The individual player makes the option to join or not join (when I said rufus didn’t like them enough or weren’t good enough pretty much implied he chose them)

The player is given the option to join by the guild and its members. Without the initial decision made by the guild, the player has no window for opportunity. If Rufus would like a player in the guild, he consults the guild about it and we talk it over. He doesn't handpick guild members like you think he does. We, as a guild, are very careful about it.

Rufus didn’t like Eddy yet he recruited him Im sure it had nothing to do with making a gst team fo the idevice tournament. Kevin91 would have been recruited but he had to many haters in US. You can deny it all you want but the iphone section of US was done for the purpose of the gst.

Eddy had great chemistry with a few other members in US when we gave him the opportunity to join. He was left alone with no guild when we realized he would make a nice addition to the guild. Kevin would have been a good member, but while we realized he was a skilled player, he was inactive at the time of his mention, so we knew he wouldn't really be a great teammate at the time. When he started to come back and his name was mentioned again in guild chat, he was already scooped up by Talbourn and dumped in Mother.

Lets take my girls bf Vlad. He had just won 2 gsts with EP and the Mexicans yet he left them for Rufus with no hesitation. Why would he do that? Wasn’t kuji in those teams too?

You can ask Vlad that question. We thought he would have some great connections with guild members, seeing as he had friendly relationships with a great deal of them. Everyone will have a different view on the guild and will come to the decision of joining for different reasons. I cannot speak for someone else.

3. I kind of agree with you on this one. Rashuuuuuuurrrrdddddd was the main reason US got a name in iClassic and why everyone was desperate to join.
4. lol I guarantee you if Rufus was to leave US the guild would be nothing

Haha, Ares didn't really "wow" that many people. Well, not too many players involved in the spar community anyway. Once US won our first GST, people really seemed to love the guild. I believe it has to do with the fact that our team was all these random new people from the foreign PC servers that have just been given access to Classic iPhone. They fought so well together, too. That team was always exciting to watch.
When Rufus is done with Graal, US will be lead by someone else. That's how he became leader in the first place. A new generation of US members will rise like the current one did in 2011. That's just the way the guild has worked since it began in the mid 2000's. I think the guild will work the same, and the players will even still keep in contact with Ruf here and there and maybe play some games with him. Its always good to keep in contact with old friends.
Well, the guild may be nothing to you when he leaves. That's something I can't control. But for our guild members, US doesn't die. ;)
