I was member of Nightmare Squad when RJO first started. Idea was to co-ordinate a few squads during the week for planned attack across multiple bases at once. First couple weekends it was great to be involved and see the planning unfold. Unfortunately the horde mentality of the masses took over, couple initial squads dropped out because of that and other reasons. Subsequently the planning and tactics for RJO was taken over by hordes just looking to roll a map as quickly and easily as possible.

RJO at first was great, mission planning and co-ordination during week best I've ever been apart of and unlikely to ever see again.

Id be happy to see the RJO come back. The reason is that the missions were planned and laid out with multiple groups sort the force, while large was hitting a number of bases at the same time. Even if you could only get a half dozen guys together to defend at a spot you had a chance to do it. As it is now with todays horde a half dozen guys might get through the first pass, but then everything is flat and your upping from the next base back which in most cases will get you there wayyyyyy to late to help, or even pick off a few lemmings as they disappear to up for the next un-defended base.
