Indeed this is the real deal and the problem of this topic in one sentence- people have different views on the situation. The good thing is that the rules allow both so everyone could be happy. Also the whole bunch of you forgets that in this situation even if the official player in question was the faction leader himself he have no right to request FR5 for Rambo since he was acting in RP and in canon. Even if they try to request one the admins would deny it.

It depends really, I can assure you that the half of the faction leaders does not care about fair fights. When I was faction leader I didn't liked better players slaughtering new players that are around since 1 month or so- small or new factions cannot afford to be selective or restrictive with their players, not everyone have such huge playerbase like Liberty Navy.
I side with Rambo here- for me the fair fight is one where the sides are even not numerically but in skills.
Shortly summarized it is matter of Point of View, the two sides have no chance to agree with each other at anything since both PoVs are totally different.
