I vaguely remember Scrubdreddit getting a combined 36 kills and 109 deaths vs UA, with a grand total of one Scrubdreddit player going positive... at 10-8. Perhaps your focus should be on recruiting non-bads instead of making poor analogies on the forum. I find it hilarious that in the roughly 2,000 members between Scrubdreddit and Planewbtary Response Organization, they can't find 8 guys capable of giving even the most average UA player a challenge.
We let our newbros fight corp battles. Those little 8v8 circle jerk have absolutely zero bearing on the long term structure of the game. Have fun constantly defending your one or two districts when the game is actually finished... assuming your corp still exist by then. |

Have fun constantly defending your one or two districts when the game is actually finished... assuming your corp still exist by then. no one really expects the game to stay 8v8 but CCP has also confirmed it wont be a zerg game as well they dont want the smaller guy to not be able to hold something. some food for thought for the mass recruiting corps out there. Not necessarily TEST since they got their own little community to recruit from which tbh is nice, this more for the ppl who spam mails or mass recruit in local nothing wrong with being big but make sure the ppl u got are actually useful, and training wise if the ppl training the "newbies" are bad then what sort of results ppl expect to get? more food for thought.
No, you are correct, this is why our newbros fight in corp battles. We have YET to fight a corp battle in which we didn't have AT LEAST one guy who had been er BEEN IN the a corp battle before, and generally at least half the guys in a given corp battle could very well be considered "newbies" to the game in general.
You guys do what you do, and you do it well. We will continue to do what we do, and we will just have to wait and see who ended up making the better choices about how their time was spent.
That being said, what YOU guys do and what UA do aren't really the same thing as far as I can tell . the differences are quite clear in skill, execution, metagame, etc. They are an average group of average guys doing average things in an average way.
That being said, I did edit my original post to be a bit less inflammatory, but since you managed to quote it in the short minute and a half time span that it existed, I'll stand by the statement. There will surely be a balance between zerging and being overly effective with a small meta-game ******** force. Subdreddit is aiming to be an effectively balanced force that sits hopefully within that balance. |

Have fun constantly defending your one or two districts when the game is actually finished... assuming your corp still exist by then. Here's a little free tip: put your worst/newest players with the least SP and lowest gear possible into corp battles instead of trying to stroke your egos by stacking your best talent with the SP and best gear into them. In the long run your baseline performance is going to have a much bigger impact on your ability to be an effective corp than simply having a few squads of elite players and a stable of inexperienced players left to try and do all the heavy lifting. As it stands, you guys are an average sized corp with an average stable of players at the top end, and you're going to end up getting buried in the noise of average corps with average players playing make believe that they're anything other than average. I'm sure your lack of any defining characteristics as a corp will continue to slowly trickle in average talent at a snails pace to match the average talent you already have, but I'm not convinced that being great at nothing is the best strategy for the long term survival of a corp. I be interested to see if you somehow manage to prove me wrong, but I ain't gonna hold my breath. D'awww, I think I hurted his feewings. That's so precious.
Irony at it's finest. The truth hurts, but go ahead and hide behind your reflexively defensive quips, I can't really blame you. I mean, it's not like I was expecting you to have anything of substance to say in response.

You're over there writing essays because I mocked your corp a bit... and I'm the defensive one? I'm pretty sure I pointed out I was trolling in like my second post, your bad for getting trolled anyway.
OP updated.[/quote]
If a few sentences strung together is your idea of "an essay" you're even sadder than I thought.

And by the attitude your corp showed for the tournament ("We have 50+ members online, but none can bother enough to corp battle"), good luck holding districts. Also, don't back up PRO, Contraban talks a lot of **** and forgets this isn't MAG.
