The faction had to die. It's just too bad there won't be a lesson learned from it, I think no matter what a lot of Congress players will stubbornly insist that all of what happened was a direct result of "pew kids hating on a calm mature trading faction" or some similar fairy-talee.
I find it amusing that you think a faction had to die because an admin got involved in some RP. As one of only 3 people who know the whole story I can tell you that her involvement was minimal and wildly overblown. You also referenced a leak that told only a small part of the story and was leaked by a player who was trying to influence RP. If you don't know the whole story then don't get involved. This community managed to kill the Congress. There's no need to spit on their grave.
Disclaimer: I was not part of the Congress and have never even had a junker character. Yet some of the most fun I've had in disco has been RP with Congress members.
