RE: my group
Apr 19 2008, 6:48 AM EDT I would look for a group with a clearly defined leadership structure. One COMPETENT leader in charge and a clearly defined chain of command / chain of responsibility below him (or her). Unity is based off a solid command structure. Even a closely knit group of friends will create a command structure. (I have talked about survival scenarios with my friend net-work and even though all are equal, a leader will rise to the top). Be on the look out for the opposite: division or dissention in the ranks. Splits with in the group. Hard feelings and negative statements. Nothing tears a group apart more than a lack of respect for leadership and positioning (violent or non-violent) for who’s in charge. If you find yourself in a group with back-stabbing, complaining, and negativity, it may be time to leave before your own group becomes more dangerous than the Zombie horde. I would rather be alone than in a group like this. Democracy is good, but a good-man with a good-plan is better, as long as his followers believe in his vision and leadership abilities. The worst case scenario is ending up in a group with a leader who leads by the “I’m the biggest and have the biggest gun, so you’ll do what I say”. These leaders are driven to leadership based on their testosterone levels, and not their ability to lead. Also, variety is the spice of life. A diverse group of well skilled people is of course critical. This goes for hunters, mechanics, green-thumbed-sorts, and of course women. Even a thug with B/E skills and hot-wiring has his place. As I see in my group, there are far too many gun-happy x-military types with not enough skills to make a functional group, and it bothers me. Turns out their History and Philosophy majors won’t help out much, besides recording/pondering the events that unfold after Z-day. Do you find this valuable? |

May 16 2008, 10:30 PM EDT I would like to keep the group small, not so many people that have to be watched, and less people to worry about.In my opinion it really dosen't matter if anyone in the group are talented at anything, not being talented might actually help them survive.

RE: my group
May 16 2008, 10:51 PM EDT I would agree with never2prepared. Leadership would be the key to surviving. CHOOSING a leader to follow is also key to suvival. I think a good leader with a good plan will have followers wether they want them or not. Do you find this valuable? |

May 22 2008, 3:03 AM EDT What do you mean 'a black guy because they can run fast'? Black people, white people, yellow people, brown people, there's no physical difference. I don't know what they teach you in grade 5 but there is no physical strength provided by the colour of your skin... 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |

RE: my group
May 24 2008, 2:19 PM EDT The fact that most sprinters are black isn't 'cause black people are faster naturally. It's probably instead down to environmental factors such as a difference in upbringing or culture. Saying that ‘because most sprinters are black means that black people are faster runners’ is like saying that ‘because famous scientists like Einstein are white that white people are smarter’ or that ‘because America has a large number of obese people, Americans are naturally more susceptible to gaining weigh’ regardless of lifestyle. Simply not true. 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |

May 24 2008, 3:29 PM EDT "The fact that most sprinters are black isn't 'cause black people are faster naturally. It's probably instead down to environmental factors such as a difference in upbringing or culture.I didn't say anything about black people being faster naturally, I only posted the video. It was you who made that interpretation about the meaning. Therefore, you have shown that it is easy to make that assumption, so even though the source of the original poster's comment may have been unjustified, it is a very commonly held belief, and probably not meant as a rascist comment as he's only highlighting a trend. I don't want to give the impression that it's okay to make racial stereotypes, only that it's easy to do so. This thread isn't about racial stereotypes, however, it's about zombie survival groups. Certainly, a very fast runner would be excellent to have around, regardless of skin colour. Do you find this valuable? |

RE: my group
May 25 2008, 2:53 AM EDT Dude... You found a video of all-black sprinters. Sure, there's a lot of black sprinters, but you aren't going to get an olympic athlete in your team. Besides, we are all one species. We are all homo sapiens... this 'black people can run faster' thing is racist and stupid. And I'm directing this at residentmagnum, not Phaedrus. It's a really stupid thing to say. End. 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |

RE: my group
May 25 2008, 5:38 PM EDT i guess my group would be the new friends i have made since i moved to mississippi. ideally it would be my old army buddies but they are spread out all over the world so that won't happen. i know my friends will defer to me to make all of the decisions pertaining to survival and combat in a zombied out situation. so that's not a problem and all of my new friends are in shape since we all go to the same mixed martial arts gym. so that puts my group count up to 9 in the core group that is. of course i would bring along other survivors along the way but i wouldn't put the fng's in charge of anything until i learned a little background on them or i see them prove themselves in battle.
