The ability...
« on: August 16, 2009, 11:59:28 AM »
The ability to let other players in a squadron other than the CO have CO like powers like setting invite/eject privileges.  If this is already possible, please show me how.

All of that has to be enabled  for each person he wants to give them to by your CO.

I'm not saying how to give people invite privs, I'm saying I want to give people in the squad, other than myself, the ability to give OTHER people invite privs.  For all practical purposes I would like a squad of COs.

No, that you can't do, CO is not able to delegate that far.
He can give any squad member invite, eject, change name privs.

But he can't give that player the ability to give the NEXT guy those privs. CO has to remain hands on.

Nor, should he be able to IMO, that would be a disaster looking for a place to happen.

So what you really said Mensa, was this........ "I'm lazy, don't feel like being the CO when I'm online... Sure wish I could delegate that to the other booobies in the squad."

Not trying to be a jerk....  But that is exactly what you sound like.

Uhhhh or maybe:  "Due to circumstances beyond my control, (that CRAZY thing called real life!) I am not able to be online much and would like for my squad to continue to grow in my quasi-absence.  However, since I started or was an important member in this squad I would rather not give up the CO position for this short term set-back."

Mensa's post sounded like a simple game mechanic request and not something worthy of a personal attack.  Nor do I buy the "this ends poorly" argument.  If the CO is trusting enough to pass out that privilege to others and they stab him in the back, that is their problem not yours.  If it happens in your squad, I suggest finding a smarter (or more intuitive) CO.

Well ultimately the power would be given out by the CO anyway, so if Mensa was not the CO...no soup for him. :)

Ah but let us get to the root of the issue......

.... Is Mensa making a power play for the 80th?

And how does the rest of the squad feel?

Do you call him a Traitor or a Patriot?

LOL..... I would agree with your statement..... Right up until the point where Mensa posted a thread about the rebel group in the ranks....... Now it just seems to be a public topic.
