First I want to thank you for this guide. I am very uneasy abotu leading and I tend to be too much of a pushover with the difficult team members.
But I also have to disagree with you here:

directive 1 - Do not ask people who are not flagged lft.
Pre I6 thats exactly what I did. Post I6, I can no longer rely on the flagging. I have seen too many times when I was LFT and the list did not pick it up, when I searched for myself I found that I was noted as not looking for a team. To counter that I began writing LFT in the message space, and to counter my counter the computer began leaving the space blank instead.
I have to assume that COH isn't targeting me personally and that this happens to others as well.
So I can no longer avoid bothering people who truly are not looking. Unless their message indicates this I do send tells-polite ones-to see if certain players are interested in a team.
