PRIVATE PRIDE [social][recruiting]

[Dublanous1]

Hello Everyone.
Private Pride is about how privates, cooks, and cadets usually get "Mocked" or people automaticly think they aren't good at CC. What we will do in the clan is train those who need it, (strategy) but also discuss how to deal with being "mocked" or having people think they aren't good automaticly from seeing them as a private 1st class or below. I have an example here: (this actually happened, the bolded stuff is important):

2009-03-15 16:55:38 - _______: gg guys... I should've known better than to join with a cook.
2009-03-16 03:23:29 - __________: thnx...u 2...hope he atleast made ya a good meal.....lol
2009-03-16 07:00:52 - Dublanous1 [team]: I am not a cook
2009-03-16 07:04:14 - Dublanous1: guys, I am not a cook! I am going up slowly but I won't be a cook anytime soon, besides, you two ganged up on a private just because you could get cheap points from that, and you chose to join, so stop making fun of me, I am going to be a 1st class soon
2009-03-16 07:05:07 - Dublanous1 [team]: attack cameroon>>Sudan next turn
2009-03-16 07:45:49 - _______ [team]: We've already lost....
2009-03-16 07:46:48 - _______ [team]: I may be the BEST team player on this site. Go look at my win/loss record in team games. Especially doubles - 2 teams.
2009-03-16 07:47:19 - _______ [team]: By not doing 2 things, you've put us completely behind the 8 ball.
2009-03-16 07:47:43 - _______ [team]: 1. You didn't break Blue in Europe which would've saved +4 troops.
2009-03-16 07:48:07 - _______ [team]: 2. You attacked me which cost me 3 troops and you at least 3 troops
2009-03-16 07:48:34 - _______ [team]: 3. You've had some stacks to eliminate their territory bonus but haven't attacked aggressively enough with them.
2009-03-16 07:49:03 - _______ [team]: 4. Going back to (2.) it also cost ME TROOPS on my territory bonus.
2009-03-16 07:49:09 - _______[team]: WE'VE LOST
2009-03-16 07:50:54 - _______ [team]: It's okay though. I wasn't very good when I started playing on here. But I didn't get to this rank by mistake. You should learn from the more experienced players.
2009-03-16 07:53:06 - _______ [team]: ....and to be fair, we may have lost anyway. BTW, do you have BOB installed?
2009-03-16 11:14:36 - _______: First Class... I'm ranked 421 on the site and about to win 5 other games. Maybe I know how to play.
2009-03-16 17:14:37 - Dublanous1 [team]: Yeah, you know how to play, but you don't need to get hyped up about it
2009-03-16 17:17:34 - Dublanous1 [team]: This is for fun, a friendly online game, and I don't want to get critical about it, so what your s0o0o good, just calm down, this is a game, not your life
2009-03-16 17:18:05 - Dublanous1 [team]: In other words--I dont want to make this into an fight
2009-03-16 18:35:23 - _______ [team]: Whatever. If you want to be a bad teammate that is your choice.
2009-03-16 18:37:49 - _______ [team]: Just pointing out that you cost us the game. It's a lot more fun to at least have a chance to win.
2009-03-16 18:38:26 - Dublanous1 [team]: I'm not a bad team-mate, I'm just not "As good as you"

(I took out the names of the players to keep their privacy, but this did happen).

See? This really happened, and I want to do something about it, because I'm sure I'm not the only one.
Please Join! You can help train people private 1st class and lower or if you are private 1st class and lower you can be trained to not only do well on CC, but to deal with people mocking you!

To join you do not need to be any certain rank, but the people above Private 1st classes will help out the ones that need help! (no requirements)
So just post a reply below and I will let you in, or go to the usergroups tab in the control panel and chose to join Private Pride, it is an open group!

i am in

[owenshooter]

um, why don't you just join the society of cooks which Wacicha has run for quite some time? they even have their own forum in which to learn how to play games and to talk to other people of like ranks, and higher ranked mentors that can answer questions. i believe the society of cooks is probably far more organized and can offer much better "training" than a random group of privates forming together as a social group. just my two cents...-0

p.s.-if you want to poke around the society of cooks, here is the link:

This isn't just privates, this is open to everyone, and it isn't just about strategy, its also about the CC bullies and how to deal with them, take your comment off as it doesn't deserve to be there. The society of cooks is about strategy, and this clan is about a bit of both strategy and dealing with CC bullies, so hound out some other clan. This is for a good cause and you are making it look bad, please take your comment off.

I left CC and deatbeated 80 or more games, so my rank went down 1.5k points or so, do you guys think you might help me out by letting me join? I'll need all the new strategy I can get to get my points back, and I thought this would be the best place to get strategy tips for people like me. Awesome clan!

OK WE ARE BACK IN BUISNESS! WE WILL JUST Tune out owenshooter if he comes back.

so you want to forge the history of this usergroup to make it look pure even tho it is no where close?
sounds like someone needs to learn a huge lesson about their usergroup, if the people joining will be swayed against joining just because of owen's post maybe you should reconsider making this usergroup at all.
also, if you think that you are getting bullied as a private or below, why not up your score? i was a cook once upon a time, and i did suck. Its a pattern, people realize that if they want to have fun they need to play games they arent already screwed in.

lol. besides the only way for that post to be deleted is if a mod were to delete it, he is not able to do it himself

[Dublanous1]

oh, yeah I guess you can only delete it if someone else hasn't read it.

[LED ZEPPELINER]
