Change your player faction details/government/description?

Ogilvey · Dec 28, 2018

As in the title, I am really wondering if any of those would be possible, at all?
I would like to make some changes to my own, old, in-game faction, because I no longer see the details how I used to and how I would like, such as the description(or backstory, the short text you can see when hovering and pointing at the star in galaxy map if a player faction has such a thing and is in control of the system.).

Nope. Once it's in, it's in.

CAN I REQUEST UPDATES TO MY SUBMISSION ONCE APPROVED AND ADDED TO ELITE?
No.

Ah, I couldn't find that myself.
Oh well, thanks for providing with an answer.

As Jmanis says, not any more. We did about 2 years ago, but that boat has long sailed sorry.

But those PMF that were setting sail back then mostly look like this now (or at least we can dream they do!)

Haha! It is true! We did change alot and put in our faction leader and flesh out our story.
This was in response to (michael brooks?) posting elite lore for us, as before that we had to guess what the superpower were like, pre powerplay.

Yeah... in a few galnet submissions/CGs-which-never-happened, I invented a few "Patrons" per lore about Imperial social hierarchy.

Is it possible to edit the information of a player faction that has not been approved or implemented. I clicked on this button in the Frontier.uk website that was supposed to take me to a form where I could submit a faction, instead it took me to a page that told me my faction had been submitted (that very day) and that it was pending. The faction was fully named and detailed and everything but I never entered any of the info it listed. So what I’m asking is can I edit this info before it gets implemented?

If any crucial info is missing you will probably get a reply that it was not accepted due to <insert reason> and that you would need to reapply. Don't think you can change anything after sending things in.

If it gets accepted however you will have to live with it as is, since changes will not be possible as mentioned in the earlier posts.
