Hah maverick, you might do yourself good by restraining from replying to every single thing that you consider that is targetted towards you. Just use common sense, logic and the personality of the guy who says it. Cutton's being rational of how VC:MP clans should be doing as a clan to promote the game play, to grow the gaming society. You don't need to be too self conscious on whether or not Charley Barley could think you as ignorant or w/e, cause he doesn't
But back on topic, it's a matter of the old ideology conflicting with the new modern thinking of how a clan should be helping out the gaming rather than trying to stand out. Before ULK came, most clans used to exist to show off how cool they were and how unbeatable they were. KFJ, DnA, UST known as the rivals about 3-4 years ago accepted rookie players and when they thought their clan was growing too much, they often stopped recruiting. Then comes along MK, DU, DS, DZ, VU to start the clan kind of thing which wasn't really existent before. The leaders of all these clans were pretty influenced by the idea of a strong clan, the only clan to be at the top, and clan events were performed with that as a basis. Then ULK comes back suddenly and says what the clans are supposed to be doing. This influence only reached a few since there aren't many current clans who do that, to point it out frankly, only VU and ULK. Since ULKs return many newbies joined the clan and became known to us. Same goes to VU, and as they left the clans for other clans, it made the other clans stronger as well, making it possible for clans to compete against each other.
So basically, if you think that accepting people you do not know does harm to the clan, you're just being selfish as you don't want to hang out with those guys and they should remain as outcasts forever. You're saying the newbs don't deserve a place in any clan as they are new. But if you think about it, we were all newbs, and we've become what we've become through experience. You might argue the newbs should do the same then come back and apply when they are ready. However, considering the small player count of VC:MP, we can't expect that to happen, rather, we should encourage the newbies to stay. Get it? It's doing good both for your clan and the community.
Now if you're still gonna argue against what Charley's done, go get some coffee and clear your mind.
