Blank Slate #4
Character
I understand my word will carry very little weight here due to me not being involved directly with this whole affair, or even have that great of an understanding of it outside what little I could read so far and skim, but wouldn't a compromise from an OOC perspective be best? If memory serves me right the initial disdain for a PC Dark Lord was primarily the fact it could open the floodgates to a lot of . . . unsavory behavior and potentially individuals, for lack of better terms. It ran the risk of destabilizing the faction as everybody and their mother would like to stake a claim at the throne.
If he wins, wouldn't it be best to allow [member="Darth Mephirium"] to hold the position of Dark Lord from an IC perspective due to all of the work and effort he placed into this, possibly granting him the rights of a Moderator or something along those lines to further cement it in both OOC and IC perspectives, while from an OOC perspective act as if a Council is in place? Rewards the man's tenacity / effort while minimizing the risks of any drama happening, both current and in the future.
If this has been stated before and shot down or if I'm being an idiot with all of this, I apologize in advance. That, and for butting my nose where it don't belong.
