Default Recruitment Advice for AG

Hey Maliant,

I'm sure you're a little on the fritz at the moment with your guild falling apart and all but I'm here to offer you some advice on how to create more effective recruitment posts.

Do you like loot like this https://wiki.project1999.com/Primal_Velium_Fist_Wraps?

Or perhaps

https://wiki.project1999.com/Flayed_...Skin_Leggings?

Then join the only guild that will allow you to get these in 2019 and going into the next decade. Join our COTH bot Army and be trained by the likes of Furoar so good he single handed toppled the former #1 guild on the server. We will even train you to properly levitate and have a culture that promotes learning and friendship over toxicity.

We also look out for the little guys helping with epics, faction groups, fun exp adventures such as Littul’s numerous adventures featured on reddit etc.

So, what are you waiting for? Apply today!

Two more primal 1 handers added to our arsenal.

Grats Astatine who passed on many and finally was forced to accept one.

Also grats to Sarkana on his own https://wiki.project1999.com/Primal_Velium_Warsword

Proud of our peeps and all the effort they have put in to get to this point.

Apply today to join a great crew of folks.
You should begin by asking yourself, "what am I trying to accomplish."

It seems to me that you linked the very best individual pieces of loot your guild has gotten all year with the intent of having someone exclaim "oh wow, maybe if I joined AG I could get that loot too."

The reason that strategy is working so poorly for you is because the individual who would be persuaded to join your guild because of the loot you linked will than ask themselves, "how likely is it that I will obtain that loot when I join AG?"

They then will realize that joining AG actually gives them the worst chance for end game loot. By joining Riot or AM their chances of receiving the best kind of loot are significantly higher because those guilds receive the loot at a more frequent pace.

So instead of trying to show off the few items every year that you are able to snag, maybe you should go with the friends and family approach.

By having a more honest recruitment messaging established I believe you may start to recruit the kinds of players you will enjoy playing with.

Yours truly,
Tofat

But didn't realize that this is more like... P99's 4chan or something.

except instead of random anons its a shark attack of a small clique that posts here all the time. so he's doubly fucked.

Judging from RnF, it is pretty likely they can get this loot:

Is it true those primal warswords were from one day, not one year as posited by OP?

Are you saying OP's perspectives are tinted by how few primals are available to regular members of his guild?
