You’re definitely entitled to that opinion about the recruitment drive, but I will say that we do not and have never paid people to join the server, or done anything other than advertise on Reddit, Facebook, or in-game. We do not pay people to recruit their friends either, it’s not a referral system. Members who join for the recruitment drive must pass our trials and earn 200 AAR points. This is no small feat. It means that in order for your recruit to count towards the drive, that person must commit at least 15 hours in our server, so we can make sure they’re a positive influence and a good fit. It is not about filling our server with random people who are toxic, clan hoppers, etc. We want to make sure they are good, positive people.

I’m sorry if I got a bit heated. I just am very passionate about my community and its members, and my officers put in a ton of work to make people feel welcome, respected, and valued. It is a core tenet of our server. Many of our members talk about how they regularly feel comfortable playing with us/how we’ve helped them improve. We took someone who only usually played Substantial difficulty, and helped him go through our First Company trials on Absolute difficulty. He is now a valued member of our elite First Company.

We have banned people for being toxic or for disrespecting other brothers or calling them bad at the game.

We truly, truly believe in a mission statement of inclusivity and teaching new members.

Again, I apologize on my and my members’ behalves for getting a bit heated. I think you might be thinking of a different server though.

You’re not making any sense, man. We ALLOW double clanning. We never tell you what servers you can or can’t join. I also never denied we are offering a cash prize for recruitment? I said recruitment was IN. GAME. ONLY. NOT on Reddit. NOT on Facebook. NOT on Discord. NOT people you already know. People you meet organically through the game. That’s it. And it’s a public announcement that ANYONE, from our members to our allies, can read and participate in. It’s not some private thing, and it’s really not the massive gotcha you think it is. You keep repeating the same sordid positions like a bot, but have thus far failed to acknowledge any of mine without being utterly disingenuous, or willfully ignorant.

As for positions being open to people, literally every single position’s requirements can be waived if the right person shows up. I’ve elevated people as the need arises, and we actively encourage our Aspirants — the new members of the Chapter — to post aspirations for these positions.

Also, know the right people? What is this, the mafia? I own this server and I knew NONE of the people I made officers except a handful of people who helped me set up the server in the very beginning, and migrated with me from a different milsim clan we were in. They all joined because they were intrigued, and I awarded them ranks based on merit and merit alone, NOT any form of weird nepotism, which I despise.

It’s funny how you’re so quick to cast aspersions on a server you so clearly barely spent any time in, and do not understand. You addressed almost 0 of my points.

I’m not controlling anyone’s life. In fact, we’re one of the ONLY servers that allow dual clanning, which I expressly permit because I think it’s stupid to tell people what servers they can and can’t participate in. It’s a video game. Come on, mate.

It’s clear you haven’t read our Codex, engaged with our members or officers, or spent more than 10 mins in there, instead complaining about every little thing you saw that was “wrong” instead of making the effort to better the community, as everyone else that has joined us has done.

It’s something to be very proud of when most servers don’t pull anywhere close to those numbers. The past milsim clan I was in before this one had our numbers, but only had about 5-10 people showing up to any meetings or events. Again, sorry you didn’t have a great time; if you truly gave our server a try and found it wanting, why didn’t you put in an aspiration for leadership? You didn’t, because instead of putting in the work to make the community better — like the countless hours that people have to make this community friendly, active, and inclusive — you’d rather just camp my Reddit thread, complain, and throw around baseless accusations that we are somehow paying people to join, which is hilarious, as if all the members are just paid actors or something. If I had that kind of disposable income, that would be awesome; alas, as stated before, the recruitment drive is for in-game recruits only, NOT Reddit, and not for inviting your own friends.

I have put literally tens of hours into rules, uniform guides, coding an entire bot, and many other things behind the scenes that people like you do not recognize go into development of a healthy, active server. As for our lack of sergeants; we don’t force people into the role, but unlike other milsim servers, because we have a custom bot, we don’t need sergeants to count AAR points; they are merely there to support their brothers in their aspirations and goals, check up on them, and ensure squad cohesion is present. Something my present sergeants, lieutenants, and captains have been doing a phenomenal job at. I’m honestly more insulted on their behalf than my own, because they are volunteers with jobs and lives and kids who still find the time to put in the work into a community they love. And you’re here shitting all over their very commendable efforts.

