Thank you for your patience. I have been testing it.
Persistence is a rare attribute, but so is patience. Both are the marks of leadership. Your first week will be fun. Your second will begin to die down. Your third, activity will begin to taper off. This is when both of these attributes - persistence and patience - will begin to be tested. And how you fare will determine this factions future - or lack thereof.
I like your planet placement and your organization. I wish to share one last bit of advice:
Be kind to the members of this Faction, and remember - going Major means you are no longer the sole owner of this Faction. It belongs to the community now, and I will intervene if you begin to abuse your leadership over other members and cause such an atmosphere of negativity that players wish to quit the forum just to get away from this faction. While this may be an extreme, it has happened before, so I advise caution to all.
You are this faction's direction, but the members of it are your strength. Treat them with the respect they deserve, and you'll be rewarded. Treat them with abuse and passive aggression, and... *makes a dramatic flash in the pan*
This faction has been approved for Major Faction status and will be placed on the Galaxy Map this weekend.
