gaming clan
An online club where people with either no or some gaming skill can join to play a multi-player game. They are usually pointless, but provide a large amount of gaming servers on which they own and humiliate other players because being in a clan makes them feel like they are in an organized gang. Being in a gang is obviously cool (at least according to them). They are usually seen in packs and will most likely stack the team. Upon being called out on this by fellow outsiders, they will mock them and tell them to "gtfo noob" in order to discredit any team-stacking, cheating, or similar tomfoolery.
XG CLANS
Started Jan 4th 2006, based on HONOR CODE, respect, no- cheating, or discrimination. Structured around providing like minded gamers a place to call home on line. The Rank structure gives a direct line of communication from PRVT to Council, while giving each Clan its own identity. Each clan in XG is different from each other and have different restrictions to join from age requirements to on-line interaction with other gamers. Clans range in size from 10 to over 100 members and are responsible for supplying adequate leadership for there members, 10 members per capt. approximately. They are still playing multi player games as well as competition on clancompete.com or like websites.
( think about the differences you see in XG compared to other clans and please post them in reply...please keep them appropriate to the thread, thanks.)
