What exactly is behind your obsession with getting rid of members? You bring it up every chance you get and I really don't understand it.

If you really feel more people should quit maybe you should think about it yourself.

<orange>It's because of the ridiculous amount of people who got in. We're on an average of 2.1 new members per month from July 2003 'til January 2005. That's 38 members in total. Sure, anyone may try to join, but we've had 121 initiates since November 2003 and 30 of those got in. I'm not saying "WE R TEH L337 3LI73" or whatever it is, but it takes away that 'special clan feeling' if 25% of all initiates get in based on what was recommended (200 posts) and only 30 members vote each time. Even now, just little over 30. That's less than half. So I don't mind if we get down to max 40 or so members, over half of the current ones don't seem to care. We should just hope that the right ones stick around.

Apart from the serious number crunching, I'm in an especially bad mood today.</orange>

You could try posting more like the people who actually apply for the clan instead of sitting in your elitist high chair.

well, we wouldnt want to take away that 'special clan feeling' now would we? Guys, seriously, start quitting. I already obliged parena but we need another 23.7% of the clan to quit at a minimum before the specialness quotient reaches acceptable levels (161) again. Seriously guys, you know who you are. Quit.

I know nothing gives me that special clan feeling like encouraging members of the clan I'm in to quit. The more people quit, the specialer I feel!

I had a special feeling, but my doctor told me it wasn't a special clan feeling and must be cancer.

You should get a second opinion. There's a very good chance that it was just my hand down your pants.

I'm always up for a game as long as I'm home, and I actually can play the game in question... BTW, more people should have Live.

<orange>I don't see what's wrong with wanting less members if over half of the members don't care about putting in a few votes every now and then. Some might have their inactiveness reason, sure, but over 40? Why would you all want those as members, seriously? Don't you care?

Plus, the bylaws support me in this. I'm just putting down in plain words what the bylaws say.

And I do post regularly, just not in /gamespy. That's a thing I don't like about the bylaws, but I'll just have to adapt a little, instead of run away screaming.</orange>

Occasionally missing a few voting sessions seems far more harmless then voting -ve for everyone just because you havent seen them / or didnt like the way they posted on 'your' forum.

If your that obsessed with having a 'ONLY FOR AUSEOME PEOPLE THAT I LIKE' clan. Then make one youself, preferably with only one member.

Yeah, I'm not in the clan, but I am leaving /gamespy and /gsf and anything gamespy related. Ditto with IGN. You'll find me in a little spam forum somewhere, having a blast. Cya.

Getting rid of inactives and ecourageing members to quit are two very different things.
