No.
The best way to integrate players into the server community is to do so via crews. I’ve been on here a while now, and I can agree wholeheartedly with Paul here, in that if new players don’t join a crew fast, they go.
Many people will join a crew ‘not knowing what it’s about’, because the entire point about joining is about new experiences and friends. Its by no means ‘unfair’ to a new person, because its what they want; to be part of a community, and to explore the history and ethos of their new crew.
having crews snatching up new players.
launched into the cesspit
the reprecussions of the descision they make.
This is not a personal hate post directed towards crews who do this but I am just saying that it needs to stop.
It does honestly come across as a bit of a hate post. Cesspit is not the word I’d use to describe our thriving community, nor would I argue that joining it, or a crew for that matter, comes with numerous repercussions. Not every deckie is a noob, and some crews recognise that; whether they choose to exploit that by recruiting an individual is entirely their choice.
People should be allowed to recruit deckies, and deckies should be allowed to join crews. Simple.
