Subject: Tips on how to start a clan? Help!

I recently tried starting up a mew clan but thigs didnt work out with the other leader. So right now im back at square 1. I have no clan name but i do have a basic idea of what i want the clan to be. I want it to be a military clan not too strict but still disciplined.

Im looking for some help in starting up this clan. If you are interested in helping me and ACTUALLY joining the clan and raising it to the end then leave your gamertag or contact Y3llowFellow.

Otherwise if you have any tips ,clan name suggestions ANYTHING that will help me get a good clan started please post.

I want to start a clan that will be fairly active in battles, raids, etc. i want it to be a good clan for the members but right now i have no members no name and i dont know where to start.

I can HELP you if you want, with ideas and advice and whatnot, I do not like clans though. But seriously if you ever need help keep I would enjoy tossing some thoughts around.

well smart butt-what i am offering "This Guy" is a larger community in wich one can operate a clan within our larger community-with the added bonus of possible microsoft point prizes for both him and his crewmembers. Not to mention the interconnectivity between all our ships and the ability to play with anyone in our community,work on achievements ect. My god, people in these forums-all of them, sure do like stuffin their nose where there opinions aren't needed. I'm sure he could have said so himself if he didnt like what i have to say.

He asked for something specific, and you decided to pitch a recruitment ad for your clan inside his thread. That person had every right to get annoyed by that. Just sayin'

Hey Gnome, haven't seen you for a while.

Tips:
1. Get a handful of friends before you start. No one will join a clan with absolutely no activity, even at the start. 7 or more ought to do.
2. Know exactly what you want, and how you want to get there.
3. Recruit like a mad man. Any group that doesn't have 20 members by the end of a month is usually dead from inactivity. Members are your life-blood, so keep a constant stream of fresh ones.
4. Know that it is not easy. Your first month will be hell. If everyone could do it, everyone would. Expect to put in a lot of time, and not get a whole lot in return, at least not at the start.
5. You have probably picked the worst time in Bungie history to make a group. I've had multiple clans get over 120 members, now I can't get one over 20. Good luck, and I don't mean that sarcastically.

Thank u so MUCH for the tips guys! Im going ti get some more people before i actually start the clan.

Cant think of a name right now so far i only have Spartans crusaders clan and spartan republic from my friend but they sound stupid. Any suggestions on clan names?

Ive also recently come up with a name. Since our clans mission is be an active clan for our members i want us to be called something with syndicate in it since it means an organization combined to promote an interest.

I just need another word to go along with it. Spartan syndicate? Dark syndicate? Idk any ideas?
