In my opinion the problem is not with the ID itself, it is the fact that 95% of the traders in disco are independent, that is not in anyway realistic, I would imagine (in my non-scientific opinion) that the proportion should be much closer to 75%affiliated 25% non-affiliated. As it is now, there is very little rp going on with traders because they are all independent, a huge portion of the factional rp is gone, because so few people want to use trader faction id's.
