Usergroup (clan/guild/confed) support becomes official

Introducing Usergroups v0.1

Official support for Usergroups (clans/guilds) has long been requested and we would like to take the first step towards that end. They will start simply and grow as Lack impliments new tools which will allow you to organize, challenge and otherwise be groupy with other members of CC.

In this early version, Usergroups will get :
  • Access to a private board on the CC forum, viewable only by their own members.
  • Official lists of who belongs to which Usergroup

To form a Usergroups, there is only 1 requierment
  • You must have a total of at least 6 members (one or more leader(s) plus 5 or more members)


PLEASE NOTE
Multiple accounts are taken very seriously here. All accounts named in a request for creation of a Usergroup will be investigated and banned if they are found to be multis in accordance with the general multiple account policy of ConquerClub.

Usergroups are for everyone. Free and Premium members may apply for the creation of, or join, a Usergroup.

To apply, copy and fill out the following and PM it to me I will get back to you within 3 days with an answer.
If the form is not filled out properly you will not get any reply from me

Usergroup Name:

Usergroup Leader's (admin's) name:

Member 1's profile: Link to player's profile
Member 2's profile: Link to player's profile
Member 3's profile: Link to player's profile
Member 4's profile: Link to player's profile
Member 5's profile: Link to player's profile
(Only include the first 5 additional members - you will have to add all players on your own)

External website: (if applicable)

Usergroup Description: (1 short sentence only)


The Usergroup leader will have the tools to add a player at a later time.



The system will be upgraded in the coming months to give leaders, members and non-members much more autonomy, control over and tools for their Usergroup...but as you can imagine that requires a fair bit of coding. This is only a first step, but we hope it is a step in the right direction.

Happy ConquerGrouping

Ped, by all means, nominate a new term, would love to move away from "Clan"

and yes, the first 3 are working their way into the system

As for other names than 'Clan', I'm not sure much more would work with out atmosphere and game type. 'Guild' perhaps, but clan seems to work better. ;)

each clan currently has an invisible thread that only the members can see. if you join a clan you will get one too

I was kind of hoping that you would use another term as xiGAMES is not a clan, but a group of independent players.

I like the word group. Even if you decide upon something else perhaps you could add on the word group, i.e. clans & groups.

OK, how about something conquery - like divisions or band, company, crew, outfit, squad, corps. (sadly "war cabinets" is already taken)

Then, to take scarus' very good point into account, we could move from "clan"- to "tribe" which has a more family connotation, but still protective/agressive undertone to it.

or we could play on the club theme:

alliance, confederation, union, brotherhood, congress, council, fellowship, fraternity, guild, order.

Personally I vote for one of the following

Corps
(something about "Conquer Corps" has a nice ring to it)

Confederations
(Keeps the militancy, but also adds a socio-political overtone.)

Orders
(because we know how many Harry Potter fans there are out there)

Any thoughts?

well, there is the elite core, but they spelled it wrong so it might not count.
I personally like "crew".

i like all.. i think it should be based on specific "groups" as to what to call themselves..
