Usually 1% is good. I'm only 4-for-95, though, and about 30 have bounced back.


Really, I think, it depends on the type of telegram you send. Many people secretly copied my template to increase their recruitment rates. :p

I got a knife. It's a skin in a game with different animations.

It's as much as Fallout 4.

I could sell it and I could get Fallout 4.

I go manual, no auto-tools, but I also send TGs to nations nearly the instant they join, which probably helps :D

Does you region have a recruiting program, or is it just from the "Activities" section?

Man, that sucks. I used to sell items a lot to try and make my characters look cool. It didn't work, but oh well. I remember trying to obtain a name tag for a long time before I lost interest in TF2 so I could rename my Strange Baby Face's Blaster to "Sanic's Speed Booster", because back in 2014 I thought "le dank may-mays" were cool. Those were dark days.
