New? Watch out. The whores be out there. | Started by: RavenPritchard on Apr 10, '11 06:02 |
Feeling weary from her trip she wandered the streets of This Thing of Ours stealing purses to buy herself a few necessities when she was approached by a gentleman. He looked desperate as he motioned for her to come speak to him. His lips mouthed the words.. |

On the contrary sir. I do not think it has been looked at from my point of view before. I mean no disrespect when saying this of course. |

Zerk, I would point out that nearly every topic that has graced the fine Streets has done so more then once. Even though it's an oft spoken on subject, it does not mean that it can't be revisited again. How else would the young ones know anything of our ways and our opinions, if they do not have the benefit of listening to debates in the streets?
I would also point out that transcripts of past conversations only serve so much use... |

Zerk never said Zerk had a stand point, however, Zerk is quit tired of all the trash polluting the streets so Zerk will most definitely move on for that reason. NOT because Zerk has somehow felt magically inspired by words you've copied and pasted into our lovely streets.
My meaning is, it's been said before a millions times, nothing has changed even when high statures have made rules about it and it's not ever going to change. Why do you think the "city rules" never mention this? Now, I'm not taking a side either way. Only making a point that, try as you might, it wont change a thing but Zerk does in-fact wish you the best of luck in doing so. Zerk deeply hopes that you will make a difference, so carry on as you were.
And yes people if you didn't notice, it is Zerk that she is talking about. Zerk member whored this ONE TIME and now it had to be made a public issue for everyone to see, just Zerk's luck!
Zerk brings down his beam of light to transport himself home, blinding everyone who dared to look at it. After the light finally disappeared you see a golden turd laying on the sidewalk. 100% gold in turd shape. |

Trolley Snatcha was casualy walking past when something caught his ear and confused him slightly. He walks towards the small group to get some clarification.
So let me get this straight Mr Zerk, first you admit the old member whoring problem has been raised so many times that it has become boring to you.
Yet you then admit to still do it.
Now in my view there is a difference between whoring and recruiting. Recruiting needs to be done as many people new to these shores need help and advice in the right direction, but thrusting an invite under their nose is different.
I dont blame RavenPritchard for bringing this public as clearly the horse hasnt been beaten enough. |

Alabama listens to what the others have said before motioning forward to speak
Thank you, Raven, for sharing your experience with us. There are many people in the world of crime that find member whoring to be the lowest and most deplorable act a mobster can commit, where as others see no issue with it. In fact, some even geniunly think they are helping those that are new off the boat. I applaud you for taking the time to stop and tell us your tale, whether or not there has been 100 similar tales before yours, not everyone will have heard them, as was touched on already by Naenia.
Personally, im in the club that hates membor whoring, i've never done it and have no inclination to start, but in the current days where finding new associates is becoming increasingly difficult due to the ties that have been formed by the parents of a lot of the "new" blood, this means there are very few actual new people joining this thing of ours, so finding them quickly and bringing them into your family requires you to be very apt at recruiting.. sadly, I don't think there are many people around that fit this bill.
Alabama turns to Zerk
Whilst I dont encourage or support your actions, no-one other than your immediate leader and Godfather can tell you what you did was wrong. There are no city rules to stop you from thrusting an invite in someones direction. I do believe you when you say its not a common action that you take, you do come across as someone with a degree of intelligence at least. I guess now you'll think twice before doing such a thing, though. You never know who's palm you're putting that invite into, so best get to know the person a lot better first. |

Once member whoring was downright outlawed, then intervention came from city hall and things where changed. There is no way to stop member whoring. You can only hope that teachers in familes work harder to instill proper values in their sponsors. But the reality is, at the end of the day, its the sponsor who has to make the proper judgement call on if what they're doing is right or not. |

Zerk will do no such thing Alabama. If Zerk wants to member whore, then Zerk will member whore. The only people that will stop Zerk is Zerk's Godfather or Zerk's CL. Zerk's not saying Zerk is going to member whore but if Zerk chooses too and anyone has a problem (beside those that decide his fate) then Zerk supposes the streets shall be a great place for venting your emo frustrations out about it. Basically Zerk is saying if you don't like the fact that Zerk member whored ONCE then you have literally nothing better to do than bitch and moan about it instead of taking action. OFF WITH HIS HEAD FOR MEMBER WHORING your kind would say. Zerk says get over it and stop being an emo and be a mafioso. Zerk's right here, take your shot if you don't like that Zerk member whored ONCE! Don't want to kill someone for member whoring ONCE? Then bitch-on I suppose.
Zerk's point is member whoring is like emo people, can't stop people them from crying like little babies and you can't stop member whoring. |

Err right, well Zerk I do apoligise for being an emo, would help if I knew what such a thing is or how I compared to it. But interesting point none the less.
Also are you emphasizing the fact that you whored once or that someone called you out on it once? I suspect the later.
Your absolutely right though, you cant stop member whoring, but then you cant stop insest... dosen't make it right though. |

Just because somethings been discussed before doesnt mean it cant be spoken about again. There are plenty of fresh faces in these cities that are not familar with events that occured in the past. Maybe someone will hear our words and take them to heart. |

"I understand where you're coming from Raven and Falcon. Yes it is nice to share stories and obviously there are fresh faces but this subject other then the Respect subject.. is one of the most discussed subjects and has been every month for the past... god knows how long. I am just expressing my opinion and even the most smallest discussion can become escalated within moments." |
