Being a Leader

[JumpierPegasus 52]

I've been on the SHL for almost 20 seasons and I can tell you this. That I've never been a "leader", which is an interesting concept for sim leagues, but I guess it makes sense. You need someone in your locker room who is vocal and helpful. But for 20 seasons I'm usually just an "Assistant Captain", which believe me means almost nothing. But now, barely even one season in the VHL and I'm considered a "leader" for Brampton. I've never been an overly active guy who is always talking to people in the locker rooms, or is always trying to start a conversation, so do I force myself to now? I usually only post when necessary, but do I start a conversation to keep new guys interested and active? Heck, when I was a GM on the SHL I hired a guy to do that for me so I didn't have to.

 

I just don't want to force a change on how I operate on forums like this. Are leaders really even that important? Should I feel proud?
