How does one earn the right to wear a 3pp?
 
Sorry, just a novice on these subject matters. I keep hearing this phrase though. How does 1 earn the right to wear a 3pp? Is it like hazing a fraternity in college?

meet some local guys on an open run or bar night , hang around for a while . if they like you somebody will ask you if you want to prospect . prospect for at least a year and if they still like you and you still like them they'll invite you to be a full patch member

this same information is available in every book , newspaper article , website and tv show about MCs . i figure they can't all be wrong about something so basic . details may vary from club to club

see http://www.rcvsmc.net/ for more info

If that is all you need to do, then where do you earn these stripes?

Maybe not. They are hurting for members and computer knowledge is key. And accounting ability. You might be surprised.
