Okay in a clan or at least in the ones I have seen that are very successful you have to have rules etc. Some have try out's for example. Well I had left to do a tour of duty in Iraq. When I left my clan had 97 members but when I returned there were only 15 lol,. A year and a half is a long time.

Any way me and two of my staff sergant's decided to start getting more members,we built up to 72 members right away. Me or a staff member would go over the rules of the clan (And it is not that hard to follow)

1st off a level means very litle. I look more for a certain skill. Are they teachable? Attitude? And can they follow directions like the rest?

If we can teach them,the rules are as follows

1 All clan members must wear the same primary color I dont care what type of emblem you have just as long as your primary color matches the clan colour

2. Every one must join the website within 20 days

3. We have a military type ranking system and you don't have to mandatorily alway's play with other members But it is recomended to help the clan all get used to each other also there will be nobody quitting on you in a game or no betrayal or people deranking by killing them self'. Your level will just get better this way not playing with people you don't know who could do all those things and you lose and derank yourself cause of some jerk.

Easy rules? Well i have been telling everyone or the last 3 week's the clan color rule and asked nicely with no therats to plz change it so we look more organised. I left message's with easy instrucation's every time..on xbox live text to all members. Only about 3 people did it so I said maybe they did't get it.

Again i leave a text message to the whole clan on halo in text ,then i left a voice message for those who can hear voice messages,and text ones for those with no head set's my staff members left messages then i finally said screw this enough is enough.

If these people cant follow a simple direction as easy as that then how are they going to be in a game,? Also we sent many messages for them to join the website, for 2 months and we got 7 members that did lo

l know it is funny.so i placed a dead line just for the color changs, I sent out a message warning they would have a week before the deadline both text and voice messages with the dead line and what will happen if they choose not to listen or think. "He will never boot me i am a level 25" Whatever than why do my level 's 5 kick your ass IN GAMES.lol,.

Well the dead line was last night at midnight.and belive me I and the staff left a message every day to remind them.

Well at the dead line 23 members had changed there colors,and the rest did not. So I did what I said I was going to do and I booted the from the clan at said time and day.

I booted out 40 plus people. I was as fair as was possible everyone got the message text voice xbox live bungie. Now I have people asking to return shouuld iIlet them in or not? Since they did not follow a simple order as that. Will they do it again next time?

So looking for your thought's on this matter it kinda feel's good not having so many members that are all good and listen when you ask them to plus I told my staff members only them or myself can requit people and to be 100% sure they are what we are looking for. Once they get approved then my staff sergeant in charge of training steps in and gives them a kinda orientation of the rules colors etc.

So we dont have to do this again. sorry if my spelling is off i type to fast,.thanks again

Sir I must say that this is notoriously difficult to read and I would please endeavour to get you to paragraph and spell this right as well as trying to sort out your word order as many people will not even bother to try and read it.

I left a clan when they started to get 'organised' and everyone had to have the same colour.

I don't wanna have the same as everyone else. Plus when your in a game and your teamates about to get assasinated you don't know who they are to warn them, and they die.

Spelling off? tell me about it XD




Fixed that for you sir.

Well as to the question at hand I would give them a second chance and let them back in but never a third chance.

There is always the chance they may have been away for a week and not seen your messages until it is too late so to boot them all without a second go is unfair sir.

However if it happens again sir i think you should definately not let them in as they will be proving that they have ignored the rules and will continue to do so again. IMO of course.

maybe now it is readable you may get some other opinions.

Man, I spent a good few minutes trying to read that.....and scrolling down reveals an edited version...

Anyway, I know how you feel. Some people do not enjoy being told what to do and to have uniform colors in my clan. They are the ones who quickly get booted.

But there are others who are loyal and obedient, and they come along as well. You just hope to catch them at the right time.

Maybe you just need to play with them more before inviting them, to know how they really behave in-game and out. That could be the problem.

impressive bragging sir... Even if I do doubt its truthfulness.

But might I add are you just trying to brag or does this have any relevance to this thread?

im not lying i just thought that this forum was for posting your clans info

I'd Rather Be A Smartass Than A Dumbass

You might be forgiven for thinking thatn as his thread is notoriously badly structured he was actually asking a question.

If you wish to big up your clan head over to the Classifieds section of the forum please.

And you must forgive me sir but we get hundreds of people every day coming in and talking about how they were in the 40s legit and 9/10 are lying.Therefore the best policy to adapt is to never believe anything unless proof is shown.

Do you have proof sir? I would love to see it.

Quit playing bad clans, then.

And if you get to a level 32 in a matter of weeks, yet you have been beaten twice, then you must play like 2 games a day.
