Your first assignment on the Basic Social Interaction course will be to get the Valentine badges by learning to team with other people.
What server are you on?

If I'm a good boy I won't be in game at all tonight - I really should finish up my entry to a contest I am in. Already procrastinating by checking out the boards. But I work overnights so days off (like tonight) I am around anywhere from 10pm (eastern times these) to noon... Days I work more like 8am til noonish...
Then leave your global, and I'll contact you when the lesson begins

Must warn you, I'm a college drop out. 
Plus I don't care about the badges so much as the costumes. I'm curious how a toga would look on Caemgen and the hearts pattern might be nice on Fenian - she's the only character I play that changes costumes a lot... Or at all so far.
So to large extent I won't care if I don't get them (I know, so why'm I complaining, right???)
Anyway, my global is easy to figure out: @caemgen. Though I didn't get my contest entry do e yet so I may have to dedicate this and tommorow mornings to that... Though this weekend I'll at least get the hearts pattern even if I have to team with myself to do it
Can too!!!
But the good news is my contest entry is finished!! Woohoo!! (Well, except for some spit and polish detailing but the battle was to get it all out, making it as shiny as I can I should be able to get done at work tonight for the most part...)
But the bad news is it'll likely not qualify anyway 
What that all has to do with hiding? No idea...
Hmmm, sleep, then work overnight, then have to run with my static team tommorow (see! Not totaly anti-social! We meet twice a week! Ha!) and then sleep and more work...
I'm safe til the weekend!

Never complained they were hard to get, just that your forced to team to get them... (besides, who said my morning team were friends?) |

Also said early on that most my comments were in jest
But I do hate anything that forces teaming. I play solo 90% of the time. Some due to the odd times I play, some due to choice. Why, at 3am, when the people I do talk to are generally sleeping and I am running missions between loads of laundry, should I suddenly have to stop and find a team so we can defuse 4 bombs at once? By the time I find people to help I'm going to have to take my laundry out of the dryer and fold it or end up with wrinkles!!
There's also the point of not even wanting to ask my static team to do Vday event 20+ times just so I can get all the badges and costume pieces for all my toons. I'm sure they would help but all in all I'd rather not force them to when we all could be benefiting from running arcs or taskforces or whatever..
And yeah, I'm a bit of a freak in that I am all introverted and a social recluse. I get that. I am also fine with it. I don't really expect the game to adapt to my quirks and wants.. But I am a bit annoyed that teaming is the oy solution here... *shrug*
I think it'd still be good for you to come out of your shell a bit - team with people you don't know

Egads! If I started doing things that were good for me I would have to change pretty much every aspect of my life!!!!
Shooting someone in the head CAN be good - doesn't mean it usually is.
You don't need to kill yourself to avoid teaming with strangers

Pfffffft, as if! Despite all my quirks, I'm still way too awesome to ever not exist
(hmmmm, seems we have a thread all to ourselves. I think I scared everyone else away... Or is that bored?)
Dracula was scared of sunlight and he scared millions!!
I'm much more of a nibbler...
I think you need some basic social training
As for training, unless it involves whips and chains, I'm not interested
