Thanks, squad

**JeLi** · 08-20-08, 12:08 AM

I've been coerced persuaded to squad lead lately, and while I'm learning lots, it's a slow process. I apologize to the poor squads who've witnessed this lately. Much thanks to all of you for being so patient and putting up with my confused thrashing :P Especially the ones tonight. I think there was B, Al, Anira, Laggy, Turtle, Bruticous. Way to make highest scoring squad in spite of me! Thanks for making me look good.

Note: I'll try to communicate more as my brain learns to keep up with everything!

I think you did fine Jeli. Practice makes perfect!

**Alundil** · 08-20-08, 12:17 AM

You did fine J - all it takes is practice.

And more coercing.......errrr..... encouraging

We all started there. You'll get alot better.

Especially if your playing at TTP.

You did a fine job! When you sl with people you are comfortable with it's much easier. And once you get down the orders and such, it will all fall into place. I still have a hard time when I get a talkitive commander and then my squad is talking...sometimes it makes my ears bleed!

Keep at it girl!! :10

Good luck with SLing. I've been doing a lot more of it when I'm in game as well as Commanding. Don't be to hard on yourself. By virtue that you talk with your squad and issue orders your better then 70% of the people leading squads and by virtue that you start your own squad your better then most of the players on the server.

I really wish someone would post a tutorial on how to use your squad more effectively. Like I pretty much had to figure out on my own how to use the "T" function ingame. Before I was pulling up the map, switching to command mode (Or whatever it's called) and issuing orders that way. Very time consuming if your a SL on the front lines.

Now if only I knew how to kick non-teamplayers out of my squad.... *HINT HINT One of you "old timers" can hop in here and explain it*

im not an old timer but ill explain

in the squad screen (caps lock), click the "manage squad" option from the bottom and on the top section of the pullout display you can select what members you want to kick (its on the screen that you use to invite people)

Looks like somebody volunteered for the tutorial! I second that Ironman would write a great tutorial on this topic. All in favor say 'Aye.'
