What type of faction do you think is best, lots of member with lots of power or an op private faction?
I think if you owner your land correctly and get the right members in your fac, A fac with lots of members and lots of power would be better. Just an opinion.
it's all about what your looking at doing with your faction, with a big faction with a lot of members, everyone is gonna complain that there is no fhome, and trust me that gets annoying, but then again, the more members the bigger the base you can have and the more claims you can use but you can also do /f owner your land so default members cannot build and whatnot. Although, if you have a private faction, everyone will be trusted and you shouldn't need an fhome but, having a small private faction, your claims will have to be closely watched, so really it's what your looking for and what you can handle, I personally go half and half and use some alts if your going for the ''only trusted members'' faction
If you have a big enough faction and a small number of members, there is a possibility that if a couple of them lose some power, you may be raided very easily. On the other hand, a large number of members means more chance for betrayal. This is why factions is so interesting.
If you're not sure... Its simple, don't reply. I'm sticking with small OP factions. Big factions can become too much hassle. EzPz is a small faction and we have never been overclaimed.
I agree with Cynders. Me, Tom, bevster, sonny, astenp and the rest of EzPz all have skype and always in contact with each other. All our bases are f ownered and hidden. The only person that ever gets low power is me. Purge does hold a lot of skill. But since they "broke apart" my luck goes to my own faction. We had a war yesterday, everyone in it was in one big skype call and because of our communication we won the war against GreenTiger, RedTiger and both Parthicas. But as one of the major commanders of the original Volga, I must give a 2 sided argument. Big factions may be easy to raid, too much "hassle" but its good leadership practise and, if you train your members enough. You could actually bring up a new reign of good pvpers, all thanks to you. Lets look at the old volga, Cas wasn't online on the server much, but still did a great job keeping it together and we hardly ever got raided. We only got raided once to which we had to 5v2 because they "sneak attacked" us. Anyways, I hold a two sided argument. I wont change this.
Thanks that really means a lot, especially to me as I have been with this faction for a long time since I made cobblestone bases. None of the original members still play (scourpius, weirdo_noob and Ben_N2004) but I have had a great experience on MineTime and won't be leaving any time soon.
Definitely a Private OP faction. Lots of members mean nothing at all. Last reset, I made a private faction with just my alt and I. I would always check my power before I logged off for the night. If I wasn't on perfect power, I would stay on until it's perfect. I had a 9 claim base, and 20 max power in my faction. I had this faction for about 2 months before I merged with one of my friends, and in that time I had gained 5 dubs of P4, and a dub of sharp 5's.
Make a really big faction and set home at all of the members' bases, then raid the bases and kick everyone but your moderators <3
Actually the best type of faction is with one or two people as mod that you can really trust, then a bunch of ants/power slaves that give prestige to your faction
