I think your event has put an idea into my head. A brilliant idea of a short event can change the game significantly when it applies eternally.
And sincerely, I don't want to wait 4 hours just for approximately 15 minutes combat again. (not mention about inconveniences caused by few interruptions during the event, which drove players reluctanly bored and quit)

There are many other options for events... You could run an open fleetwars event, where everyone joins into the server and battles for a while. But the server will never be left up indefinately.

Allow me to illustrate the idea so that you don't misunderstand me.
In Selection screen:
Step 1 - Choose the side you want to join:
After choosing the side, the next screen will ask you:
Step 2 - Pick the faction you desire:
In general, side A must fight side B, that means you will face 3 factions instead of 2.
How about fleet? I think fleet will pick side along with faction. Example: ICCU is ICC A, GTN is UGTO B, PB is KL'uth A. Fleet admin can change faction whenever they want; but only DS staff can change the side. Broadly speaking, fleet is more flexible.
This idea comes to me when I play other games where a match takes place among random players. It makes the game always dynamic.
Another reason I have this dream, is when I think about community. Normally human will always searching for partner whose strength adds in the weakness of one's own, in order to making the group perfect. With the current development of DS, players NEVER stop complaining about their factions disadvantage, and usually overestimate the other factions advantage. Hence the QQ has been going around in circle. Now when you have another faction side by side with you, so do your enemies, you can no longer lay the blame at anything but your poor strategy, skill and teamwork. This is what DS mean to be:

I don't really like the idea of dual teams in each faction. Doesn't make sense for a faction to go to war with others if they have their own internecine conflicts.
But.... but..... if they do, I prefer that team to fight the other team, as well as all the other faction.
In short: I'm in K'Luth A.... I will fight Kluth B... and I will fight all of UGTO and ICC. I don't think that I'll ally with any of their Team A's at all. Cos it doesn't make sense.
Fleet wars will be much better.

Whats the difference between then and now?
Then they didn't like farming so turned off the pres.
Now, you can farm to your hearts content in various locations in the MV. So I say again, whats the difference?

1) No to two factions. Gimme a break.Find a new game if u dont like the three factions. Really.
2) The devs have supported the idea of bringing back fleet wars. It was never put on a front burner.
Fleet Wars Bracket Tournament
I agree, a fleet wars server is a nice way to go. I wouldnt support developing it if it means distraction from the main changes they are working on.
Keep in mind, they are volunteers.
