Recently I've been receiving invites to perm more than usual. So today we're weighing the pros and cons of being either a clan hopper or permanent member. This thread's purpose is to inform the viewer on making a choice of becoming either a perm or a clan hopper. Regardless, it's completely up to you. Let's begin. CLAN HOPPER PROS 1. Freedom to roam multiple clans whenever you want 2. No responsibilities like reaching a certain hit amount per day 3. You meet a lot of interesting, unique people 4. You could hop aboard a merc train 5. No osw's 6. You could learn interesting things in random cc's 7. Clans usually welcome any assistance provided and send thanks via cc 8. PvP paradise 9. Good for hunting equipment 10. Grow at your own rate 11. Able to dump troops sooner than perm CONS 1. You may need to assist one of those people you met (responsibility) 2. It's pretty lonely sometimes :cry: 3. No osw's 4. Cc's could be dead 5. Could be kicked if you're inactive after an eb ends 6. PvP perma farm and with no clan assisting you, cf terms might be worse 7. You could always be denied entry to a clan 8. Obligation to stay active and assist friends 9. Become a part of a merc guild and you are reporting to someone 10. Growth can be restricted on the tier of eb and failure of eb PERMANENT MEMBER PROS 1. Become a part of an organised group of skilled people 2. You could become highly ranked eventually 3. You receive osw experience 4. You learn alot about the game from fight mechanics to the ally market 5. Make a lot of new friends 6. Good for hunting equipment 7. Have clan friends always willing to assist you 8. PvP is supported and you just started osw 9. Access to clan banks 10. Rule system that benefits you (RARE) 11. Access to HTE depending on whether clan pays for seals/hunts drops CONS 1. Become a part of a trainwreck in slow motion 2. You have great difficulty being noticed and ranking up 3. OSW's bro, make it stop 4. Make a lot of new enemies 5. Get des(s)erted (I'm taking banana SPLIT) [clan dies/disband] 6. Obligation to stay active 7. You're always under someone's jurisdiction 8. Bad for hunting eq if your clan is failing ebs 9. The interview process could be daunting 10. CC could be dead 11. Got to send out that daily clan ad spam 12. No pvp support (depending on clan) 13. No clan banks 14. Rule system that restricts you 15. Clan has little/no access to hte's or Tier 13+ Ebs CONCLUSION Whether you choose to become a perm or a clan hopper the choice rests with you. I hope you found this thread informative and has assisted you in your decision. Feel free to suggest more and for which category. If I find it is appropriate I'll include it and you give you a shoutout like [Added/suggested by Sasuke_Uchiha] I'll even let you customise it lol If you have any disagreements with one of the pros or cons, please pm me and we will negotiate cf terms.

Re: Clan Hopper vs Permanent Member Great guide, OP! I feel that being a Perm Member is a better choice, because I was a hopper for a long time. I just didn't like being a hopper, I guess...

Re: Clan Hopper vs Permanent Member Merc dispatchers are really strange like that. In the end they follow a hierachy so it would suggest a perm system and they MUST report home on a specific day or two. However they travel A LOT. So confusion :lol:
Re: Clan Hopper vs Permanent Member Or you could join a clan that dont mind if you come and go . Hmmm
Re: Clan Hopper vs Permanent Member I've been the nomadic gypsy soul and the home body hermit shut in. Honestly, I preferred being a perm while I had it. When you find the right clan to perm at, it doesn't matter if you're inactive often or annoying in CC, you'll always have a spot. Good thing A8 is still alive. Right guys... RIGHT?!
Re: Clan Hopper vs Permanent Member Marauder pro: Can grow at your own rate Con: You have to grow at a slow rate if you don't pay for seals. Perm pro Access to HtE whenever the clan wants Con Clan is full of people with no access to seals
Re: Clan Hopper vs Permanent Member ^As well as hte's go really fast for perms and hoppers (con or pro if a b2b hte clan) Edit:but there is no way to include that, oh well. Added
