TVB is about being a long time regular on the Ville. Being an outstanding member with a great attitude in the game. Although skill is a good asset it is night required to be a part of. Attitude is Everything.

{Edited to add}
Plus you are generally asked into the group. Periodically in our forums we discuss potential members.

TVB bases membership on your skill in Kissing up to Frag without him catching on

jk, whoops I may have gone a bit too far here. I fear there is a visit in my future

There is only 1 thing I can say in my defense: U DA MAN Frag !!

Spot on Hamese! Unfortunately us [LB] guys have rotten attitudes, have mediocre skills, and are basically newbs at TheVille!

Actually the other longstanding clans that still exist around TheVille, such as PWG, LB, E4, (pardon if I forgot anyone), have a healthy co-existence with TVB and one another. When TVB was formed, it managed to absorb some members from existing clans that couldn't effectively operate independantly any more and it gave TheVille a fresh breath of life once again!

One of the most important factors in choosing new members is the so-called "TYO Line".

Here's how that works: I'm a player of completely average skill. To keep a good balance of skill levels in TVB, exactly half of all members are better than me, and half are worse than me. That's the TYO Line.

Right now, the balance is heavily tilted in favor of players who are better than me. We need to add about 20 players who are worse than me to even things out.

SO . . . . .

If you want to join TVB, find a game where I'm playing and let me kill you. Repeatedly. With a crowbar. That way, you'll fall beneath the "TYO Line" and be eligible for membership.

TYO hit the spot, almost. Anytime you see Frag in game, run up to him as spy, and feign so that he can jump on top of you and rape you with the crowbar

I just got stabbed a few times, but did manage to pull of a few infection deaths on him, and he still let me in.

I would say that TVB is a group of friends who come to theVille to have fun with their cyber buddies.

A group that I belong to out here in the real world has one big way of choosing. We ask ourselves about a potiental candidate. Do we consider this person to already be a good friend? Because why would you want to bring people in that you don't like or that are going to cause divisions in the group.

So I look at as who do I consider as a friend here as one of my ways of choosing. So if you are a regular and have a good attitude then you can become a friend very quickly. Think about it. When you come to these servers, its like Cheers, you look for your buddies to see if they are playing.

I also like to think of TVB, just like that one end of a bar, as the Peanut Galary of theVille. Its where all the regulars, who are just trying to have fun and cut up a lot are.

To Be in TVB... Ahhh... I BELONG!

When FragFailure was forming TVB I was SHOCKED

But, I'm a team player and I love to whine and cry about being picked on, then suddenly I learned to spy and started fighting back, so I suppose my fellow TVB'ers taught me a lot.

Enjoy the game, have fun, be a TEAM player and you never know, you just might be INVITED to join. If you have to ask, it sure takes away from the thrill of BEING asked.. trust me.

I LOVE YOU TVB~~~~~ *Maybe I still need more sleep*
