Why wouldn't the other members have come out to help their team mates? Do we have to strat in "I will help my friends and team mates if they get attacked" everytime now?

I will take it a step further and say some attacks and segments should be written that make your character look vulnerable/flawed/capable of being thumped on.

Warfare not to long ago I wrote and submitted a seg where Bourbon got attacked by Betsy in retaliation because it furthered the story.

To take it a step further, I did call someone's inaction during an attack in an RP this past cycle, but that was in response to their bringing it up. I can see how it gets sticky in some places, but it's also to be commended that someone made material for a show. The logic of what occured with Duke is up in the air, and we can argle-bargle it all we want, but we shouldn't ignore there's some sort of intrigue revolving around the Hart Title, even if it's dismissed as a Duke imposter getting attacked.

Do the BOB attacks make everyone else look weak or dumb? No. It makes the members of BOB look like a bunch of heels. It's definitely not on our itinerary to go out on every card and just jump whomever, you assume we have enough time, focus, or work ethic for that (even if we wanted to we're too lazy irl). The key is the only members of BOB that did attack people were Fury, TK, Bourbon, and Oswald, the team for War Games.

I say this running a character that was attacked 3 separate times at the last PPV. It's kind of silly none of the attacking parties coordinated together from a pure logic stance, but it is what it is. It didn't take a microscope for whomever was putting the card together to notice it, there could have been something added or done to make it a little more sensible perhaps, but it's the nature of the game that it happened the way it did. It's called compromise. If 3 people submit segments for the end of the show, they all get to run, and they all equally get to be unhappy they happened along with everyone else's stuff.
