Given the recent numbers of cabal membership:

CABAL WARS
Members Influence
FORTRESS 28 90 %
OUTLANDER 25 97 %
BATTLE 39 92 %
EMPIRE 23 85 %
SCION 11 53 %
NEXUS 16 87 %
TRIBUNAL 21 94 %


When do you decide "okay, no more members for cabal XX for awhile"? Is it a set amount, or do you change it depending on the situation?

I have my own guidelines because it is usually a very popular cabal. I usually get rid of the folks who don't put in enough time if the cabal is a little fat. The numbers right now are within the norm though.

Empire and Tribunal are feeling the pinch numbers wise right now.

I can also understand keeping the numbers lower because Outlanders is one of the most frustrating cabals to raid.

Note that those #s include imms and heroimms. Truthfully, I think putting in the Village App quest sort of made Battle the new Empire...ever since we did that Empire's #s dropped from the 40's to mid 20's and Battle usually hovers around 40, most of which is apps.

I honestly didn't realize that Battle numbers include apps. I thought those numbers reflected those actually in already.

A lot of people seem to jump on a particular bandwagon, but it serves as a deterrent for me to join a particular cabal.

Have you thought about similar incentives for people to join cabals with fewer members? Not that there needs to be 40 Scions, but it would be nice to see their numbers hit the 20s. Same with Nexus.
