Re: Angry Squad Leaders
Yes please keep the thread relating to angry squad leading experiences, or your view on the topic. Thank you in advance. I created this so that people would see what is actually happening when they 'chuck a spaz' as an SL/CO.

Re: Angry Squad Leaders
I think theres a difference between making suggestions and second guessing. Someone throwing their 2 cents in when I hatch some scheme isnt annoying. But when I ask someone to stay some where or watch a direction and they wander off or climb a building a block away without telling me, and the response is BUT BLAH BLAH BLAH, drives me insane. If that person thinks their idea is golden, it doesnt hurt to run it by me first, before I move some place and see my HAT guy is bleeding to death on a roof no one can get to.

Re: Angry Squad Leaders
The biggest thing I get angry about is myself.

If the SQD is not doing something right, you did a mistake 80%. That's what happens to me and then I realize what I did wrong.
Anyway, ofc I also kick a SM and tell the others it was his fault.

Re: Angry Squad Leaders
Agreed, the amount of times I bang my head on my desk when I have just done something monumentally dumb, usually when I know better and either just have a stoopid moment or push my luck too far or just forget to do the basics right. I try and find some hapless member of my squad to blame but can't carry it off convincingly and end up laughing before I manage to incorrectly apportion blame on the victim. Either that or the squad is just too savvy, know I screwed up, and are already laughing at me!

Re: Angry Squad Leaders
We just look at what went wrong and improve on that, simple. And if that doesn't work... the enemy is hacking!

Re: Angry Squad Leaders
I'm an angry squad leader. I try not to show it off, but a lot of the time when I'm squad leading, I'm yelling "WHAT THE ***** IS THIS *********** DOING OVER IN A6" or "HOW THE ***** DID THOSE *********** ******* GET BEHIND US. *********************************." I think my problem is that I have too high expectations of both myself and my squadmates. I have this idea that if it isn't perfect, it isn't good enough, and I seem to apply that to everything. If one squad member does something on their own by their own instinct, then I rage because that isn't part of my plan. When my plan fails because an enemy APC rolled up, I rage over how stupid I was to move in such open ground. When I or a squadmate die crossing a street, I rage over how my squad mates weren't covering me/them. I rage when I hear over teamspeak that there is a BDRM south of me and my squad dies because that BDRM was a BMP-3. I seem to demand that everyone else know as much as I do and that my squad mates match (or more often times exceed) my tendencies of how I work as a squad member. When I fail, I am disappointed, and I seem to express that disappointment in anger and frustration.
That is why I enjoy games like GRAW. My squadmates move exactly where I tell them, they tell me exactly what they see, they use whatever kit I give them, and they don't second-guess my plans, and they don't point out things that are irrelevant to the situation at hand. And they never, ever, give out a compass bearing of 365.|TG-XV| Waldo_II

Re: Angry Squad Leaders
Anyone who's been in my squad knows I'm a bad person. I never blame myself when it's my fault and I almost always end up sending someone to therapy.
Sorry Pancho.
There's actually some truth in this though
