What are the social Group RULES:
-MUST enjoy and have some history of Ranching (near-farming -- NO FARMERS, excess* playing of ?-new Recruits; * ?1/20th in a string)
-MUST be approved by BOTH clan leaders
-open and honest discussion about Ranching
-respect for other members; good natured joking is encouraged; nastiness or overly negativism is not
-must NOT have been a vocal critic of Ranching; which is different than Technical Farming
-no moles or infiltrators: must be willing to agree to be be banned (pre-nup) if join to cause problems
-other rules to be added later

EXPECTATIONS:
-no required to join any specific game(s), but expected to team up periodically -- once a month or more

this group wasn't made to take sign up's. It was created to bait half the site that are against this type of play and are fighting to get the farming rule changed.

Yup lol, it's a middle finger up to CC and its users. Also a messege to say "Look! We are getting away with farming! Aren't we very clever. Join our group and we will show you how!"

You would be making this easy with all this attention if that was the point. However, it's not. Do try to keep it on topic; if CC Admin will not allow it then they can say so themselves.

go take your personal opinions somewhere...not everyone who at one point qualified as a farmer is not able to play competitively.

I believe the group you are referring to existed to specifically target non-ranked/new recruits.

This would be a cook/cadet targeting group and quite frankly those interested in this "skirt the rules" type of gaming do not/would not need a usergroup to network with each other. Heck we have clans like KoRT (not a bait - just a theoretical example) that they can already use for this type of activity. So why wouldn't CC approve it?

Good luck to GLG and the other ranchers.

pretty much all of the former conquerors are in top clans so clearly they know what they are doing beyond just farming

To clarify:
-Farming = taking advantage of unranked ? new recruits
-Farmers are NOT allowed to join Jolly Ranchers
-Ranching is NOT aimed at unranked ? new rectuits

reply quoted seems like trolling -- and not about joining us

I am amazed that this player thinks he can read minds. He claims it's to target Cooks and Cadets -- but I've played neither (or few of) in a LONG time. Then he baits/flames KoRT when saying he isn't? Request he troll elsewhere.

can you explain why?

if one were to create a group called jolly ranchers that was dedicated to those who love jolly ranchers would things be different?

i dont really care to much about it being denied but im just curious the reason why

Ranching is poor sportsmanship. Just like not condoning any group that promotes farming, even the practice of ranching, or whatever some of you would call it, though it is not against the rules as of now, will also not be condoned or endorsed as a usergroup or clan, be it jolly or not.
