Before you go out thinking of recruiting, remember one thing; Why you are recruiting! Don't think of a quota that you have to fulfill, don't think that your clan needs to get more people because your numbers are low... Instead, remember why we are a comunity to begin with... We are friends, we are rivals, and above all we are gamers (most of us competive ones, but gamers none-the-less)!
Prospecting
The very first thing you want to do is go out there in matchmaking and be a shining example of what we are about in XG. While doing this, talk to people, get to know them, befriend them. Before you even talk about having them join your clan, casually find out how old they are... Find out what their views on cheating are (by doing this before you read off the honor code when you recruit them you increase your chances of finding out if they are an avid cheater or something along those lines)... Once done, and you know how old they are and they are not a big time cheater, then you know which division you are recruiting for, if they are a day or more under the age of 18 you will not recruit them in XGCbut instead, XGG (for the girls of any age) KoG (for any body of any age) or the red headed step child known as Syndicate (for those smack talkers of any age out there).
-Also find out if they have any other gamer tags in other online communities, and know that they cannot be in XG while being in those other online communities.
Second
Find out if they have any history with XG: If they have ever been in XG (KoG, Syndicate or XGC). If they have been in XG before, know that they are not in XG currently, and you will not recruit them, as they have left and our rules stand on former XG members, regardless why they are not in, once you leave XG you are not get back in unless the very rare circumstance comes to be, that they go before the council and allowed back in. (<--- My advice is not to waste your time.)
Use your best judgment on who you want to recruit, we recruit Quality over Quantity.
Recruiting
Recruiting
Now you are free to Recruit. Ask them if they would like to join. (Once you have gotten to know them and you are buddy-buddy with them, it's extremely easy now) If they have an interest in joining, go off these steps not in any particular order, JUST MAKE SURE YOU DO THEM.
Read off the entire Honor Code. Make sure they understand it and accept in and will follow it.
Tell them about the rank structure. Go over each rank starting with recruit and work your way up to council. Teach them how to Identify each rank... once done, make sure they will respect the chain of command as it is one of the pillars in our structure and organization.
Have them register on Xiledgaming.com & ClanCompete.com and have them make a post in our squads forums, that way you know they can find their way to our forums and that they know how to post. (Be sure to help navigate through the site once they have registered here... They must register on this site with seven days of their recruitment.
Now, have them change their colors to all steel and get them a clan invite in the game, and then have them join your clan Officially here in the site. If a captain, or a general is not online make sure they are on your friends list and have them wait until they can send them an invite... (NOTE: A captain must be in the same party with them and will NEVER send an outstanding clan invite.)
Every one is to recruit in the same way. It doesn't matter if they are family, friends since birth, or divine... You will make sure you recruit correctly.
