Imperfect alts are only used for calling out or trolling specific members of the organization. |

I had written an extensive post, but when I submitted it it bugged and reverted the text to a prior draft, so a much more succinct answer:
I know not everyone, or even necessarily the majority, of IMPs members are megalomaniacs. With that said, you can't say that starting a junior corp doesn't feed the senior corps' egos. The humiliation stems from some players feeling a need for validation from what boils down to just another member of the community. They clamber to impress the gatekeeper who's post exists solely because of an idolization based on some empty hierarchy. The name IMPSwarm even implicitly suggests a zerg nature, that a "chosen few" can rise above to attain true legendary status. The sycophants gobble it up.
The rest was tangential and rambling so perhaps it's all well that it got cut.

Nah brah, I've never had a nerdy LARP chick and don't plan to as I doubt they compare to the surfer chicks we've got. I'll leave the weeabos/vampires/gamer gurlz to you. Also, next time I promise to write a "See Spot Run" type translation just for you big guy. I'll even write it in bold so you can print it out and color it in. |

I believe you when you say YOU don't look down on them. I have it on good authority that you're an alright guy. I doubt that a feeling devoid of superiority is shared by EVERY one of your clan members. |

Did anybody else notice it took 5 pages for someone to get butthurt and start an argument? I thought something seemed off. So to the Imp alt that started this thread I retract my earlier praise. You have completely failed at IMPthreading.
If somebody hasn't called somebody else gay by the second page then you're doing it wrong. And where's Zitro telling someone to "get good"? What the hell is going on here?! |

IMPSwarm is the general army and not Imperfects. The reason it's Imperfects recruiting is that you get the same leadership and that appeals to certain people. You can join if you want sota pop always need a balance of vets and noobs to make the dust world go round. |

I can understand that viewpoint. I'm sure there are some people in every organization who are like that. I dont feel its epidemic by any stretch though.
However if someone was going to take a stance like that and it was negative or counterproductive to the corporation as a whole or produced negative results or brought other corp members down thus hurting performance and teamwork. I am fairly certain most members would be against that IMO. As it would cut into our bottom line eventually and take away from the fun of it. However If someone has a ego and plays well, they deserve a slap on the back and I dont hold it against them if they want to showboat. I mean if they have earned it they have earned it, and im sure when they get blown out of the water they get a good ribbing more so then anyone else. I dont mind a little bit of overconfidence from people, its good fun and it adds some personality to what might otherwise be a run of the mill dry process of grinding sp and waiting for something interesting to finally happen, and in dust that can take awhile .
As for interaction between IMPSwarm and the imperfects I certainly would not be ok if people where using them as some sort of kicking boy or where speaking down to them for some sort of inflated sense of self worth. But as i stated that is not the case and its more of a free interaction between members not some sort of forced hazing :P (not yet anyway ) lol jk Of all the guys I have worked with I would say they are not spiteful or vindictive even if they do enjoy a good argument At least not off the battlefield anyway, on the battlefield might be a different story. (dam tankers!!!) lol |
