FC vs. LS -OR- How I learned to Create a Community

[Clavaat]

As leader, I just try to keep up on who is where in the game and what their playstyle is. I believe it helps to make sure no one gets ignored or left behind.

This is an important distinction to make. With an FC, this is easier to accomplish with Short Messages, but an LS, unless kept track of by some outside source, is very difficult to manage player by player. Forgetting about some members by definition can make your system exclusionary. By allowing us the ability to have some better form of management, it helps us keep track of everything for both an LS and FC.

Also, I thought I should note, that I don't pretend to be a professional on this topic. I know I wrote a lot, but if nothing else, it might have demonstrated how truly idealistic and ignorant I can be. I didn't lead in FFXI, save for a Sky run here and there. I do the best I can, but am always looking for ways to improve.
