It just so happens that the TG servers require you to join a squad or get booted...so those peeps that you, and most of us team players, have issues with jump in the first squad they see and fail to contribute because thats not their intention. Its your job as a leader to weed these lackeys out of your squad and look for capable players to replace them. From what I understand its the admins job to weed these players out of the server altogether if they don't get their act together. I dont mind these guys as much as you do...they are good target practice. But ya, if your not playing the game anymore theres really no sense for you to contribute to these types of posts. If there is a tactics forum people would appreciate your posts there im sure..but bashing active players is not needed IMO.

Never! You will continue to post until I say otherwise

To catch the new readers up to speed about kil, he has just recently retired and has important life priorities (work, etc) that needs his full and focused attention. POE and the gaming life has been put on the backburner.

So does that mean that he is unwelcome/self-exiled from the place where he had fun and enjoyed the time with others? Of course not. Just because someone doesn't play the game anymore (and has played it since its inception) doesn't mean they should exile themselves from the community and not par-take in discussions such as these. It also doesn't mean that they don't know anything about POE, which is very much the opposite in kil's case. People such as Kil and others that no longer play POE still provide terrific insight and advice to players; treating their advice like it's garbage is an insult to themselves and more than likely, an insult to the people that know and understand them.

When it comes to "lackeys" not obeying SL/CO orders, they are warned/kicked if they admins are aware of it. The best way to reach an admin is via Teamspeak. Keep in mind that TG is pretty much the only popular server in POE that caters to the Tactical / Teamwork Mentality; the majority of new players are unaware of how we play and why we play that way. That is why we need to Regularlize them. If we start kicking / warning everyone about how they are not obeying the rules, then that is a failure on the people that regularly attend this server to make them aware of the SOPs on the server. The server would also be quite empty. So what is the best way of enforcing the TG culture? By setting an example on and off the game; by being an SL that has "Squad Think" and not as an ego booster; by thinking on a Tactical level as opposed to an individual level; by playing the game consisting of pieces on a chess board. The list goes on and on, but the more you think tactically, strategically, and most of all, intelligently, the more respect you will earn here at TG.
