Re: Clans to Close December 14th

When I first came here I wondered what the clans were. It seemed only select people had clan banners. I just figured it was like the clicks in school.

Just a couple of the reasons people are listing for needing their clans are...
1.) Making friends & keeping in contact with friends
2.) Posting posts/threads they like, but feel they can not otherwise

1.) As a non-clan member I have made some good friends. A couple of them are even clan members. Apparently my not being a clan member did not deter them from initiating contact with me. A few people PM/talk with me quite alot. I have had many members contact me after reading my posts, checking out my profile, or just seeing me listed as on-line. They found me without the need of a clan, even though some were clan members themselves. Some of them have maintained the contact without the need of a clan forum.

2.) I would think you would want to share your threads/posts with more members. This will enrich the forum boards, and give many more members the option of taking part in your fun. If you feel their is not a forum for some of the things you want to discuss, ask DragonBall. The worst he can say is no. Just use the PM system if you want to talk smack about someone. Plus you may find more friends if you read posts of non-clan members, as well as clan members.

I understand that it is just like you favorite hangout closing, but it is not the end of the world. You will just have to work a little harder to stay close. Look at the bright side, you may even find that their are new friends out there waiting to be found.
