I've played as far as I could get on three different games now where no one that I catch is recruitable. I've double checked that they were marked to get recruited, but regardless of the skill of the warden, they just won't convert. The only saving grace has been random wanderers joining the colony. Another problem I get is that the prison is full of opposing factions and any time they are conscience they will fight until they are knocked out. I've tried killing/releasing opposing factions, but the prisoners still won't join the colony it doesn't matter whether they were listed as under 30 or up to 99%, I always get the flag that they're below mood threshold, even if the have convinced by warden 100+ and it's showing that their mood is high enough. I don't have a save file that Illustrates it. I kept trying to play through thinking this must be a new mini game, but it just doesn't seem right that I can have 3 colonists that are supporting upwards of 10 prisoners.

I am having the same problem.

And, please note, it's not that recruit attempts are successful.  As far as I can see, there aren't any recruit attempts being made, even though the prisoners are clear set to be recruited.

I wonder what's wrong you guys' games. I've been recruiting prisoners left right and center, if anything I have too many of the lil' bastards XD

think they mean its hard to get a prisoner up to the 80+ percent mood most raiders seem to need. I believe Tynan has rebalanced this for the incoming hotfix.
Skullywag modded to death.
I'd never met an iterator I liked....until Zhentar saved me.
Why Unity5, WHY do you forsake me?

I don't know that it's a bug, but my prison has nice decorations, is kept clean, and has a pool table in it, and most of the bastards are still not joining.

They get better bloody treatment than the colonists!

you guys are having problems, MY prison is just a room carved out of the mountain with a rough stone floor, with a square steel table and 4  steel stools, with 4 single beds set to medical and 20 sleeping spots, and the only buggers that do not convert quickly are the 99ers, a light near the table, and a light between the head of one medbed and the foot of the next, oh and a NPD in a hole in the wall to a freezer, and the hoppers for the NPD are set to human meat ONLY and in the freezer

There's still a serious issue with recruting. It's been fixed for an upcoming hotfix. Thanks for reporting.
