Here are my 2 cents from someone who was recently kicked due to the whole war debacle.

When calc decided to kick half its members, it was left with a pretty serious hole as I honestly can't imagine them being able to farm the same level of respect. They've dropped a lot of contributing members (even the sub-par ones) and combined with the fact that 25% of the current members couldn't even meet the set requirements, there is no way they will win territory either. The current team is based off one territorial war which they lost even with the help of PT. If whoever is buying this thinks they're getting a nice rounded faction who actively enjoy the faction life, guess again as even the person who posted this thread did not meet the requirements of the previous two wars.

Honestly, the original Calc is gone as the dedication in running the faction has disappeared and that a majority of the core group have departed. It would be better to sever all ties to the past and actually start a new beginning by giving Calc to the highest bidder. This would mean that the existing members would actually be getting the best return (assuming the money is evenly split as stated) as it should be assumed that a new leader would do as he pleased once in power as Xaviour did.

For anyone who thinks I'm just spouting nonsense, I was the fourth oldest member in Calc before everyone was kicked

Calculated Mass Kick · · 7 likes


For everyone interested, I will shed light on a few things people should see before forming an opinion about the mass kick and whether it was a good idea or not?

Firstly, I understand where the decision came from as many of those kicked did not meet the requirements consistently which can be seen from the war scores above. As a HOF faction, I understand the need to weed these people out as they are dead weight in the sense that they do not contribute and are usually easy fodder when there are proper wars. In the case of Darktinman and Oldmighty, just seeing their previous contributions to war already demonstrate the need to kick out members as they respectively contributed 21 and 12 hits each which is clearly sub par by most HOF standards.

However, it is clear to see that the move to kick everyone who did not participate to what was required with the territorial war was rather brash based on the movements of members who have been kicked.

Many of the members who show value during wars for respect have quickly been snapped up by other factions with some even moving to more promising factions. This clearly indicates that there is still a lot of value in these members which have been disregarded by Calc. Based on the decision for a mass kick, I personally believe that the current leadership team want to create an extremely strong faction ruled by an iron fist with no tolerance for errors. While this is good in theory, I believe it is an unreasonable expectation as both Kingstown and Oldmighty have explained how it requires strong players to compete and extreme levels of coordination. Sending out faction messages over three days doesn't really do much to establish anything especially when strategies are not properly implemented when you live in different time zones. That being said, it is sad to see Ghosty's legacy come to this as I know how hard it was for him to establish proper protocols within the faction that made it successful. It took a lot of trial and error to even establish a proper warring procedure. The current leadership team should also take this into account as you can not build a proper procedure for territorial warfare in a day.

Sorry if this appears bias but I will admit that I am very salty after being kicked.

To be honest, I am actually very disheartened by this move as certain members who did not meet the requirements were kept while others who did have been kicked. While I understand the need to weed out the "leechers", using only 1 territorial warfare result to make that judgment does seem to be rather hasty when over 60% of the faction did not even make the quota in the previous war. As someone who has never fallen short of the quota in spending over 1.3k days in the faction (with the exception of this territorial war), it is clear that loyalty does not mean much and it will be interesting to see the new direction that the calc leadership will take.
