Attention squad COs!

[RTHolmes]

I'm getting really sick of seeing almost every forum topic blatantly hijacked recently by players sniping and squeaking at other squads.

Its not everyone, but theres several squads who have players who just cannot help themselves and take any opportunity they can to get a dig in at their "rivals".

A little friendly rivalry and competition between squads is a good thing for the game. I dont think anyone one minds some lighthearted smack talk or banter ingame or on the forums (as long as its not derailing a completely unrelated topic) but very often it goes waaay beyond this.

Player numbers arent growing at the moment and this is not going to encourage more players to sub.

What I'm asking is that squad COs keep an eye on their players and reign them in when they see this stuff happening, and make it clear that its not acceptable. I will be doing the same.

Ok thats my 2d.

Remember this is a game people, not a real war.

Agreed, I've always thought interfering with a squad's recruiting thread is one of the lowest forms of behavior on this BBS.

I'm not a baby sitter... so no. this has been going on longer than 10 years I quit coming to this forum because of the disrespect. its up to the owners of the forum to police it.. not the CO's. every individul is responible for themselfs.

[RTHolmes]

I guess you can either ignore the disrespect, or do something about it. thats your choice.

that fact is that whether you like it or not, a players behaviour reflects on their squad as a whole.

you could have 20 great guys in a squad out of 21 and that 21st guy if he is a yutz , some will see it as the whole acting that way.

The problem is that these are not real "squads"  so there are no "consequences" to be levied other than getting biatched at or booted from the aquad.

By this I mean that there are no privileges to take away, no push-ups to be doing, no weekend pass to revoke, no barracks to G.I.

What do you suggest?
