For the freeloaders

Attention freeloaders:

If you come with us to a factory and do not participate at all, BEWARE. We will not toon you up. I repeat: WE WILL NOT TOON YOU UP. I do not tolerate toons that are looking for a free ride, that just stand there doing nothing and wait until the toons that ARE fighting the cogs kill them off, or leave a cog standing, and then step in to get credit.

It has happened to me many many times, and I'm sure it's happened to many toons that work hard in the game. One time, a toon that was with us did not do anything at all, and finally stepped in when only the foreman was left. He got credit for basically doing nothing because the other toons and I finished him off, and he PASSED. We worked hard to get credit, and he did absolutely nothing and he got credit. This is unfair and there's no point in playing if you're only for a free ride.

Other times, when the same thing happened, we let the toons die when they stepped in on the final round. We only tooned up the toons who were playing and did not toon the freeloaders. I hope that teaches you freeloaders a lesson. If it hasn't happened to you yet, it will.

I agree with you 100%. I hate it when nOObs come along for the ride. If they aren't going to be a member of the team, might as well not help them-- becuase we all need to help eachother in there.

But...like i said in another post..ppl are cold hearted!!

I SECOND THAT!!!!! START A CLAN AGAINST THAT!!!!! Another idea: Start a Petion(spelling?) about that. Once you get 'bout 50 sigs, send it to disney!
Saying somthing Like: If you don't help out in at least 4 battles in the factory, you don't get any thing from it. Meaning, you need to use at leat 4 gags(if possible) in each battle.

Idea for the CCG fac. escorts about that: Send spies in to investigate on the courses. If they don't help out, they need another factory done when the reach the CCGVP level.

Hi flutterby...

This is a tough call... I have 3 maxed toons, and one getting there. Of those, only one was maxed before factory, but the second was nearly maxed before stepping foot into the factory (before the days of Daisy Garden factory tasks). The last two "grew up" in the factory, so to speak. I loved doing the factory with my maxed friends, but also love doing factory with friends who are not maxed on gags and therefore take the time to play instead of "blast through". If there is one thing that is hard for me about going through with unmaxed toons (besides the possibility of bad teamwork) it's that I never know whether these toons want to work gags, or want me to help them get it over with. To me, it is irritating to want to use drop or squirt and have someone who is maxed on it kill the cog "for" me. But it is also irritating to see a maxed toon not help when I am running low on gags. So... I understand if you are saying a maxed toon passed on every round and it made you upset. But if it is an occassional thing, keep in mind that toon might just be patiently letting you work gags for double credit while being available for tooning up if needed.

As for the OP, I agree. The only time I will toon a freeloader up is if I am working toon up. I call them bullet catchers either way.

Oh, in the factory, I also step on the warehouse switch but don't stomp the goons. That way, when they step into the foreman fight, they need a toon up, and I pass. Takes less time that way.

I've had freeloaders of every single laff point level. From level 15 up to level 110. They come in different shapes, sizes, and species. As for the maxed toons helping out the lower level toons, it's a nice thing to do, but DO SOMETHING. Don't just stand there and look pretty. Same goes for noobs too. Basically, it goes for everyone playing.

I call them cannon fodder! As bad as I feel admitting it though, some times it does help just to have an extra person there to 'eat' cog attacks although I'd rather see the lowbies at least throw some squirting flowers or cupcakes just to get the 'same gag' bonus.

I do agree with you, don't get me wrong but my brother had only made it up to squirt gun and cream pie slice. Still he wanted to try the factory. He could only carry 20 gags at this point, so he simply stayed out of the first few fights so he wouldn't waste his gags and have none for the forman. Still when he joined, his friends would refuse to toon him up and he went sad. So you see, although free loaders deserve to get sad, you can think about this a diffent way somtimes.
