10 post minimum question.....

Dave,

Why is it so important to have 10 posts? I understand SEO stuff if that is the reason but I work about 50 hours a week setting infront of a computer or in a meeting and I just really want to come home and take out my frustrations on someone with a MP7. Not arguing just asking.

PS - I think that is number 4 or 5

Well you don't have to have 10 posts! Just means u will be deleted from the forums. It does not mean the people you play with will delete you! Most of us have jobs and spend a lot of time at work BTW! So ask yourself this question. Does it matter to you if you are deleted from the forums?

Captund3rpantzz,

Of course it matters as I do enjoy playing with the people that are on here and part of this clan. I just asked why it was important....and of course I highly doubt that those people would stop playing online as a teammate if I did not make ten posts...we are not that type of clan..

inquiring minds want to know......

I think it's to minimize the free loaders who would want to join a large clan just so they can get the benefits from elite like double xp, titles, emblems whatever.

To be active part of the clan is to post as well.. may sound petty and annoying but 10 posts really isn't a lot.. just go.the the introductions and put welcome to the clan.. then your 10 posts are.done..

Just shows who still is an active member . Doesn't even matter if its one word posts .we have so many members that have no post at all .

I want to delete the people that are not actively participating in the clan (Stale forums accounts and peopl that don't socialize with the clan in the game). I run a report that shows me people that are active on the forums. There are people in the clan that have 0 posts and some that have 0-9. To me that is hard to tell whether the person is active or inactive. Some people have been approved that have 0 posts still and they have been members for several months. ARE they active members??? I see some of them online but I don't get the chance to play with everyone. So if I just deleted people that I haven't played with that had 0 posts then I would be deleting people that may actually be very active in game and not know it.

By getting people to make the 10 posts I can eliminate them from my reports. I would be able to run a report that says show me everyone that has less than 10 posts and hasn't been on the forums in 60 days. Once I have those names I can delete all of those members. Did you see the lists that I posted in the graveyard? Those are pretty long lists.

It gives the people that want to stay here an opportunity to save their account. By not getting your 10 posts in you are not just getting deleted from the Website but from the Elite Clan Lists also. People may still have you on their friendslist and you may still play with everyone but IN ORDER TO BE IN THE CLAN YOU MUST BE A MEMBER OF THE FORUMS. In ORDER TO BE A MEMBER OF THE FORUMS YOU MUST HAVE 10 POSTS!!

It helps me and the mods to keep accurate clan lists and just keeps us up to date. I hope that I covered everything. I've gotten interrupted several times today while typing this out.

douwant2 one question?.........................just how good!

There are people that have over 10 posts that have to be dealt with also. Some have left or never play anymore and they may have 50-100 posts or more. I have to deal with those accounts in a different manner.

The website shows that we have 480 members. That is no where close to being accurate as far as active members goes. I want that number to reflect the number of active 30 members and not the number of people that were accepted in the clan forums and then they dissapeared.

Just out of curiosity, how many active in-game members are there in the 30?

Seems like there are a ton that are active in the forums, at least it feels that way by all the posts i see from diff folks.

Just curious how many you would guess are active in-game...

There are lots of active members but numbers. I don't know. With the time zones and different play times its hard to tell.

Thanks Dave. Just wanted to see what and why...thanks for the update and I will attempt to increase my activity here too.

well you just nailed down three posts in this thread here!

You would eventually be removed from my F/L if you are not in the clan, or know me personally. That's how I manage my F/L.

You know it...was part of my evil plan all along....hahahahahah

Now you are at 10..

I know I have not been on the past few weeks. I was busy preparing things in anticipation for the release of black ops 2. Then I was playing black ops 2. Then I killed myself. I came back to life and started preparing for Christmas festivities. I have two places to decorate and I cleaned out a garage. I know I could have found a min to come on here. I just didn't feel like it.

This game has really burned me.
