Hello,

We are wanting to recruit some new members in many traditional areas (coders, graphists, musicians and community managers) of the demoscene. If you are interested, please do not post here or respond to flaming or trolls but rather submit some material via the email indicated on our group page.

Kind regards

Baud


2 new members have applied but we could still welcome a bit more so please do not hesitate to enquire ! :)
Poor guys...

Why so you guys care so much about what baud surfer wants to do? Let him recruit his social media managers if he wants. Don't apt if you're not interested.

these oldskool sceners are exactly the reason why the scene is dying. we need social media managers to bring the demoscene into the future!
Who gives a shit, just let the guy do demos with his group and whatever else he wants.

I wonder why Bit Arts (as one person or a group) is missing from the official RSI site member list though?

The musician Bit Arts was finally added to the Red Sector Inc. member list along with newest members.
Thank you for noting the initial omission Serpent.

Hey xTr1m, I saw your recruiting topics for Syn[Rj] and/or FRequency on several freshly created French IRC channels. I can assure you people will be just as happy to join us than joining your own groups :)
French channel sounds like you were seeing xtrium and not xtr1m.

Er, as has probably been said before, wouldn't time be better spent making good demos so people join on merit rather than being turned off by the amount of people and group bashing? Most people wouldn't dispute you can write great size-limited prods, so you're kind of dragging yourself down here. Especially if you are who you claim to be, this is a chance for a do-over.
Baudsurfer, how about a cup of clue? c\~/
I know nothing of such recruitments, i've been in only one group ever, and that's the group I've founded 2007 (quite after having politely declined the invitation of docd to join TRSi, actually). I've never done any active recruitment. You clearly must have confused me with someone else.

Oh and:

Really? With all this flaming going on? Who would actually be happy to join your ego trip? That's why I said, poor guys...

What Saga said. The xTr1m I know does not do recruiting in french channels.

Just in case any newcomer reads this, my opinion on all this:
Stay the fuck away from old groups with too much old shit going on.

Build up your own group or try to join a fresh group and/or help to build it up to become something awesome.

Figure out your own way of how to get things done (parts of kb's interview might be a good start).
The structures that might be present in some older groups might not be a good general solution of how to do things for everyone of us. Sometimes it's better to find your own way.

Helping to build up a totally unknown and new group can be way more satisfying than joining over 20 years old groups which are already pretty well known (and often not only in the best ways you can think of). Plus: You can do a lot of things you otherwise can not or even "must not".

Literally the reason I joined Poo-brain! That and they are the best group currently active in the demoscene ofcourse!

See you at Evoke BITCHES!

Well, Poo-Brain...
Often your first try to build up a new group is neither the best nor your last one (In this special case - the later will HOPEFULLY be true at some point of time). ;)

Okkie, did someone ever succeeded in forbidding you to do something?

Nah, that was not really meant to be part of my quote tbh. But poo-brain did give me an outlet for my shitty gimmick music and i appreciate that :D

I'm just very entertained about all this discussion about group structures and hiring rules and whatever else for a scene where literally nobody outside of about a 1000 nerds really give a shit about :)

Just be in the demoscene to make fun shit and let others make fun shit and let them do whatever they want and who cares how they run a group or what they do or whatever.

"back in the days" groups could recruit new members out side the scene using application forms etc.

in fact i think i filled out such an application form and joined my first group in 1994.

i agree that the modern demo scene is very casual and features ad hoc line ups for most new productions released.

however, it might be a good way of attracting people who are "borderline demo sceners" to step out of the shadows and join.
back in the days we'd send you fuckings for making silly threads like this. and no regrets either :=)
