Trimming the fat

Posts : 192 Join date : 2011-09-29

Alright guys, I think we all know that the team isn't overly active. Well I have good news and bad news. The good news is: the team will be getting much more active. The bad news is: only for a select group of people.

In order to become one of the better teams in the area, I have decided that we are going to trim the fat, aka the people who are inactive/don't post/don't contribute at all. I will, therefore, be cutting the team down to a cap of 10 players. Those players will be handpicked by me, and we will become much more active and professional. I'm talking patches, t-shirts, uniforms, the whole 9 yards. I have now a list of people I know I want to keep, and I will be messaging those people either on here or via text message over the weekend. Please do not get your feelings hurt if you are not picked, it's nothing personal.

LRU will be focusing on CQB. We do not have a practice field, nor do I see us getting one soon. A majority of our training will take place in game at weekend skirmishes at FAA, allowing us to learn and perform better for the larger ops. It has been a pleasure working with all of you.

Aero.

Was up all night working on it. Should have the list posted tonight. I'm gonna cap at 7, not counting Colt's group.

Allright, after long, hard, thought, this is the group that we are keeping:

Myself
Fyzix
Azrael
Tallahassee
Bodycount
Rookie (if he wishes to remain)
Triarius

Then we have Colt and his little group. They will be a side group, as Colt is raining new players there.

If you were chosen, congratualtions. If not, I'm sorry. If you were not chosen you have first dibs if a spot opens up.

YAY!! Hey if you want, I can make Colt his own group and add his whole squad.

We're going to use colts group as the "reserves" so if we don't have enough main team coming out we call them in.

Sounds good. Need me to do some removal?

Nah, we'll leave people on here just in case spots open up.

If nothing else,leave everyone else in case theres an opening for whatever reason.Makes keeping the team at full strength easier

True. I'm also considering taking down this forum and getting us use of the old LRU forums on NTA.

I like the plan Smile

Can't wait to start playing. I got the money for the patch, a little for the uniform, and should have some for the T shirt.

Planning on getting a side job so I can pay for my entry fees and bbs Smile
