So I know that this may be over used but maybe we could have a clan system in the AGv3 system? Basically this idea is that you could make you own clan and have your own name in which you could have separate events withing the clan. Even newer ranks for people in a clan such as:
Clan Leader Clan Advisor Clan Member Clan Organizer Clan Associate So on and so forth.
Clan Leader: Basically runs the clan and can "kick" people out of a clan or "ban" them from a clan. So no they're not Mods or Admins but they just keep the clan under control.
Clan Advisor: Basically helps with enforcing the rules of the clan and the site to newbies. Also can Advise a member of the clan to go to someone else if needed.
Clan Member: Just a normal member nothing really special about them. They can be "kicked" or "banned" from a clan. Will really make up the majority of the clan.
Clan Organizer: This is where some of the fun would come in. They could suggest fun ideas for the clan to do. Such as playing a muliplayer game with just your clan members. They would normally set up the event and do alot of the organizing for the game. Such as a tournament for the clan.
Clan Associate: Just about anyone who is Associated with the clan but not really in the clan. Even if they're in another clan. When your an Associate I would just suggest that you put which clans they're associated with on their profile.
Now I was think that close to the persons name when they're on the forums you could put which clan they're in. Also somewhere on their profile.
Now I was think that for a clan they could have a bit of their own forum. Not as intricate as our just on community and maybe a few different categories but not as many as the main one. So that they can make their own activites without cluttering up the forums.
Also I was think maybe clan compettions at random times, but this would not be necessary.
this would kill the server my friend reason being that having 1,000 clans, probably even more would make the server unstable then add on top of that all the games on the site. then you have over 1mil users and each one of them has there own page and a control panel.your idea of a clan wouldn't work because you would have to have 30people just to start your clan or there would be now member only admins and mods and planers and advisers that help maybe two people. your idea wouldn't work.
Could a group/clan be fully deleted (or locked) for disrespect the rules? Or just peoples concerned?
Yes, we'll have the ability to delete a group. Not sure what purpose "locking" the group would have, other than blocking messages on the group page for a while.
Do a game-clan need to have the name for that game in the clans name?
No, we won't restrict groups/clans to that. In fact, in phase one, they'll just be plain ol' "groups", they don't even need to be about games. You could start a "AG Players from Sweden" group, for example, and not be affiliated with any particular game.
You could start a "AG Players from Sweden" group, for example, and not be affiliated with any particular game.
That would be about 5 members, so no.
I think a clan can be effective even with only 5 members, so that is not a no. Besides, I think that was just an example to show that an AG3 clan does not need to be for a game.
Well look I am still strugleing on weather or not of makeing my clan a EP clan or just a clan of people who likes dragons. I want it to be a gameing clan, but right now its hard, I don't know if I or any of the 3 members can grow the Clan, because its not very well known.
What about the Dragon-clan made by Eragonsdragon then? It's an EP-clan.
What about it? This is exactly what we're discussing in this thread. Groups/Clans can be game-based or not, however the user who builds the group wants to make it.

Gotcha. Well, since you'd have to meet a minimum requirement to start a group, we don't know yet if there's a time lapse to enforce between creating multiple groups or not. Or whether a user could only ever make one group. Or maybe they'd have to petition to create any group at all, and it's up to the Moderator/Admin team to ensure that multiple spammy groups don't get made.
