    T'was a cold Easter morning, so I stayed in bed a little longer  . I went over to the lovely city of Leeds and visited the Royal Armoury Museum. If you're interested in all things guns, swords, pointy things, sharp things and shiny things then this is the place for you!
    If you ever plan to visit car parking is not a problem and there's even some nice restaurants opening up to facilitate your belly.

    soo skimming through the walls of text i see a few different themes:
     
    1. I want to relax the rules on modded gameplay, don't want to upset anybody so i'll ask for a new space to do that in
    2. I want my vision of modsets in there and i do not accept any other view.
    3. I have no idea what's going on or what all this fuss is about
     
    if you are from group:
    1. just ask nicely if the rules could be relaxed, I myself find the rules to be a little uptight so I sympathise with you that you shouldn't have to worry about what role you select or what squad you fill up unless it's a structured game night.
    2. you are selfish and destructive, please change your attitude or leave because it is toxic to the survival of our online home.
    3. (like me), pull up a chair and grab the popcorn, we'll drink some tea and eat some popcorn to work this out.

    Listen if they don't want tea they can choose not to. We are not here to force it down their throats. However i believe this is all about how strong the tea is and who if any will drink it. EU3 is strong tea for men and EU1/2 is a strange tea many drink and not many understand. If this is to be a tea in the middle then it must be for and misunderstood frequently.

    Remember don't force them to drink tea if they can't/don't want too. Its a choice at the end of the day. A compromise must be made, a choice chosen and it must be fir the user to do.

    All is Tea. We shall return to the great teapot one day to be steeped and poured into a new teacup. All is water. Shanti.

    This is in response to the OP I'll say firstly
     
    I find it's more of an attitude thing. for example earlier today (i won't name any names in specific because that would be unfair on the poor asshat) there was just a horrible "I don't care about you, what you think, or what the plan is" attitude coming from a particular pilot.
     
    So no matter how many rules or what specific rule set you want to enforce it will always roll back to the person behind the controls. If you have a pilot who is switched on and has the interests of his team at heart you'll find that he will actively switch into whatever role is required. Should he or she detect that there is a logistical problem then he or she would hopefully react accordingly to keep the team's momentum up and the same goes for if he or she detects that ground assets require hard targets knocking out.
     
    You can set as many rules as you like but it won't remedy this stinky attitude. Make a point of leading by example if you are a frequent pilot, if you detect that a pilot isn't so switched on then tell them, simply put they're going to end up ruining your game experience and (as you've done already) make you not want to wait around at base for them. Finally if you still see problems as a last resort, shadowplay them at their worst and report their stinky attitude in confidence to an admin.

    Doesn't seem to me like something that'd be client-side only, but it might actually be useful on #3. We tend to break things. I wonder what the limits of this would be as well, i.e. could I use a Chinook to lift a boat towing a boat? Maybe I'll experiment.

    Perhaps and LZ marker should be thought of an approximate marker and not a pinpoint landing spot. At the end of the decision making it's the pilot in command that determines where is safe and effective to land. I'm skeptical of landing exactly where infantry plop on the map but with enough due care and attention 80% of the time you can put them within 500m of their desired spot

    Dear Members,
     
    Edited post:
    The community has asked and we have listened
     
    We will trial run the other games (create your own) channel as "Create your own channel"
     
    This is on the understanding that we name our channels nicely, no probing into grey areas, you don't want to waste admin time by them having to research whatever a papa frankau is or if that avatar is hitler or not. keep it simple for us and simple and friendly for you. and no chuck itty bitty titty is not acceptable 
     
    Play nicely and we'll keep it     
     
    original post:
    We would kindly ask that you name the channel you create to match the game you are playing.
    Failure to do so will result in your channel being deleted, further persistence may lead you down the path of the disciplinary garden.
     
    On behalf of the staff: we appreciate your cooperation.

    No worries But again, colsta makes a fact about the now and no resolution to the OP.
    I hope none of you take offence I respect you all for discussing this in a civilised way on the forums.
     
    Again my resolution (to stress my point) was not to add rules but to change attitudes.

    what you've done there is instead of responding to his opinion, you've just stated what is actually happening at this moment.
    I guess what he was suggesting was rigid structure to ensure one transport and one cas (If i may elaborate on what i think you were saying kirk)
     
    My opinion as stated above would be not to add rules but instead change the attitude and look at WHO is being an asshole in specific and then question their motive as to WHY he or she isn't being effective in the slot. This is something members can even do themselves.
     
    1. Notice the foul attitude or poor gameplay of the pilot
    2. Record outbursts of attitude or poor examples of gameplay (we all have our off days don't forget)
    3. Approach the chap and ask with regards to the attitude or perhaps suggest some time in the editor
    4. If no change, report to eu3 moderator with any recordings as a last resort
