More I7 bits – TF Accolade and Invite Control

From the CoH LJ:

I got the Task Force Commander accolade presumably for having been on the default 6 TFs. It gives +5% to HP and access to Shoulder Epaulets, which I couldn’t find at Icon. I couldn’t really find much else new (I was really looking forward to some of the futuristic stuff I saw in screenshots) aside from some Plant and Robot stuff.

Not so much into the Epaulets, but, damn, nice to get another accodade (and another 5% HP boost).

There’s a “not accepting invites” option under the team-seeking window.

Praise Allah.
Actually, that needs a bit of refinement. Like, “Not accepting invites outside of SG” or “Not accepting invites outside of Coaltion” or “Not accepting invites outside of Friends” or something. That’s assuming that this is an actual control (blocking invites) vs. just another flag (that people ignore).
No, really — I was in the rare position the other day of running a PUG. I looked in the Hollows for potential members (since that’s where I was) and every single person except one was running with “Not seeking a Team” — even though there was one person, right there, broadcasting “Lvl 9 Tanker LFT!” It’s no wonder people ignore those little flags. (And, let’s face it — do even users of those flags make use of the fine tuning, i.e., “Seeking Patrol” vs “Seeking Task Force” etc.?).
I’d love to be able to easily limit the folks who could send me invites. If nothing else though, if this is an actual control not just a flag, it will encourage pre-invite tells.
