ADMIN NOTICE : OFFICIAL FACTION RIGHTS

[bluntpencil2001]

The rights don't seem terribly easy to abuse, and with an addendum or two, might be just right.

A suggestion: Making the battleship licensing requests as a possible way around a leader's permission, in case, for some reason, an independent and a leader of a faction in the future may not get on. However, the special RP requests may currently offer such a mechanism.

Also:

Free Cap 8 is unnecessary. Instead, I would possibly offer smaller rewards for time and effort spent in organising community events of high quality. Be it a fleet battle, unusual trade convoy, blockade, concert or circus. Slight off-topic, but this should be available to anyone, instead of factions, and available more than once.

Rewards need not be huge. Marburg's rock band idea was good, even if it only had two entries. Perhaps some in-game events, with some modest (or perhaps larger) rewards might be good.

They need not be of a competitive nature either. Rewarding people for effort instead of 'winning' is just as good.
