Alright to clear that whole noob hire & fire thing up.
I don't think it's anything bad to recruit noobs to towering guild, I think that stuff is even good, it's some motivation to get better for them, to improve their game. If you tower with noob guilds against noob guilds there isn't a high chance of getting better a lot, if you tower as a noob guild against pro guilds, you see their movements, see their strategies and you can take them and even improve them, towering right now is Ohana/ Sangue and a lot random guilds gaining hours in a tower with no goal.
The spirit in playing a game (my POV) is to get better, if I play in a noob guild vs a lot other noob guilds I prolly won't get better cause I already think I'm the shi.
The only issue I seen with the old towering system was that there were too many 1k guilds by the same leaders, truces and the whole camping in our home tower stuff. If all that would get changed a bit the game would feel alive again, there would be something to aim for and the towering part of the game would get better again.
I would just wish that they'd bring back towering, set the needed hours higher, make truces banable and maybe even add a system that gives 2-3 towers at a time 3x hours so that the, let's camp in our home tower guilds leave their tower and go for that tower.
