome thread? It's easier to be angry at faceless people then ones you know.
To DBoy, people can change, especially if given several years.
EDIT for Cobras post: Yes we are asking for you to prove yourselves, just like all factions have to prove themselves. We've been getting a rash of badly made, PvP-whorish factions lately, and we're rather jumpy about it.

Actually, Cobra, it seems you have a lot to prove here, and its something that you can't prove on void.
We want you here, only if you can RP.
If you can singlehandedly kill the whole of the MK, that impresses me, a bit.
But, if you could produce a Snubnose, or a Veranda, or a Ghosts of the Past, or a In The Queen's Service, then we would be impressed.
Thats the secret.

Okay...Mate, that statement simply shows that you have nothing to bring to disco at all. Your arrogance is what brought this flamefest, not the people at disco.
We will expect you to prove yourselves. Frankly, I don't give a ounce about what you did in the Void. Want to know something interesting? Never even heard of the server.
If you want to be accepted at this server, learn some humility.
Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the land.
