' Wrote:There are two factions in which I play a role of a leader. The first is the Volksfront , in which there are two more leaders , both of them are as experienced as I am and will , I'm sure , slap me if I do something idiotic. The Volksfront does not have indies which need controlling , we are working on that ( the indies part ) , as such your reply to my post and the faction I am a part of is meaningless. I believe that you have misunderstood what I meant in my post , I agree that I may not have made my point as clear as I should. Not the less , here is what I meant. If a faction has shown proper role play , has earned the trust of the community and has finally been given official faction status , something which takes a LONG time sometimes , as I have discovered for myself , then that faction surely deserves to have some authority over , say , a player who has just created his character and has no clue what he should do and what is expected of him to be doing. Official factions are for that , if you think that is pathetic , then by all means that is your opinion , but I think that that is just a small token of trust towards a player/s , who have sacrificed a lot of their time in hopes to improve server RP and add to the flavour of Discovery. Independats reap from the labour of official factions and all they ask in return is for the indies to follow server RP and the established faction RP.
The second faction in which I have a leadership position is the Order. Just so people don't get the wrong idea , my Order character is an "indie" , like some people will put it , but in truth there is nothing "indie" to it. Although I don't have the power which Swiss has , people still choose to follow my in game RP and respect my position and rank , for that I thank them. No one makes them follow my RP or my orders , it just seems that they trust me enough with that task. Again , if that is pathetic - your personal opinion.
There is a Volksfront? Also, my reply was generic and it still stands.
Does that mean an independent character which has existed without a sanction before a faction was created does not have to follow a faction's orders? You are operating on a first come, first served basis which constricts and already highly restricted RP environment. Eh.
Also, your small token of trust, can easily ruin another person's game without justification, so I hardly consider it small.
My independents have not reaped much from factions and I follow the server rules. That is all I should have to do. No less, no more.
Pathetic is justifying the meaning of a faction with independent control. Not what you are twisting my words to be.
