This is a beautiful day, since it'll allow for some actual conversations to take place about real recruitment in that org. Unfortunately, there's an inappropriate amount of pressure from the top down in regards to recruiting in the LoL groups of the org, coming straight from their owner GJ. I think it might be in the benefit of you and your team to have some sort of conversation with that individual directly, with some of the people from the org in this thread there too, and reiterate this message to him directly. Otherwise, this will likely be a persisting issue. The responding "officers" are part of a group in the org that--when regarding LoL and some other game groups in it--have a high turnover rate due to not meeting number margins for obtaining new members/recruits. So your team can lay down boundaries, but the pressure from within the org can likely have members of it ignore those boundaries.

I would like to offer some clarification.

Specifically speaking, Shoskavitch, Player Recruitment isn't exactly the place to vent frustrations. I understand that you're only trying to inform players of how 'by-the-books' Damage Incorporated is. However this is starting to get out of hand and actions are already being made by myself and the other Wardens of Player Recruitment in relation to the organisation. Regardless of personal experiences, this has essentially boiled down to senseless drama in a section of the Boards that is solely designed for players that are LFG and to be honest, these last few comments have no place here as it has fallen under the definition of harassment because it's gone on for so long.

To Cerber47, Th3B3ar & any other members of DI, Damage Incorporated has already been informed of the posting rules here on Player Recruitment once before. You have been re-direct to this thread, which has called for a temporary suspension of all Damage Incorporated related threads as a result of breaking the rules after a warning and posting more than one recruitment thread. I'd also like to call attention to this quote made by you, Th3B3ar;

{quoted}

As far as posting, again you are misinformed. We are allowed to post again once a day in the open thread. It was changed last night.

You have either been misinformed or are straight out lying. There was no confirmation that anything was changed. You were being informed in the sense that you were already aware of the rules of the Player Recruitment section, and that as long as there's only ONE designated recruitment thread, you can post in that thread once a day. **We limited recruitment threads to one instance, every three days. Those threads can be bumped once every 24 hours per unique poster as long as the thread isn't a majority of bumps, otherwise it will be removed. This is in accordance with the Player Recruitment: Rules & Guidelines thread that is stickied at the top of the section, and its quite hard to miss or ignore. ** In special regards to Damage Incorporated, you were all already informed by Galacius of what you could post;

{quoted}

That's perfectly fine and as long as you guys use ONE thread to post that and comment in it (do not excessively bump it) then we are good to go!

However, there has been more than one thread in relation to Damage Incorporated since Galacius issued the notice: https://i.imgur.com/HTrFgGl.png

At least half of these threads are in line for removal. In fact, they will be removed after this post has been made in accordance with the direction we are going with, as this has gone on long enough.

If you wish to discuss this with us, use this thread, or seek us out in the Boards Moderation Discord and ping for a Roaming Warden in the #report-room channel. I'd also ask to make sure that when you come to our Discord, you'll have already posted in the Verification Thread.

Why do we need a notice saying some random organization is being punished? Praise publicly, punish privately.

May I comment on others post who are looking for teams and just tell him to check out DI, and that we have openings? Nothing long, but just "Hey we have opening for competitive teams on our teamspeak if you are interested, Let me know and I'll send you the link." Would that be ok?

ATTENTION TO THE WARDENS: The last post made by us, by a certain Specctre or "BloodyVagina" was not from us. Immediatly when I saw it I went to talk to Specctre to tell him to remove it but he told me he didnt do it. We are being victim of fraud at this point. As I mentionned previously, ever single one of my members know to not post on the boards, which means that that post was probably made by someone trying to hurt us.

I would like to bring it up to the warden's attentions that @bootydukes is no longer associated with Damage Inc. I am in in charge now of one of the DI's LoL groups. I have made it clear as to the boundaries you have set before us in the past week. IMO I highly doubt out leader, GreatJackal, is going to be able to talk with you guys. He is a very busy man atm with all the traveling and other busy work he is doing IRL.

I will assure you that anyone from my group will not continue spamming the forums for any reason.

Regardless how anyone looks at his entire situation, by the wardens publicly punishing this organization, they are do all the recruiting for them. The fact that everyone goes back and fourth on this thread makes people want to read it more. Then those people become curious about damage inc. This entire thread is a giant recruitment post for all of the League of Legends community, that everyone who looks at player recruitment will see and that is because it is pinned to the top of the page. So by you "punishing" -DI-, you guys are actually doing their job for them.

Th3B3ar10/22/2017, 6:44:31 AM1 votes

Honestly we want it down as well because we feel and got feedback that it is giving us a bad name. We do have people come to us and be like "Oh you guys are the ones on the board" then they leave. It is a punishment, and we fully understand why we are being punished. I have also been on the discord to discuss how to properly move on from this after the ban. We are doing our best to cooperate and have taken actions towards that in our own community. Looking back at 1 month ago to now I feel this ban was effective for the league community as well as making a point to us and the other communities within league.

Th3B3ar11/14/2017, 7:21:53 PM1 votes

So as of now I am allowed to post once every 3 days, correct?

Cerber4210/11/2017, 1:21:38 PM1 votes

Hi,

So I am one of the high ranks officers for DI, and I will now speak in the name of the clan to try and fix this messy situation.

First off, I have warned all my officers to not post any new threads in this Board, and that I will be the only one from now on to be using it. If other users are posting threads in here then they are either not from DI or they are not in my Division. We completely acknowledge the rule of one bumping per day and one thread every three days is understood, and will be respected.

As for the fighting itself, let me clarify what is going on. We recently had a big issue within the clan between 2 parties. Shoskavitch here seems to be apart of the side that got kicked out, even though I never heard his name which means either he was convinced or this is someone under a false account. I can honestly say that we sorted it all out and that the people that deserved to be kicked have been kicked. Now we have this messy situation on our hands where this second party is still trying to mess with us since it lost.

I can promise you will not see any more topics from no one else then me in the future, since as mentionned earlier, I am the only one that is allowed to do it from now. If there is any question you wish to ask I am the guy to go to,

I will add something more to the subject. For months now I have aleays tried to avoid spamming. What I have always done is whenever I post a new topic, I removed my older one, which I believe follows the forums rule, if i understand corrrectly. There is only one topic existing, so there is no spoiling/drowning, right? Its just relatively always on the 2-3 first pages of the new section since its “reuploaded”. If that does not follow the rules, tell me so i dont do it anymore.

We are 100% willing and wanting to follow the rules. The recent events have been only the result of messy intern situations. From this point forward I assure you that nothing troubling will come from us.

Galacius, is not the next to last post considered harassment? I feel as though I am being accused of something but then being gagged...
