Preventing a failraid
Don't rely on others to do to the raid for you
99% percent of raids fail because everyone expects someone else to do the work for them. When it comes to raiding you truly get out what you put in. Do you want to see that raid completed successfully? then your going to have to work for it. don't just rely on someone else to do the work for you. Raiding is a hard job/task.
Dealing with Demoralization Coal
Demoralizers are people who want nothing more than for the raid to fail. they do this by posting false stuff to make others falsely believe a raid is impossible. Remember that these de moralizers posted the same coal when we raided The Coffin of Andy and Leyley and Revsaysdesu saying it was impossible and to "give up now". And yet every time we succeeded. If you encounter a bunch of demoralization coal here are some steps to deal with it.
Remind raiders that these people have no interest in this raid and want us to fail
Remember that these people want this raid to fail. Giving them what they want is giving the side your fighting against the key to victory. Agreeing with de moralizers is agreeing with the enemy and saying "im a massive faggot who supports jews"
Tell raiders to ignore them and to continue on.
Another great way to deal with them is to call out their bullshit. Dont sound to seething but just point out there obvious attempts to demoralize the teens in the thread
Post stuff to motivate teens in retaliation. Remind them that we have dealt with bigger and worse threats that seemed impossible
The title says it all.
Remember that as a raider it is important to remember that doing your part isnt just about contributing to the raid. But also keeping other raiders morale high, calling out demoralization coal, preventing infighting and also posting updates and keeping others informed
Posting updates/summarizes of a raid thread
When a raid gets popular/active there can be thousands of posts. this can make it daunting for new teens that want to join in on the raid. No one wants to read 1000s of words for something they dont even know well succeed. Posting short summaries of a raids progress can save newteens hours and make it less daunting for them. Make sure to put an attention grabbing image so it gets the newteens attentions
Keeping morale high
Remember that alot of raids fail because teens fall into a cycle of "this is impossiable" or "no one is viewing this thread". It is your duty as a raider to keep there Morales high otherwise failure is imment
Post updates and progress Be active in the thread
If you have found a lead then POST IT in the thread. Don't just sit there and wait. even if you dont have anything to post just post something in there anyways. it could be a useless update or a simple "hi". Whatever it is it shows that the thread still has people active in it. Do remember that snitches do view threads and sometimes it might be best to withhold information if you believe that a snitch could use it to ruin the fun
Prevent infighting
There may be times where arguments break out and people start to split up. in these times its important to defuse the situation and remind them that there causing the raid to turn into a failraid. Sometimes you have to put aside your awful differences in order to work together to succeed.
