Back near the end of 4.86, there was a technerf request thread available for official faction leaders to post in (which has since been invised or deleted, I dunno why). On the l'Ane infocard, it says that both the Gallic Brigands and the Unione Corse are its sole makers. So in that thread, I asked for the Corse to be able to get l'Anes at 100% core instead of the previous 90%
That's the only reason the tech cell exists. I think I even asked for it to be called the "Brigand/Corse Ship" cell, or something like that. Because it makes inRP sense, right? Calling it the "Gallic Generic Unlawful" and using that as an excuse to be able to get an SRP makes no inRP sense. Heck, it only makes ooRP sense if you know nothing about the lore.
"My GJ cousin gave it to me" is crap roleplay too. I don't mean to sound harsh, but that should not constitute sufficient roleplay for an SRP. Especially when you consider the following; (A) Gallic Junkers and Sirian Junkers really don't get along; (B) Given their hostile relations with one of the l'Ane's makes (Corse) and tense neutrality with the other (Brigands), the Gallic Junkers probably don't have too many l'Anes to spare, especially not for people they don't like. C) It's been so long since Gallic and Sirian Junkers split apart, that you'd be pretty lucky to have a third cousin among the other side
EDIT: As for the bit about two factions making the ship, I don't even think any official Gallic Brigand group would inRP support this either
As for the Alaska.Grey thing (which I didn't know about before this, and have since then researched), it was a wreck that got restored? A cool SRP would've had one of the Outcast factions (official preferably, but unofficial should be okay) roleplay the loss of the original ship. If you're going the extra mile to try to get a fully functioning ship that belongs to someone else, it should be well coordinated.
If we're going by wrecks or distant relations, does that mean a Kusari Naval Forces [KNF]* member could SRP a Legate, or maybe even a Typhoon? Sure! They don't even have to talk to [TBH] or SCRA| about that, just claim that for whatever reason their character is related to someone from over there or maybe that they found a wrecked ship in the Sigmas.
I know I'm not an Admin, but having spoken to a bunch of people, many (including some Admins) do believe that these SRPs have more holes than Swiss cheese. In addition to GrnRaptor pointing out Server Rule 1.7 being trampled on, it would seem that SRP Regulation 6 is also not being seriously considered.
I'd like to close this by ensuring you guys that there is no malice, jealousy, Richard Nixons, or whatever else here. We're just concerned that some of the roleplay - special roleplay, even - is really lacking. And this is a roleplay server. My apologies for the wall of text reply, but with luck more of you are understanding of our viewpoint now.

Teerin
*No offense directed towards the [KNF]. That faction has done a lot of great roleplay, and this was just an example
"You see what your knowledge tells you you're seeing. ... how, what you think the universe is, and how you react to that in everything you do, depends on what you know. And when that knowledge changes, for you, the universe changes. And that is as true for the whole of society as that is for the individual. We all are what we know, today. What we knew yesterday, was different; and so were we."
- James Burke, The Day the Universe Changed (1985)
