The unofficial QONQR forums opens a line of communication between players of the same faction, however everyone may not want their plans known to the public. So a new feature has been implemented where you choose your faction at registration, then using that, I will assign you to the appropriate group. Once you're in the correct group, 'hidden' forums will become visible to you, and you may use these secure sections to talk with your faction.
Before you ask, yes I do play the game. No, I will not cheat. That'd take all the fun out of it
