Title: Multi-factioning Rule. To be abolished?
Post by: Blake.H on 27-04-2009
This might be a bit out of the blue but why dont we abolish the silly multi-factioning rule?
I personally would like to RP as more than one faction on different characters. I dont see what the big deal is with it.
Ok, maby Being in Duty and Freedom is a bad idea. You will get bitched at in a firefight to swap to 'The loosing team'. That would be silly

But i would propose that...
  If you are in:
-Duty
-Freedom
  You can join:
-Military
-Ecologist
----------------------------------------

What are your ideas.
Do you Agree?
Do you Disagree?
Tell us why.

Honestly, I'm a bit too lazy, having a Duty, Loner, and Trader is enough for me. But I guess I give this +Support

Spreading yourself too thin just dilutes everything, resulting in less activity on all characters.

I agree with hockey, the reason we have the no multifactioning rule is to make sure you're comitted to your faction.

And ofc to stop meta-gameing.

Ya Multi Factioning could be bad because

Me as Freedom or something "ok guys were going to attack to the military checkpoint tommorow at 4 pm sharp"

Switches to Mili

"OK boys i heard a rumor that Freedom is going to attempt to attack our checkpoint BRING IN THE TANKS AND THE ROLFCOPTER!"

Next day Freedom walks towards checkpoint to be met by heavy Mili resistance and gets owned runs home to mommy and leaves zone forever the end :P

Multi-factioning is a bad idea. You would meta-game without even realize you meta-gamed. I have had it happen to me before on TnB and Melonbrew, don't let that shit start.

I agree with everyone who is against it. Its there to keep in factions TOGETHER and if you are in 8 factions? Where do you have time to play them all.

EX If there is a battle between Militant and Freedom, Who would blake choose to fight with, his mili, or his freedom?

People should be able to have an Ecologist and a Military? They are pretty much the same.

Lol. You shouldn't be Military if you think that.
Military shoot people.
Ecologist pay people to shoot mutants.
Military has crappy bases.
Ecologist have epic doomforts.
Military are active.
Ecologist are not.

Multi-factioning: Noun: Of or being in multiple major factions, ensuring that no newcomers ever get to join a faction because every faction is filled withthe same 20 people that have been on the server from the start: Effectively allows one person to clog up 13 factions with their membership.
