Anon - Glad to see you back again on the forums. Let's see - what do factions mean to me... Shaders, emblems, ships and now sparrows, ghosts and 390 legendary gear. Seriously - I too find myself more in-line with DO, but not in the same way that you do. I have trouble following a faction that wants nothing more than to install a Totalitarian government (NM) and I believe that there is always a non-aggressive solution to problems and not relying on always fighting (FWC)
