CLAN LEADER MEETING NOTES
- Thread starter XGC PMAR XS
- Start date
"The function of leadership is to produce more leaders, not more followers" (Ralph Nader).
Recruiting for Longevity:
We love it when our clans and clan leaders are go getters but, sometimes slower is better! With our recent transition in clan structure to be smaller, tighter and more intimate, It’s not always the answer to recruit in bulk. We would like to see clans build and grow but, also should be done at a pace at which each member we extend a membership to is treated in a way that they’ll be a forever memeber. Our structure is in a position currently where getting to know each member and having their experience be the focal point is better than ever. We aren’t telling you not to recruit we are just asking to take your time building long lasting relationships and friendships so that your clan can prosper for a long time!
Honor Code IV:
All XGC members are encouraged to share any issues or ideas through the chain of command and with XC/XI at ANYTIME! The leaders of Xiled Gaming believe in the open-door policy in order to encourage openness and transparency with all members of the community.

GWG:
If someone leaves the community or gets kicked, the only path for them back into the community is through either the GWG or by XC/XI approval. If someone is allowed back in, circumventing that process, the leaders responsible will be held accountable.GWG:
Discord Refresh:
The discords have underwent/undergoing changes to freshen/clean them up. If anyone has any feedback, suggestions, or concerns please pass that along to SYN EM XD
Pending Issue Resolution:
If you have an issue or concern you have brought to leadership please give them the time and space to get it resolved. Just because issues are not handled same day/night doesn’t mean the leaders aren’t gathering info or scheduling a meet with other individuals that your concerns may pertain to. Our leaders work as quick and as precise as possible so please give them the time they need.

Grass Wasn't Greener aka GWG
A GWG is only needed when a member is RETURNING to the community because they either LEFT or was REMOVED from the community. If they are returning to the community due to going INACTIVE they DO NOT have to post a GWG. If they are a Section Leader (XS) or higher then they are to reach out to the current XC's/XI's
Dating or Related to.
A member Can Not be dating or related to someone who is in leadership that is directly responsible for their advancement of promotion.
Meaning... If someone is a member starts dating or is related to a Clan Leader that member now has to transfer to a diff clan.
Reason... One can not be responsible for another's advancement in the chain of command. We do not want any unfair or bias decisions made.
Honor Code Section VIII
Honor Code violations consist of trash talking, t-bagging, discrimination, racism, sexism, harassment, illegal drugs, cheating, poaching, squad deranking, or any other aggressive behavior toward fellow online gamers. Cheating is defined as any manipulation of online play; this includes, but is not limited to moding, bridging, stand-bying, forcing host, action replay, glitching/super jumping in match making/ranked games to gain an unfair advantage, playing online custom / ranked games with Moders, and circle boosting. Every situation is different and will be handled appropriately on a case by case basis.
Here recently I have been getting messages stating there is some members who believe that because it's "Their Party and on Their Xbox" they can just say the N-Word. It doesn't matter if it ends with a R or an A. This will not be tolerated at all. If this is caught being done you will be demoted and or can be removed from this division and community.
Everyone in this division has read and agreed to the same honor when they joined this division. So we need to uphold this Honor Code also.

Transfers:
Leaders when we are doing a transfer. Let's make sure we are following the proper steps. There have been too many instances where members are asking for transfers, and leaders are taking it into their own hands and not properly handling the situation as it should be handled. Remember,
In-Side Sections - Transfers are done between Clan Leaders.
Outside Sections - Transfers are handled between Section Leaders
Outside Divisions - Section Leaders handle transfers unless it's a problematic member then Division Leaders will be involved.
We have 72 hours to complete transfers.
Importance of Clan List:
Clan List are important to have due to it lets everyone know inside said Clan who is a member. Also it let members know who the leadership is and Chain of command. Though some clans only have 1 squad. Its really important when we have more than 1 squad so members know who to go to with problems or questions. Updating our Clan Lists on the 1st of each month also helps show who is active and not active in the clan too. We need to make sure we are following our responsibilities as Clan Leaders and making sure this is being done.
Goals:
The Clan Leader is the team leader. In being that team leader, one of your most important task is having goals for you clan and setting the plan of action and expectations to achieve those goals. These goals are organic to each clan and should be updated and revised on a continuous basis. Example of some goals are growing the clan, growing the leadership, working on a squad leader, working on a clan split, communicating better with all members of the clan, better meeting attendance, etc.. As you can see the goals are determined by the clans need at the time, but there should always be a goal. So, if you do not have any goals set for your clan, it is time to take a look at your clan, work with the leadership and see what needs to be done to make the clan better. Your section leader is a great resource to help you establish obtainable goals for your clan
Professionalism:
Remember while being a member of Xiled Gaming you are expected to uphold a professional gaming demeanor at all times. There is no reason to be yelling at other members, messaging in all caps or trash talking other members in the community. We are all here for the same reason, to have a group of people that we enjoy gaming with every day. Remember the golden rule: treat others how you want to be treated.
