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.

@Havoc
Not doing much. Been trying to unsuccessfully sell off my tree bab as enclave. It's not the worst, but I can't afford to buy GBs for them, really. It'd have to be really special for me to do that, as much of my money goes into the raffles, lmao.

Hey, would it be possible to include click-links to the lionesses offered in the raffles? I love to check the lineage because I’m trying to get some nice 100% 0 inbred lineages xD so I like to check before I enter the raffle :)

@ThistleProse
I include a link in the message but since they aren't "clickable," I suppose that's fair. I was mainly being lazy because forum code for linked pics can be a little annoying.

After some pain, I fixed the latest one. Tada.

I can't believe we almost jumped by ten members in the span of a few hours. Sure, some are probably alt accounts but still.

To be fair, that's a question that could be posed from the start. I never had a system in place to check if people are following the clan's values, and if I attempted to, I don't think I would be able to keep it from being nosy, strict, and extremely time-consuming for me. For all I know, you could all be using this place as a giveaway center for free, hehe. But I am glad I get to see some frequent posts here suggesting otherwise.

And yes, I did intend to be this trusting from the get go. I'm more concerned over awareness than policing people to actually take the cubs, which is why the wording for the OG post of the thread is so vague in places. I also try to stay away from making monetary donations required and from fundraising/begging too hard, because I don't want to make people feel too responsible for their membership. To me, the giving tree clean-up is something you choose to do voluntarily, and shouldn't be something necessary every day if you don't feel like it. It might be a little laissez-faire, but I'm very focused on accessibility and a relaxed environment.

Cheap meat generally, like small meat chunks or 1 use carcasses.
