alot of ppl arent in clans, due to the fact as they can faction hop as much as they want to. Some ppl gets iritated due to faction hoping and so on.
So i wanted to know if its posible to make some cinda awarding system of ppl beeing in a clan. Like if the clan makes a totaly % of prestige, then each members gets like 2% of it or something like that.....or creds? like a bonus system...
but as this is also very easy to exploit maybe someone else got a bether idea on this?

What you ask for is called grouping, and I know their has been quite a bit of talk of bringing it back in 484.

If we can get it into the initial release of 1.484, we will. If we feel like we'd rather release it before that though, we will.
So when we say 1.484, we mean in the general version/sub-version of that release.

im not talkin about grouping at all...
Ok heres another way to put it.
I want a rewarding system for beeing in a clan. could make it time based. So if you are in a clan for 1 month u get 100 prestige. When u are there for 2 months you will get 200 prestige. then 4moth 400 pres...and so on...Like a bonus for beeing loyal to the clan.
With this more ppl will be in clans and may stop abit of the faction hoppers...

Grouping is the reward. If you're active, and play with your fleet, you'll gain a certain percentage of what they're gaining (as well as what they lose, so being in a good fleet has more merits than just inviting any old folk and newbies).
That's your loyalty. The more you play, the more prestige you get from your fellow fleet mate's actions.
But we won't be introducing a time-based reward system for fleets. Sorry.
And as much as you or I may dislike it, people are ALLOWED to play any side they want. It may seem a little un-realistic game-wise, but if they want to fly K'luth, and then fancy a change of mind and want to fly ICC - they're allowed to. The new grouping system is there to reward fleeted players, and to make unfleeted players want to join a fleet for the grouped rewards (Unfleeted players will NOT be getting group bonii).

<.< Am I the only one who sees the potential problems with fleet grouping?
I can see it already, faction's each with one clan, filled with people, people getting kicked out for sucking, better players congragating to a single faction to reap the rewards with everyone else in tow.
Fleet based rewards are nice, I just think they should be limited to more asthetic things rather than something like grouping.
