After some reading and even after being pulled aside by an admin... I have one question:
Does anybody have an issue with me renaming my character to [RCG]Winnipeg in honour of the late and well expired Royal Canadian Guard I tried putting together YEARS ago...
This would be an "unofficial" faction, but when the money comes, I would put in the official request thread. 500mil creds is not easy to come by when you've been innactive for almost 5 years! I can RP the faction until then... or just keep it silent... whatever you prefer...\
I don't want to keep spending 2mil creds to change my name so I'm asking before I do it again and it becoming a problem :mellow:
First, wrong place. While you're still unofficial, use the forum containing this subforum, this one is for prepared and ready requests. <shameless plug> Such as mine here. </shameless plug>
Second... it's been awhile. A lot has changed. I read the original thread just last week as luck would have it, and... remember when I said "a lot has changed"? Understatement of the year.
There's no issue with you using a tag that doesn't have a faction behind it... except...
RL countries no longer exist. "Canadian" no longer makes sense. There are systems named after pieces of Old Earth Canada, but "Canada" no longer exists. A ship called the LNS-Winnipeg would be acceptable, but a ship called the RCG-<anything> would not as the acronym stands right now.
Canadian themed and inspired? Totally fine. However, Canada no longer exists. It was destroyed along with the rest of Sol.
