#39186, "You fail to address the fact that there ARE limited resources."


          

Twist OKing Battle apps for example. Twist already runs *TWO* religions, oversees Nexus and in part Empire. Not to mention raising a family, and doing his RL job. Just becaue he CAN play a BattleRager character (and do it well), doesn't mean he should add that to his plate of CF duties. Firstly, by definition it means he would be spending less time watching those two cabals. Empire in particular is one that players OFTEN complain about people breaking the rules of Imperial Law, and it's something that often only can be caught be an Immortal keeping tabs on them as well. Secondly, even if he's just giving a nod and tabs in, then you're diluting the BattleRager experience. You've got someone who's only been rubber-stamped in.

While it's not perfect, I firmly believe that even with these difficulties, you're assuming there's more available than there might be. As another player mentioned...I've often taken the steps to change my playtime to meet up with said inductee. At the very least, have you made the simple attempt of leaving a NOTE for any of these inductee people you say you can't reach? They're the ones in charge, it's not outrageous to expect those who *want something from them* to take the little bit of extra effort to meet them. There's a point with some leaders where you just HAVE to deal with possible excessive expectations (recs if there just AREN'T ragers to deal with), but I've also had no problems with SOMEONE finding me if I plug away at it.

As an aside, I've already been tempted to play a Rager next. I play horrible hours, and am still willing to bet I could get inducted within a reasonable timeframe. I might be convinced to roll one up.
