| The need for a new family or families | Started by: Bed on Nov 08, '07 11:07 |
|
we have hit that point again where there is no room for any newcomers to our shores, the time to auth someone is now in my eyes. I realise I hold no power when it comes to giving people authorisation but all i see is four full (or very close to being full) families. the Gods have recently helped a nex influx of mafiosi coming to our shores and we are not giving them the homes they need for them to stick around. Please, family heads give the new blood a chance. Bed OOC: to back up my claim i have recently been recording the site stats 5th nov - # Registered users: 501. # Users active in the last 24 hours: 278. # New users in the last 24 hours: 33. 6th nov - # Registered users: 503. # Users active in the last 24 hours: 282. # New users in the last 24 hours: 33. 7th nov # Registered users: 511. # Users active in the last 24 hours: 299. # New users in the last 24 hours: 51. it is only a small growth but we have had a leader who had 50 members die since i started recording the statistics so the need is obviously there |

I'm sure the leaders will notice this themselves and deal with it the way the want to... It's just not that easy to go ahead and authorize someone just because there are homeless about its a slow and daunting process which the leaders have to think very carefully about. |

| You make it sound like there is debate and conversation on the issue...My family line has never debated with anyone on who should be a leader. You pick who you like best for the city(ies) you control and don't look back. This belief that authing is a process like choosing a new pope is ludicrous. | |

| So you think just any old spud should be authed? Fair enough thats your opinion, i however think that they should choose carefully or have some sort of inner rank system in each of their crews on who they think would make a good leader. Whats the point in authing someone and then killing them a week later? | |

| I never said pick anyone. I said that each leader can who they think works for their city(ies). This means they, and only they, know who works well and will make a good leader. You cannot auth just anyone, but it is also not a group think decision. Any leader right now has a shortlist of people they think would be a good leader. They just have to step up and make the announcement. | |

We have talked.. We know we need a new family or families. Thank you Bed for sharing the census statistics for all to see.. Maybe it will drive a point home to those that do not realise that our world is growing.. There are some people that are being considered but you have to realise we aren't going to auth just anyone. We need to make sure the people that do get the honour of setting up a home will be level headed and have what is best for this thing we hold so dear in mind. We've seen what happens when auths happen because of rank instead of who the person is and what they stand for.. Please be patient guys, there will be at least one new family being announced soon.. I hope. Thank you all for your concern, we do appreciate it. |

| I have to agree with Bed on this a few more family would help settle this little problem..I mean we only have around 240 in a family so that other 260 are family less witch is bad. | |

As Three has said. The matter has been discussed. Personally, I was having to think long and hard about someone who I felt deserves to have their own family. This is a first for me, usually I have at least one person who I have seen put some effort in and looks like a good choice. It is disappointing from my perspective but thats the way things are at the moment. Perhaps I am partly to blame but meh, Thats for a different time and a different speech. The time for those who want auth to shine is here. Impress us now and you may find you get what you always wanted.. |

I think it would be fun to let the people who want auth, to go duke it out in LV. Everyone sets up and the last one standing is left gets authed. Just a cool idea. |

not really the greatest of plans the one who has a good gun and pro wacker wins dont see how that is choosing anything but a cold hearted killer |

I would much prefer you spent that extra few days, picking someone who is worth the auth, rather than a high ranker who only jail breaks tbh. Good things come to thoes who wait. |

Well it would help choose who deserves it right? I mean we want hard working people as CLs and the ones who can kill work hard for their guns. And I'd just like to see how this plays out. |

Exactly my view ginst3rs. I will also fight against the 'Open a city' idea. Doesn't work that well and usually causes the world to become as unstable as it was a few weeks ago. I know some people love it but I don't, as such it won't happen. |

How would it make the world unstable if you have everyone fly out of LV except the people who want auth and there RHMs? Its not that bad of an idea. |

Because it is a open invitation for anyone who wishes to go rogue. You set up in LV and really test your gun out, will it hit leaders? If it does, I and none of the other leader can defend against someone flying into their city and head jobbing us from 50 yards. It takes seconds to do. We will auth those we feel have the right state of mind and the right personality. Oh, and before you all start going on about protecting our positions by not authing anyone who could threaten us. Thats right, we don't want to auth someone who will shoot us all dead 2 days later. It's bad for business. |

| Bed, to be honest, I see this thread disrespectful in itself. If you had made it slightly differently, and not made the implication that the current CLs are too incompetent to see when a new auth is needed, then it may have been acceptable. Questioning the leaders and their competence isn't the wisest thing I would advise to do. | |

Just listen to the frustration I mean. We all want new blood coming into our shores but how do we protect them? Not every Family has a rule against shooting people under 48 hours. So how do we protect the new people without scaring them away for good? |

I am with Carlo. The idea that the crewleaders do not know what is happening blows my mind. The claim that letting them fight over a city WILL lead to a crewleader who will not be a problem down the line is a joke. The crewleaders gun is the least of the attribute that will ensure that he or she and their crew will be successfully and prosperous and not pose enough of a danger to the other crews that would lead to actions to take them down. Yes, each crewleader can auth anyone they want in their own city, and yes, if there is not anyone who strikes them as the next person to honor with that position, it just wont happen. To give a city to a new crewleader is a complex process of making sure that all the parties feel that this will not be a threat to them and their business interests. Yes indeed our population is growing, but on the other side many of the new arrivals at our shores are being fed to the mad angry insane wack happy shootings who cannot control their urges. I am sure our crewleaders want to make sure that the RIGHT person will be there to house them and bring them in to the true traditions of our families. Salut! |

I refuse to instate a 48 hour rule. 24 hours is long enough to find a family. It is also long enough to find a gun and kill a Earner in my family. Why should I allow this to happen? I understand the need for this world to grow and I can assure you, We have a plan currently in place that will be completed very very soon. This plan will also solve the calls for a new crewleader. However, it will only solve the problem for a day or 2. So, those who can be auth'd. Prove yourselves. Prove you have what it takes to be a Crewleader and solve the situation we currently find ourselves in. As much as people would like to blame the Godfathers of this world, If no-one proves themselves worthy of the position then I refuse to take any blame. |
