Well, they could merge the normal factions with op factions giving players their ranks on op factions , or reset it again .
Not sure how they would merge normal factions with OPFactions. Also a lot of players have a rank on both servers.. so how would that work?
In my opinion they should reset normal factions and make a "
Help us out with the next normal factions reset" thread so players can suggest stuff.
I think that most important for that reset should be removing custom enchants & mcmmo and make it bug-free reset. Of course updating plugins(Normal Factions wasn't reset since November of 2019). Adding the jar that already exists on OPFactions(Hyperion) and adding Paypal Payouts like on other competitive servers(OPFactions, SkyBlock, OPPrison)
It might not be as popular as OPFactions, but I think it would bring some new players as well since its Normal Factions and not OPFactions. Worst thing they can do is keep reseting OPFactions because the gap between donator factions and other factions is insane.
