Teams
When creating a Team for a mission, PVP, RP etc, we should not exclude lower ranks/or less known faces from the Team, we want everyone to have a good time, not just a core of people always teaming up.

- This is best solved by voicing your need for a team on Ventrilo or the Fleet chat and inviting the first persons that respond.
- If more people than a full team want to participate, create a second group etc.
- Once a team is set up, do not kick a person from the team (because your "best buddy" showed up, etc) ask if anyone is interested in leaving the team, if not, leave the team yourself.
- Loot options should be set to uncommon/rare need or greed. Agree before start of play if you should hit Need or Greed on items you want. Pass on items you don't need.
