I must say, i'm against the whole "Enforced RP" towns and such.
Planning ahead is part of the Human concept. Shutting down towns simply because they "did not recruit in game by RP" is stupid.
Either way, the town is going to end up having an RP reason how they all met, or a town will not be made right?
So why take away the hard work of certain people just because it was not "In game".
/end rant.
