Most active hours you play in from 02:00 to 07:00 SMT
I'd like to raise the issue that your faction is spending more time supplying bases in PR and Iverness as well as jumping for Cardamine, rather than being actual Junkers, you know, debris salvagers, smugglers and shady people in general. Half of the times I saw your members, they failed to respond to verbal roleplay, most likely due to being AFK-cruise-trading.
While the time you most play in can be due to timezones, your members' idea that faction is very beneficial for server activity is far fetched.
Last time I brought these issues I was kindly asked to show evidence, though I did not as it was mere observations for the last year. Now, I bring you statistics obtained via proper means.
I hope something good might come out of this feedback.
so much no sense
so much oorp hate to junkers
so much hate to those who succeed in making big clans
im sure opinions like that is one of real reasons why some devs and admins started to get bored because someone is crying all the time about nerfing the junkers so they nerf it ....

When those bases were built in 4.86, there was BA for sale in PR. The supplying was easy. Now, RA is further away to get, so it takes more time to supply them. Circumstances were changed; bases won't be destroyed due to this, a lot of work hours and cash were invested in them so far. We tried to ask for a solution but were turned down so far.
Unfortunately the bases take a little longer to have supply now. But there is nothing wrong with supplying bases as a faction.
At the same time we should not get mad at some opinions thrown out. Snak3 i bet just means he wants us to rp more with others. Sure. We can do that. Or are actually doing that.
Before people jump to conclusions, Snak3 is just trying to point out how you guys need to spend your faction activity much more productively. It's not a personal attack that would warrant this thread getting locked, like how you guys perceive feedback normally.
I would like to raise another issue, of some of your members being overly biased and protective of your factions image to such extent that they think that every feedback that isn't praising, is trying to destroy Congress and thus they start their personal attacks.
Actually, I didn't mind Snak3's post. (Weird as that sounds coming from me but maybe I've mellowed a bit in two years gone).
So, tonight did a couple RA runs, did some scrap mining during which I got a Google video call from my brother in Afghanistan. Instead of F1ing in the field, since there were other ships around I kept mining albeit slowly, did my video call and still managed to RP some with an indy junker in the field with me.
After some mining runs I had some good RP with a member of the TSA faction (a group that's new to me on the server).
Sorry, no smuggling tonight but all in all I'd call it good.
Well, ganking is fine as far as I am concerned. I was just 3v1'ed by your members. But what is not cool is, logging a Blood Dragon Serenity, and jumping into the fight in Pennysylvania, where I was already fighting 2 of your snubs. What is even more crappy is, botfeeding from the Dragon transport. Not that I managed to take down both of your snubs, but taking OORP measures like logging a BD transport and jumping into the fight which is happening in Pennysylvania is utterly crap. Please, this is the second or third time I have met Congress in game, where they have spoken up...and it is already getting a lot worse.
EDIT: Oh, and a 4th guy (another indy from your side) was ready to jump in too. Just noticed that from the system chatlog. ._.

I think I heard about a similar tactic used in other factions.
But yea overpowering when you know you got a chance is no good... Though you said right after that you killed both of them, so what's up?
