With a group, once you're invited, you're in for as long as you don't quit by force
Anyway, up to people

Perhaps we could have a poll about it and see what most people prefer?
RE: Old School Surreal & Discussion - Mikuri - 2015-05-28
You can always join a group by posting a link on skype and click it after. No invitation required.
Step1: Open any skype convo.
Step2: Post the following line:
Code:
skype:?chat&blob=nTv0qGhiKnynGxnlwcCgZcJC4wB67ADCsC-CSvTFLJ_zbvDSA3xdZfyS5qyz8TbcwdLRIkVhKCiMStep3: Click the link.
Step4: Profit!

As I said before, Skype is inefficient with resources, some people don't have flashy computers. Skype doesn't have different rooms for different purposes and it is exclusive in nature. I don't support Skype for the clan, you guys can unofficially use it, but I don't see what you have against TS. It's actually much better for games and your bandwidth.
I only want the best for you guys as a clan, and I'm not prepared to rely on Microsoft to provide us with voice communication. It might be great for 3 people, but what if voice chat got popular for an event? I've been in 20-person Skype calls and they are an absolute nightmare. Don't even get me to explain how to ban someone if we need to. You'll never get me to drop a formal server of some kind for a free, inferior alternative. Sorry.

Hey, I'm a member of the old school clan, it's a shame we can't chat with you in game, but if you were to join our friends chat "surreal cc" we can hang out.

I think that would be a splendid idea!
