recruitment competition

[DarkPrice]

have admin stopped monitoring the recruitment competition or what? :/

[DarkPrice]

come on, ppl that aren't on the top 15 gets to 1st place in less then 1 hour? i bet you guys doesn't care to look at the recs anymore...

[Swudeson]

I doubt they monitor this anymore...

[DarkPrice]

yeah and that kinda sucks for the ppl who are trying for real do get ppl to start... i just feel like **** this im going to outcraft after all my work to get like 50 new members the last 3 days and go from 6th to 11th place the last hour

[Wizzy]

I forgot that the recruitment competition existed! LOL

I guess we can all agree that was a flop. Back to the drawing board it is.

[DarkPrice]

lol, was fine untill ppl suddenly got 100-200 recs in less then 1 hour

[Egnar]

Seems all of there recruitment avenues fail. . .

First Newb Pwnage (which obviously wasn't meant for proxies) and then the recruitment competition.

More people would do recruitment comp if you didn't have to buy points to be able to be a part of it.

i never saw a real point to it to begin with, it was always gonna be abused they should just remove it

well they had a good point "for them" but now i dont think they get any real members from it... Lets vote, remove it or keep it?


REMOVE or think about what can be done to make it better?

[Wizzy]

I don't really see how you could make it better unless you come up with a completely NEW way of doing it.

Hey guys ~

We appreciate your concern for fair play in the Recruitment Competition. Admittedly, we haven't been monitoring this as well as we should have and we apologize.

As a result, we're going to go make certain this is monitored as much as necessary from now on to make sure that only the legitimate recruiters are recognized and rewarded.

We are also going to sift through previous winners and penalize them. A lot!

This is only open to people who have made purchases, because we want people to take this competition seriously. If any level 1 character could start recruiting people, the cheating would be incredible, and a huge waste of time for us. Therefore, we make sure that the cheaters have something to lose. We will suspend cheaters indefinitely and as a result, the cheater will forfeit his or her accounts and purchases.

The Recruitment Competition is a great way to earn free points and gear for those who can't afford to purchase right now. And now that we're monitoring this competition, we hope you will participate and become the top Recruiter!!

Good luck!!

I can't join the competition as I'm not validated so how can I earn free points and gear when you to pay to join but it's for people who can't afford to purchase points?

How exactly is that going to be done. The reason I ask is because if say Hec wants to propose a "new idea" loosely based on the recruiting competition system, it'd be nice to know how cheating would be prevented or penalized as you're going to do with the recruitment competition.

Wizzy: Public humiliation.

We are currently monitoring the weekly Competition and have plans to expand it within a few weeks.

[Wizzy]

Uhuh but what I meant was how do you pick out the cheaters?

And I'd be glad if we're informed when the real Justin is back on AIM by some "official" means because this is getting confusing.

[DarkPrice]

well, hows the monitoring going?

another 3400 points going to fabars lvl 1 accounts... you sure this is being monitored?
seems like ppl are just resetting their connection to get more points.
just like NP is f*cked up. Why should a crew that has someone that can reset his connection more then others be stronger cause of their NP?
NP is a joke.. supposed to be clicks from ppl outside the game.. its ppl selling it on all servers.. HOW does that have anything to do with the game?

90% of the people who do this dont recruit they just use methods so it looks like new people are joinng...its multis half the time
