i understand that but would you expect a rebel recruiter to accept you into the rebellian with -5000 FP then says you need to improve you faction standing when you try to do anything like go overt, request personal support, etc.
They'd tell you to go away and improve faction standing. Thats not what the rebel pilot trainer does
Yeah. The recruiter should tell you to take a hike, scum. Scruffy-lookin' nerf-herder. I can't believe I just talked to you. Lick my boots clean...
Somethin' like that.

Gaahh!! Hijack!!!
C'mon. You'd have to prove yourself first. 5200 FP is not hard to get, even for the casual gamer."
God this guy is everywhere.. He's like the king dumbfounded statements.. Ok, here's a question Genius, what about Darth Vader? I wonder how many
poor rebels he killed before being redeemed in ROTJ. The point here is that this is just another blatent time sink. If you would pull your nose
out of the dev's fore-end contact for a few minutes, you'd see the obvious.... *sigh*

You read only what you want, and read into it what you want to see. Read it again with an open mind, and maybe you'll see what I'm saying, doofus.
In fact, read my other posts on this very same thread!! You're the one that is widely known and notorious for dumfounded statements, and I think our ratings prove it.

Maybe you should have ideas instead of complaining about it.

Honestly your posts make no sense, come up with a reason why they game should be changed and maybe we will have an open mind instead of just saying

I'll say it again for those who can't scroll up:
That I agree with. I don't think ones with -5000 rebel should be allowed to join the rebellion on any level, ground or sky.
Also, I think it should be made more clear that, in the Privateer profession, RSF is imperial-aligned and CorSec is rebel-aligned. Not many know that.
That being said, if you want to join the rebellion in the sky with -5000 FP, you're just going to have to prove to the Alliance that you are going to be faithful.
Darth Vader switched back and was accepted readily. Yep, sure was. He was once a jedi, and after being brutally tortured, switched to the Dark Side. Then, after watching his son about to go through the same thing, had his heart touched, reawakening the light side in him. Extenuating circumstance.
Incom switched and had much to offer the Rebellion. Simply offering what they had to the extreme benefit, in fact, totally changing the tides in the Galactic Civil War was proof enough of their allegiance.
You and I are Tom, D!ck, and Harry's as far as any faction is concerned, so we won't have it as easy as they did to prove ourselves.
Oh noes!!!!1 i h4v 2 mak3 choic3z that h4v c0ns3quencez!!!! wut kind ov L4M3 gamez duz that???????

I was able to get to positive rebel faction within four days, and I'm not very good at grinding. This was about two to three hours a day, doing the pirate missions. You might need a friend to get the higher level missions, but I think that they were giving about 30FP per (plus the NPCs). Doesn't take that long.
If you are on Bria and need help converting your faction, send me a tell.

Thanks devs, what idiot came up with the idea of needing to improve faction standing for rebelpilot? i drop imp pilot, leave the empire, im now neutral. sign up with the rebel trainer on tatooine, receive my starter ship and first mission. breeze through the mission (i like how the z-95doesnt fire in the middle of the targetting reticle.some more evidence that the devs are idiots.) come backl for mission 2 and guess what? im grounded, i need to improve my faction standing with the rebellian, im -5000 FP. how much exactly do i need to get? if it +200 then the devs can kiss my accounts goodbye, im loosing my patience with the devs and this game pretty quickly.
If i was george lucas i would of /slapped these devs until they cried.
YOU, my friend, are a bafoon. If YOU truely think that the devs should change the faction system to make it easier for YOU to change factions when YOU have -5000 rebel faction points, YOU have no business playing this game anyway.
Games are supposed to be challenging!
i can see you failed to read any posts in this thread. well done!
I didn't make my point clear in that post as i was extremely angry, what i wanted was a warning originally, hell i spoke to the rebel coordinater first, hecould of told me to improve my faction standing, he didn't he sent me to the trainer, that trainer then trained me as a rebel pilot - understand I WAS A REBEL PILOT, i flew a mission for the rebellian, land. speak to the trainer again and it tells me im grounded because ive been working for the empire.
guess what! rebels are showing with purple titles which is normal for people of the same faction, essentially i was able to join the rebellian, i talk to an imperial recruiter and he says theres no way hes talking to a rebel pilot.

That's kinda what I thought you were saying to, yet I get one-starred for agreeing with you? Weird...
