Umm, this has the premise that player factions are a cornerstone in ED which is not true. I'd probably have never noticed them unless I did active research on the internet. I also want to point out that the only difference between standard factions and player factions is their origin but as a matter of fact, they are literally as important as any other faction.
You can’t say that out loud! They don’t want to hear that their faction is not more viable than every other faction.

Oh I’ve got screen grabs. And not doctored ones like 90s posts.
Yup, just an NPC faction that players got to name.
No more control over it than they have with NPC factions.
It can potentially make a difference when you wanna flip bgs. An npc faction should be easy enough, but a pmf may put up (a lot) more resistance.
That's just because some players will act against your effords. I could get a group of people to endorse an NPC faction and it'd behave exactly as a player faction in that altering it would be harder than a relatively unknown NPC faction but in reality both abide the same rules.
This whole conversation is starting to remind me of a situation I had to deal with about 15 years ago. I won’t say what, because nothing derails a thread faster than religion or politics, and this involved both, but 90’s has been using all the tactics the other side used: quote mining, ignoring uncomfortable facts, bringing up “facts” contrary to common experience, holding contradictory positions, and frequently declaring themselves the “winner.”
The forum I used to hone my arguments before having to do it in a situation that mattered even had a proponent who insisted on calling themselves a child.

Actually, any faction that has players that are willing to manipulate it via the BGS will change, irregardless of the source of the faction's name. The BGS is solely affected by player actions, so if no players work on its behalf, it is literally incapable of "resisting." The fact that it was named by the Stellar Forge, as opposed to a player, doesn't factor into it. About 50% of player-named factions don't even control their own system, while about 20% of the largest minor faction "empires" are stellar forge named or not.
This can happen even if there are other players who call the system home, if they're not interested in manipulating the BGS for fun and profit. Since many players are driven purely by credits or reputation, if BGS players know what they're doing, they can get those uninterested third parties to do a lot of the influence heavy lifting for them.

You monkeys. I havnt fabricated anything lol.
Everything I've said is true.
Every screen grab is legit. The only editing I've done is because the names.
I've always said full restriction or better percentages for open compared to the rest.
That's okay though. See you guys soon ��

Now that's what I call lateral thinking, but fundamentally doomed to fail.

What in the hell do you think colonia is?
Exactly. However community goals vs working against someone else in the BGS is two different things.
People are more interested in the community goal rather than flipping a system.

Nah, I unblocked you after I posted that so I could so you whine about me being in solo. Ive been talking to my buddies in discord about it. How it would trigger some of you guys if I did it. Then I just mentioned it here and ya'll lost your marbles.

Remember, Im the one pulling the strings. Not the other way around.
Good lord 90s, what the hell are you on? I've been reading up on these last couple of pages and you seem to be on a self-imploding rampage, more or less mindlessly attacking and insulting all you see? You're usually prone to being controversial but level-headed, but seem completely out of whack here...
How many days have you been awake? Take a nap, and just say no to drugs buddy.
Wheeeee!
Christ 90's, I'll admit, I wanted to get you on the run earlier in this thread but mate, seriously, stop now, watching you dig and twist and squirm here is getting a little uncomfortable. The problem with weaving as tangled a web as you have 90's is it becomes harder and harder to remember who you told porkies to, when and on what subject, honestly, from one human bloody being to another 90's, stop.
I agree. Live to fight another day 90s! We all love a nice slice of forum PvP, but you need to retreat and regroup buddy.

Haha, nah man.
Its true, I knew the guy would flip his lid. It literally took less than 2 minutes for him to post from one thread to another about me not being in open for our CG. Just wait until I stream it. More people than him is gonna go crazy about it. Its pretty funny.

Self imploding? I had to go into what I've learned in college about game creation. Its what I wanted to do before I got sick. We went through many courses of study about group behavior. Funneling content so the game is played properly and all that good stuff.
Some of these guys ended up literally attacking me over it. Instead of googling what I had to say. Everything I spoke about is very much real.
And I tried to go in depth for them to understand it. Some did, and some willingly didnt.
Thats on them. What are ya gonna do. Some people just troll here intentionally.
They know there is issues, but some dont. And some dont want changes at all. Because NONE of this effects and dont want any progression or PVP to mean anything because its not "the game they bought".
Fact is, this game is no where close to the game they bought. Its evolved into a multiplayer game. Its no longer just a single player game.
Like WoW, you start out with Personal Progression, then you join a group for multiplayer stuff and top tier raiding in the end.
No different here. Except PVP is involved vs other groups. And PVP it self has no meaning in Elite.
Im trying to tell them Fdev has been saying they will be giving PVP its meaning, They have outright said it. And there is only one way to do that. Limit the modes in one way or another. And they will, because that the only option. You cant allow objectives to be taken vs other people removing the need for PVP. ITs what PVP in any game is for.
Elites not special here.
Plus I talk some smack, im pretty good at it. It didnt start this way though. But they brought it on themselves. And when they finally find out im right.
Good lord, thats when we will see the implosions.
