Buzz Boom – Thank you for reaching out. I appreciate your sincerity. Trying to keep track of 49 other players is sometimes challenging, and it may have been an oversight. I do not remember everyone that was an original part of the clan (first 12 or so), but you detailed enough to know the challenges that we went though in the beginning. I do know that you had been around for a little bit, and that is appreciated. What I did before booting you was communicate to the entire clan through the clan chat interface, so see if anyone saw a message concerning why you may have been absent. I try to pay attention to what everyone does and contributes, but I do not go as far as making a spreadsheet or manually tracking…its a game, not a real-life job or academic project.
My observations may be wrong, and if they were, I apologize for the oversight and inaccurate observation. What I observed (or perceived, rather), is that it looked like you were contributing 1 point per match or event for a while (several events). That was the issue, and again, I apologize if I am incorrect in this. I asked the other clan members, and sent several messages to you in the chat asking you to contribute more, given your star ranking and flock power. No one, to include myself, received any correspondence or communication from you, so I made the decision to boot you.
I did, about a month ago, requested a minimum contribution from each clan member, in order to make it more fair to everyone. Those that chose to give more could, as some have the gems and others were chasing the pearls in the top 3 or 5 places in the events. This is not a hard requirement, but a requested minimum. I booted one other person prior to you because they would constantly tell the clan to push to complete, while only giving 1 point themselves.
There are always exceptions, such as being away for work, out sick, etc…and I will always be OK with that. What I do ask for is communication. I wish you would have told me beforehand that you were going to be away for a while, or on sparingly for a while due to work, life, or whatever. I am guessing by your name, @divamd, that you are a Doctor?? If that is the case, I definitely understand that you will be away at times.
Without turning this into a novel, I will end it with this…given your message to me and the clan above, I will gladly let you back into the clan once there is an opening, which may be soon. In your case, I will leave a slot open for you if you want it once it becomes vacant. I normally do not give 2nd chances (I have been burned in real life enough), but I believe this to be a miscommunication, or lack of communication somewhere (not assigning blame or fault either way…it is what it is). All I ask is that there is a better attempt at communication within the clan chat. Even if there is an understanding that you may disappear at times due to work, I am OK with that.
A little about me real quick…I have an MBA, and was previously in the military and have been in combat. Communication is extremely important to me, in life, business, and even in the game. All I ask from anyone is to communicate and let me know if you will not be on, or on as much for a given amount of time, as a courtesy. Also, I saw your friend request through here and have accepted. Thank you again for reaching out..I am sorry if I made a mistake due to misunderstanding the situation, and if you are still interested, I look forward to you rejoining us.
