DAoC Leadership Surveys
|
These people represent a fraction of the great DAoC leaders.
However, having played extensively on four servers, I feel these
people do represent some of the very best. I also believe their
answers apply to DAoC, OF, NF, other games like WoW, and sometimes to
RL. Leadership Survey Summary (with links and comments)
