Just thinking if there could be a set of people who roleplay as a character not under the Empire's payroll. Like citizens. -----------------------

Why not make it an RPG style thing and run it off of IRC? Use it as a form of "game" to increase activity. -----------------------

"The way of war is a way of deception. When able, feign inability; when deploying troops, appear not to be. When near, appear far; when far, appear near. Lure with bait; strike with chaos. If the enemy is full, be prepared. If strong, avoid him. If he is angry, disconcert him. If he is weak, stir him to pride. If he is relaxed, harry him; if his men are harmonious, split them. Attack where he is unprepared; appear where you are unexpected. This is victory in warfare; it cannot be divulged in advance. Victory belongs to the side that scores most in the temple calculations before battle. Most spells victory; least spells defeat; none, surer defeat. I see it in this way, and the outcome is apparent." -- Sun Tzu

We used to have the text-based RPG games/scenarios on mIRC. Those eventually faded away because it was hard to find a GM and participants that could stay for the whole 3-5 hours. -----------------------

I meant a forum based one. Or maybe like something that could fight against the VE as a live enemy....to spice things up. -----------------------

Another thing is, why would we create another division when the two main ones we have aren't super active as is? Why would we want to draw away more activity to something else as well? -----------------------

You are already drawing our activity in your own RDA thingamaging, you already have your own division by the looks of it. -----------------------

Interesting suggestion- perhaps it could be used yet. We'll see. -----------------------

Hmm, allow me to give my take on the topic.
Kairo has a point, to include another division would only divide the numbers within each division and therefore divide the activity. While some people have no qualms about such an issue, others do. Otherwise, you would be stuck with the possibility of an unsuccesful division. Chances are the majority of people who join here would like to live an adventurous life as part of the Empire's military, considering most citizens live under the watchful eye of the authority in the galaxy. That's not to say there aren't any crime syndacites within the galaxy. That's what the forum you had created previously would be for. Don't get me wrong, though. I beleive that once the Vast Empire becomes an increasingly active site that their will definitley be room for addition.
Regarding the comment on an enemy associate. I find that that's an excellent idea if both associations are compatible with each other. Too many times have I witnessed the fall of of a community due to fierce disagreements which lead to problems that either severley weaken a continuity's structure or flat out destroy it. -----------------------

Part of the reason why people misunderstand "activity" and "things to do" in the VE is becaue they do not understand the situation the VE is in:
1) The VE isn't just a "place" to post stories. We actually have a purpose. The VE, timeline-wise, is currently in the Thrawn Era, so we do have a common enemy: the New Republic.
2) Great events/campaigns that take place are known as Chapters, and soon Chapter 9 will be emerging - an activity that involves all divisions, including the Dark Jedi Order.
3) We are not the sole Imperial faction in the universe. There are multiple factions that have formed after the fall of the Emperor, and we need to watch out for those forces as well. On the contrary to what many may believe, not all Imperials are comrade with each other. In fact, there are several Imperial factions that wouldn't mind seeing us destroyed - making them the more powerful Imperial remnant.
Now, activity proposals for inner-divisional competition are always welcome. This is not to say that other proposals (such as new divisions) aren't welcome. By all means any and all proposals to help make the Vast Empire a more fun and enjoyable website are always open, but we need to watch how we disperse our activity. -----------------------

Well, considering all this I propose something else as well as a few responses.
1. The RDA will dissipate at the end of the stories.
2. I would hope it is not drawing attention from other divisions especially since I haven't seen posts there for a while.
3. I try to include in the RDA thread that those participating need to make sure they do their squad/ron responsibilities first.
4. I realize that there are imperial factions that are against us.
Now
requirements for a group not affiliated with VE
1. 1-2 years in a division and in good standing to join.
2. Must stay in division along with group.
3. Will role play out key characters in an affiliation(s) that target the VE as an enemy.
4. Organize attacks and battles against VE.
5. Roleplay out the loss of said affiliation and add more depth than just roleplaying a battle against enemies you control.
6. Gives face to the enemy.
