thx for your response OP.
i stated that Gunny was/is head of the SP due to the fact that hes the most experienced, longest serving and most active SP here and as such should, imo, take an authoritive stance over the rest of the SP.... with regard to training them and leading and if neccassary act as a 3rd party within mediations.
at least, up until recently, everyone on the server would listen to him in his SP role more so than the more "junior" SP.
when i was SP i allways held Gunny in that light out of earned respect, as no doubt others do too.
its not a criticism of my or others role in thier SP duties..we do/did our jobs to the best of our ability, theres no reason to belittle those SP that think the same way.
i dont think Gunny is taking an innitiative here OP, i think hes just generaly pissed off with the constant (and i mean constant) abuse and harrassment from other players.
and please believe me when i say i DO understand, its much the same reason why i gave up my SP role. although until recently had never had a bounty placed on me and pushed quite so hard^^
his clan and especially himself are being targetted through his actions as SP as ppl cant/wont differentiate the roles.
