I've been seeing a lot of messy attempts at roleplay coming from Joeanian Space Program and his newly formed faction. If you are serious about wanting to take part in the factions system, then I suggest you heed this advice.
If you want to join in the factions and be taken seriously, you need to tone it down. Firstly, you need to pay attention to how technology has shifted, as we're working in a setting that's several hundred years in the future. Nuclear weapons, although still around, aren't nearly as prevalent as other weapons systems (correct me if I'm wrong TtTOtW). More importantly, if you're on Earth, which I assume to be true, you're working within the Solar Empire's territory, so you really shouldn't be putting emphasis on things like ICBMs. Additionally, this should really go with out saying, but DO NOT use current events such as Coronavirus as part of your faction's story. We do not exist in the same world as the sfs factions.
Those are some of the specifics, but they point to a broader problem. You NEED to take the time to work out your footing. Work out the purpose of your faction, and take the time to figure out how it will fit in to the bigger picture. Take it slow. None of the factions which stuck around were formed overnight. So many have come and gone which acted just like yours. That's why people like Horus aren't taking you seriously. He does this with all of the new factions, and we can tell by how they react whether they're going to stick around.
Take note of how the current factions stuck around. My own Faction, the Kronian League, started as merely an idea. I wanted to create a sanctuary out of Saturn, but to keep it separate from the SE's power, as well as the other main power at the time, the NUO. That was my purpose. I chose Saturn because it was unclaimed at the time, and would make it easy to fit in. I still took my time though, talking with SE and NUO at the time to work things out in terms of how Saturn would fit in with the narrative. I never demanded recognition. I slowly worked out the details, revealing them to the forum on the way and working with the people who would join me early on. I never demanded recognition. I let my actions speak instead. It would be several months before KL would become a true faction.
A more useful precedent for you to follow would be the one paved by the ROA. Like you, Jez 10's faction is based on Earth. Unlike you though, he didn't just ignore the factions structure. He worked within the SE, amd developed slowly, not trying to be flashy, but actually creating his faction's substance. This is a path you should follow as well.
In order to begin to truly work your way into this role, you need to start talking with your connections.
If you're settled on earth, you need to talk with Danny Batten. He controls that planet.
In order to get more guidance involving the factions system in general, you can talk to TtTOtW. He's probably the most knowledgable about it. This is not optional. You clearly need to learn more about the world you want to join before you may actually become a part of it.
Take your time. Think about how your choices will play out before making your decisions. I can not emphasize this enough.
Honestly, I don't know what other advice I can give you.
I really hope to see you mature enough to join us in this.
