Classic Faction 1.0 vs. Velious Faction 2.0

There is a lot of confusion about current faction on P99 Blue. This page needs fixing, and probably two sections split-out: Classic Faction & Velious Era Faction. See https://www.project1999.org/forums/showthread.php?p=934050 for more info. Maximum 16:41, 25 April 2013 (UTC)

"Ally" release date

------------------------------
May 8, 2001  3:00 am
------------------------------
- There is a new /consider message: "regards you as an ally". This is 
the highest level of friendliness that an NPC will register using the 
/consider command. The faction required to reach this rating is 
significantly higher than 'warmly'.

Raising Iksar Faction on Project 1999

Project 1999 (P99) doesn't appear to use any of the faction ranges from Classic EQ.

On P99, as an agnostic dark elf enchanter, I had to kill between 441 and 468 Warslilks Woods goblins to go from killed on sight (KOS) to threatening to Trooper Walrun. If I had to guess, I'd say that actual value was 450 or 451. In order to get to dubious I had to kill a total of 801.

If you subtract 450/451 from 801 you end up with approximately 350 kills to get from KOS to threatening. As you can see from the tables, this should not be. It should have only taken 250 kills. This is a clear indication that P99 uses it own custom faction ranges that don't match Classic EQ.
