I suppose you have to really (virtually-speaking, if that makes *any* sense) mingle with their shadowy little personas in order to decide. I want to know what all this underground stuff is about but then it obviously would defeat the secretive intent. Again, though, this totally blows my mind....I had no idea that so many factions existed and how much they invested (paying for people's accounts; there is some craziness). I had no clue regarding the extent of virtual political mobilization. I've thought in terms of guilds and things like that, but TSO is so much more of a community rather than action-oriented game that the political factors seem rather akin to what happens in a real world model (importantly, perhaps, lacking any sort of real executive, legislative, or judicial content that I can discern; I suppose the game form will only allow for this sort of banning together). Very interesting stuff here; my verdict is still out on whether this is good or bad, no matter how inevitable it may be.....thanks for (more) illumination on this front.
