Government ls - Cross Server recruitment warning

[Eanae]

I got a notice from some friends that Government linkshell of Cerberus has been using level 1 mules on other servers to recruit members. There's even a rumor (I say rumor because this hasn't been confirmed) that they're even offering to pay your transfer fee for you. Just wanted to set a record straight that these guys are not to be trusted about what they tell you about their linkshell. They've claimed two Fafnirs, one which took 55 minutes to kill, and one that they wiped to. I'm not exactly saying not to join this linkshell as they really probably could use geared members to become better, and don't want to start shit in this thread. I'm just posting to let people know the full truth about their linkshell before getting stuck on Cerberus for three months after learning about how bad they really are, or at the very least knowing what you will be getting into before you transfer here.

ps: I asked permission before posting this, and would rather not have the thread go to shit, but this is Cerberus drama so I'm sure it'll be locked in a day.

I'd just like to add that it's probably never a good idea to go to Cerberus, regardless of what LS you're going to be in. Trust me, I tried.

Sup pimp! You know you miss Cerberus, its such a lovely server full of friends.

There's a local shell forming on Asura of the same name in the king circuit now, they should not be mistaken for this linkshell, but if both are recruiting at once, the asura one has the server in their URL name in their shouts, so as not to confuse. I checked out their URL/shout and it was different then the other nonsense.

used to be on leviathan as the same name

What sort of tall tales are they spreading about their LS to entice prospective members?

Official notice, then, to participants: spam posts will result in bans. Keep this on-topic.

Check Gimp/Confused Player Thread for some of their members then make your decission whether to apply or not. I wouldn´t apply to them ever but if you choose to apply...well....good luck.

well first off they call themselves an hnmls

[Eanae]

It's more not telling the full truth rather than straight out lying.

Not that, they count the ones they did on lev. as a kill.

[Taint]

Never heard of them.

I'm missing the point. Why is this even a warning? Just because a linkshell has aggressive recruiting practices doesn't make them unethical. They are rumored to have told some lies? C'mon. Is there any substance to the claims at all other than "some buddies told you some shit went down"? It all looks like hearsay with no grounds or basis... yet.
I'm not calling you a liar. I'm just saying that so far, there doesn't appear to be anything to warn anyone about.

[Furionstormrage]

Because people wouldn't want to be warned that they're joining an LS that claims to be a true HNMLS, yet has a horrible claim rate and, as of yet, can't kill Fafnir in under 55 minutes, or wipe trying to kill it?

I think that's the main point Eanae is trying to get across with this post, but I'm not involved in the HNM scene so all my information is secondhand.

[Ratatapa]

For once Eanae is trying to do something good

Aka saving people time and transfer delay so they dont come to cerberus to get fucked by a LS that just needs to disband.

[Eanae]

Like I said, I'm not saying to not joining. I'm saying know the situation before you jump into disappointment.

I think it's a valid warning given the circumstances you would endow buy joining, specifically server transfers. Sure sometimes your buddies lie or stretch the truth but you aren't bound by those tall tales. Whereas in this instance, if you are lured under false pretenses to another server, you have to pay a $25 and be stuck there for 3 months before having to pay yet another $25 to leave...

How many friends would you keep if everytime they lied or stretched the truth you had to throw away $25 and move to a new state (Cerberus = Wyoming) for 3 months? I wouldn't be a happy camper. No pun intended.

Couldn´t put it any better. This a thousand times over.
