Listen up. This is how we are doing recruitment into the Squigs from here on in. We will be discussing candidates, as a clan, in private. Every member gets to have their say, which I think is how it should be. At a point when we feel there is enough support for bringing in the new member, he or she will be brought in, simple as that. I'll make a post in their candidate thread saying something along the lines of, welcome to the Squigs. Throw on the tags.
    What will no longer happen, is discussing in the public candidate threads. The person wishing to join will make their thread and say what they want to say. At that point, I will post, saying that I've seen their thread, and they are being discussed. No candidate thread should have more then 2 posts. If people can't follow this rule, I will simply lock the threads once I respond to them, and unlock them when the candidate is accepted or rejected.
    If you have not been around the community and active in the community, on the servers and in vent, please do not apply. Become active, get to know the members of the Squigs, then apply for the clan. If someone who is not active or simply too new, I will tell them that in their thread, and ask them to reapply later.
    If someone in the community, not in the Squigs, feels strongly about an applicant and wants to "vouch" for them, here's what you do. You send me a steam message, catch me in the SB or on vent. I'll keep your vouch in mind. Though the vouches that truly matter are the ones from the members of the clan.

 This is a fairly simple process to follow, so I'm asking nicely that everyone does from here on in.

I think this is a great process for the clan.  Not only does a live discussion about a focused point stay on topic, it contributes tons more opinion and weighing of candidates.  Also, if I assume right; then the meetings to discuss a candidate should help unify the clan and be an event that most should be enthusiastic about; whether they be yay or nay sayers. (Assuming they stay somewhat sophisticated.) 
IMO, a really great new system, I just hope that the "meeting times" (if I understand you right) go smooth.

Edit: Oh wait, so the "discussion" is just going to be in the private clan.  Oh well, that works too!

I really like this new format. I always felt the vouch system to be somewhat broken.

Yeah, as has been recently stated, vouches lost their meaning.

Thanks Lancer. My only concerns are that people whose app thread falls off the first page won't get discussed, although if someone is really making a good impression, it won't matter where their thread is.

I have been cleaning up old threads in here, and will get it up to date once I get some free time this weekend. I'll make sure every applicant who is active in the community gets discussed.
