Order of the Blue Garter: Open Recruitment Season

[Laughlyn]

Im not sure I want to read it. As much as I like to use the BG website to get my questions answered by "the pros", the BG people themselves are kind of pretentious epeeners. I like to get them to help me when I need strategic advice etc, but I keep them at an arms length otherwise.

show them your Titty Sprinkles & maybe they will notice you lol...

It was ur idea, so you first.

pff, lol...i have more interest in masamune's "Perfection" LS than BG.

Atleast they put up a worthy Challenge...but with a lil bit more...attitude.

I like talking to you guys. ô¿ô

Brown nosing aside I just wanted to communicate my particular opinion, that the BG name is something I'm proud of. People suggesting that we might want to change the name of the LS because it's got a bad reputation makes me want to provide my own perspective.

Trying to convince people that think windower is a bannable offense that your LS is actually really nice, fair, etc, is wasted effort. Those kind of people will never understand the types of people who strive to be the best, who care about world firsts, etc. They would rather ramp up their self hate and lack of achievement to the point that they are so foaming at the mouth on these issues they consider using windower or parsers akin to murder and wish ill upon you.

It's fun to troll them but not much else; serious conversation and attempts to convince them otherwise is throwing megabytes down the drain.

Let's take this silly quote, and look at it a moment.. especially the part about being subject to perception.
This may not be the case when it comes to FFXIV.. however..

Would you be willing to say that using bots, hacks, and anything to get an unfair advantage over other linkshells, especially in HNM, which is also against ToS and can get you sued, or banned, merely 'subject to perception' and not actually wrong? Well, it IS wrong. The question in the app seems suspicious enough, but having the namesake of the former Bahamut LS was going to get them this kind of flak from the very outset of this endeavor.

Also, why the hell is this thread still on the front page?

Oh! I must have miss something in their recruitment thread then cause I didn't see anything there about "to join you need to use bots" ...so I think you mean you are reading between lines and that "seems suspicios enough" like you said....but that is still not about perception, right? ...hmm ...well, if that is the case, my bad then. Silly me~ ^^

AsterBarnivere is a troll and a casual, stop replying to him.

BG is one giant elitist, number-crunching circle jerk.

They can keep their invite, the rest of us will keep our dignity.

GL with your apps, BG.

I wanted to join these guys back in XI but they wanted people with 1337 gear and i had above averge, so kinda gave up, they do however have good strats/advices sometimes.

You know, I started reading this thread from a standpoint of 'I respect Blue Garter for their skills, but don't really like the tone of comments/posts/etc I've seen from members.' The level of fame/infamy they've managed to acquire is fairly impressive though, that 29 pages later, we're still responding to a "We're looking for people" post. O.O

After reading this, I like them a bit more, because some of the arguments being brought up against them are utterly ridiculous.

I still think having public-viewable applications & comments are dodgy, but an LS is free to run things however they wish to. Good luck with your applications, guys!
