NPC chapter not participating in formal recruitment

[AOII Angel]

I'm glad that in some cases, the system is able to step away from the "one size fits all" formal recruitment approach and allow chapters to do what they need to do to attract new members. If formal recruitment doesn't work for a chapter for various reasons, why not give them the chance to recruit outside the normal pathway? If at some point they rectify the issues that make formal recruitment impossible, they can join the other NPCs to keep things fair.
