Dear Faction Admins: Faction Suggestions
Here are some suggestions I have. Cheers!
[*]2. A Patch List (AKA The Resource & Information Forum)
[*]3. More Polls about our Expectations
[*]4. A compare and contrast between Senate Power and Community Power. And how that can be a good thing again.
[*]5. Transparency?
[*]6. How Faction Rules affect us?
[*]...Long story short. IC prosecutions are so rare that you might never even see one the entire time you are a Faction member. Where art thy tribunals o' Republic? Why have our courts abandoned us?

Here are some suggestions I have. Cheers!
- 1. A Suggestion Box (AKA Soap Box Forum)
People in this Faction have suggestions and ideas they would like to publicly discuss. Public opinion is a powerful catalyst for change and transparency with the member base can be very a good thing. I would like to see a place to put these suggestions and discussions specifically.
[*]2. A Patch List (AKA The Resource & Information Forum)
- This Faction changes often. More often than I can possibly comprehend really. Some of my most personal missteps on this website have happened because the Faction changed so quickly, so drastically, and with such terrible transparency and written explanations; that I could not keep up. Becoming frustrated and angry very quickly. Thusly, I would like to see a publicly listed and pinned Patch List or a similar Admins Update Forum.
A Patch LIst is similar to a Admins Announcements Forum. It is a dedicated place to put all of the changes that the FA's have stamped and approved. It lists what happened, why it happened, and why they felt the change was necessary and good. It is not: This might be happening. It is: This happened. - Corvus' Weekly Updates are super helpful in a similar regard to this idea.
[*]3. More Polls about our Expectations
- As a member I have expectations about this Faction that do not align with StarWars Canon. I believe this is a player run custom group. Not an attempt to exemplify Movie-Coruscant. I think the FA's would benefit greatly if they polled the faction community more often for our expectations. These can be a great educational opportunity for everyone. Naturally, this initiative can be taken by FAs and members alike at any time.
[*]4. A compare and contrast between Senate Power and Community Power. And how that can be a good thing again.
- Change happens when the player base ask the FAs to do something, and they do it. Change can also happen when the Senate characters receive power from the community as well. This can be a positive thing. This has been a positive thing. Also yes. This can be a problematic thing. And yes. This has been a problematic thing. Let's talk again about how we can give real power to give our Senate characters and then let those characters have fun with it. Compare and contrast. Discuss and discuss alike.
[*]5. Transparency?
- Change happens when the player base asks the FAs to do something, and they do it. This process is not well understood. How do the FAs respond and reply to our suggestions? Do they have meetings? Do they PM each other? Is there a skype video chat were we can sit and watch them eat donuts all day? How do our FA's show transparency and trust during this process? How will our FAs communicate with us? Where do our suggestions stop and where does the real paperwork begin?
- Corvus' Weekly Updates are amazing in this regard. Thanks Corvus.
[*]6. How Faction Rules affect us?
- I have been a Pub from Day 1. Even so, most of this Faction's rules have never affected my Faction roleplays. Which is hilarious. Has anybody discussed this? Maybe we should, because...
I have never had a character prosecuted IC for breaking:
The Jedi Code - Republic Law (assumed or contractual)
- Military Rules of Engagement (assumed or contractual)
- A Galactic Charter (assumed or contractual)
- Engaging in a War Crime (etc.)
- My equipment
- My free Jedi starships
- The Senate Building itself
[*]...Long story short. IC prosecutions are so rare that you might never even see one the entire time you are a Faction member. Where art thy tribunals o' Republic? Why have our courts abandoned us?
