My clan has been nagging me to make a website or group for them so i decided to make a group. I tried to create one but it said i needed to wait 14 DAYS. I know that doesnt seem that long but my clan is impatient and people are leaving.i know that many people would benifit from a shortend waiting period including me. So please if there is anything you can do please contact me or do somthing about the waiting period.

Wait, you have to wait 14 days to make a Bungie group?

Before creating a group, you should familiarize yourself with the 7th Column. Basically, the 7th Column is made up of fan run groups that usually represent collections of players that are local to each other (although there are exceptions). Inappropriate names, mottos, or descriptions are not allowed - don't violate the code of conduct! Also remember the 7th Column is not for your Quake clan, it is for Bungie gamers.Please note that you cannot create a group until your account has been active for at least 14 days.

Hmm, I never noticed that little caveat before. I think that the purpose was to stop the creation of too many groups.

Perhaps it should be shortened to one week?

Sounds good. One week, yeah. If you can't make the group now, I suggest that you go to a website (like freewebs) and make a temporary website until you can make a group.

I don't know; a fortnight delay is really useful for keeping away people who sign up just to muck around. Also, it gives newcomers time to consider if they actually NEED a group to themselves, and whether they can maintain it.

The thing is that there are people that don't know how to join a group, make a group, etc. when they are here for the very first time. Two weeks is quite a while. When I made my first group, I had no problem with it. I wonder if that rule is new or something, heh.

Yeh could be. (new rule)

I've made 6 groups! and they've all been created instantly. Hmm maybe it's my fault that there's to many groups ^_^

Good Idea (In my opinion). If your clan members are so impatient about creating a group, try getting one of your clan members to set up the group if they can.
