ADMIN NOTICE : OFFICIAL FACTION RIGHTS

[Eternal]

You say people are over-reacting because of what "might happen"? We are talking about things which have happened, and failed in the past. You are more than welcome to do what you want with "your" faction and "your" members, just leave the independents alone.

If not anything else , our join dates at least indicate that we both joined the community at ruffly the same time. Post count taken into consideration , I've been thru everything that has happened here from the time I joined. What are you talking about then ? I and many others want exact details and prove of what you are saying.

People should not feel inspired to improve their RP in order to control independents, but simply for the benefit of RP and the community. Your difference which you want establish will be a split in the server, not exactly something I want, but then again I do not know about you.

You want to feel trusted and important? Welcome to Earth. There are seven billion of us, most wanting exactly the same thing. There are over 9000 people in this community, again, most wanting the same thing. You fail to realise an independent's need to feel important. Oh wait, your answer to that is to join a faction and work your way, eventually gaining enough rank and respect to feel trusted and important? Unfortunately, some of us have a life outside FL, regardless of how difficult a concept that is for some people to realise. Hence, some cannot be in so many official factions. (Also, how hard do you think it is for an independent capital ship to gain respect on this server is? How about to gain trust and to be important? It is not a walk in the park.)
As said previously, the situation miraculously changes once the boot is on the other foot.
Right, then you should have no problems with independent, non-english speaking capital ships killing you or not following your orders right?

Yes , I want to feel like that. I enjoy having responsibilities when it comes to the community and yes , people should want that as well. Why not ? You are basically saying what I did , just using different words.If they wish to have said responsibilities and be leaders of factions , they are free to apply. No one has stopped them from doing so. Even if they want to remain independent , a word which only exists on the forums and cannot in any way be RP when in a military organization , you can get respect and feel important as well , I did that. I made my Order character a very long time ago and from that moment on I simply RP'ed. Everything else happened by itself. I don't expect people to always join official factions , I expect them to do what everyone should do - RP. I don't play 24/7 , never have , mostly 30min / 1h is enough

Hard ? It's not harder then doing the same in a fighter. How do you think I and many other people did it ? Speaking just for myself here - I traded for 3-4 days to get the money , then went to Tripoly and bought my Osiris. The moment I did that I RP'ed a bit and went to Minor , one day later I met Swiss on his Bs| and we RP'ed. He seemed to like it and the same goes 1 year or so latter. I wrote a story on the forums , but that was only because I wanted , no one made me.

So honestly , I don't see your point. Sounds like you are shooting in the dark.
