Tips for starting a clan

[Pure Element]

Please no trolling or flamming. I am seriously looking into starting a mid-low level clan and would love to hear any tips people may have from experience

Get a solid group of people you trust.

 

You don't want it to be all on you.

[Westy]

Always best to start a clan with a bunch of mates you can rely on :)

 

 

so basically what he said ^

[Ashton]

dont give up. times will get tough, and you will wanna give up. just keep working through it. and as they said before, have some good friends that you think could be good ranks.

this sums it up.. you have to be willing to work hard for what you want.

[Altus]

Start off with a solid core of friends who are relatively experienced, and you trust.

 

And there will be times when you think to yourself: "f this I want to join FOE" or something along those lines. If you want your clan to be a success, make sure you keep going with it ;)

[Roman]

Make a solid core for the staff of people that you trust 100%, and can rely on, where you don't have to do it all on your own. Not give up, and boot anyone who causes drama.

[Pur3_Kide]

All it takes is a tight group of friends that is reliable and trusted, probably like 5.

 

Get them to recruit their other friends and remember to keep everyone motivated or else it will fail. Also be prepared to spend sht load of time on PMing members because you really have to give every member attention if you want them to be loyal. You need to make them feel wanted, important and welcome.

 

IRC should be active and you should from day 1 do some sort of event, I do suggest a mini-war to give everyone a taste. Lose or win it will motivate everyone to do better and to work hard for the clan.

 

You need to tell your staff/members your goals with the clan whatever if its to be chilled, relaxed and fun clan that does good in F2p even opts or P2p even opts. OR if you want it to be serious ass clan that is aiming to be top 5 F2p/P2p clan.

 

Last but not least, you need to start a rivalry with some clan to really get everyone pumped. Also do speechs to motivate and to give feedback to your members. This gets the forum active to some point.

 

Just what I personally would do, good luck if you choose to experience how it is to lead a clan. It's worth it and nothing comes close to the feeling when you bring your clan to victories ;)

Set everything up and remain a private clan until everything is made, most of the ranks are there, and you have a group of loyal friends in it, then publicly recruit

I'll give you the best tip of all. Don't start a new clan from nothing right now: It's not worth it.

All you need.^^

Don't rush it, manage your time well. Don't get dragged into drama's. Be responsible and always stand your ground.

[Old P K 3 R]

Unless things change around this community and you have a group of people who are dedicated, and have the time to put into a clan with the right ideas, then it will never be worth it.

[Chris`iDi]

Goodluck, starting a clan is not easy.

[0ynxx]

not having 3+ leaders

[Jack-x2yz]

get 5 people you trust and start with them as your core, then recruit everyone you see! When in the wild try n get every pure to join your clan. Start off with low requirements then boost them up when you start to get around 15+ to trips. Register a IRC, a Forum, a runehead and get a teamspeak/vent server. When you have a few members advertise your clan on fan sites like this one. Just keep going from there. Make sure your core is strong and you should be just fine. When your pulling 25+ thats when you have made a respectable pure clan.

[V Toxic V]

these are some very good replys tbh, I even read these to help out my clan.

[Hotkeyinq]

Theres more to clans than this ****** up community.

 

OT:

 

-Don't merge

-Recruit your own members and they will be loyal

-Keep your members off this site, ignorance is bliss

-Target clans that are just pulling slightly less than you

-Crash - its the only way

-Use spies because PKRI's don't work

 

Maybe i'm wrong as ive never founded a clan from scratch, but just something ive observed over the years

[Brooks Ltd]

Trusted close group of friends

 

common interest

 

Audio

 

Stable/Protected Forums

 

the ability to compromise and be patient.

[aTommy]

be dedicated, good core starting group. recruit and train members and slowly rise to the top. beat a clan in a fullout.

[Cronic Ko]

Bob is right, making a new clan is not worth it.

 

But, I would suggest you choose your leadership wisely.

[Mime]

Leadership you can trust

Don't hand out passwords to the memberlist, youtube, or anything else.

Only give Admin cp to the real leaders of the clan, not every single rank.

[Toby]

I'll give you the best tip of all. Don't start a new clan from nothing right now: It's not worth it.

Seriously, listen to the man. Was thinking the same thing. Most people will just go through with it anyway and the clan will die out within a month or less. If you feel confident enough and you know you have a stable staff team and a potential memberbase coming along then by all means go for it. But from the looks of it, it doesn't seem like you have anything set up from the start.

[Evan]

Don't take the game serious have fun with it, get a good group of loyal mates and build on it.
