ur rite Yarbles, they do have to fly with us for awhile. That is the first point of recruiting is asking them to fly with us for a week or two, before sending them the invitation to come into the squad.
How i see the process:
Pilot A gets Klingan's attention
Klingan tells Yarbles to tell Pilot A to come on channel 144
Pilot A mingles and bullshit with my2fast to get brown-nose points
my2fast tells him time to shut up and join watever mission my2fast puts up
my2fast passes him along to other squadies for him to get some more brown nose points
In the end Marc asks everyone about Pilot A
Either Pilot A will become another 6JBlaser, or he will become a family member with (+)
...and the cycle continues with Pilot B, C and D
