idk man. i've seen some of your articles and stuff and just from my perspective as a writer,
it really doesn't have anything that truly stands out compared to most of the current majors out there. It seems like this is more or less your own personal project that you're pretty heavily invested in, which is not to say that it's impossible for you to ever reach major, its just more-so you don't really have any distinct branding.
Right now you're a minor, and there's tons of minor factions out there and probably a good handful who are actively aiming to be majors sooner than later. Your faction doesn't really stand out imo, despite the investments you've made into it since creating it. My best advice would be to readdress your objectives maybe? They're aight, but like, they're all pretty basic in the grand scheme. Nothing really drives me to want to make a character within the Elysium Empire, because all those things you listed are really not that interesting in the grand scheme of some other stuff out there.
Make yourself stand out more with your objectives, yknow? Be unique, to a degree. Give your faction that schtick that makes it not just psuedo-imperial faction #5.
My next piece of advice would be to, well, learn how to suck it up. And I mean this in a non-facetious way, just to put it out there. If you want to be a major, or just someone who's trying to direct people through the creation of narrative, you're going to have to learn how to not come off how you did in that first post. It doesnt do you any service to drawing people to want to come under your faction's umbrella and have you represent them as a community.
And finally? Approach criticisms with an open and transparent mind. Alot of stuff posted here [ mine included, probably] will probably come off as blunt or somewhat snarky [hope mine doesnt] but you should still want to read between the lines if at all possible, you dig? There's some gold in here that would really help you improve as someone capable of leading a faction into some form of positive success/gain if you just pay close enough attention. If you lead a faction on chaos, there will be criticism thrown at you in one way or another, that's just the name of the game.
Anyway, that's all i got man.
