Well, the question is, how many ACTIVE members?

Hmm, they may be a major recruiting source?

First off, our member-count is already on the domain. It has been there for... a while now. And secondly, you're not doing anything until you get approval from the High Council. Doing something like this (greeting a possible ally) is not your job unless authorized to do so. If you found a promising gaming club that shares our interest and want them to become allies, you take it up with the superiors.

Confusion and big messes can start with this; something that I'm not looking forward to.

GE is kinda like SV in terms of current activity (*maybe* like 10-15 active members, mostly HC level).  They inflate their numbers by including everyone who never passed their training (about 275 or so last time I checked) andall the reserves, retired, and the official AWOL (about another 230).  Include the unofficial AWOL count of about 40-50.  Now you have your active number.  Another good way of determining their activity is checking out their IRC channel (#Galactic_Empire on irc.undernet.org) and noting the fact that their leader is never-present.

Our entire member database count is not on the domain, only the most important member count: Active Members.

Nobody even said Swomz couldn't be helpful.  Hell, even he admits to mistakes in the past that could have been handled better.  It was never a referendum on his usefulness that led to some bad blood.

Blah, stick to the topic and take your blind pathological sickness elsewhere.  It helps nobody and angers a few and is very damn disrespectful all at the same time.

As for recruiting, Cos said it best.  If you have a ripe target of opportunity, take it up with sk8guy.  If he doesn't answer, tug the coattail of an HC member before they get away.

So want cant recruit from them? What if we got a few of them to join, then it might be easier to get them to ally.

so you are saying that trying to get people to stop hating a member is patholgical sickness....ok then sir...

i assume by pathological you are reffering to pathos...

pathological- pertaining to pathology

pathology- the branch of medical science that deals with the orgin, nature, causes, and development of disease

The thought of recruiting GE members is a nice one, but doubtful to happen.  Both GE and SV members that are left and are active are extrremely devoted to their clubs.  The chances of getting some of them to join are extremely slim.  You might have luck recruiting new members of SV (Wouldn't try it since their commanders greatly dislike that and have lots of friends), but the GE is left with mostly members that have been there for 2+ years.

And Blah, I messed up a lot and deserve what I get for the most part.  Only some of it is unwarranted.

I think most people don't really hate you now, but the hatred has become such a VE tradition that most are loath to give it up.

We don't allow other clubs to actively recruit from our member list.  Therefore, we are not going to support this type of activity when we condone recruiting from our own ranks.

Granted, members do join other clubs.  But it is usually that particular member's choice to join another organization.

However, if you know someone in another organization (ie. are friends with them), then you can try to recruit them.  It's quite a bit harder to recruit someone you don't know in another organization and not get reported for doing so.  Other organizations will come to us to report any recruitment activity within their club from our own.

As a side note, if anyone approaches you from another organization to try to recruit you and you don't know them, let your commander know.  We will then contact the other club about this infraction.

*picks up megaphone* ok everyone, i am going to stop defending swomz now.
*puts it down*

i agree that recruiting from other clubs is both a bad thing to do and non-realisitc. that is not my intent. my intent is to get sky8guy to get ambassadoring.
