There's a section on the RSI forum where pilots looking for an Organisation can post stating what it is they're looking for in an Org. Having read a few it's obvious that there are some that, on the face of it, could be a good DMW fit.

There's also a section where Orgs can post information about themselves including as much detail about their structure, ethos etc. as possible.

It would make it much easier to recruit if we could point potential recruits from the former to the latter :)

So you know what's coming next ... :)

Can we quickly put together some words to act as an advertisement for our gaming community that presses the right buttons for potential recruits to not only Star Citizen but our other sections too?

I'm happy to help if needed and will start by listing some bullet points that could go towards the draft.

  • Teamwork
  • Mature attitude
  • Fair play
  • Community
  • No lone wolves
  • Skill level unimportant
  • Team mates become friends
  • Social - Teamspeak, LANs
  • Own servers
  • Casual - Real life before gaming

Thanks OB, I've not had time to put anything up yet, so the more help the merrier!   I'll bump up your rights on the RSI website so you can add stuff on the webpage too.

It may be worth mentioning that it isn't the goal but the journey to reach the goal that is important.

A post has been made on the RSI forum detailing what we want to achieve in SC. It would help to bump it every few days (with a meaningful reply please - even if if it's a bit contrived :flirty: )

Iv'e been looking at some of the other Orgs. They all look like they bump their threads frequently and often just copying the previous message. It's going to be hard/inpossible to keep it close to the front.

Some Orgs have even been running competitions and gifting Ships as prizes. I'll take another look tonight and list some ideas we might want to try.

Just added Apocalypse (Reverb) to the org.   One of your contacts Toby (he's from down your way).

With the numbers we've got we've easily achieved critical mass for the sorts of things we want to achieve as an Org. As there is a real risk of being thwarted by a ne're-do-well (joining us and running off with our loot etc.) should we consider abandoning attempts to recruit strangers from within the RSI forums?

Might well be Oldie.   We might want to consider growth via another route, such as via an Alliance.   I have been looking at a few over the past couple of days and thinking that it might serve us well to start thinking about this to provide us with some collective protection and advantage.   We'd not necessarily need to grow ourselves (although more quality members is always good), but an alliance does give us a little more standing.

An example of an alliance might be ReddFaction:

Any thoughts on this?
