iii)If you have not had any contact with us, what is the quality of your forum posts? How you present yourself in public says a lot about you.
iv)If your application is denied during this recruitment phase, you should not be discouraged from reapplying in the future. Take some time to play some games against clan members, and join some of our tournaments to get us to notice you.

I think he means that he has the same problem that I do, with the '1 clan' rule, part of the reason I'm on leave at the moment.

I'm a member of a few groups, none of which are competitive, yet it's frowned upon by Gen1. I'm not trying to argue the rule, but the various people in my groups I've known since I started here (forever on the internet) and I'm not willing to give that up, even though I think Gen1 is an excellent clan full of good people.

All I'm saying is I think you guys should revise the one-clan rule to a 'one competitive clan rule,' but I see where '1 clan, period' would be beneficial, to promote activity, loyalty and whatnot.

Anyway, best of luck guys. When things get sorted out I'll be back, I'm still convinced Gen1 is one of the best clans out there.

Last time I checked it is clearly stated in the Clan Policies and Guidelines that membership in discussion groups is allowed. Did I miss something somewhere?

To clarify, discussion groups ARE allowed. It is one competitive clan only.

Just paying this thread a flying visit to clarify something which may help clear some confusion.

Some "clans" are non competitive, so in my clan and others that have a one competitive clan rule we allow membership of non competitive clans as these are in effect discussion groups. I maintain a list of "competitive clans" which a few clans are now using to clarify which clans are competitive or not, if someone from g1 wants a copy of this I'm happy to PM it to them.

Just to clear things up, this is from our Official Clan Policy.

Optimus Prime wrote:Clan Loyalty:

It is no secret that there are an abundance of clans here at Conquer Club; however here at G1 we strongly believe that loyal clan members create an atmosphere of unity and bonding that will be hard to beat. With this in mind we ask that as a member of G1 you refrain from being a member of another clan on the site. With this rule in place we believe that the G1 clan will become a haven of sorts for players who are looking for a more tightly -knit community as well as helping our players prepare for the inevitable battles against other clans.

Discussion Groups: In regards to the various discussion groups that are not clans, but rather places where players with similar interests can gather, G1 is of the opinion that there is no harm in a member of the clan participating in such groups. For example, there are discussion groups about anime, tournament organizing, cartoons, etc. If the group is not involved with "clan-like" activities such as inner-group challenges/tournaments, or challenges to other groups you are more than likely fine to join them and participate. However, if the group is more of a clan than a discussion group we kindly ask that you either stick with us or with them.


I also PMed rebelman about that competitive list, so I'll post that around here somewhere.

Dude, be patient. Our process includes some debate, setting up test games, and then more debate. You'll find out in a few days whether you'll get test games or passed on. It's a surprise. :wink:
