to mention an already stated point.....
indies would still just make their own unofficial factions, just to still do what they want with 0 oversight.
It seems, to me at least, disco's in trouble either way. if you restrict indies, a fair few people would leave the server. if official factions die out, people would leave the server.
i get the feeling a lot of the issues plaguing disco now could have been prevented from happening by previous dev and/or admin teams
I see peoples who:
1) are complaining about not having one member and only one listed with 1h activity on the tracker due to a bug..
Really?What will that change?In some cases mentioned above will not even match the 5 active members and even if it did..that 1 week logged in a month per faction it will still be enough of a reason to disband all of official factions..
*if someone mentioned holidays as an excuse=> since most of our player base are kids/teenagers ,they have a lot more time than they did when they were at school..
2)think that limiting ships for indies are the answer
well..how did that worked out for your official time?
^ we all see the difference players logs more indies characters then tagged one(most of cases a player logs in more time than his entire faction per month)
3) " There has to be a way to incentive pirates to go official. "
sure there is..expanding their Zone of Influence ,not many that do so,but still..there's something for other faction leaders to think about
People want to believe that God has a plan for them.
They don't wanna believe that anyone else does..
Paying people in factions by the hour (Note: some factions (IMG|) probably dont need this). Indies could still play, but people would be incentivised to play tagged ships.
Look, probably a bad idea, but it is an idea.
Im penniless, rotten in a fight, and have authority issues, but im back!
