[QUOTE="XGC HYLANDER XC, post: 734743, member: 155"] This is a good article and should be helpful to many. Using the site is not a new issue as it has been dealt with since the beginning of the community. Believe it or not this comes down to the type of gamer you are recruiting. Understand that the site is a tool, resource and social network for the gaming world not just the community. Those in the community that choose to be part of clans and the activities associated with the clans and community as a whole are more than likely going to participate on the site. It's impossible to be a leader in the community and not be on the site daily. It's where your community lives via the dotcom world so it's where you would need to be. Going back to the recruiting thing, if you are on xbox playing with others not in the community and strike up a conversation ( you do talk to other people to get to know them prior to inviting them into your clan right? ) you will get a feel about who they are and you can ask questions like, do you have a computer? Do you get on it? Do you use any gaming sites to network with others? And so on. Don't hit them with that right away though. Play some damn games and have fun and let that flow into the discussion over time. If the person you are speaking to is like, screw a website and you still recruit them you can't be surprised if they never get on the website. LOL... On the other hand, if they show interest in the site and ask things like, what the site address? What types of things do you all talk about on there? You probably want to explore the possibility of inviting them into your clan. This doesn't mean you kick the other guy to the curb, just realize what type of gamer you are dealing with. You should always set the expectations upfront as well. Meaning, let people know that outside the great enviroment this community offers it also offers an opportunity to become part of it's leadership if they would want to and in order to do that they would need to be active on the website moreso then just checking it out from time to time. It's about communication and it's the best place to communicate with your clan mates as you can get on it from anywhere. One last thing, if you are a leader in the community it would be hard to request your members to get on the site if you don't. Well you can do it but if you are not setting the example, they are not going to follow suit. [/QUOTE]
