May I join in?
Yeah, drop us a CS!
I don't really see how Twilight and Warpath messed up as badly as it has been stated by Fenrir and Thorn, both gave their team specific orders and tried to follow through with it. The problem was that not too many people posted.
Maybe they didn't Patriarch, but that's just how Fenrir and Thorn feels. That's the point of rping. You get in the shoes of another person, their likes and dislikes become your's, their triumph's your triumph's, their defeats yours. Thorn and Fenrir feel that Warpath and Twilight have failed, and they are both characters that voice their opinions.
However that only applies as far as the IC. Like you've been told before, just because a character says something negative about Warpath doesn't mean it's an attack against you. Vice versa I'm not going to take it personally if a character says something disrespectful about Fenrir. Fenrir might, but that only extends as far as the IC.
You are right when you say that not many people posted. As you've no doubt realized we have been unfortunate enough to have several drop-outs, the vast majority of those unexplained. I'm not any happier about it than anyone else - in fact it pisses me off no end - but it's not as if I could have forced them to post. It's just a peril we face RPing I'm afraid. All we can do is persevere, and continue trying to enjoy our RPing experience. If I was to cancel and restart every mission every time we had a drop out we'd honestly never get anything done IC.
