I wouldn't go that far, I think he just has more of a presence on the boards which enables the other admins to go about their duties alot more hassle free.

I'm sure they all talk about these issues collectively before it's decided that one of them should address it publicly, which makes sense.

Dispo summed it up.
Portable: How's everything going today?
Dispo: 5 bans and ya 1 server pause.

I think it ironic that this thread came up today. I dont know if its cuz VOIP is out and not many regulars are populating the server, therefore leaving room for the public to join. However this came about I am glad all the admins are keeping on top of things, not only today, but in the past when there ave been outbreaks. I'd like to thank them for that. Let me make one thing clear:
I AM NOT SUCKING UP IN THIS POST!

Very good post, I think this should put some people straight. I read in a post alot of new players get intimidated by TG tags wearers and it should completely be the other way around. When i joined i know i always wanted to join a TG squad leader and it needs to get back to being that way.

I keep seeing that people are intimidated by TG tag wearers which I find kinda strange. If anything I was inspired by the TG tag wearers when I started playing on the server.

I thought the game play tonight was much better. The lack of in game VOIP seemed to make people work harder to communicate and use TSpeak. It was refreshing to see people work to communicate. Perhaps we should go VOIPless more often?? Not really, but the result was better, more TG like play.

My biggest problem as of now. In order to have fun in a tank I need good Infi. Some times it feels like if "you" dont run the Infi squad no one will. Thus you dont get to reload off the enemys main base.

I thought every |TG| tag was an admin. Hmmm 40 admins, strange place this is.... and I had no clue what |TG-XV| and |TG-X| and the others were. Lets just say I was confused.

Back on Topic: It would seem we need to advertise this thread on the server to get more people to MAYBE read it and follow it.

I've found this too. I used to fight tooth and nail (or, just click repeatedly) in an effort to join a squad with |TG| tagged members, but lately I've had the impression that people are finding the tags intimidating.

I will be happy to be the boots on the ground anytime.

Infantry is the Queen of Battle you know.

Infantry are the backbone of battle... calling them queens might get you duct taped to the front of a humvee.

I disagree... trying to lead a squad with no microphone working was silly. I didn't even figure it out until after five SOLID minutes of talking to me squad. -_- It makes me not take VOIP for granted, in any case.

Artillery are the Kings of Battle. Everybody knows this.

In chess the queen is the most important player. So I don't take offense to that at all.

I know I had been off the PR server for a while but I had noticed a lot of disrespect since my comeback compared to when I first came on the PR TG server. Surely most of the players doing this are new players to the TG server and have no real clue but that should be no excuse, you do have most of the rules in the chat area for them to read. I sometimes would love to be an admin but know I would lose that privilege really quick for the simple fact I would probably get kick happy.

**uk-warrior** · 10-25-2008, 02:28 PM

Nar sorry dude.....The Queen is just another part of the team no Greater or Lesser than any other piece on the board.

I have read all the posts in this Thread, and I say this Friends great job!

Finally.....To wear the TG Tags, everybody should know what is expected of them, it is not a Rite but a privilege to be part of this community.

If you can’t respect those around you maybe it's time you did the walk.

This is NOT aimed at any one individual...But we have a saying "If the cap fits wear it"

Rant ova.....see you on the battlefield.
