Heckler, believe it or not, I actually agree with you here. BTW, no offense to JM - I'm not referring to that, which is why I left it out of the quote. This thread has been an eye-opener of sorts. 'Of sorts' because I had the same thought myself sometime ago, but thought it would be a treacherous proposition, which is why I never acted upon it.

I'll be PMing both Sarcasm and Mars about a new recruitment policy that I've devised. If they approve, then all the SQUAD members will receive a PM from me, which will tell them about it and once there is a majority vote, it'll be announced to the public. Watch this space, people.

No offense kiwi but that hierarchical crap is also part of the problem. Back in the days, hell back just a couple of months ago, the Squad thing was more of a brotherhood; peers to peers and each members was notorious... that "his excellency" shit and role playing is extremely geeky and kills the fear factor.

Name Notoriety is the Key. Without it, just a bunch of clowns trolling around 8)

Alex, you raise a very good point, except it's not appropriate here. Everything is as it is within as members. I've always referred to Sarcasm as 'The great Sarcasm', 'The almighty Sarcasm' etc, but it's only me who does that among all the members ;D. Mars always refers to Sarcasm as 'The Excellency', 'Founding father' etc. Mars and me get a kick out of saying it, which is why only we do it.

It is still a brotherhood.

It's simple, without SF and Mars, the SQUAD doesn't exist.

There has to be some respect given there Alex. The rest of us are a brotherhood, always have
been and always will be. The creation of different aspects of service within the SQUAD are just
using the strong points of everyone's ability to own little bear cubs in their own right, but doesn't
put one above another.

Agree. But recent feuds had a hit on our credibility. Those should be avoided.

I think my second point regarding the notoriety is extremely important. Months ago, I remember being very intimidated by some epic owners... I don't think it's as true anymore... we need to revive this as well.

There's definitely some reconsolidation going on as kiwiol pointed out.

The infestation of skinny little bottom bears has been especially heavy lately, which caused a little confusion as some innocent onlookers got caught in the crossfire of some particularly savage ownings. The legendary kiwiol has been restoring order while RB and BF keep the V on a tight lockdown from these skinny little twunts.

Squadfather, as a newly annointed associate of the Squad, I ask that you give me a mission to execute!

i gotta agree here. it went from kinda the renegade group of guys keeping things fresh, now it's almost like a goddamn world of warcraft guild. the brief burst of threads about saddam hussein and whatnot didn't help either, it made the place look like they were just desparate for attention along the lines of "look how controversial we are! we like the ayatollah khomenei!" i'm damn glad that's over and done with and things are somewhat back to normal, it's why i stopped posting down here.

besides, a 60 man squad just makes it sound like you guys are going for quantity over quality.

Indeed.  Benjamin Pearson is by far the best of the newest batch.  Columbusdude, JohnMatrix, and a few other newbies are simply lame, unfunny schmucks who couldn`t own themselves out of a wet paper bag.  Not a single one of them has done shit in terms of raising the Squad`s profile.

In all honesty, I haven't seen enough of the other two but Benjamin has been melting people all over the place.

If Pearson isnt a member already via gimmick , then he is actually pretty good.
ColumbusDude isnt as ruthless, but the Arnold Classic may afford him an oppurtunity to prove his case

What owning? That was minor, compared to what cap86 and I and others are doing to Derek Anthony... provoking epic meltdowns and behemoth death threats...
