How does one start a faction?

[Fletcher]

In regards to the Leeds Militia question thread I started: Here (in a Eric Cartman accent), how does one go about starting a faction?

I realize I need a background draft, logical RP on all fronts, and a reason to be there. This, I believe I can shell up with the assistance of others.

Now recruitment? I am a procrastinating and sometimes forgetful person, and a disorganised one at times, only two of my five events I've ever done have turned into 'win'. Take the recent Manhattan Massacre, and that Starflier Battle Royal last year as examples.

And for those in the factions I have been with, you know I am not the best faction sort of person, this goes to the IMG, LWB, APM and LPI, and the Order, even though you never reply to my mail... :rtfm: I curse thee! Anyway, I digress.

How does one really start an organized group of players into a sub-faction that is accepted by not only the official factions, but the general community as a whole?
