Rare Ex (Endgame) recruiting for 2.0

[Crimen]

In response to crimen, You were out camping NM's aka buffalo and uraius against us. You guys kept getting claim and wiping over and over. Why would we raise you? That doesn't make me an ass because we didn't raise our competition.

Well, now that you bring that up in detail, which I wanted to avoid to keep stringing it a lonnng, if you remember correctly, lol, we had gotten there a bit earlier than you guys,we wiped etc etc etc. Point is, the reason why you refused to rez us, when the day before, or days (it's been a while back lol) you were in the same position and we came to your aid, and you know that my former LS had a specific "alliance" (at least that's what they called it lol I don't really think there's such thing is this game.), with Adrenaline, in which we had come to each others aid, many times, til that day, and your LS lost our respect just as the other ever so great LS that still stands to this day lol you know the one~, and the reason for letting us wipe?

I already mentioned it but I'll say it again. "If you were that LS, you would have let us wipe." But guess what? We never were, we always helped anyone and everyone including, yes that LS. Even a couple of your old LS members left soon after cause of various negative attitudes, not cause they "weren't good enough". I understand it's common for some people to not care to raise others, even though that makes them look like scum (hell, we've even helped raise people in wolf camps while trying to fight for claim at the same time) though it's almost passable unlike your decision after having knowing us and having received help and vice-versa before.

And I know "pffft we never had an alliance" I know, but I felt like you should know the type of respect we once had for you guys, and how your actions made you lose it, and how you still seem to make similar mistakes. But yeah you're not here to make friends with the world. Just to win and let others lose regardless of who they are. If they aren't in your LS they mean nothing.

Why was runic's post more presentable and less cocky? How was my post cocky? If the words Ill let my website do most of the talking is cocky, I don't even know how to respond to that. Runic said our relic count, same as me. So please tell me how his post was any different from mine? If you are referring to one of the top 2 NA linkshells on the server I will stick by those comments. I give credit where credit is due and Legacy is the other top NA shell on our server. As far as im concerned they are the only other true NA endgame shell. There are some others out there that get some things done but most of them are mainly socials that just do events, some are better than others. Im sure not everyone agrees but again that's just my opinion. There are all kinds of great foreign shells but im strictly talking NA ones. So if this makes me cocky then so be it ><

It's a lot more cocky than Runic's, I guess you didn't notice, which, isn't your fault, but I guess you should have discussed it with your LS mates before posting it, and if they thought it was a great idea, a) they may be kinda scared of contradicting you and getting kicked (which I doubt =p you're harsh but I don't think you'd get to that point) or b) they too have let the success of the ls cloud their judgement, as you can tell for the negative feedback you've been getting. Although you were gonna get plenty of it for the simple fact that you posted on multiple server specific forums. Again, not bashing you for it, just stating facts.

Well considering I am the leader and built this shell I am going to be the one that post. I have a bad rep because I tell players when they are bad, and I actually kick players/reject apps unlike 95% of shells in this game. You have never played with me so for you to say all of these things is just ridiculous. I play games to win and get through content and while not everyone likes it, I get things done, as in the case of RareEx. I'm sure there are a lot of members that I have kicked from RareEx because they just simply weren't good enough, so they probably do hate me. Im not here to baby players and try to be best friends with them. I am great friends with most of all the people in my shell. Plain and simple, if your a good player and you come in, im sure we will get along great. If your a bad player, you will probably hate my guts along with most others in the linkshell, but in my opinion you shouldn't of applied if you weren't ready. You were just asking to be cut because you were trying to get into something that is way over your head.

I would rather play with a group of people I don't like as long as we are getting this done versus a bunch of my friends but we never get anything done. Our linkshell has a blast, we enjoy doing the content and everyone gets along great doing it. If you don't my attitude of winning then you won't like the attitude of my linkshell because that is what it is, but truthfully when you are clearing content at a very fast rate, running every single night you develop very good friendships along the way.

I am not here to be peoples best friend. I am here to be a leader. If you don't like me tough, but to say you shouldn't have let kai be in charge of recruitment is funny. I know exactly what I want and want to say. Who do you think made this shell and recruited all the of people we have? I know what im looking for and the people posting in this forum isn't it. Its obvious that none of you have any experience being in a very serious endgame shell in any game. If you did then my post wouldn't of came off as cocky and you would understand why I didn't let my linkshell raise yours when you were our competition. Socials are friends, endgame is for content. So in response to you and everyone in here, if someone has had bad experiences with me in the past its because I probably told them they were not good enough and either kicked them from my shell or rejected their app. Its pretty simple really, good players like me, bad players don't, but for you to make all these assumptions off of what some people say crimen, you should probably here both sides of the story before you come at me never having talked to me before.

