Well maintaining your server and making sure everybody is following the rules is a start but here is an addition that you could make
Only Limited amount of Factions (disband unregistered factions)
Doing this will encourage lots of people to join those factions, and less spam factions.
Faction battles don't really happen a lot. it's mostly just looking around for stuff to kill, flying around the enemy home base to pick off anything undocked etc.
If you had large, active factions, coordinated battles could take place (set up by the leaders) which to me sounds awesome, I mean who doesn't want to see 2 fully manned fleets meet up and duke it out.
Jusy imagine the productivity of a 50 man faction
they could do a lot cooler things than just random kill some guy who's buying stuff
