They should put Hero/Evil back in and if you decide to be either, then you can get the tracking, but you don't have to join it.

the most points you can lose from a death is 40.

if the cap were removed, and say franchise died, he would lose ~270 points

With only 6 pts possible per player the bottom line is that you are going to have a long time after a wipe to bring factions back to 'healthy'. The real thing that needs to happen is about 500 of these online players get involved... if you've got an idea on how to make THAT happen it would be worth while... otherwise....
Faction town holders should be allowed more control over the towns to impact the general player base even more hopefully forcing them into taking action and wanting to get involved.

Examples being able to disable or enable guards in a region, also if a faction controls all the towns they should be able to impact every town including the non faction towns. Allowing them to raise or lower taxes, place guards etc.

Also to draw in your average bank sitter into factions perhaps points and or silver can be exchanged for unique faction items and or rewards.

Finally Tracking in general could probably use a face lift instead of faction tracking the tracking skill should be revamped to track the following categories. NPCS, Monsters, Animals, Humans (Innocent), Humans (Criminal), Humans (Murderer), Humans (Enemy). The last category would be used to track Order/Chaos, Opposing Factions or members of a guild you are currently at war with.

Please for the sake of the shard, make it how it was about 1 1/2 years ago.
Which means bringing back hero/evil.
But the old AoE was kinda lame, how about make it so that if you're a factioner blue you can hit all other factioners but it wont hit innocent blues, not associated with factions. That was people dont turn you red when you eq a random house .

But definitely make it so that EQ hits all in factions and enemys,reds, greys and same with MS and CL.

Sorry sa

I think removing the 40-point cap would only worsen the lack of action. People would become even more concerned with losing points.
