I honestly hope that this is my illusion of some of the clan members but I have doubts I'm being fooled. Now this is to everyone but in particular the rookies and the trainees.
This was and SHOULD be a clan without bias. There is this ever on-going, push-pull, prejudiced dance where the level rises and falls. It happens in big mishaps, it particularly happens in application forms, it rarely but still happens in ideas for events, servers, so on. We have a owner/leader, co-leaders, full members......a ranking system. The leader enforces what he wants, co-leaders follow, enforces it to the full members, full members follow, and it goes down till it reaches the trainees, forming a united systematic clan of respect which the leader approves of. All of that is fine and dandy but where does the biased opinions come in now?
Example 1:
I post this very message but I am not eminent to the crowd per se. My replies to this message: "oh what you talking about? we not like that" or something.
The leader of the clan post the very same message. His replies to the message: "that some true shit. I see this a lot. This should change" and all that crap.
Why is it that the very same message gets 2 totally different replies? That should not be so. You have all right to agree or disagree on anyone's opinion, but not in a prejudice manner.
Example 2:
Some dude posts an application. The leader has acknowledged the individual and approves of him but only the leader knows him. Automatically everyone votes "yes, he must be okay"
Another dude posts an application. One weaker figure knows and recommends him, like a trainee or rookie, even a full member (but is not particularly active). The leader, co-leader, some head of position is away to make their approval of him or they don't know him. His application gets the responses: "cant vote, don't know you well", "get to know more people", "waiting on the leader has to say"
Hypocritical behavior....why vote yes to someone you don't know and then no to another you don't know just because some head didn't approve of him? Everyone that is here, should have the competence by now to assess a person by themselves without ever waiting on the opinion of a head for your own head to start working. That's not a united clan. That's a clan with overworked officials and blind-minded, prejudice followers.
Cease and Desist.
I call no names, it would defeat my purpose of competence. Assess yourselves and curb this behavior. It is not welcomed here. You are free to do whatever you want, however you want
within virtuous reasons.
Biased reasons ain't one of them.
A word to the wise is sufficient
