If I spent weeks writing a story about Dragonriding gnomes, winning literary prizes from dozens of nations, it still wouldn't belong here. Now, this person has obviously put the work in, and is a roleplayer but s/he would be better off roleplaying something that belongs in Freelancer.
As long as the BSG is welcome on the server, I can't see how we can disallow Cylons. If you're going to turn someone away for being un-Freelancerish, you've gotta turn them ALL away.

Can I have a few of the rocks in your head?
Phantoms. Grandfathered. Came from far away.
As Drake said, BSG. They were hated and shunned when they first came here. Now established.
I won't go the the Nomad place, although now it appears if you have the right connections, you can even be one of those bad boys, who once were verboten in these hallowed spaces.
Good Lord, Blunt. One of our beloved Admins has a Cylon character, and I expect to see a lot more of her.
Now.. since you've gotten on board the neophobe, "veteran", closed community, "we don't do it that way here" train with all your bag and baggage; I don't expect to shed any glowing warm light into your dark dank little shuttered compartment.
There are more than one non-FL factions on this server already. This one would balance the BSG, and as long as the RP is sound and consistant they deserve their chance, just like anyone else.
If we're seriously going to say no to any non-FL faction (and who's to say what's FL and what isn't? EVERYONE has their own ideas), we gotta can ALL non-FL stuff. That means nothing that's been done somewhere else before. That's way too restrictive and is the sort of thing that will kill this server.
OK, I'm new here, and I know my thoughts really don't (and shouldn't) hold much weight in-so-far-as how things should be done, but that's what I feel.
Edit: Drake, would that be the Something Positive comic strip?
i dont undersat diplomacy of the cylons. first words in faction status are All humans and Nomads are our enemies.and in diplomacy is that zoners rogues and some other faction are neutral. so are all humans enemies or only some factions? and when you are enemies of all humans,how can you dock on human base? and i not happy that this will be another faction on system we can attack all without warning.
Logical would be that cylons can dock on Robot planet (Primus), so they can start from there. Also i would like to add that i have seen 3 or 4 cylons at same time on server in one group, and was thinking it may come to this..
But when BSG starts to defend and kill outcasts, hackers and blood dragons, we are pvp whores, cap whoers and all else names, so u may give the chnce to cylon faction, if they Rp it well it could be good for all
So as couple of new factions started, u may give them chance to work on faction and RP relations before not to try it even....
