Blackout Recruiting

Meet The Creator:

Hello, I'm Pungy1234, your retired leader and founder. My career in CP armies has been quite dynamic and by many peoples' point of view, quite strange. I joined the Nachos in 2009. I was in Nachos for a while but then they forced everyone to download the Nachos toolbar. This had also been right after I had gotten a talk at my school about not downloading things O_O. Because of this, I didn't download it and couldn't access the Nachos site. That seemed to be the end of my army career. Eventually, I quit CP and went to the world of Runescape. One day, I decided to start playing CP again (don't ask me why) and I remembered the Nachos. I found their site, and I was not forced to download the toolbar :) so I rejoined as a Private and I am now retired. I lead and founded the Global Defenders of CP. Thanks to Redd Kool, my dream became a reality. I led GD through the Flyer Wars, the First SWAT War, World War XII, the Second SWAT War, and many other encounters. I lead GD to become 8th on the Major Army Top Ten, though I couldn't have done it without my ever so loyal troops. Through leading GD, I became far from inexperienced and was inducted as a Small-Medium Army Legend by SMAC. When SMAC had "Legends Removals," I was not removed. I am also working as a Philosopher on Club Penguin Army Central (CPAC) and as the Head at Small-Medium Army Central (SMAC). Through journalism, I was able to further expand my reputation, and bring my ideas to the Club Penguin Army World. I bought GD a CSS and a Domain (gdarmy.com), which were both worth every cent (special thanks to Etac for coding). I hope to have the honor of leading this army to its golden age. Join the Global Defenders today!

This party is going to be huge.

135 players looking for Herbert.

As you can tell by the number of lonely Club Penguin players on that one CP chat… we have a lot of potential recruits there. I’ve never seen tracking chats be this huge in the first day into a party. Herbert is a very popular guy. I suggest we take advantage of the situation.

I’m not going to sit here and force y’all to recruit. That’s not the type of person I am. However, trying to recruit maybe at least one person would be pretty awesome. Let’s look at the facts, we have around ten people active in this army. If all of us contribute at least on active soldier,we’d be at around twenty. Considering this day and age in armies, that’s pretty awesome.

It’s quite easy. I’m not as great as a recruiter and I can get my fair share; ask Albert417, Ice Warriors‘ leader, he knows how many recruits I’ve brought in. The main thing to remember is to be friendly. Don’t overshadow them and force them to do anything they don’t want to do. Only recruit non-subscribers. Typically this type of xat user does not know how to take pictures. Do not link them to the site right away, either. Ask them if they want to join the world wide team known as the Global Defenders. Or the global army fighting for your rights. If that doesn’t work, ask if they are sure and if it’s still a no, use reverse psychology on them. Tell them that they might just not be up to the task, or something.

In all honesty, if you don’t want to go through the labor of recruiting, then change your name to be all GD-like and go to the tracking chats. Talk to people, make friends, and someone is bound to ask you what GD is. This way is more efficient in getting our name out to a mass number of people at once, all with making us look like a friendly group just trying to track with fellow players.
