When is it OK to say, "It's Not OK"

[Ghishlain]

I'm part of an RP FC right now because they actually treat me like an equal instead of a roadie. I have an obligation to the people who have treated me like a human being so I can't leave.

Then begin an LS in the attempt to find like minded individuals to help you clear your content. Several people from several different servers have indicated success in doing so, and you can do so yourself. You don't need to have your FC to be part of a raid capable team, it's just the most convenient approach to raiding.

The most important thing is not to give up. There are a strong pool of players capable of doing it, it's just a matter of finding those capable players and applying the glue to keep them around. This is not easy, by any stretch of the imagination. As a static leader myself, I can understand and appreciate the plight of this.

Again, the best advice is never give up. You will run into good and bad players, start small. Getting the first two - three people online will be the toughest. Once people see learning parties set up that are already half filled, they'll be more inclined to join these parties. This is especially true if your "core" group consists of a tank (two would be great!) and a healer, as the most difficult roles to fill have already been filled. Since you yourself are a tank already, you've already beaten one of those steps. Find another tank and a healer friend who's interested, and go from there.

Good luck~

[EDIT] You don't even need to have an LS, just as long as you can keep an open communication with the other individuals of your group. While six of my current static are in the same FC, I am sure to get in touch with everyone on an individual basis via /tell, Skype, Mog Mail, etc.. and ensure everyone is on the same page for the time frame designated. No LS needed, just keep an eye on your FL. You can do similar. [/EDIT]
