Clan name.

Do we have to use Clan recruiting Strictly for recruiting. I personally use it for both. Social grroup I find cheap, sorry. Can we change Clan recruiting to Clans, or leave it as it is and not use social group. Or is social group obligational?

[sugraf]

Does anyone use social groups? I don't think it matters too much but if they changed clan recruting to clans they could just make a section in clans for clan recruting.

[Shreder108]

I wouldnt mind the change I think it would be easier to understand with the new memberz

It's not like it isn't already "allowed". The mods let A LOT slip from what would normally be accepted. Even Rokrin's rules have gone largely unheeded.

Such as? I normally merge multi-posts and report spammers, but what have we missed?

[cornyjohn]

Not spam and multis, so much, but Rokrin said that Clan Recruiting should stick to Clan RECRUITING, and not Clan DISCUSSION. And once again it goes back to the way it was.

[sugraf]

So should there be a seperate thread for clan Disscusison? Or should the clans just use the Social Groups. If so good luck with getting everyone to do that.

[cornyjohn]

Tell Rokrin that, he's the one that can ban you for not following his rules.

-) Clan Recruiting says "Recruiting", and this can be stressed even more with the implementation of Social Groups on Wiispace. Threads in Clan Recruiting are for...well, recruiting. They aren't like a mini-chatbox for your clan. What I'd suggest doing is making a Social Group on Wiispace for your clan, linking to the social group in your main thread, and using the thread in CR as a means of attracting members to the social group. From there, use your "wall" in the social group to hold mini discussions and the like. Use the CR thread for clan announcements (via editing), or for challenges (if you're in a different clan and want to challenge a clan).

-) Competition is good to a point. It has toned down now, but there was a time when people became extremely competitive to the point where insults were being tossed around all over the place and people had to actually be warned down off of it. Friendly competition is great, but keep it friendly. Not because you can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar, but because quite honestly nobody was someone to pour vinegar all over their toast.

-) If you see that we have 200 Brawl Clans, seriously consider if there's really a need to make the 201st. Clan diversity is good and all but when there's 200+ clans running around for the same game that have member counts of 2 or 3 people, it gets really redundant.

-) Your clan can have sub-divisions for different games; if you want your clan to be multi-game, this is perfectly acceptable. However, you don't need a thread/social group for each offshoot. You can use underline, bold, coloring, etc. to make headers in your main clan thread and list the members of the offshoots in there.

This is in addition to the regular forum rules. In general, just use common sense.

[sugraf]

Ahh I see.
But currently no clan does this. All the clans talk in the threads, even the clan of legends.
I'm just saying that I thought what Reizo said would be easier.

[cornyjohn]

It is, but leads to clutter. What he's asking for is already allowed, technically speaking.