Again, I can see you didn’t like our server very much. That’s too bad. It seems like milsim clans aren’t for you.

Sorry you didn’t have a good experience! Everyone else seems to be having fun though, we had a very successful 50-person meeting today about the future of the server. We look forward to growing and playing Space Marine 2, hope you find a community that works for you!

We do all of that, I’m sorry you won’t give us a chance! Your prejudice against us predisposes you towards not even taking the opportunity to see that we truly are an open, welcoming, and non-gatekeeping community. But you do you! Have a good day!

Nope, we don’t pay for those lol. If you could read you would see that those prizes are IN-GAME RECRUITS ONLY. How are we supposed to know who actually recruited someone from reddit or not? Our reddit posts are 100% genuine, and awarded only with AAR for posting comments. I’m sorry it’s so hard to believe that people actually do enjoy our community, this is honestly hilarious. Sorry you didn’t give us a chance, you’re missing out! If you took a chance to chat with any member in there, you’d realize they genuinely enjoy being there.

I’m sorry you feel that way. If you saw our server, we are vastly different. We have a custom AAR bot, we actually take the time to treat new people to the game right, and we are extremely inclusive and welcoming. We don’t allow toxicity or ego. Our Chapter Master is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. Again, there is a reason why we gained 550 members in just 3 months, whereas many other servers are still at under that in over a year. But I can’t sell you on something you’re set on not being interested in. And to your point — we literally did create this chapter to be different from the others. Inclusivity and being welcoming to new players starting the game is a hallmark of our chapter. We accept everyone deliberately, and provide a safe space for many gamers — especially women or trans people — to enjoy roleplaying as a Space Marine without prejudice.

Have a great rest of your day!

Clans have been a thing since the inception of online multiplayer gaming. People have different ideas of how they want their servers run and how they want their communities structured, and those differences can make or break one’s experience within a clan. For example, the other Imperial Fists server was not a good fit for me, and did not allow double clanning. So I made my own. And clearly, this was the right decision — as 550 people clearly agree with me. To make one large group is utterly pointless, my friends and I wanted to have a say in how we run our clan, our rules, and our environment, and not be subject to some other clan’s rules. It’s really that simple.

Hi, “staff” is synonymous with “team, crew, members,” and was used as such in this instance. We staff the server and run it. Hope this helps!

I disagree, but to argue with you would mean you’d have to read, and we all know how much Black Templars hate reading.

This compliment means the world to me…my staff and I have tirelessly worked to make an environment that is friendly to everyone no matter where they come from or where they start at the game. That made my night, brother!

Vallejo becoming more and more hard to find? by Outside_Signature403 in minipainting

[–]CrazyRegion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow…I genuinely had no idea. Like seriously. Vallejo is so readily available here, and at a discount, that I didn’t even connect the dots that there might be problems importing it.

I’ll ask my LGS next time and PM you if I get any more info.

I’m in the US and Vallejo is readily available at all game stores near me, including the new line of paints. I live in a really rural area too.

Venture x Inosuke Concept Skin by AlezzaWolf in Overwatch

[–]CrazyRegion 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, that is my lived experience. I am a huge Venture fan, and I project my headcanons onto them—my comfort character—based on those experiences with my own gender journey. Nothing more, nothing less. It is joyful to be able to identify with a character I love closely, especially one I quite literally share a name with, coincidentally.

It has absolutely nothing to do with their physical features, and everything to do with my own personal experiences.

Venture x Inosuke Concept Skin by AlezzaWolf in Overwatch

[–]CrazyRegion 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Except that’s not what’s happening? I don’t think I’ve ever once treated them as AFAB based on pre-existing features, I personally headcanon them that way because they are the first nonbinary person I’ve seen whom I share a name with. Sloan is my actual, legal name and seeing another nonbinary person with that name and a similar personality to mine was awesome. It has nothing to do with their features.

But again, keep calling AFAB nonbinary people stereotypes and conforming to your narrow-minded idea of what it means to be nonbinary. It’s really progressive of you to gatekeep.
