Not even the whole first page of Looking For a Clan on TIF. Those people could be our recruits except everyone is like LOL TIF THEY LIKE DARTH. Instead of ignoring these people and letting them join no name clans shouldn't they be given the chance to join a much better clan in every aspect? I think so and I hope you do too so don't ignore this potential gold mine.

P.S. I can't do it because as a CL I'm not allowed to recruit for my clan.

I definitely think Joe is correct on this, and we should probably make more of an effort with that than competing with all the other clans on RSC.

Would be good to see some members take the initiative to register on tip.it if they have not already and start recruiting there.

We won't say no to recruitment ideas.

Aaaand in a bit, if we do recruit off there, we should move this topic into lvl 2 or 3.

Sorry for the bump on this, but Joe is right. I'll have a tip it challenge soon so register if your not yet.

Tip It has much more of a mature membership it seems too.

Thank you Garrett and Dallar.

is the day you have stopped leading them.

Vaguely but look at the posts of some of those clans trying to recruit. Let's be honest they're no name shit clans that WG could walk all over half asleep so why should they get the members? tface.gif

Three things to note:

When posting on RSC or Tip.It threads, or even RSB threads, check the dates. Some people bump the shit out of threads. For example, I saw 2 threads from over 3 months ago, on the front page. The dates are most important.

Try to see if someone else from WG has talked to the person yet. If they have, then you might not want to talk to them again, unless you know exactly what happened the last time they were talked to. I know I wouldn't think well of a clan that had 4 people trying to recruit me.

Finally, don't just use a pre-formatted post. If you are posting on 20 threads with the pre-formatted post, it doesn't look good. You are not spending the time on each recruit like you could. Sit down and spend 10 minutes on each recruit. Sit and write out a personal response. Or even do the little post and then PM the person via the forum or in-game with your personal message.

I want someone to talk to me person-to-person rather than as if they were desperate.
