    Not every decent player goes on the forums. And lots of high level players recruited from global have, for example gotten unlucky and had their clan go inactive. There are heaps of possible reasons why a high level player that doesn't go on the forums could be out of a clan. Yes, I have to switch between globals quite a bit sometimes before I find someone. But you can recruit people from global quite easily.
    Thanks icey for the sig!

    Ryan, we really don't need to travel this road, but...

    No, i cant guarantee that everyone will use the mute, but the point is that it's their choice. By the logic of your above statements, you are giving the right for an individual to determine what's appropriate for YOU/me/others to view. What offends that individual, may not offend you, me or anyone else. I, for one like having the freedom of choice, i.e., the mute button. While at its basic necessity, censorship has a strong moral foundation, but, the more you scratch at the surface, the more that moral foundation erodes into a missused power or control issue.

    If you scroll up and view the link in one of my previous posts in this thread, you will see that there are other options to the flawed system that is currently global.

    Global should be another social aspect of this game, as I believe it was intended. Where it is currently, it is little used by mature individuals who would otherwise have another place to chat. Once the innocent were targeted, it degraded into what we have now, something I'm suprised SC allowed to happen.

    Recruiting on the forums seems to have a less likely chance of success than on global. Considering, as you mentioned, good players on global already have good clans, and as I will mention, good players, the majority, on the forums already have good clans as well. This, and the fact that the forums are a very small example of the total population of the game.

    Muting is a terrible idea.
    Almost as bad as getting in an argument.

    They ask you questions or comment and get no response (you can't see their comments) but know you are still there trying to recruit others.
    Sure fire way to have noobs click report.

    Mute needs to be reconfigured so that if I mute someone then my comments are also muted from them as well.

    New clans recruiting, global is a pain. Hoping that dropping from Masters to Crystal will make me less of a Noob target, but who knows.

    Gotta love these blindsided arguments.

    You don't understand why someone is annoyed about losing access to something YOU don't care about.

    Many players do care, because you aren't one doesn't mean the problem doesn't exist.

    The report button is the problem, a bunch of idiots can collectively report you any stupid reason; such as been high level and the noobs are scared you will get their next new awesome member and you are banned...

    I don't quite get this, could u pls elaborate a bit more?
    Edit: ok I get what u meant, that's why removal of the report button is the easiest solution for now, troll will have nothing to pray on us, except the mute button, which is counteractive against them.

    I agree get rid of the report button because at the moment global is for people who arnt banned at the moment. A lot of the times i say hi nothing much happens so i switch global and find I'm banned. I also hate when u do get a bunch of people who won't report and we can actually chat i can't even say certain words even though they arnt mean or abusive can i please have the choice in what words i say because if they don't like it then they can leave

    A bit of a skewed arguement on your part, as the players who will report you for ignoring them are the same players who will report you for not allowing them into your clan, not joining their clan, being crystal+, for recruiting, because they can, etc., etc.

    I've been playing for a year. I switch with another elder as leader of our clan, I'm level 107, and currently in Crystal II.

    I don't often go to global, but when we need a few peeps, that is how I recruit.

    Maybe I'm alone, or maybe I'm lucky, but I've never been banned. *shrug*
