Club Application Guidelines

[Amethyst]

Okay, so we have a fancy new club system, and I can see a solid handful of you are rarin' to get some fired up. That's great! First, let's talk about the types of clubs.

• Public-- Anyone can view and anyone can post. You don't have to be a member to be involved.
• Open-- Anyone can view topics but you have to join to contribute. Anyone can join. 
• Closed-- Anyone can see the club and who's in it, but to join or participate you have to be approved by the leader
• Private-- Entirely hidden clubs. Users have to be invited by a leader to get access.

 

Of these, only Private clubs will be approved without application. Those are free-reign! For anything else, you can submit an application using the Staff Contact page! It is linked under the Home drop down menu at the top left. Instructions are there, but I will go over more detailed steps in this thread.

 

• First, we're assuming you want to make a Public, Open, or Closed Club. In that case you need to get a total of five people together who are willing to be in the club. That's the minimum!
  • Clubs who lose members and have fewer than five for a long time may be deleted... so you know, if you ever wanted to force the main character into your club so it doesn't have to disband, there you go.
  • We might check in with the other members listed at random, so don't just go including people without them agreeing!
• You'll also need to decide on a Vice President-- someone to help you moderate the club. We're assuming you're going to be the president if you're starting it, so you've got that covered.
• Next, navigate to the Clubs page. If you are a Veteran or higher, you should see a button at the top right that says Start a Club! Create the club, select the type, and fill in the details. It won't appear just yet though!
• Finally, use the link above and jot down your details. Once we've checked everything out, we'll approve the club and you can go to town!

 

We hope you'll all have lots of fun with the new system. Enjoy!
