How is that any different than recruiting alot more people? We had an alliance with VG and COTP - which toward the start, were ZERGS in EVERY sense of the word ...

... so why are we so against being a zerg? but we'll join one?

I think everyone here knows the reality is, AT THE VERY LEAST, we need to bust up numbers considerably, or else we'll be doomed either being a nomad guild or just another cog in one of the zerg alliance's wheels.

OR, a much more appealing prospect, allying with 1 or 2 guilds MAX (which is a hard life)

The fact is, people don't want to label KGB as a zerg cause people will start talking shit about us, but they are perfectly willing to ally themselves with zergs that, lets be honest, had their fair share of aholes. (Goons, tacticsless COTP)

Just things to think about. And please, THINK about it, unless we're satisfied being second fiddle to an alliance of zerg. Sure, everyone's part of the zergs, but that's not an excuse not to stick to your guns.

Realistically, though, mass recruit is near impossible at this point - but I do think that KGB should think of more mass promotion for recruitment; posts in the DFO forums (we have none atm), periodic messages in starter cities, and making REGULAR videos for youtube. (Something I could personally do, but no one wants to see only videos of Syloc playing)

And this is something we have to get on NOW. And I mean right at this moment, because the relaunch for the expansion will bring some people back to the game that are looking for a guild and if we miss this gravy train - then we'll miss the biggest opportunity to gather quality members.


We have not made any final decisions on which alliance to join.
Jetstar, Morlander and myself will be meeting with various Alliance leaders tonight for some Q&A. Once we have the information we need, I am sure Jet will make a post asking for our Members thoughts on the matter.

I understand about the "Zerg" issue. No one likes to be the ones that are shit talked. But the fact is almost every single alliance no matter the real size of it.. will call in others to assist outside their alliance and still be called a zerg.

as for the recruitment. I have some ideas that may help us bolster some numbers. If anyone else has ideas I welcome you to please let me know. As we grow in numbers, Jetstar and I will be looking to add on to our Recruitment team. If this maybe something your interested in, again PM me or Jet about it.
