That means if I find enough posters to agree with me, I can kill the B-team without consulting with you?
Ok, here's the difference. The PSI-Unit was created and then tossed towards the rest of us with TTT going, "What's the PSI-Unit doing in all this? Why isn't anyone writing the PSI-Unit?" This rapidly became aggravating for everyone involved. They were TTT's characters, and he was angry with us because we weren't writing them.
Pretty much everyone was pissed about this, and TTT was made aware that they would be killed in the story. It was the group's way of saying "stop bitching at us for not writing these characters that you just threw out at us and expected us to write and got mad when we didn't."
The B Team was introduced by the doctor and I as nothing more than a fun little distraction while we waited for the story to move along. And we'd like to keep it exactly that, a fun little distraction. We're not pushing other people to write them. We're not shoving them down everyone else's throats, demanding to know why they're not being written. If people want to write them, let us know what you've got in mind, and we'll work something out. We just ask that people don't start adding members to the group at random. We want to keep them small, not to make them elite but to keep it a fun, simple little thing and because the chemistry works as it is.
It's hardly a double standard. Those are two completely different situations.
