What? Haha
Puremelee07 hit the nail on the head, seperate clans that served as feeder clans to clans with higher requirements. Examples ; Junior pures (which was a jr clan to The Pures which was a clan further down the NME timeline), Final Ownage Junior (lol boomer), TLP juniors (a distinct clan in its own right) loads of clans had them at one point such as supreme ownage and destined pures.
Post-2007, junior clans took a different approach. clans such as anonymous asassins (mayhem makers staff led it, and AA attended most MM trips at that point) and clans such as The Undying which was led by CP members sprung up which due to the fact pvp was solely clan wars based, allowed "low levelled divisions" where itd basically be CPs low level accounts vs MMs low level accounts, for instance. These junior clans wernt as "officially" recognised as jr clans as the ones from 05 / 06, but they still existed.
I'd deliberated with junior clans for a while in Epidemic, even trying it out with "EpicDemic" (google it!), and I know for a fact they'd work in this era as long as they were spearheaded by someone who knew exactly what they were doing.
Remember Fi's Jr clan a few months ago? Yeah. My point exactly. Oldschool junior clans were different but now they're of no use unless your clan is slumping and needs those extra 10 or so people on trips.
Well first of all, I don't remember Fi's "Junior clan" a few months ago, but I'm pretty certain it didn't have its own forums, memberlist, trip times, leadership, and memberbase, hence, it isn't a junior clan in the classic sense of the word (See; Paragraph two of my previous post).
The fact you say the classic "junior clan" is of no use now it absolutely ridiculous, especially after insinuating that the Jr clan will pull 10 people to their official PK trips and for some reason accompany the senior clan to all of their trips.
If a junior clan was created now by somebody who understands how exactly to lead a clan and how exactly to juggle the senior clan and the jnr clan, saying it would have no benefit is stupid. A 50 person memberlist takes around a week to obtain if endorsed by a famous clan, with the new clan gaining publicity for the jnr and the snr clan as well as giving new members the experience they need in order to make a big impact in the senior clan. If joint trips were scheduled, a 80 person pull could quite easily be made a 120 person pull if the junior clan was led properly, which would absolutely wipe the floor with those without junior clans.
It had all that, and they pulled like ~15 to trips. AND they teamed with Fi on every trip they went on while they were open. AND Fi called them their junior clan.
Oh, that Interitus clan? Well, that was a while further back than "a few months", and they were hardly a jnr clan in that their staff were only associated with Fi in their later days as FI probably realised they were gonna die and have a few members join. As far as I'm away, outside of that vauge association, there were no Fi people involved in Interitus
My statement still stands, if handled properly a jnr clan would improve the snr clan leaps and bounds
