Thank you for the ability to do the direct invite. I have thought about everyone's input and spoke with my recruit. I have decided that even though this recruit has completed the marksman and the sharpshooter that the best thing for the recruit and the group is to wait out the 2 week period. I am considering this a test of loyalty to CAG. I know she will pass with flying colors. I look forward to awarding her the well deserved medals when the time comes.Originally Posted by CAG CheechDogg

Yea true I mean if the person becomes a flake that u direct invite into the clan it would look bad you and now I don't think I have friends that would be up to it or whatever I have one my room mate but the thing there is he never really plays and not much of a gamer except for resident evil which he still barely plays. My gamer friends are more geared towards casual gaming and would play with a clan but wouldn't really try at it.

I think you made the right decision. While, I understand you sometimes may run into a recruit who goes above and beyond what is asked of them and really seems to "click" with your squad or group. I feel a "direct invite" is more for someone you've known for an extended amount of time online or in person.
A week is hardly enough time to truly judge someone's character and who they are as a person and as a gamer. Great call bud, but since you guys feel so highly about her to begin with. I'm going to assume either way you went would have been a great call.

Like Cheech has said in the past the recruitment process is time and tested to weed out the ones who are worthy. I STILL see no problem with it and will continue to support the process.

Joe ..I am just really glad and feel a sense of "reassurance" when someone like Reaper who is new to the Family can and shows the understanding of how "Our" system works ... It is not very popular system as we have seen in the past from the many players who have left within days or weeks of being involved in our system, but this system is what has worked for CAG for many years ...
When "I" decided to implement this system it was a very difficult thing to do ... there were many great players and some online "friends" who decided not to stick with CAG because of this very system ... players and "friends" who had played with "Me" for years and they didn't agree with the system and structure ... many laughed at having to wait or go through a probation period .... laughed and criticized the Weapon Medals/Badge requirements ...
One of those guys was actually your 2nd in Command "Toxic" lol .. but over time he bought into the system and it took me about a year before he started coming onto the site and started being active ...
This system was methodically planned out over the span of 2 years during the time when my interest for web-design happened ... I have seen many people come and go ... but every successful organization of any kind has and needs a structure that needs to be followed ... those systems are not going to be for everyone and CAG is not for everyone ...I have had reluctance to change on many things and the 2 week probation and the need for official members during games to confirm is one that can and does have some "leeway" ...
The decision by Reaper to have this new recruit wait for her 2 weeks is something that really exemplifies CAG's commitment to "teamwork", discipline, integrity and patience ... four very important qualities that are needed to run a successful organization of any kind ... If recruits really want to be here and they understand and see that we are selective to "a" point they will appreciate the wait and the standards to which we hold recruits and our members to ....
CAG has evolved and become more open to change ... CAG was strictly a "camping" style clan and we did not allow anyone in the clan who didn't buy into our "camping" style system ... but in just the last 2 years we have had very versatile players like CAG PATRON, CAG SILENT, bluedevil80, CAG Randuken, CAG Covieleader, CAG twofkbrotal and CAG BIG COUNTRY who have helped CAG evolve and adapt to change and have been open to keep evolving and which is why they are now co-leaders in CAG .... these guys only to name a few from the list of officers have shaped CAG's structure and system ... and just within the last 2 years have been successful using the 2 week probation period and the direct invite option ...
So seeing Reaper make decisions like this one at his own discretion honestly brings joy and helps me feel comfortable knowing that we have members in CAG who really care about it's integrity ....
Thank you guys really for treating CAG as your own ... this is why we "ARE" still #1 and will continue to be #1 ...

I must say that in all of this the thing I liked the most was that it was my choice to make. I was given the facts and I was told that i had the wiggle room to do what I thought was best. The fact that there was wiggle room says a lot to me. I love the fact that this clan ( Family ) if flexible. For this I am truly happy i have found a home here.

It's all about trust Reaper ... Integrity is something I am really big on ... I need to trust that you guys will do what is best for the clan ... and honestly believe that if I trust those who I choose to surround myself with I will earn their respect as a Leader and in return they will also lead with the same integrity and respect that I try to myself... It's not easy to have people stand behind you and trust you and even more so them calling you their Leader ... but it's because of you guys that I can Lead with confidence ... So thank you once again for understanding ....

You can count on me to stand behind your back and then in front to take the bullets for you Cheech. CAG is by far the best and most awesome clan I have ever had the pleasure of being a part I wouldn't even mind being a peeon for my stay here although it would be preferable to help lead the clan in the higher ranks
