Yes, I am now someone else entirely! -
Holy CRAP there's actually a LOGIC behind this stuff? That's scary.

You have to be some kind of genius to pull off some of PK's shenanigans. He's pretty much an idiot savant of posting.
Can I quote you on that? -
Yes! At least you get me, Ironblade.

Damz old name use to be Noobbuster_Damz and he is famous for 'busting noobs' on the EU forums.
You made a noobish mistake of thinking that turning your rep off would result in it becoming less important...it didn't infact because you publically announced you're turning it off...people kept clicking on it and you kept having to deal with the comments.
So you made a noob mistake, he busted you for it, he is the noob buster Damz...
Ah, makes sense. Well if that's the case, he might need to change what word he uses, because in America, "busted", especially on internet forums, means that someone was caught being a hypocrite, which is a VERY different thing from what he's talking about. -
I..... don't get it. What the heck is this "busted" thing that you keep talking about. Because it MUST be different between Brits and Americans.
In America, when someone makes a choice, and then reverses their choice publicly.... and someone else points out the reversal of a choice publicly.... they're not said to be "busted".
They are only "busted" if they are hypocritical and say one thing and do another...I am confused. -
Someone wants me to change my avatar, but why? I LOVE Mr. Rogers!

Red-side Union is a pain to get a team on. But better no team than a terrible one.
It really shouldn't be hard to lead a team, but I managed to see it seeming like a herculean task today, as the PuG I joined at lvl 9 (with an 8, 11 and 12 in it) started getting lvl 15s, 19s, 4s invited to it. The leader kept Leeroy-ing and waiting for the rest of us to get into the mish before asking for a wakie or stuff to make it (at least that's what I assume the simple talk of "red" "blue" etc were...he may have just been telling us what colour of pills he was on at that moment) and he kept inviting people randomly into the mish. Eventually we got it sorted when we ignored his leadership and took it upon ourselves to work through the mobs. He then went AFK and said "please don't kick me" but whoever he passed the star too either did, or he disconnected. Can't say I was at all disappointed.
Holy crap, I must have teamed with the exact same guy the other day, there was a guy that acted exactly like that and spoke with the same caveman talk. Asking for the colors as well. So either we did meet the same guy, or there's an influx of WOWtards or something similar that were all "trained" with the same system. -
Holy crap! I just discovered that there is no more edit time window! HOORAY! Now you can go in and edit or update ANY post at ANY time! You never have to make another thread for updating your old guides again, you can just edit the original!
I'm going to spend this weekend reformatting some of my old guides and updating them, yay! -
Wow, sounds like almost everything I already typed out in that guide that I pointed out in the first post.
Which reminds me, I really need to go back and reformat all those guides for the new forums. Yay! I have a project for the weekend! -
All teams can "work" with the right strategy. I've proven it time and again by forming PuGs to do all sorts of tasks in the game.

Yeah, I'm really starting to wonder what ELSE is coming in another year that they can't even hint about right now. Hmmm....
I call total merger to a SERVERLESS SYSTEM!!!!! You heard it here first folks! -

Easier said than done if everyone you try to invite says "no thanks" or doesn't reply. Seems to happen villain side more times than I could possibly count on Union server (EU). And a happy team is a team which WORKS. It's no good inviting everyone who asks if the resulting team just faceplants in every combat situation.
I've had rotten luck trying to get teams in City of Villains for either my mastermind or stalker, so after months of having to solo the majority of my XP, I've all but given up trying. Trouble is that villain AT's are more designed for holding their own than for group play. There are some powersets which are more team based (such as kins, pain domi's) but most are still very soloish. In contrast, hero AT's are very team-centric meaning you're more likely to find teams as they'll always be in need of a tank or defender etc. -

Also, I thought PK was turning his rep off?
Oh wait...that must have been just another shrill cry for attention.
I think it's funny that I even predicted your response...

I've seen over the years on these forums lots of threads complaining that people don't lead teams. I've seen many MANY people in game that are all LFT in the same zone... never thinking to team up.
Okay people, I have to say something here... the star is NOT a disease, it's NOT a lot of extra work. Seriously. You are NOT responsible for someone else's fun, even if you're the team leader. You're responsible for YOUR fun, that's it. If what you're doing on your team isn't "fun" for someone, they can leave and go solo or find another team, nothing is making them stay.
On top of that, most teams don't NEED "leadership". Most players know pretty damn well how to play their characters. To use the analogy I used in another thread, most teams are a pack of rabid, angry dogs, and they just need someone to point them at what to kill. That's ALL that a team leader HAS to do. Pick the missions, and occasionally pick up a stray dog when the pack gets too thin. One mission every 10-15 minutes, pick up a player or two every half hour or so while the team still keeps going, that's it.
Keep them busy, keep them active, and that's all that they really want for the most part.
So please, PLEASE consider moving to the role of forming your own teams. Read the PuG TF guide in my sig for help in getting teams STARTED. It's made for TFs, but the team forming strategy will work for any team, just make sure that everyone is sidekicked or exemplared appropriately. Even consider bringing in 50s to a "normal" team as they get just as much influence exemplaring as they do playing at level 50. The only thing they miss out on is purple drops, and most don't really care that much about those, they just want to have FUN.
The game's population is mostly City of Wallflowers, and if you CHOOSE to be a leader, guess what? You'll automatically be the most popular person at the prom. You'll be King or Queen of the prom, just lead teams.
It really IS easier than it seems. -

PK, have you ever watched that series "The Penguins of Madagascar" on Cartoon Network? I never saw the movie, but my son and I enjoy the show.
And I like to imagine King Julien's voice reading your posts.
OMG that's totally me. -
