Instead of paving every evening with PvP events, how about an event where everyone picks a new indie character and just logs it, not grouping up. instantly and not using any other external form of communication like Discord, Skype or Teamspeak? An event with genuine encounters and nobody knows who is who. Doesn't necessarily have to end up inu PvP or RP. What will happen is up to the people.
You know, back to the roots if you feel stagnation.
And maybe if - attention highly hypothetical scenario - some people were not driving others players off the server, those aforementioned people could enjoy more diversity in their interactions? Maybe not.
Flying always non-popular factions (cuz of my skill level), I must share the same point as Corile. He didn't have a sandwich before starting a thread, but he's right imho. And I must add: ofc we are not popular with well-trained players. Mostly 3 reasons I can think of:
- we all know each other and they know who they can't count on. They trained a lot and we play for lolz
- half of our fleet uses TS to focus, half does what they think is clever
- leadership sucks (in compare to pro-pvp factions).
What to do?
- fly others more, have a rest from Sairs. I was astonished by GG- leadership we had 2 events ago (we rent a leader, hahaha).
- log more numbers and prey enemy will not switch to cruisers. They sometimes don't, so keep doing what Kaze said
