lol i was wondering the same thing...i think its a fair rule...only downside is people can't show the fun and playful side which can reflect what goes on in faction chat...however - it will force us to make far more constructive and attractive posts to recruit potentials.

Well, aside from it seeming a little strict and almost a punishment, I don't really mind it (though I think 1 post per day would be better), there are a few things I don't like:

1: It means someone or some group has been excessively complaining, and I find that annoying.

2: It's just the way it's posted. It doesn't make it seem like it's for the good of the section. It's just "do this or get punished".

3: If you post without checking nothing's been posted in 3 days you're screwed.

This is Recursion's fault. Check the MCDoE and Fallen Horizon threads.

Oh, I didn't realise it was on the other world forums. I just figured we had the biggest thread, and had a few not so serious posts it might have been because of us :o

Agreed. Its fun trying to think of new things to say if you're one of the only people posting in the thread, like me for Causality :\... I understand the rule, but I don't think that anyone has gone crazy with any of the threads, cus I read most of them.

They're at 55 pages or something over there. I guess recruiting thread pages are sorta like CQs for the server that doesn't get any ^^ j/k

I'd rather have /bumps and funny comments than quotes and poetry any day.

Very true, it's arbitrary, was put forth on the community with no explanation and makes no sense. Oh well, I guess they want to be the first MMO that lacks the ability for guilds/factions/clans to be able to recruit in historically acceptable standards with respect to the MMO industry.

Nah, 'tis my fault for pointing out something funny on the Recursion Recruit boards to someone who is an unofficial mod who decided to do something about it. :/
