But surely if factions had enhanced abilities to create activity, to draw interest, it would stem that problem...? It'd be the same way Guild/Clan events work across various MMOs.

Correction, every OF except non-House military is entitled to something like a Megalodon. That's my gripe: blocking content (for the sake of blocking content). It doesn't motivate people or keep things fresh. There are a plethora of reasons why it was realistic and fair at the time, but I won't go into detail on that otherwise it'll derail the discussion. Conclusively: factions should have the freedom to create and roleplay, and outright preventing them from doing that is not constructive to server activity.
