New Recruits should not be able to join ANY games. I don't want to start a 5 player game have it end up a two player... this happens a lot where a couple new recruits join a game and don't take a single turn. So, why don't we hide games completely! Only let them start the games? this would of course not matter in private games but this way it ensures that only one new recruit will join and you know that when you join yourself...
tell me what you think...

NO!
BAD IDEA!!!
New recruits don't know what they are doing they might not know how to start a game, and if they start one no one would join, I'm sorry this is a bad idea

there is a problem with your idea... if a new recruit can not join ANY games... how the hell is he/she going to reach the 5 completed games requirement in order to get a rank!!!!!!
how many ppl are going to look up new recruits, create a new game and pm them to join?
new recruits WOULD NOT be able to get a rank without the aid of multis.

I like it when new players deadbeat. I make an 8 player game thats open to the public, If three of them deadbeat out then I only have to beat 4 other players. Easy points.
I look at new players deadbeating as the equalizer for not having a rank filter. I hate being beat by chefs and cadets.
Also, I have a solution to your problem. Make your games with a password and post the password with an explanation of why you are making the games in the callouts section. Other players who do not want to play against new, potential deadbeats will join you.
