' Wrote:Hooray for generalizations! Yeah, a lot of them are like that, but this is like me saying that the Liberty Navy is just a bunch of capwhores - sure, it's true of a few individual independents, but many people in that role, both indie and faction, fly fighters and bombers or use their capitals responsibly.
What you just said is the same line of thinking that leads to people calling Bounty Hunters a bunch of cap-abusing PVP whores, or at least did so back in 4.84 - holding the sins of individuals against the entire group. We're better than that around here, aren't we?
Perhaps you mistook the intended meaning of my statement.
As someone who generally fights against such generalizations, I'm also kind of offended to have someone jumping to conclusions like that.
What I *meant*, is that *some* are like that.
There's weed in every crop, my friend, that being indies, unofficial factions, or official factions alike.
However, all official factions can be, I use this word with caution, complained against, called out to improve if their behavior does not measure up to what it should be.
However, *some* unofficial factions, and I stress that 'some', who behave well.. let's not say bad, but not good, can't be talked to, and even if they are, they can always just ignore you.
If say.. some official faction goes and hunts LFs with a battleship, people'd start forwarding complaints to their faction leaders and things could get better, but with *sigh* some unofficial ones, it's not always possible.
Now, did I say the word 'some' enough times to your satisfaction? :sleep:
