Title: Just A Nice Little Reminder
Post by: Lito on February 04, 2004, 02:00:58 PM
DO NOT GET IN THE CHAIR IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO COMM.  IF YOU GET IN THE CHAIR, JUST COMM IT OUT, EVEN IF YOU ARE NOT A GREAT COMM.

Why? Well, lets see:

1.  Every comm has a starting base config.  Once you set the first building down, no other comm can command because it just makes things more complicated.  Once you put that first building down, you are the comm.

2.  So what if you're not a good comm? everyone has to start somewhere.  Why not just play it out, and atleast get some experience.

for the love of GOD listen to your team, do NOT ignore them.  They will give you advice on how to comm.

NS is an ***************** team game.  If you don't want to listen to your commander, get the hell out.

We need an admin_commander command to force people back into the CC if they try and escape. That would be fun. = )

Although usually what you seem to get more often than people fleeing the chair halfway is people sitting in the chair and not doing anything for the team OR getting out. I've stopped using the 'eject commander' button when I see this, and just started kicking them. A non-active comm can ruin the game for everyone on the team. And unfortunately most eject comm votes fail since a lot of people can't seem to find the eject comm button! What's wrong with all these noobehs?!

I'd just like to add one thing:

If you're comm with no base guards or turrets and some skulks come in. DON'T GET OUT OF THE CHAIR!!! Just tell your marines to get their sillypance back to base because if you die and they kill a bunch of stuff (ips, armory) before marines get back you're fubar'd. You might survive the attack but it's going to be a slow painful game for you.
