I currently am the lead of a team I inherited and have began to run into problems recruiting. There is a pretty big gap between the two highest members as far as MP vs the majority of our team (3000+) could this be causing the problem with recruiting and wars? Any advice welcome

@smie83 Yes, it could. The total team MP I believe is taken into consideration for matchmaking. It would be best to try and close the gap as quickly as possible. that said, Global Stompers (my team) is trying to do that and it can become a problem to recruit. We have recently let our highest MP member go, to see how much a difference it makes. You don't have to get rid of the highest people. I would keep just the active players, set the minimum to join at the level you want and try to get people to move up as fast as possible.

My mother and I are currently the two highest memebers she’s at 8096 and I’m at 7056 next we have 3 in the 3000+ range and the rest being 1000+ right now our whole team is active and our req for MP is 1000 so my concern is that myself and my mother are throwing the wars off and currently we are having no luck being able to recruit and our number are quickly dropping

@smie83 Here are some suggestions.

1. Change minimum MP to 1500.
2. Keep everyone who is currently below 1500, but don't let anyone new on.
3. Making the team open may help a little with recruiting, especially when you are not active.
4. Create a standard post and paste it into the global chat at least once an hour, but no more often than once every 5 minutes, otherwise people might think you are spamming.
5. Create a thread on the forum for your team name called "team name" Recruiting or something similar. Replace "team name" with your team name obviously.
6. Encourage your team mates to help you recruit.
7. Paste your recruitment post into the team chat so that they know the type of requirements you have in mind.
8. Remember that there are multiple global chats, so exit and restart the game and post in each chat, but I would also wait at least 5 minutes before moving to the next global in case people want to talk.
9. Remember it is an ONGOING process.

Awesome thanks for the great advice 😊😊👍
