Wanted: Super Group

I think I'm coming to the end of my grieving period for my super group on Protector. They were the best, and I mean that literally. But, like a carelessly-stacked Jenga tower, once a couple key pieces were removed, the whole thing came tumbling down. From here we went to my forming my own group, which lasted all of 5 minutes, mainly because all our schedules were incompatible. I was psyched about it, but I recognize why it failed.

So here I am back at square one. I'm getting really tired of soloing, and I refuse to lower myself to joining pickup groups (which I consider akin to picking up a hooker in Brazil.... chances are you're going to regret it and you'll be left with some lasting scars that only 15cc's of penicilin are going to wash out of you). I want .....nay, need.... a suitable super group to throw in with. I don't plan to change my play style or schedule and, without sounding like a prima-donna, I don't think I should have to. There's so many groups packed into those 11 servers that surely there's one taylored to my personal wants. So here it is. Let me lay out my ideal super group for you. If anyone out there who stumbles across this knows of the perfect group for me, for the love of God, shoot a flaming arrow my way!

1. I'd like to be a part of a group that I can contribute to but who won't feel a loss if I'm not around for several days. My schedule is spuratic at best. Sometimes I'll put in a couple hours, several nights in a row, and sometimes it's 3 or 4 days between logons. It just depends on my mood and workload. This would mean a fairly large group, many of whom are on at all hours of the day and night and who'd welcome my participation when I can be on.
2. I need a moderately mature, fun loving bunch who aren't a bunch of competative nimrods who're only interested in how fast they can get to the next level (or worse, how fast I can get to the next level).
3. Similarly, I think I'd enjoy some light roleplaying. I don't want to spend my nights pounding out angst-ridden prose while standing under the statue of Atlas instead of going on missions, but it'd be nice to have a group who'd appreciate the character bits, that many of my toons lend themselves to, during missions.
4. I got no intention of saddling any of my current characters with a group "uniform." I spend a lot of time on character concept, and part of that is the look. About all I'm willing to do in that department is shift to some team colors, if possible, whenever I'm running with the group. On the other hand, I might not mind creating a character from scratch to fit in with a group's theme if it's a cool one. There's a lot of themed groups out there.... Some are even pretty cool.
5. I've got characters spread all across City of Heroes. Server is no object.
6. I'm here to play the game, not beat the game. If your first reaction was "what's the difference," move on.

What I bring to the table:Honestly, I think I'm an asset to a group.
• I'm a careful player with good instincts and the wellbeing of my team always foremost in mind. (I think the abreviated form of that sentence is, "I'm not reckless.")
• I have a good sense of humor (as illustrated by most of my character concepts), but I can play seriously even amidst my own personal silliness and merry-making.
• I know my play style and I'm good with my toons. While I'm capable of team-tanking, I'm not particularly good at it. I'm better as a scrapper. Where I perform best is in a supporting role such as with a blaster, controller, or defender. (This is all a little relative though, since I build characters by concept first and foremost, not based on what my role in the team is going to be.)
• I'm an artist and graphic designer by trade. What's that have to do with anything? I'm good at base design and decorating. I've also helped put together group web sites in the past and cranked out pretty sweet graphics for the team. (Logo for my last super group. And for my own ill-fated 1920's themed group.)
• I've been outside the walls of Paragon City and have photographic proof of what's out there.

As the saying goes, "If interested, please send tell."
