That is why I wanted to swing more toward the 'Spur of the moment' idea. When a crowd of very cold and very pissed off people are being given a speech from someone they already hate then all it can take is someone to throw an empty bottle at the podium. I was thinking far less political than we seem to have swung. But all are valid points that deffinatly need addressing. Maybe it should aim more at learning what the people want and then exicuting it in the right situations to get the desiered result. Talking could be entierly based on a chosen topic that when near people - your character will attempt to speak about thus causing an effect. Topics could span from "Follow me." to "Bad mouthing the opposition." So it would become important to gather information before attempting anything, adding to the stratergy.

Original post by liquiddark Not to derail the topic, but Midas, your presentation herein is a bit rude. It's usual to avoid thread titles that are flame-bait, and it's usual to avoid saying things like "enlighten you as to the way the world works". No offense intended, just hoping this helps raise the level of discourse a little.

Oh yes sorry about that everyone, the thread title was never ment to start a flame war. Evidentaly puns are out - you can't exactly hear tone through text heh heh... The enlighten thing was a bit uncalled for too, I just wasn't expecting "...if you have some brilliant, revolutionary idea to solve this, please enlighten us." as a response to my first post ever so I over reacted a bit. Sorry about all that.
