As i was discussing with a new VS ol a few days ago, if you really intend to be the best you must be selective in recruitment. That means establishing a very high standard and trialling recruits to ensure they meet it. I understand better than most how difficult it is to get an elite clan off the ground, particularly in a game like PS where there are already established to quality clans who'll be looking to take your best members.

If i were you I'd get my friends and make your 'core' excellent then establish your rep (as MirrorBOY and i had to) because then the good players will come to you! At that point your recruitment procedure takes over and you select the best of the best. If i were to start over with the desire to create a top clan that's how I'd do it.
Shit, MirrorBOY brings back some unpleasant memories :P.

Yeah I figured that it will be difficult to get this off the ground. While I want Crux to be somewhat elite, I also want it to be somewhat open. I'm shooting for somewhere in between - not too elite, not too selective. I will be thinking of ways to make it so my pilots don't suck and there are enough of them to still have an outfit.

I really want to be open to aspiring flyers as well and help train them up so they can fly with us. I think the best decision with that would be to disallow them from flying ops with us until their mentor (one of the better pilots) has approved they are fit to fly with us.
