| - I hardly even noticed when it started to happen. I just did the same thing I always did, and suddenly I started getting tells from prior teammates about how much they liked my leadership style, or how they always leveled on my teams, could I please invite them if I was forming one, and so on. This startled me, because I was doing just the same things I always had been—the sorts of things that would lead to gaining XP rather than debt. I was just doing them for the whole team, instead of myself alone. But somehow, this ended up being seen by the rest of the team as "good leadership."

I just did the same thing I always did, and suddenly I started getting tells from prior teammates about how much they liked my leadership style, or how they always leveled on my teams, could I please invite them if I was forming one, and so on.

I was just doing them for the whole team, instead of myself alone. But somehow, this ended up being seen by the rest of the team as "good leadership." I am not sure how much of this I can impart in this guide. A lot of it is just a question of good judgment, and that only comes with experience. But I can at least fill in the stuff that fits around that judgment to make teams go easier. There are some people who just are not the leader type. There's nothing wrong with that, and just reading this guide will probably not magically transform them into leaders. So, if they have friends who are the leader type, they should make sure those friends read this guide instead. As I was writing this guide, I noticed that I ended up speaking in two voices. When I am making general suggestions, I say things like "You should do this and that." But I realized as I was writing down specific things that I do, it just does not sound right for me to tell you to do them. So, instead, I will just lay them out, and you can follow my example, or find your own ways that work better. Enjoy the guide. —Robotech Master 18:34, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
