Depends on the type of fleet your in and what the intention is.
However, even when flying a more relaxxed fleet you still dont want derps and people bringing random **** and generally ballsing up which causes the fc's to rage.
I want an arrogant, emo, ******* people when they derp FC in charge when the **** hits the fan when flying mult-billion isk fleets - i dont want a quiet meek dude who will tell everyone its ok to bring his drake to a navpoc fleet.............
Our fleets for example are for the most part quite chilled, drunken and good natured but once the time comes everyone has there game face on and does ther job, if you dont then expect to get a roasting as i for one dont wanna spend the next xxx time grinding to replace ships that are lost cos of someone derping.
You get to know the fc's, if you dont like how he runs it then dont join his fleet. |

for a year or something I was in Raiden. RDN FCs were all pretty chill and funny to fly with. Most chil FC's I've ever dealt with. |

But sometimes FC's need to show some tough love. The classic "I don't want to fly what you want me to fly" statement springs to mind.[/quote]
You are right, people need to bring the ship asked for but telling people by emoraging on them is pretty stupid. And sometimes, gasp, people don't have it for whatever reason and they still want to pew. Instead of sceaming at them about how stupid they are, cursing them and their whole family, etc. the FC should either say "I will make an exception" or they should say please don't join fleet. The issue is the way people treat others. |

I completely and totally agree with you on this. Personally, I try to be the cool head when I FC. I am respectful of the guys I fly with. I thank them and compliment them for doing well. I also try to ease the burn of a loss with an encouraging word. It worked for me as an infantry NCO in war and it works for me here. I think most guys really just don't know what it takes to lead. This is (eve) the only context they have for it and they do what others before them have done. People have to WANT to follow you.

Yes some can. Yes you do get some shouty 'i have no power in my real life so i want to be work though my issues on others'
For good fun FCs see:
Securitas
RvB's Ganked FCs
Ammzi
Aquilla Sagatta
Soulripper666 and Spooni (really they just seem grumpy).
I have however flown with some total tools. One thing that helps keep FCs from being tools is to follow instructions and don't talk over them.
However in Eve as in life there are people who just want to be incharge for thier own power trip...this tends to be the FCs who are tools. |
