Invite or Open Recruiting

**IceBlade** · 08-31-2006, 01:39 AM

Yeah I was just thinking. Would it be possible to set some sort of thing where division leaders could choose whether to have open or closed recruiting on the site. Like put a password or something on roster sign up?

You could say it's closed invite, but still allow applications. You never know when a good player might apply and there's always room for a skilled gamer.
I guess I could also say, leave it to open recruiting, but be very strict on letting people in.

Yeah Cyb but the problem is that we have for example 2 people signup random and don't play and much to young like 11 years old and when its open they don't fill in that nice App. form that we love right now :)

Well it could be open, but like I said be strict and not let just anyone in.
FA used to be a bit hard to get into, you'd get a tryout and if you weren't good enough you didn't get an open door.

I'm not really sure what you mean by open/closed on the site. Do you want the signup form passworded? Or what?

The problem whas we had 5 noobs in the week lol random visit the Fa website but also signup on AA then we send every new recruit e-mails what to do how to work bla bla but we almost never get a respons.
So it takes a lot of time u put in the new recruit to contact him and help him and after 3 day's they never play our they don't now how to work,so when you close that with a pass our something like that we use that sweet App.form and when he is aprooved we can set him up on Fa website with the profile.
I whas thinking we have all info. from the App.from so we create a profile for this new recruit and send him a e-mail> >welcome this is youre login name: killer
and password is fallen go to member setup to change youre pass ,and we looking forward to play with you,good luck.If u have quistions feel free to ask<<
Nice example is Raven he is aprooved and then he get his profile on FA,i hope this make sence and clear things up.

thats a good idea nappy

Yeah so basically recruits have to go through the application process before even being allowed to sign up.

I think you should invite ppl to openly recruit if you make it all leetzor ppl won't even want to join. I would say open the doors to the masses and then make your teams and what not. I would never turn someone away because you think they suck they might have 20 leet ass friends. You can let them be ion the division but that doesn't mean they will match. I say the more the merrier. that is just me though I have had clans shut the door in my face for BF2 and watched them fall apart and turn to non-exsistant. I played in the RvS division for a long time and never matched for like a year until I got good enough. Anyway my 2 cents on it. Don't be so leet you make ppl not want to join in the Fun that is FA. They might also be uber at other games but we would never Know. anyway that is all.

I know what you're saying Rath and I do agree. That's how the AA Division started. I'm just saying it would be great if the division leaders could enable or disable open recruiting. Because at this point in the AA division we are accepting only skilled players so we don't want noobs joining. Granted most of the AA division were all noobs at one point and have built their skill while they were here. But now they're skilled and now we need to bring in good players. And another thing. When we ask good players to join they look and see all these noobs and are like "No thanks."
