I have had this idea for a new type of player Faction but not one that would reside with any specific NPC faction, it could a be a faction that would be open to anyone willing to join even new players to the server.
since all it members carrying the (CAF) tag would have civilian IDs. The purpose of this UnOfficial Faction would be to Defend the interests of new players who are setting foot in the server. So say those from Starfliers too newbies who are in traders would be defended, to Safe guard there interests against more experienced players namely pirates or terrorists who would attack them. Players upto level 40 in a fighter or upto level 60 in a trader with civi / trader ids would be defended. If called upon by navy or lawful factions who need assistance against onslaught from unlawful factions where the lawfuls are Outnumbered, then the CAF would come to there Aid at their own Discression! as the interests and safety of civilians are the primary objective of the CAF not defending a systems borders!
Newbies to the Server would be invited to join the CAF aswell as regular players, where they would recieve ongoing support and tutoring so they learn how discovery works and what is expected of them as new players in conjuction with server rules as well getting help to achieve their in game goals. As in what type of player do they want to evolve into for e.g. help becoming, understanding how to be a pirate or police officer..
Regular players who join the CAF would be encouraged to help defend civlians, since we are a Civilian Corporation we will only use Civilian Weaponry and Ships upto and including the Eagle VHF.
Being Civilians which means using only the Trader / Civilian ID a maximum level of 39 maybe reached and Carried by any CAF pilot hence No Capships or Bombers Whatsoever....
So this is all I have so far for an Idea, what do you think Honest opinions are welcomed?
please no Flaming...
N.B. The CAF would no way intend to replace the Navy or Police Factions or there said Rolls!, we would merely provide more assistance to Civilians / Civi Traders in trouble than anyone else
