Alright. Ill share some wisdom with you guys. Lol, combined Ive been a general for atleast 18 months! lmao. In XGC, KoG, XGC and KoG at the same time, and of course, the Syndicate! Most of the time 3 or 4 clans at the same time
lmao, anyway
Its fairly simple on how to run a successful clan. make sure you have great captains, and everyone has the rightul rank they deserve. Dont be afraid to promote, nor Demote members. As long as youre honest with them, and not harsh, they'll understand what youre doing and be fine with it.
Get 1 captain and of course 1 lt, for every 10 ACTIVE members or so. I treat the SGT rank like the LT rank pretty much. A captain chooses his liut. so it can be hard to get that rank. So I've always been open to promoting a sgt to captain. This way, a good squad is about 1 capt. 1 liut. and 3 or 4 sgt. Where the captain is working hand and hand with them to get them all ready for a captain spot while I work with the captain to get them ready for a general spot.
Also, you need to be active yourself, make sure everyone is active on the forums, make sure they all know, understand, and obide by the rank structure and honor code. You need to keep interest in your clan. So hold atleast one clan meeting a week, have your captains stat clan compete teams so they can hold meetings, practices, and work with their squads better, etc etc.
Last but not least, DO NOT recruit to fast. For instance, dont say stuff like recruit 20 people and you get a captain rank. Say your clan has 50 active members in it, if they each recruit 1 person a week, (which is VERY easy) each time you do your squad list you would have 100 new members! Its like a house, you need a good strong foundation to build onto, if you do it to fast and big, it will get top heavy and fall apart!
Youre welcome
