Hi, I'm a new player to MWO and I would love to join a CGB unit. The Bears have always been my favorite clan.
I"m an old hand at team based game, was even a raid leader for WoW back in college for a while. I'm also a Mech Warrior fan in general, I played the first one on my dad's old Tandy PC when I was a kid and have loved mechs ever since. Even read my share of the novels.
I'm 31, live on the East Coast of 'Merica. I only play on nights and/or weekends due to work.
I'm steadily becoming a better pilot though I need some more work before I would call myself 'average.' I love being on a good team and I will do the jobs others don't like, such as rear guard, or scout. (So far I LOVE being a sneaky scout calling out targets.)
I hope to hear from you!
One question though, mouse/keyboard or joy stick/throttle combo?

Clan Ghost Bear International has a whole training program for Sibkins which include concepts such as leg shielding, torso twisting, and drop commanding. Every sibkin must get a passing grade in these concepts before their trial of entry.
Training is hard for both the trainers and the sibkin, sometimes constant failures for hours before a student has perfected the concept. At the end including the trial of entry, the status of becoming a Mechwarrior in CGBI is something you can wear with pride as it indicates that you completed a series of challenges not everyone has been through.
If you enjoy the lore aspects, CGBI trial of entry includes rituals, speeches, trials, and using Clan language.
If this all sounds enjoyable to you, please head to Ghost Bear Command.
On balance, if you wish for a smaller but certainly capable group, I can say that Clan Kodiak has very good players in it.
P.S: Also to answer your question the majority find Mouse and Keyboard easier, though we have some players that use joysticks and are very brutal.

Joystick takes a lot of practice. I can hold my own in my ELO bracket, but it took years of work.
Welcome to the game! Wherever you go I hope you find a home.

We never got your app Warpig. I did see you on TS once during non-peak times. Try and submit another app and get on Wed night between 8-11 when we have practices and we will get you set up.

You knocked it backed before but i'm still willing to sign you up if you're interested, at least it would get you in a unit and started with training and such. ATTAKHAN666

FYI this user signed up to CGBI. Just so people do not need to get hopes up with recruit posts in here.
