Hey Monkey!
I think you're doing good so far!
I used to run guilds myself, as far back as when Ultima Online released guild systems, in that time I ran multiple guilds clans and got involved in communities, from tight knit guilds of a few spies and assassins, up to large raid guilds on World of Warcraft, and other guilds in lord of the rings, and from this plus my goio experience I will offer you a few things I find important to keep in mind! :)

Don't take on all the responsibility by yourself! This will only burn you out, work on finding out who in your clan can be officers, get one (very nice and social person) to work on recruitment, in a small community like guns, its good to make sure the recruiter does not stick to only playing with clan mates and never  anyone else, they need to be meeting the players in pub matches and making friends. Dedicate another guy to trainer/teacher someone who knows the game well enough to answer questions, and is willing to spend their time showing, explaining and demonstrating the things they are asked about, they need not be a genius on the game, just know the basics. :)
Dedicate another to events and event arrangement's, the event organiser should be someone with a lot of respect from other clan members, and has good organisational skills or at least someone who has everyone on steam so they can PM every member times of events, and they should have good initiative to not just think of things, but to make those things happen.

Trying to take that all on by yourself is a big task, obviously depending on the size of your clan, and what directions you want to take will influence which roles I suggested you'd use. If you're after a clan with just friends and casual play, you'll not need an event organiser, and trainers will not really be needed.
If you're aiming to go up.to competitive, then you'll want a system that works for you, and I usually find delegating the hardest and most time consuming tasks the.most important...

Good luck monkey!

Hello,

Well, I'm going to say I am quite surprised in a very giddy manner. Had this post up for a few days now and I have been the only one who has said something on it. Ask for suggestions and well, I got them.

First off, thank you all for both answering the questions I had and I guess well greeting me to the game in general. I'll definitely try to keep from going insane by finding a guild officer. I think I'm gonna try to spend this week finding friends in each of the game I partake in and see if they are willing to join in the clan.

I think the biggest problem I am going to run into is that I will be heading off for vacation in a few days that may take me out of action fr a couple of weeks. So it may seem that I am being hypocritical  especially if I forget to say anything before.

Again Thank You All,

Your Captain

Sing me up

Was a lot of fun flying with you guys and I am always for "teaching > bashing" especially as many swabbies already are at each others throats  :(


I'll contact you in game.

BEASTLYMONKEY:
Wonderful,

Glad you decided to join and welcome of course to our clan. We are getting lots of new recruits recently so our clan is growing quite rapidly. I hope to get to play with each one of you in game and potentially talk more about your member ship and such.

As the clan grows more and more plans have begun to sprout. The question of competitive play has began to surface and I can honestly say that I have no idea how to even begin to advance toward that goal. Do I want to see casual play? Of course! Do I want to see competitive play? Why not!? At the moment we are still too small and young to be having such ambitious goals. However I would love to see both of these play styles to part in our clan, for now though we will just continue to focus on casual game play and teaching the basics to any new crew member.

Again, I hope to see you all in game and as it stands now we currently have about 6 American players and 4 European players. I may actually be wrong about this as I am dreadful with numbers. In any case the split is fairly even so we got players on at all times of the day. I typically don't sleep so I may be able to join everyone some time or another

Thank You All,

Your Captain
