If You had 250 members a week ago, why there are only 83 users on Your forum, and some of them never visited forum again after registration ? edit: I found note about January cleaning in your callendar. So, there are just some inactive players, like in any clan that is intensively recruiting
Exactly, currently all bigger Outfits have a truckload of inactive players due to numerouse reasons. Apart from that it is really fun to play with the core-group, which is arround 20-30 players as of now (talking about users that are online *almost daily and use TS3 as well as ingame VOIP)
To answer your question, we were a very small squad outfit but very organised play and got popular quickly. With a growing outfit we needed a forum to manage things which is why there is a difference in numbers. Even still i dont think I'm being to bold in saying that we're perhaps the biggest NC outfit on lithcorp with squads continuously running. I help run this outfit, and its very difficult to sort through the outfit list removing inactive players. This is a new'ish game so many people install, join then leave. Which is very frustrating to control. You can't arrange the outfit member list in any order, (alphabetically, rank, last logged on). These simple tools would make it so much easier to clean out the list. Datfluttershy is correct that many large outfits share this problem, hopefully something in an upcoming patch can solve this issue.
This is the answer to all the problems of managing a large outfit. We have a 'daily' crew of about 25+ peeps on teamspeak- We have a group of players who join Jester platoon but aren't on teamspeak who number 70-100 We have a registered group of players on our forums who are 90+ Our total number of players now exceeds 350+ The problem is the sorting of people- if it was easier as pezza suggested- we would have kicked the inactives weeks ago. Ii refuse to go through a list of 350 names which aren't arranged alphabetically, rank, last logged on, until SOE releases a patch with management resources for not only Outfit Leaders, but platoon and even squad leaders.
TIP, use PS universe.. friend everyone in your outfit and you\ll see some info. Anyways.. tools are pretty bad. About your outfit, your the only NC outfit what I even resognice during fights.
