Instead, the general tone was "Don't expect it again." I know those weren't the words, but when asked in Jello Shooters on Sunday, Major T made it clear that he didn't see any interest in a Villain-side Hamidon Raid and wasn't expecting it anytime soon. Other words like "abandoning" and "forgetting" were used (perhaps not by T, but at that point I was already getting anxious), and my blood got to boiling.
So, again, I'm sorry for reacting the way I did. It was uncool of me, and the attitude I posted under was completely out of line.
I'm leaving what I've posted as-is, though. I'll live with the shame.

I guess you are talking about the ITF thing. I'm concerned about that as well. I'm tempted to ask for names.

I've known both Yeti and Mr. Yet for quite some time, both are GREAT people to know and I call them friend. She is always one of the first to lend a helping hand, and unless it's RL she's always one of the first to be there ready to go, no matter what it is.
YOU GO GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!
Maybe I just havn't met the right Yeti.

Well, I read this thread because it had been hovering around for a while. However, it's entirely possible that a discussion could form around WHY it's not fun for some, and what steps could, and may, be taken to reduce that aspect of the raid. For example, I stopped going because of the nigh guaranteed death from the blooms. Has there been any attempt to avert them, or is the philosophy still to rez the raid off Oil slick?|

Meanwhile, I will have to agree that the problem really isn't advertisement, but a lack of interest in Red side as a whole. Everyone involved in a Hero Raid would know that the next one, usually set at the same time, would be Villain's turn, but since people actually avoid that part of the game, there simply aren't as many people with 45+ Villains.

Q: How do you wreck an Abrams?
A: You crash into another one.
I guess I'll throw my two cents and apologies in as well. While I am disappointed with the flipping that occurs with scheduling and if I knew I could do a good job I would try to become a raid leader, but I suck at leading the last few times I tried to lead a TF/SF I got pissed because I got railroaded by teammates and lost my temper. I'm sure by now several people have decided to put me on ignore on certain channels and I don't blame them, but like most people I just get frustrated and I know I can't expect others to do what i myself can't do. So I will try not to get so pissy in the future. I would like to say if I'm on in game I don't mind trying to lead on Task/Strike Forces I can always use online guides to assist me with those. And once again I want to apologize for my constant outbursts.

And I admit I really shouldn't have taped that "Kick me" sign to Yetis back but what can I say I love the classics.

This has been pretty well taken care of with AtT as the bloom hits. Come check it out next raid.

If somebody you're arguing with goes off the deep end, don't follow.

BTW, is there going to be any EoE farming proir to the raid? If so, mark me down for that, too.
So, I play primarily on Justice, but I have a few toons on Protector. I just got my bots/ff mastermind to 45, in fact, and I am looking to join a villain Hami raid. I've done a couple on Justice redside with my dom, so this will be a first for me with a mastermind. Be gentle. When do they generally occur? I am east coast and am usually available after 7pm EST.
Thank you!
