Description:
One of the currently existing factions has 8 pwr points, which according to my calculations is imposible having all other factions underneath this power.

According to the current faction system, a guild who attacks a guild who has less pwr will not gain any pwr points, but if that guild attacks a guild with more power points, it will win 1 or 2 pwr, and the faction with more pwr ( and in this case has lost) will loose pwr.

So according to current events this guild's pwr surpasses all current guild pwr's so it's curently imposible for them to attain a new power point ( from 7 pwr points to

, so how did they get it? I expect this to be a bug and not some kind of hack, I don't expect such illegal intentions to have been taken, that's the reason I post it here.

Steps to Replicate:
I just don't know, check the faction list, it's imposible for this guild to have gained one power point having all other guilds below this pwr point.

I killed xyience causing the BG and NR to draw both with 6 pwr, however today i log on and find that they have 8 pwr and that we only have 5. So they must have killed a BG and earned 2 pwr.

Well that explains it. But who in BG was killed?

Well now that I think of it, in a battle between two opposing factions who have equal power, the loosing faction should not loose any pwr points as to keep a balance.

its not a bug.
Baladin, when you landed on claden last night, you were in red alert. you probably logged off without launching into space. your space client was still in red alert, and you logged out. therefore losing your power to NR, the faction which put you in red alert. next time, if you land on a planet in red alert, be sure to launch and wait for an all clear status before you log out.

you might knot bw aware of this, but you actually did it to me the other day after our fight when i was landing on xebec after you had me in red alert. i logged out numerous times to test things on the planet and later discovered that NR had recently lost a point to BG. thats how i found out about it.

Well that leaves this clear.

I still stand on this request though:
