Am I the only one who finds it annoying that people post recruitment threads in server forums they arnt on them selves?
Why don't they just post in the general discussion part and put up tags to navigate it.

Probably because moderators tend to move/close those threads when they get put in General discussion.
But, no, I don't find it annoying. If they're willing to take players from other servers it's relevant/valid information.
I find it annoying because you end up having to scroll through a ton of them to find decent threads, but there's really no general server/recruitment forum for them to go in so people just have to keep copy pasting multiple threads to advertise a single group.
I don't find it annoying at all. Often times, people are very willing to switch servers if they find a good group. There's nothing wrong with recruiting, IMO.
I wish there was a recruitment community forum for those willing to transfer (like the recruitment subreddit). That way we don't need to spam several different forums just to be seen.
Aye, and catch a 10-day temp ban for "spamming" like I did when I was trying to recruit cross server.
I posted a recruitment thread in 10 different server sub forums over the course of 2 weeks. I didn't do it over night so I didn't think it would be an issue but apparently I was wrong.
Now I just have 1 recruitment thread on my home server sub forum and I will respond to individuals looking for a FC in each sub forum.
Yeah which is also a mess because then you're sifting through tons of other stuff too, more often than not it's become:
> Thread "Looking for static"
> Mouse over and hope the popup text says their job
> If it doesn't open the thread and see
> Be disappointed it's not what you're looking for and move on
I would love a moderated recruitment forum with the same rules as the xiv recruitment subreddit. Simply because there are many that don't use reddit and vice versa.
EDIT: and I really don't enjoy spamming the same copy-paste recruitment post every time anyway :/
A few months back I posted in three forums around the same time, they didn't ban me but I got a warning and two of them were deleted.
The thing I find most annoying about it is when I go to my servers forum and see something for a static recruitment I get excited because id like to join one for progression but then it's like
GOD .... IT ITS FOR ANOTHER SERVER.
all ways a big let down.
I'll personally apologize to you if I end up making a thread on your server forums =3
I find this really really annoying. My server isn't really big on progression but that is slowly changing. Theres an fc and several ls's on my server that is dedicated to helping people get their clears. In my eyes, it is kinda pointless to transfer to another server. People please stop doing this. Especially the people that come to a server group/forum just to make snide comments as well -.-
