I had in alt in AOE for awhile. They brag about how good their 'government' is, but it's not really that great. I left when the government decided to embark on a project to get to 100 members as soon as possible, no matter what kind of players they invite. I think this is the reason they get flak, they literally let anyone join so they could get to their goal of 100 members.

@Noobster11: Good thing they have Poseidon in their clan, 'cause Hera's gonna need his help to handle that burn.

ah, we'll let the evidence talk for our standards Noobster ;) https://www.warlight.net/MultiPlayer/Tournament?ID=15584

CORP's average player is in no way representative of CORP's top tier of players. Out of that team, I'd probably put 2 in a Clan League team.

Our policy all along is that we are a friendly clan who accepts anyone

Nanimo - That was before the Senate voted to temporarily halt recruitment. Then the Department of Recruitment led by J Willy 47 agreed to vet candidates in a more robust fashion. Sure we don't have specific numerical or statistical benchmarks (like a maximum boot rate or minimum level), but we no longer subscribe to anyone and everyone.

Wow what an arrogant asshat clan you got there.

my post was just a message to them wow did not expect this response. still if any do want to join they would have to fit our needs but I feel putting it out there for them to see a easier way than having to reply to every message I get. just ask and we will see if you have what it takes to be a true god

Aha, top tier doesn't show your clans standards, your bottom tier does.

wow noobster lmao what a fool

Hera start being active in the games you play and not leave your clanmates alone and then start asking for members to join your clan.

For a recruiter to get booted in games while he is online and while he is playing with a clanmate dosnt say a lot of good things about you.


If you oppose what i say i will send you the links, but we both know that i am saying the truth.

Seriously? Your title was " whoever wants a real clan leave AOE and join us! " If you honestly thought that would have blown over well then your truly blind and dim

If any of our noob members leave because of this dimwit I will probably have to hire COLONEL to....do what he does best. I'm just joking but seriously stop being a dimwitted Greek yogurt God and leave AOE alone

Hades, in that case Lynx needs to step it up :P People in "elite" clans shouldn't be losing to players like me.

I want proof our members were " harassing " you. If you don't have any proof then you honestly should consider a day job because harassing younger clans and trying to ruin there name isn't working out for you

Lol, stealing members now are we?

I didnt know that clanmembers belong to the clan or even to the clan leader...

AOE respectfully declines the offer, request you do actual recruitment rather than steal our players by offering false rewards and promises to members

to be fair, what one calls stealing, someone else may call recruitment. and if your members feel more comfortable with olympus, isnt it AOEs fault if they want to change the clan?

Seriously? Listen you jackass. Apparently some of AOE members thought it would be cool to unite the clans to form one good Greek Rp clan. The Senate however found out based on your history that you would never play fair send give AOEs members fair representation. Now that you lost your doing this petty gesture huh? Our suspicions were right on. AOE is larger and friendlier and unlike you not power hungry. I think I speak for most of AOE when I say....go fuck Yourself

that is hell of a weird reply. =D you should really improve on appealing sympathy. the hunger for power is it that what all the fuzz is about? thats pathetic. you should rather enjoy playing warlight.

I'm a little new to this clan thing. Care to explain?

Admiral Hood, Im afraid there isnt much to explain, but your profil made me kinda curious. did you ever consider to be part of a rp clan? =)

Generally, if you're worried about other clans "stealing" your players, it means you weren't doing a good job keeping them. IMHO, you should either just step it up on your end if you really want to keep those players (e.g., if you're a diplo clan losing players because they've actually learned how to play and are no longer satisfied with diplos, you could try providing a strategic environment for them) or just acknowledge that your clan isn't a good fit for them and let them move on.

If clans don't compete for players, they don't really have much of an incentive to improve themselves and aim to better deliver value to their members. For most leaders, it's still like a childhood game where you pretend to be some type of royalty but don't demonstrate any form of real leadership.

When I was leading CORP, I remember clans like USSR/Wolves/etc. wanting our players (although obviously no open campaign was launched) and a few others worrying that we were stealing theirs (which, to my knowledge, wasn't due to any efforts on our part- the only clan I remember going after was DARKLORDS, and that's only to pick up good strategic players that didn't feel like they were gaining much from the clan). There were probably a lot more recruitment attempts that I don't know of, but in any case the only way the leadership at the time responded was by trying to find out more and more about what other clans did better than us + constantly making sure that our clan was able to really give players what they wanted. At least on my end, the goal was to make CORP a clan that was able to deliver more value to its players than they would be getting from any other clan they could be a part of.

Apparently, other clans don't do that. I've seen quite a few react with insecurity rather than a desire to improve themselves.

Why do so many clans have the aim of trying to get so many players?

It just creates a weaker clan in so many ways. Make a clan with people you play with alot, or join one with people you have played with.

Clans are suppose to make the actual game of warlight more fun, yet to me it seems like for many other clans it just creates problems and hassles for members.

Buns157 - CORP in my opinion is actually the exception to your theory. They've been able to absorb more players and maintain the same structural framework they've wanted. In other words, they haven't gotten worse as they've grown. People who've left CORP and those still in it can confirm this.

Heh, Buns, thats what I did. I noticed how cool most members of TJC were and I joined. Not that hard.
