Ok .... This Does not Mean that any progress is happening on my push for us to be able to craft GCW faction items..
But I want to know this..
Please answer Yes or No.. and limit feedback on this ( at this time..please)
Say crafting these were implemented in this fashion..
If we were allowed to craft faction Items.. but you would have to 1) Be alligned to that faction and 2) while crafting this particular item You would get a TEF... (thus attackable)
1) would you accept this form of being able to craft GCW items? No
2) would you enjoy this level of risk of being involved with supplying your faction with Faction equipment ? No
3) would you feel that you were being forced into PvP? No
Ok please answer 1 2 and 3 with a simple yes or no.. If you want to say more..please keep it to one or two sentences and do it after your answer to 1 2 and 3..
again .. this is 100% me looking for this information I dont want to make anyone think I was asked to do this from the devs..
thanks..

If we got a TEF for crafting, How would that put us into the GCW? Seems like a waste of code to me. When I craft I do it out of my house in the middle of my city. Not sure about the rest of you. But not many overts come through my town at any given time. There really is no risk. Therefore, why? Easily countered....clone. Not like I care if my 13 metric tons of ore that I carry around with me decays, or how bout that CDEF pistol I carry around because...well, I dont know why I carry that thing.
Bad Idea. Lets keep the programmers doing things that are productive(OMU's anyone?)
Although .. this doesnt address the need for the "other side" to be able to disrupt the supply line.. this is an interesting concept..

A TEFis combat related. A better solution would be the creation of CF (crafting faction). You must declare yourself to one faction or another as a crafter, where you are given some level 1 faction schematics. As you create more faction items you get CF, you can then trade in that CF for higher Faction Crafter rank (similar to faction rank). The whole system would parallel the combat faction system but points are gained thru creating faction items as well as their use.

Althogh something would need to be done to limit it a little I don't belive TEF is the answer, I'm sure someone have probably said it before in the thread but if your playing a crafting charater at the time then your there to craft & not to PvP. I for one have two characters & my crafting character is exactly that, a crafting character. Say I was crafting in the back of my shop as I have just sold out& want to put one or two of the items on & I don't notice an overt Imp walk in to my shop I'm nothing but free faction points as far as that person in concerned. If I wanted to PvP at the timeI would be using my other character.
Thats my opinion on it anyway. (Sorry if you did start the thread for discusing it in but I couldn't see it off hand & as it's nearly 3am in the morning I felt a couple of quick looks for it would do ^_^ )