Ok, so I cut a few things from your post to leave the things I wanted to talk about.

Just because you're the leader of the LS, and you know what you're looking for in players, doesn't mean you're the most presentable person. You seem to lack charisma. One of the main reasons why Ruinc would have been better to post for recruitments is that he seems to have had a "neutral" reputation as not too many people know him, and was a lot more inviting, not to mention he didn't consider anyone a "waste of time" instead, he stated exactly the kind of people you guys are looking for. Lol I can't believe I actually have to explain this to you. And yes lol we have partied before. For small things, but we've done it. Back in Bodhum anyhow, and your attitude was quite unpleasant =/ I wasn't the only one who thought the same. As I stated before, not everyone is going to fit in with every LS.

I actually was thinking of joining RareEx during the time I was shell-less cause a friend who was already in it recommended it, and praised ya guys, but the requirement at that time was kind of...ridiculous, which was, if I'm not mistaken, and correct me if I'm wrong, that you needed to have all hamlet seals for the relic weapon(s). Now the only reason I say it was ridiculous is cause for a person coming back after a 2 month needed break, without an LS, couldn't really do hamlet since at that time no PUGs were going on. It was LS exclusive left and right. Which, makes sense, same as your pre-req since, you guys didn't want to go back to doing that, you stated why, but again it goes to show how you close opportunities to people who may be very skilled players.

I know my case back then was "well, tough luck kid". So to "not waste your time" I didn't bother to apply, but no, I'm not butt hurt about this, just using this as another example of how you guys shut out people who are skilled, cause I'm sure there were plenty others that had similar issues as I did, and funny enough, I don't even find relics to be worth the time or gil at the moment. So I guess I'll never qualify. Oh well~

Also, I highly doubt "good players" like you, and "bad players" don't. I know a lot of very skilled players that scoff at your name, but yeah I also know a few that have either left willingly or been kicked from the LS who don't like you either be it from Adrenaline or RareEx. Again that's just you getting cocky. You should really stop that. You have members in there that don't like you, and I know 'em, they only tolerate it due to the whole "in it to win it attitude" so don't go all thinking you're great buddies with all of them.

"As far as im concerned they are the only other true NA endgame shell. "
So you guys are bottom of only 2 endgame linkshells on your server, but you also got beat to ifrit by a linkshell of what you guys call "social".

A good linkshell in my opinion is one who strives for server 1st's etc and can come up with their own ideas/stragtegies.

Getting 7/7 relics this late in the game does not make you good but means you have alot of play time and gil.

You guys havent even beat darnus yet which if i was going to advertise my linkshell (which I wouldn't as it seems kinda desperate and I wouldn't want people to switch servers only to find out they dont make the cut) then I would at least make sure to clear all content in the game.

A good respected linkshell will have applicants apply to them, they should'nt need to advertise everywhere.

that Luxanna's linkshell legacy beat ifrit like a month before you guys did lol aswell as being helpfull to the community with strategies/guides etc. If I was going to apply to any linkshell on your server it would be them, you cant compare youselves top 2 with them IMO.

Sorry I may be sounding harsh just advice I guess, you guys may get better as you are only a new shell, but you dont seem too appealing for a good player to leave their server to apply to you which makes me think you will only get average skilled players applying or complete A*holes who have been banished from all linkshells.

Good luck.

Legacy did beat ifrit a month before us as so did GT because we didn't even make our linkshell until almost 6 weeks after hamlets came out. Shows how much you truely know.

to go that far to make someone look bad, even though its true, people doing screenshots to make others look bad so they wont look as bad themself, thats people you stay away from, as they are too stupid for their own good. Kai, we know these guys are alts from you guys, especially since its posted from the same ip's, stop scamming and spamming, report your threads for deletion, and try again when we get a cross-server forum, it has gone far to far when you start talking down on people, faaaar away from the topic of YOUR thread.

people with less than 100 posts, are they elite? nah, normally not, a elite player is always updated. In other words, stop trying to make you look good by adding 10 post chars to the thread.

Could not have said this better myself. Not saying what has been said about your ls is true or not, but you're hunting down/photoshoping screenshots of people and slandering their name to make them look bad just because they did the same to you. Who is the better man here? You could have handled this a lot better.

Hey Runic good to see your back in XIV ^^
