This is an official clan thread for the Giving Tree Clean-Up Crew Clan!

Lioden Giving Tree Clean-Up Crew

What is this clan for?


As of the creation of this post, there are 1010 male lion cubs in the giving tree. This is almost 10x the amount of female cubs there, and for good reason. While there are many uses for female cubs of all varieties, male cubs are generally limited to sex-changing and kingship. This means that for the average user, the standards for a male cub are much higher. Thus, a conundrum has been created. People want to get rid of the cubs so they abandon them at the tree. But nobody really wants to pick them up either, so they stay at the tree. I believe that this "landfill" of cubs will continue to grow unless we decide to do something ourselves as a concentrated group, for as far as I've noticed tree cubs do not get deleted.

Enter the Giving Tree Clean-Up Crew. This clan (created by yours truly) is dedicated to the purpose of sacrificing our daily tree slot to remove the unwanted cubs from the tree. By doing our part whenever we can, we will "clean" the tree and make it easier for people to drop actually good males for newbies and others to pick up and heir. To further this cause, those who wish to join me should follow two general principles.

Principles of the Janitorial Crew


1. As often as possible, members should strive to use their singular tree grab for a male cub or adol. What is done with these cubs is up to the player, as long as they are gone from the tree.

2. Members should refrain from worsening the problem at the tree and should actively choose not to drop male cubs unless they themselves would enjoy receiving them.

What are benefits of being part of the clan?


Technically, players could purposefully choose to help the tree on their own and do not "need" to join the clan to do so. However, this is likely a difficult choice to make as it is directly a near-daily sacrifice. To this end, I propose that if this clan gets enough members and a following, I myself will donate and also accept donations of nice-looking female cubs which will be raffled off to clan members with minimal entry fees to balance out the loss of all the potentially nice girls people could be grabbing. Clan members can also donate SB, items, and food to reward each other for taking on this mission. If we motivate each other, it will be easier and more fun to tidy the tree.

I've never minded the clan messages personally. I've always checked both those and the forum thread anyway, so it doesn't bother me.

@Shorty2709 Congrats on winning my EHR girl!! I know she'll be well-loved!! I ended up keeping three of her sisters for myself.

I don't mind cutting back on my winners' messages but I do worry that this will cause people to not know when the raffles are over anymore, even if I tell them to check them here. I know I sent a lot today but the average amount of them is only 2 a day, so I'm not sure how that isn't easy to just quickly delete if you so desire.

It's honestly a little conflicting to me because it's my only guaranteed channel of communication with everyone, and there are a lot of members now. If everyone joined the Discord, I could send messages there instead, but I don't think the majority wants to, haha.

I honestly think you should do what you feel is best for the clan. You can’t always make everyone happy unfortunately

True. This also doesn't seem like a common sentiment either, at least necessarily needing me to cut messages back. I won't deny I'm biased, as I find this to be relatively a non-issue. This clan has high activity that I need to announce, and forcing people to read a thread just to see if the raffle is over I feel will cause more annoyance than just sending some mail. I also don't like checking the forums myself and mostly do it only for this thread because it's my duty, so I empathize more with people that find coming to the thread and scrolling through it a hassle. There isn't even a way to specifically notify someone you replied to them here. It's woefully inefficient.

Anyway, I'll try to think of ways to cut down mail, but at the moment I only send messages I believe are important: opening raffle, closing raffle, and news. I thought about removing the second one, as I mentioned earlier, but this may generate a new issue of confusion that I worry about.

Maybe close and open a raffle at the same time? Put them in the same message. Might cut it down a bit

@Necc Mom
I already expressed how I can't always do that because that would force me to open and close them that way every time and I can't. I don't have the time and take a few days off from it either way when I go to work. I could start doing that *part of the time* when I do feel like running the next one right away, but it's not guaranteed, unfortunately.

As someone who doesn't really like posting in Forums, I prefer getting clan notifications/messages. Tbh, deleting a few messages isnt a big deal to me, and I like seeing them. It gives a little more life to how I play, because I dont interact much with others otherwise. I dont see how getting 7 messages is such a big deal, but I'm only in like 4 clans and 3 of them dont post much, so maybe I'm just not participating in clans as much as other people, but I find it easy just to read and delete things or even just delete and ignore when I'm not interested atm. I play primarily on mobile too, so it's not completely intuitive :(
I noticed that forums tend to get bogged down, for me anyway and I'm not particularly fond of having to search through posts to find what I'm wanting.
That's my two cents anyway. I understand the other POV, but I like how its run now

@Bri He didn't come with one but it's part of the plan if RMA doesn't kill me lmao. But he came with 5 Vits, Celestite eyes, Primal Fangs and is squeaky clean. My original plan was to sex change him, but I flaked and forgot he was 1 year 11 months when I pulled him. He grew up before I could change him and now it's too late since he's a mutie.
