My 2 cents worth...
1. Faction chat, yes there is a lot of noise too much. The one thing that gets me annoyed is these one sided conversations that I often see. Where one person is probably talking on clan chat and the other on faction channel. Doesn't it make sense to use the same channel as the other person?
2. Terra is Pluto+Uranus+Saturn. That means we have 3 different playing styles in Fallen Angels coming together. Can't we all sit back, and take this in, instead of inposing order on everyone? All of us have to learn who is who in Fallen Angels? Doing this will make FA stronger, but these sort of threads wont.
