  Why do CC owners worry/care about this?

   

   

  Because is wrong. You keep going on about the if your members are happy they wont leave and if you have a good cc theres nothing to worry about .

  Forgetting the fact of why another owner would sit one day/night and think "you know what, i think i will go into another club and invite all their members".......Itswrong IMHO.

  Dead clubs where owners have not played since around 1976, then yes, anyway forums are to raise opinions, and thats everyones own opinions

  P.S The games about as flat as Shatners acting anyway :-)

  not trying to ride you,

  Good, not sure that pony could handle you both

   

  As for poaching, some CC owners (the owner of the last CC clash winner, for instance) just go about it this way. I don't like it, but like MB said, everyone is free to choose.

  Well...for those that don't know, I used to watch the original TV series when it aired (age check), but no, not a trekkie...just liked all the series/movies...well, didn't care for Deep Space 9, but...I digress:)

  The very definition of a real trekkie ^^^   Live long and prosper shipmate.

  LOL, yeah it does make interesting reading (or quick look at), he has not just gone to one club. He has walled a friendly message to an owner then 2 days later tried to poach one of his members.....I only know that as i know an owner and player on that list.

  Each to their own though!

  Think i might stay up a few hours tonight and do some walling.......now then which club ? lol

  I guess I just don't get it, I'm with Bags on this...

  I had at least 50 invites over the years to join a CC and never did...Jimbog hit me up to join his and I did, because I like him...

  If I got another 50 invites this week I wouldn't switch clubs....

  If someone leaves your club I highly doubt the wall post or invite is the "real" reason they left...

  Why the obsession with poaching, do club owners get some sort of benefit out of it I'm not aware of, if you have 50+ members what is the difference if 2-3 leave?

  ^^^^THIS^^^^

  A happy member will not leave, if they do the reason is not a wall post.

  Over the years I can seriously say I think I have only had a couple of invites.....ummm probably says something about me lol.(PS I do not want any either).

  But like I said, there is an unwritten etiquette about approaching players who are in a club. If it is a friend, by all means ask them privately.
