Highlanders Motorcycle Club

Changes made to the Highlanders Motorcycle Club.

The faction itself is a fictional piece, it is a write-up of imagination aimed to be as realistic as possible. This has been our goal from the beginning and continues to be our goal as a faction: To portray a realistic but somewhat original Motorcycle Club.

Since the faction’s conception, we have made many changes and have taken on board many criticisms which we are delighted to receive and reflect on. The core reflection we have made is the journey from the Motorcycle Club’s Origins to its East Saints charter as well as the perception of its membership.

We have made many of these changes behind the scenes for quality assurance and for the sake of better roleplay portrayal. These changes have been made working closely with members of IFM and members of the GTA:W Biker Community.

The summary is this. HOWEVER, I suggest reading the thread again. It’s a good read.

The Club’s origin has been moved from Scotland to Canada. This allows us to retain some of the internal traditions and themes while making the Club’s expansion more feasible.
We’ve expanded on the public lore. Some aspects of our lore has been shifted from an internal document onto the thread, to better reflect the motivations for moving to San Andreas and why the Club is how it is.
We’ve made our intentions on membership, recruitment, and OOC char creation recruitment a lot more clear. This is something that caused quite an issue in perception.
We’ve replaced some patches and images to be more unique. Rather than that seen from other clubs we have tried harder to make them more tailored to the Club’s history and nature. For example Men of Wrath -> Guardian.
