Okay so as most of you must know by now @Hunnybuns has been setting up wargames nightly on US Horde and the first couple of nights had solid games, however the last 2 nights have been an absolute atrocious display for the community with countless arguments, afks and just a lack of respect to everyone else who wants to play.
So here's some guidelines or etiquette if you will:
1. Discuss with team and Pleb former about being comfortable with your class/role you're on:
As Buns discussed with the individuals involved before, if you sign up or get asked to play in plebs. Make sure you are confident/comfortable playing the role asked of you, if you're not comfortable playing the class/role asked of you it'll show to the rest of the group; you wont be having fun and in turn neither will anyone else and people will start leaving games.
Example 1: Rokkd didnt want to play FC and wasn't confident in what he was doing which ultimately caused their group to AFK later in the game.
This isn't to flame Rokkd (thats for another topic xx) but he even said he didn't want to play FC but didn't say that to the guy forming plebs and it just ruined the whole night in my opinion.
2. Don't AFK:
Another thing you shouldn't do in Plebmades is straight up AFK games, yes you might be pissed at people playing roles/classes they don't want to be on and knowing they're not even trying or don't know the basics of their class but straight up AFKing games and logging off your toon without first discussing with the people setting up the games about how they can balance teams or get people to switch classes is just childish and ruins your night, everyone elses night and makes @Hunnybuns or whoever is forming feel like 'whats the point of doing all this work just for this to happen'
Example 2: Raz AFKs a game with 2minutes left because Rokkd starts dismissing a good point Raz brought up (yes he might've brought it up in the wrong manner but its heat of the moment etc)
Again, this isn't to point fingers at Raz because i'm sure a huge percentage of the community would do the same, however. What he should've done is either play on while muting Rokkd or just sit out, go grab an irl drink, have a smoke or whatever to just stop it escalating into more, then talk with the Pleb former about how he to set up teams so he's no longer with Rokkd etc.
3. Help form the teams:
One last thing i'd like to mention, it hasn't been mentioned by anyone yet but it seems like only a few people are actually activing helping the dudes forming Plebs find numbers, it's stressful work. It might not seem like it but could you imagine spending 2 and a half hours (like yesterday 07/13)
forming numbers, filling spots, getting people in respective discords, replacing people who didn't have enough time to spend 2 1/2 hours forming groups, making sure people are on classes they actually want to play. Just for someone to DC/ragequit(?) first game with no warning then have to reform/refill group just for the second (and therefore last) game to end with people arguing, afking, not playing properly and then dipping for the night.
I would not be surprised in the slightest if @Hunnybuns didn't bother tonight (07/14) even trying.
