But, if all the bots take this mindset, we won't see more AWC members, as they'll all be waiting.

Honestly, I'd rather see the AWC focus more on being active on the boards here, before they focus on working on getting their off site forum active. If you get a bunch of unactive people from here, to go to another site, what makes you think they'd be active there?

Who runs the AWC? and do they post here?

Currently, Optimus Prime007, and I think you'll find it's a bit hard to post often while on deployment

While it's a noble endevor to serve ones nation, why are people defensive for him? AC didn't know, since they can't get into Iacon, where it was discussed.

JOIN THE MISSIONS!!!

AS for you, the answer remains the same as usual, NO

Please tell me you're just being an arse to Rage, and not being one of those "I'm not going to join the missions because _" autobots. Cause if that's the case, then Rage suddenly becomes a more appealing ally than you.

I do agree with your first point, I simply meant we could use AC, who posts here regularly, in the AWC. I wasn't having a go at AC with the note about OP007, I was simply letting him know (as I am aware of the new autobots' Iacon access issue), so I apologise if it came off as tho I was having a go at him. And on your last note, yeah, it was just a Rage Bot thing. I' don't fight in the arena unless I'm messing around with low level configs. Had someone suggested what he did (minus the oversized font), I wouldn't have quoted it.

Sometimes text can be infered differently than intended. Honestly though, Rage probably ranks higher than me on the "who's a better autobot" scale now, as I'm hardly playing. However, I'm more awesome and have been sig quoted more than he ever will be.

Wouldn't want Burn to jump to the conclusion we're calling Rage an autobot saviour now, would we?

Time is a great teacher, but unfortunately it kills all its pupils and It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives. It's frustrating when you know all the answers, but nobody bothers to ask you the questions.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled broadcast and you may continue fighting the Heavy Metal War.

I don't mind people going to other sites to talk stuff.

But it's when they go to another site to discuss HMW stuff that irks me. As far as i'm concerned it's a slap in the face to Seibertron.com, to Ryan, and to the HMW Staff.

Because as i've always said, if there's something that can be done to improve the forums and even the game (without requiring programming) then speak up so we can do something about. Don't go running to another forum because you want to make the rules on how to play.

Well i'm thinking now that i've kicked Sluman to the curb and replaced him with AC, I might have to put in my sig who the Autobot Savior of the Week is.

With the following disclaimer.

The following Commanders will never be regarded as the Autobot Savior for reasons only Burn knows.
• Absolute Zero
• steve2275
• The {Rage Bot}
• alldarker

burn works in mysterious ways

I get why Optimus Prime007 is not here and salute him for what he does. Call me crazy tho, but isn't it a bit daft to have a leader that is never around? Who leads in his absence? I couldn't tell you because you guys rarely post in these forums and I don't have access to Iacon. Is Iacon active?

As for why I would wait to join, well there is no reason for me to join. All the questions and help I have needed have been answered here in HMWGD and oddly enough, more often then not, by Decepticons. If the AWC is going to flourish you guys need to make a positive presence here in the forums. Heck even the US Armed Forces advertise

Yeah! Where are the other Mods anyway?

Aerialbot Commander wrote: Is Iacon active?

Good question. Let's say it depends on your point of view

I guess we can talk about the AWC all day long, but in the end will we change peoples' opinions? Probably not. As with yourself, people won't join something if they don't see a reason for it, it's up to them (not sure about the leadership thing either). If memory is correct, we're not actually allowed to 'advertise' clans here. And yeah, most questions asked here will probably be answered by cons, as most autobots don't post here. But yeah, you knew that

While I am part of the AWC, I do agree with Burn and AZ about using the forums here on this site for HMW related talk, rather than an offsite forum.
