This is not a gang bashing thread... per se.
It has come to my attention that there are a few new gangs trying to run CC, and as a still-unaffiliated player I feel I can provide an almost neutral point of view.
There appears to be a growing number of new gangs, and many of them are full of chicken sh--s. I don't know any of the leaders of these gangs, so I can't speak about character where leadership is concerned, but my experience so far is that the pawns in these chicken gangs do not communicate or attempt to make peace with anyone. They do not even attempt to take revenge after they're given direct links via news feed.
Instead, they immediately contact their gang leaders and put hits on anyone who makes more than two peeps on their news in one day. Players who do this are nothing more than lazy chickens. They can't even be bothered to ask if they might have inadvertently done something that pissed you off. They just run and tattle to their mommies.
There is a lot that could be said about that kind of behaviour, but in order to keep this post from being too drawn out, I'll just leave it at this:
Calling out gangs on the forum is not calling out an individual player and I am unable to find any literature advising against doing so. Therefore, feel free to use this thread to call out some of the lesser-known, up-and-rising new gangs on their chicken sh--, cowardly actions.
(I'd start the list, but then this would just seem like a big rant about me being pissed off with certain gangs. I might be a tad annoyed with some, but that's not the reason I'm posting this. )
TL;DR: Many new gangs, many chicken sh--ts joining new gangs. Said chickens don't attempt peace or even communicate if you hit them, they just tattle to the "leaders" and put you on the hit list. Unsure about character of leaders, never met/interacted with any of them... Nobody communicates.
