Its one of those things that in small gang PVP is annoying. You find a target thats too big to chew on, and ping a mate whos running around somewhere with another small gang. Lets join up and kill that thing.
Usually - its a case of defleet, invite one to a wing, let them reinvite, rejig as required. Its always a PITA, particularly if there's no shared channel with some, or alts etc, and Logi squads etc all needing a rejig.
Proposal: Invite X to Wing/Squad, bring her fleet.
Basically, if someone is running a Wing (or squad) that fits into your fleet, then they can be invited in to a newly created one. The merge requires no 'defleet/refleet', just a different type of invite.
Obviously, the owner or Fleet Commander can disable this in a fleet setup to offer some protection. |

No, it fails miserably. Lets imagine Bob invites Janes gang - with wing and 3 squads. Of that Wing, standings wise, there are 10 or so blues, 3 or so 'nothings' and a couple of odd others you marked gray one time. Their scout squad is full of alts, of NPC corps.
And you want to use Fleet finder to define that, letting in (for that time, everyone and their dog)? Then reconstruct the whole shebang back to what it was?
You don't do fleets much do you? |

this is indeed very much needed! even if,by inviting the fleet boss all the fleet members get put in the fleet as if they joined themselves, that alone would be a huge improvement everything more would just be awesome Quote CCP Fozzie: ... The days of balance and forget are over.

this should be a 'boss-to-boss' feature,
boss A says to boss B - hey man - you wanna merge our fleets - I'll put you in your own wing boss B says - yup - let's do it - fleets merge as detailed above, boss issuing the invite keeps boss status this does then require the ability for WC and SC's to cede their wing/squad from the fleet (maybe requiring boss permission/fleet setting), but that could be VERY interesting
For posting an idea into F&I: come up with idea, try and think how people could abuse this, try to fix your idea - loop the process until you can't see how it could be abused, then post to the forums to let us figure out how to abuse it..... If your idea can be abused, it WILL be. |

Aren't you glad you can link fleet adverts in chat then? "CCP is changing policy, and has asked that we discontinue the bonus credit program after November 7th. So until then, enjoy a super-bonus of 1B Blink Credit for each 60-day GTC you buy!"
Never forget. |

Are you missing the point?
Its the deorganize reorganize of possibly 55 people, all in different roles, sometimes 2 alts or more for some people, sometimes with boosters set .. and you want everyone to 'defleet', 'click' and then type move me to here/there? Or all shout on teamspeak?

+1 I like this proposal, it would simplify with 1 button/click an otherwise tedious process.
I run a fair amount of incursions, and I've noticed it can be quite a pain if 2 fleets are attempting to merge to run larger sites (i.e. 2 VG -> 1 AS or 2 AS -> 1 HQ) This can be accomplished by one fleet all dropping fleet and X'ing up in the base chat but if someone randomly X's up and gets an invite you're now stuck trying to sort out who belongs in what squad as well as who doesn't belong. The proposed feature is a simple, clean, and definitely not game breaker |
