Lets force everyone to join a gang they don't want to be in, clearly that would boost raiding activity.

It would be just like hosting events, your teams are randomly picked for you. Seems like the same players usually when anyway. We'd just be giving everyone a fair chance of winning at least once, which may cause the players that don't typically win to want to raid more often to win again.

Besides, I thought you guys liked being forced to use new stuff??

You're not forced to do anything, if you choose to sign up you know what you're getting into.

I'm sure you'll know at least one of the 4 captains, and can encourage them to choose you based on your performances. If you can't handle this, take matters into your own hands and try to put yourself in position to be a captain by giving a good performance that week, then you can choose all the people you want.

If you still want 100% exact teams, form a party with your friends and raid using skype. But that would be the kind of behavior we don't want to encourage. Everyone should try and give it their all, and when you're in a mass of players trying to win for their team or for their own placement, I'm sure you'll do the same.

I'd rather make it myself and take twice as long than be forced to use something 10 miles away from the point that's poorly made and requires 10 chat commands a minute to function.

Funny, I thought the whole point of the discussion was to create something everyone would enjoy regardless of whose idea it was. You're not staff at the moment, so I don't see how you'd implement your ideas anyway. I'm here to help, and to do that I'm looking for ideas that everyone would enjoy being implemented. I'm not going to come up with my own ideas because I'd rather get ideas from the players who actually pk and raid everyday.

Exactly the point.

You clearly didn't even read my post, the concept wasn't my own it was made by a group of players who are the best in these particular fields. And you just suggested random ideas that completely ignore some of the critical points of the whole idea. Top players becoming captains is a major part of the incentives of actively participating, and allows anyone their chance to lead -- without requiring GBA friendship or 300k. "Hey let's just ****ing vote on it hurdur"

You never listen to players, literally every single player that has posted on the other thread has asked to not have to use a cheap chat command to remove your 'little bigger colorful' inventory every single time they log-in.

And you're not listening to me now, you're just doing whatever you want as usual.. which will lead to asking Fiber what he thinks about something beyond his range (since he can't PK/Lead either). Resulting in a system with a billion knobs that have nothing to do with gangs.

Your words, not mine.

I was merely offering suggestions/help, I'm not doing a thing until these ideas start becoming a plan. I also mentioned leaders being chosen based on their rank within the first day. And I was asking Fiber for graphics advice, nothing more.
