 So I've been pondering about it and suggesting this for awhile, but now that we will most likely be going to 100+, I'd like to market this more.

I think that a new system where we have 100+ TG, and 105+ to be full member will be the most beneficial and equal trade off. This way the noobs can still be in the clan, and we can still have a high combat average and higher req to join that is appealing to the higher levels and experienced warrers.

Of course in doing this we would have to extend the trial period by what...2 weeks maybe? Not a big deal. And I guess we'd have to scrap trial Guardian altogether but I think it would be for the best. There would also be an activity requirement to fulfill for the TG's.

There are also otehr things we'd need, like FA managers, a seperate FA list, etc etc, but it is all easily worked out. (well, sorta neko2.gif )

So that's about it, please give this some serious thought, I think this would be WAY better than 100+ reqs.

Discuss!

 I agree with Kyle, the trial guardian system atm is really good and I don't think it needs this.
Plus 5 cmb levels even at lvl 100 is quite a lot for a trial period....

If they really want in, they can do it (I mean if we know tey're trying hard we can obviously be a little lenient with them, cause hell we're lenient with some trials that aren't even trying)

edit: and read my reply to kyle about the TG thing.

 WG has always gone against the Future Applicant system as there are pro's and con's to both. I could be mistaken but I believe it was because back when RAW was active and meant something, we would be able to add 'Trial Guardians' to our memberlist and have them participate as technically they were full members of the clan (even though they were going through a trial period)

I wouldn't mind a FA system but I doubt we will ever get one.

Now back to the good part!

 Also if we do the FA thing, that just makes us like any other clan.
We're unique in the trial guardian thing.

I changed it to where we keep the trial system but it's still 100+ for TG and 105+ for full member.

 I think it'd be a bad idea to implement something like this. It seems to me the major selling point of WG is that it has a great community, and it would be backwards to send lower levelled newcomers the message that they are lesser members because of their combat level.

They're not lesser members...we would still have the Trial system, just wi ht105+ for full member, not much change.

 I know for sure that I wouldn't be able to make 5 combat levels in a month, but that is me. ohmy.gif

Lower to stakes to 2 or 3, and/or increase the trial guardian requirement and then I would agree a bit more with what you are proposing.

Creating a FA system would not make us unique. If levels were to change, then yeah, I think it would be better. But remember we had the system in the past where 102 was required for graduation and you only had to be 100 to apply.

If you read my post I suggested an extended trial period by 2-4 weeks neko2.gif.

 It would make it like an FA system, which is NOT what we want.

We had it before with a shorter trial period and lower reqs, what's the difference besides what I stated?

 It wouldn't be hard to do this. Maybe like 100 to intro, 102 to App, 105 to graduate, though?

So in 3 days people are expected to get 2 combat levels if they intro at 100?
There shouldn't be a requirement to intro.
