Basicallly I think we need to expand our horizons. I want to compare us to the Hun clan (before it is totally gone) and King clan to explain what I would like to do.
The Hun clan is out ot get simply good, or as they say the 'best' mini cb players. Over in Kings, clan members are a carbon copy of arthur's ideals. You dont necessarily have to be the best player, but as long as you listen to Arthur's rules you are ok to stay.
Saint clan is middle ground in my opinion. We have a Mix of players, some good, and some not so good. We also have a wide and diversified range of personalities, some outspoken. some very cool-headed. I think that is what makes us unique in that It will be challenging to make not so good players better and then ultimately the best, and also to convert some of our truly black sheep into real 'Saints' (lol).
I dont think we should have a limit to our membership.I would like nothing more than to go into a room and have at least three to four mini cb games being played involving at least 4 saints in each game kicking arse and taking names
So I have several things I think we should do:
1) Recruit more. Offer membership to more people. The main thing is not how they play or their personality. The main obstacle to any intial membership is whether they cheat or not. That is the one thing that we cannot tolerate. If we bring in a cheater,we have problems. Everything else can be worked on.
2) I would like to assimilate some of the smaller clans. (like the BDC's, TUW, and some other foreign clan names.) I think Saladin would be a good mark man for that because he knows some of the leaders of those smaller clans. There has to be something we can offer that will convince someone like PJ to come in and bring a few members with him. Maybe a sub-section of saints i dunno. Although I would be hard pressed to make sure that we dont get any of their cheaters or droppers.
3) Advertise for recruit. If you host a game try to put our web site in Parameters, so people can come to forum and sign up. This will make it easier for them to join. I think we should trade banners with all these other clans including the aox clan, 13dc's, and huns(my policy has changed on that since they re dting out, we need to get those users logged on over here).
4) Finally my new map will be complete soon and kick off a new wave of MINI cb games that will bear the Saint flag. This too will help more interested in joining clan.
As you know there are no tryouts, the interested player simply changes name, and after some type of ok from any Gold Saint member (yes that means you too Pure) that person can be a Saint.
Let me know what you think and what we need to modify concerning this
