[TWC] Clan Lock The Group?

[BunnyPoopCereal]

Is it time to lock the group to outsiders unless they show they are from TWC and have the ability to vote? Why or Why not?


FAQ

1) If it is closed, then who will be able to join?
Answer: You must prove you are from the TWC by having an account for one week and have at least posted 25 times

To vote in polls you need to have 25 posts and been registered for at least one week

Well, I suggest that TWC members in the TWC clan/group on Steam should use their TWC username for identification and a [TWC] in front so that they be representin'

Edit : Can we have like a permission to join on steam instead of just join-at-will?

[oldboyhammer]

I think locking the group up would probably be the best option. As long as people who are actually part of TWC can still join up then it shouldn't be too bad to lock it, right? As it is just about anybody can join up.

It would sure cut down on the number of slavering forum-goers out for our blood...

Speaking of haters, I scanned the title of the thread and thought it meant "is it time to lock/ban the TWC clan?"

I swear, I was about to unleash some righteous anger on some poor, unsuspecting fools. Too bad it was a much more reasonable subject...

Also, if its still possible, you should edit the question to read "is it time to close the TWC S2TW group to outsiders?" Right now (if you don't read the OP) it seems like a poll to shut us down! Oh noes~

Yeah, I mean I think everyone on twc.net agrees we are the best clan, but I don't think we should lock it. There is just alot of hate from people who are losing to our greatness.

Does anyone know how to change the tittle of a thread?/??

Does anyone know how to change a forum name? It's embarassing to have someone named 'BunnyPoopCereal' representing the clan.

No it's not , we will throw poop at you for such rudeness and mix something nasty in your sake !!!

click edit, and edit again.

Should close it , i bet many outsiders joined us.Also many ppl don't use acronym , some discipline wouldn't hurt.

[Kennit]

I'd say yes, but then I'd have to prove it and I dont want to

[Generalissimo]

Oops I clicked "no" instead of "yes". Yeah I think that it needs to be closed for all non-TWC people.

[Ravenclaw2099]

I vote yes, I mean we have more than enough to dominate MP as it stands, which seems to be the case. Plus maybe it'll will help other clans recruit members so that the whole "superior numbers" argument can be put to rest and perhaps create some balance in the tiers.

Not that I mind us being rulers of all lol, but hey i don't mind some competition either. And maybe it will help the game attract more players in that regard too??
Any future members should be proven TWC members like mentioned above.

It doesn't make much sense to limit the group for new entries if there isn't also some way to throw people out again.
Has anyone given an actual reason as to why the group should be closed in the first place?

As I have said it on group page:

I'd be shocked if 1/6 of people in this clan are actual TWC members. I'm not sure what would be the point of locking up at this point though... TWC people are long past the "marginal minority" phase. Might as well be the most massive S2 clan, bar none. Think of it as ahigaru stack spam

Like it or not, we owe a good deal of our success in a clan campaign to the pure number of members we've attracted(which is, amusingly, is likely a result of our initial recruitment/game successes - a snowball effect of sorts). With that in mind, I feel that we should stick to our spam-tastic origins.
Personally, I would want to see how gigantic we can become, don't you? (1k+ fingers crossed)

If we were to be a closed group, we should have done it much sooner, now it's more of a delayed knee-jerk reaction. We are what we are.

The clan is now officially locked

I think that we've definitely grown beyond what I initially expected and I have to declare my frustration at not initially realizing that this could be the case

If anyone has any suggestions on maybe how to counteract non-TWC members having joined the clan i'm all ears I have a solution in mind but I feel it may be a bit extreme

There is no other way.

Or declare an amnesty for those already in and just create a recruitment rubric for future members? A good number of people actually started posting on here because of joining the clan(Like me!) and determining who should be kicked and not would be a logistical nightmare and an extreme solution would be to disband and reform but that'd be way to extreme.

Anyway locking now wouldnt hurt anything, people would just have to be active on these forums not a big deal really.

why??????

even those who are here on these forums... who do play SH2 regularly... and who have contributed to the clan's progress still have a hard time even 'talking/chat'n with one another' on the chat tab in the lobby.

thus since this clan is more of a clan of individuals... why not keep it open
