What can I do to stop people leaving in a mass exodus if they start thinking that since he left, the clan is dying? Thanks, Jack. Hey,

In a game like Spark the community is not bigger than 300 people where most (if not all) of the serious players are in other clans.

I'm going to be running the blog with someone else soon. Once things get up and running again there will be regular postings. We also have a few more ideas up our sleeves that we hope to implement, as you're quite right about this being a unique niche. I'll make sure to do a few posts about reviving a dead clan, as this would be a good topic to cover. You should start to see some activity from us within the next month or so.

I noticed that your site hasn't had any new articles for a while, so maybe you can start a new one specifically for reviving a clan. I'd really like to see you keep adding new articles. According to Google, this is the only site that offers information like this, so you've found a perfect niche audience.

So screening members become a very important and vital task for me, as a clan leader, and also has proven to be very tiresome.

I suppose it depends upon the design of the game itself as to whether you can make someone an officer without giving them invite privileges. In my experience if your clan doesn't have any members in it to begin with, and your officers end up recruiting 20 bad members, then the worst that can happen is that you remove everyone and start over. However I've always found at least a few mass recruited members to end up being good quality members. But what you're saying is of course a much more correct way of doing things. Though I fear the newbie clan leader won't quite have an eye to prescreen members properly. Hi Kuhn,

Although you can ask them to pull members for you to check out before inviting them. Never give them invite previledges, you'll more often then not, get a player who never logs in anymore or just inactive. Rather, get them to show you people whom they want to invite, talk to them a little. Make sure they're friendly and the moment they try to start a mutiny or to rope in members in YOUR clan to join THEIR clan, kick them immediately and never let them back in. Just my experience. ~Kuhn From what I know about recruiting, it has always been a bad idea to get officers so early in the game.
