Title: Darkfall Recruitment
Post by: Tbone on January 08, 2009, 01:54:47 am
I figured I would start a new thread for this since the information is important.

Recruitment will probably begin in the next day or two. Here's what we're doing.

I'll drop threads on all the major forums that look something like this:

Subject: The light to help you on your dark fall...


"Our world is full of chaos. I imagine someone like you feels like they are taking a dark fall into a pit of despair. Don't worry...you don't have to be alone. We can be your light. But be warned: this offer (http://darkfall.thefuriousangels.com) ends January 21st at midnight CST. The choice is yours."

Our darkfall recruitment will begin at http://darkfall.thefuriousangels.com . Right now there's nothing on that page, but you can see the progress of our flash intro here:

http://jwnettesheim.startlogic.com//Tunnel.html

Please be aware that is still a work in progress.

The flash intro leads them to a link where they can go here:

http://darkfall.thefuriousangels.com/apply.html

Those curious enough will also read up on this:

http://darkfall.thefuriousangels.com/information.html

We have a whole system in place to organize the recruitment data. Be looking for notifications of interview times soon assuming we get some takers.

You'll notice several changes to our member site as well to accomodate Darkfall. More changes will occur as we get into the game and potentially get more Darkfall members. There is also a seperate portal to enter the site at http://www.thefuriousangels.com which is less Matrix related and more straight-forward with our gaming affiliations.

With our participation in MxO dismal at best these days, I figure there's no harm in a sneak peek at what we're doing and what we've got in store, although I still don't want active advertisement for our involvement in either of Darkfall or The Agency in MxO.

I have to give special thanks to Adad and Lithium who have been working pretty relentlessly the last 48 hours or so to help me churn out all this content that you see. I've also been very excited to see others around in Teamspeak and giving input and getting into the hype of Darkfall. Hopefully we'll see some fresh faces in here soon as well as some familiar ones! If you have some feedback for our recruitment stuff, get it in now before we go live with it!

"dark fall into a pit of despair" might read better : fall into a dark pit of despair.

I appreciate the desire to keep darkfall next to one another however I think it might look better split out a little. Just a thought as it were.

Ok, everything's up at http://darkfall.thefuriousangels.com. Feel free to test it if you'd like. Depending on when I see Adad next, we'll probably do a few more adjustments to the flash but it's in good enough shape as is that we'll probably go live with it tonight.

Not 10 minutes after I posted, I had this little interlude. A good start, I suppose:

Quote from: "Ares Telgar"
Tbone,
Greetings, I am Ares Telgar of the Imperial Republic of Argos and have been going around trying to compile data for the Republic's databases.  If I could have a few minutes of your time I would like to ask a few questions.

(1) What races are allowed in your clan? From the questionnaire on your website, it looks like all.
(2) What type of playstyle do you see your guild as? Examples: pk, anti-pk, nomads, mess-around, saviors...
(3) How many active members are there in your clan? A rough estimate is fine.
(4) Can you tell me one or two interesting facts about your clan?

Thank you for your time,
Ares Telgar, Citizen of the Republic

P.S. Nice intro into your website, very original from what I've seen scouting for my information.



Hello Argos,

Well, you are a curious fellow, eh? I hope you'll understand my need for privacy. In a world such as ours, it is hard to know who to trust. Since you took the time, however, I will try to entertain you the best I can...

1. We do not discriminate. However, if you come from a background known for selfishness and treachery, you'll find it will be harder to fight with us.

2. We will relentlessly hunt down those that must be brought to justice. I'm sure that many will try to stand in our way. They will regret it.

3. This information shall remain undisclosed at this time.

4. It would spoil all the fun for me to tell you about us. You can do more research now or learn about us in due time. Either way, I promise we won't disappoint. ;)


I shall be doing my own research on your operation. I hope that perhaps we can benefit each other down the line. Time will tell, I suppose...

I'm sure we'll be seeing more of each other soon, Ares....


-Tbone

I remember reading somewhere that the whole "Dark fall into a pit of despair" Sounded much better as "Falling into a Dark pit of despair"

...  or am i taking crazy pills?

But alas, the name of the game is not "Dark pit"

As a new recruit, I'll freely admit that the flash intro and tidbits thereafter sealed the deal with me.  I would have fully supported the idealogy in any event, but the style in which you present it is great.  

I even showed my wife the intro, and she said it gave her goosebumps  :)

they know its not a pirate game, right?  wtf...
Title: Re: Darkfall Recruitment
Post by: Tbone on January 19, 2009, 01:34:51 am
Hahahaha...ok, a few things.

Why is Jack Sparrow filming from his parents' house? Shouldn't he be on a beach or something?

Being Jack Sparrow for pirates would be the same as if we had tried to be Neo for the Matrix.

I do appreciate the creativity of trying something different for recruitment and ballziness to look like an idiot in RL for people who will be killing you in game.

I fell asleep during the video. I couldn't hear what he was saying. Ours is better ;)

If they do actually stick to RP and not degenerate into a bunch of roflcopters, they could make for a good nemesis. They are building a dumb zerg guild (even called a herd) with the goal being to grief as many people as possible. It'll be like shooting fish in a barrel. And maybe they'll appreciate our style if they stick to RP.

The fact that Nioctsolu has a past with these guys makes it even more fun.

First off, I understand each and everyone of us has a little dork in them, but there are levels or dorkdom to which you should NEVER decend.  Badly impersonating one of the most awesome anti-heroes there has ever been was only his first fail.  Taking yourself seriously while doing so, was his second EPIC fail.  

Killing his digital representation will be priceless.

Post by: likwidtek on January 19, 2009, 11:26:51 am
ok ok ok give him a little credit, his impression was ok.  It would have been much better had it only been 30 seconds.

Aside from that, filming it in the room he occupies in his mom's house is priceless. :)  I'd like to kill them now.

Captain Jack has done a great job of giving us an opportunity for FA’s to become well-known server wide very quickly.

Everyone will remember that this was the day that Fallen Angels fucked up Captain Jack Sparrow.
