Basically what I'm suggesting here is something like the Admiral and Newbie Servers, where the factions were evened out...
I'm sure this can be done in the Metaverse, though Clan would have to be off...
if you agree/disagree post here, try not to make it too negative I don't wanna be starting a flame war

I'm not just being negative for the sake of being negative, but the last few times this was tried there was an initial interest and then it just sat empty.

I say no.
Restricting the simple choice of what race someone wants to be is silly, if people want a fairgame they'll change to another faction.

No one, then. That's like someone saying "If I want to make getting to the highest possible point even harder, I'll make it harder willingly."
If you do not see how utterly retarded that is.. then you probably play Darkspace.

I would be totally down with an Admiral server back....as long as they don't crash and reset every time it hits a map with all requirements for a dread...
Tho, as Az has stated, leave the MV alone.

Thats what I specifically responded to. I did read your post. The way it seems worded to me, you propose the same type setup in MV as we had in Ad/newb servers.
And wth did you learn to count? lol

Admiral server would fix this, but the staff are leaning towards MV only so, that is the only reason why I suggested it..
Az, not to be saying anything bad but, your clan is overpowered and overpopulated, I am sure this is why you disagree, I wouldn't want to lose any advantages either tbqh

pardon me, but we worked hard to recommission Wolf after the last version release. When we returned, there were daily crying posts FROM KLUTH that the faction was unworkable, cloak unusable, ships too weak, etc. But everyone on Wolf is a veteran from days gone by. We turned the faction around, IMHO. I'm not saying "I", I'm saying "WE". Now the posts are 180 degrees from what they were when I came back just 4-5 months ago.
And, on top of that we have even tried to clue the humans in to how to fight us. When we (virtually the same clan) were active two years ago, we weren't "overpowered", because the humans knew how to fly their ships and how to fight. Now the few old human faction vets that are around pretty much sit in the lobby, and the players who are active are mostly noobs who never learned how to fight a real kluth player.
As far as being overpopulated, we have NEVER had more than 18 wolves. We never will. That is our cap. Always has been. We are not a 90 man fleet like FS. We are not a 4 man operation either. Furthermore, I'd like to point out that at present we have brought some decent cashflow back into the game for Faustus, which helps to pay for the OVERPOPULATED lobby that everyone else seems to enjoy so much.
And on behaf of my fleet, I'd like to thank you for the credit you so willing give us for having turned our faction around. Now if only ICC would see a resurgance of Raven, or UGTO could see a return of GTN, maybe the game would change.
But the response to the current situation you suggest is to make fleets obsolete out of your own jealousy, fear, or inability to adapt. And I simply will not agree that that would benefit the game in any way. How about listening to us for once? We offer plenty of help with tactics to anyone who wants it. But it seems easier to come to forums with daydreams of nerfing a whole faction for the sake of one fleet. I just can't understand that avenue of thought.
