It also says in the faction description that it is for advanced players.
I also want to add: While it seems very common to have only pure traders, it is not the only solution. With very few points it is possible to have enough fighting skill to make a contribution, and its possible to defend.
Of course, as long as there is a safe zone somewhere were everybody can come to, it doesn't really matter if safe or not, why should someone come there?
On the other hand, as soon as either:
1) Safe zones are not avaiable so readily for all anymore, or
2) Not every faction is welcome anymore at plaza 1
There will be new trading zones - safezone or no safezone.
I still believe that when there is a need to protect your finest, your best, your traders - then it will really build a community. When noone is needed for safety, what do you need others for?
Thats the main reason for my position in that matter i think.
