Alsius on Horus.

Lets get serious for a min. We have communication and organizational problems. Other realms are taking advantage of that.

Here are my suggestions. Helpful additions are welcome. Flames will be ignored. Subversion will be refuted.

Not only are we being invaded through the gate, but we are also being invaded through our own initiation zone. We aren't going to be effective unless we start policing ourselves. We have a good crop of disruptive, loud, obnoxious, attention seekers that are also probably spies. We have to learn to live with it. We have to learn to deal with it. We have to learn how to be effective and cohesive over the noise.

Voices need to earn the right to be heard. Start using /ignore. It's the best command in your inventory, and probably the least used. You DO realize how many chars are in our realm from other realms that aren't looking out for your best interests DONT you?

Stop listening to and taking direction from people that are lower level than you. Higher level players have earned the right to be heard. If they make a tactical mistake in battle, they will learn, and so will you. Leaders need to learn from their mistakes just as you do. We have to give them the opportunity to learn tactics with resources at hand, otherwise, they have no way to learn what works and what doesn't.

Higher level characters.... I will follow you. I will listen to you. I'm giving you the responsibility to lead me in battle and to make the right decisions. I will try to do the same when the time comes.

If you have a high level char and show up for battle in another low level char, with the possible exception of a clan leader (and you should know better...) Expect to be ignored.... Plain and simple.

Stop using realm chat for tactical information. Stick to party or clan. Using realm for anything over the wall is just plain stupid. Ignore it. Seriously, ignore it, please.

Quit abandoning party for general, and finally degrading to chaos in realm chat. You are in a tactical unit. PAY ATTENTION TO PARTY OR CLAN.

If there is a level 8 n00b next to you on a horse in the wz, HE'S PROBABLY A SPY DUMMY! Use general sparingly. Stick to party or clan.

Stop listening to and taking direction from people that aren't in your party or clan during battle.

Offer advise to other players. Don't force it on them.

Getting chat requests during battle is very very distracting.

If you have a problem with a higher level character, take it up in PM or clan after the battle is over. Flame away. Keep the flame wars out of realm chat. It's demoralizing to others, and only serves to help the enemy.

Hehe, reminds me of the time I was in the warzone with my low level knight at Horus. Someone told me to shut up and listen to the seniors.

Lol. Life is funny on lower level char

I've also seen the "rp string" run from agg altar following a lvl 8 before

Stop smoking weeds Radian. Leadership ain't earn on XP, you earn it on battle field. From my experience when you lead a group you will do mistake. What is important is what you will do after to cope with that.

I'm not playing on horus, but really you guys make me laught about the spying. I would never use party chat for coordination during a fort war. FFS it's only 8 people. When you need chaining areas at shaana you want to reach all the warriors at least and few warlocks ^^!

I don't follow people that are higher level to my character blindly, I follow the one I trust because they earned my trust in fight. And I'm happy people don't ignore what I have to say when I'm not logged on my level 50s character.

Alsius/Ra uses parties to coordinate in wars and it works fine.

Even lvl 50 can be noob with no idea of tactics or strategy. Look at me... On Horus it is even more simple to follow people worth following and listening to because you meet the same ones every day. I think after few wars everybody can have a nice idea of who is the right one to lead the group.
