Mature Clan/Community Recruiting!

[Hotshot]

Many players who want to join a clan usually find themselves asking: "What clan should I join anyways?". For some it's the first clan they see; for others, their expectations are so high that they end up staying alone. Most people eventually find a clan of some sort, but they either end up leaving it due to inactivity or watch it fall apart. There are some good clans out there, and I'd like to think this is one of them. I hope you'll consider joining up and deciding for yourself.

I am Hotshot, the leader of Clan GIS- Guardian's Inner Sanctum. I founded this clan about one and a half years ago because I was in so many clans that failed that I decided to make my own and do things right.

So how is GIS any different from those other clans? Well, for starters, it's a clan that won't fall apart over the weekend like most clans do. We're active in the forums and online. Although fairly large, the clan remains as personal as anybody could possibly want. Also:

• Over 40 forums and sub-forums, so there's always something to talk about. The forums are a great place to lounge around, chat, and get to know your fellow gamers.
  
  
• A diverse player base. Our members range from some of the best in their respective games (mostly Diablo 2) to players that have just started playing, and just about everything in between. In this clan, you'll always feel like you're among friends; I practically guarantee it.
  
  
• Your voice will be heard. Almost all of the changes/decisions that are made are voted on by everyone in the clan who wishes to. The voting is done in polls in which all members can cast their votes. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to post their suggestions or feedback in the suggestions/feedback forum. I've also added a QOTW (Question of the Week) system, so everyone can leave their input regarding important issues while remaining completely anonymous. This prevents any bias on my part, and allows you to be completely truthful in your response to the questions without fear of judgment.
  
  
• A GFX community. If you're into GFX (experienced or still new), you can check out the tutorials, open up your own signature/avatar shop, and test your skills against other members, and other websites. If you're not a huge gamer, you can just join our forum as a GFX member. If you're not into GFX, you can still have forum signatures/avatars created for you by members of the GFX team for free.
  
  
• A competitive duel ranking system. The clan isnt centered on dueling, but if youre into dueling, you can test/improve your skills if you decide to join up with us. Theres even an elite ESCNL dueling division within the clan, so if youre really good, you can try out for that. (note: the duel ranking system is currently inactive, but will be up again after some revisions)
  
  
• Tags are not required. However, many members do use tags in their accounts and/or characters to show their dedication to the clan.
  
  
  
• A forum arcade. There are currently 36 fun games with working high scores so you can see how your score stacks up against other clan members. Make sure to try out the arcade if you decide to join up with us. The arcade is currently being rebuilt, so within a week or so there will probably be over 60 games.

Requirements:

• Maturity: We are a mature guild, and are only looking for mature members. Although age isn't always the best determinant of maturity, you must be at least 16 years old if you want to join the clan. Exceptions can be made for people that are younger than that, but act like they're at least 16.
  
  
• Respect: Treat your fellow clan members as equals. Nobody is a better person than anybody else, regardless of their experience or wealth.
  
  
• Obedience: As all clans, we have our own set of rules which all members are asked to follow.
  
  
• Selflessness: We don't want people to come to us looking for free items or a quick way to get rich. The knowledge and help you receive may help you get there eventually, but that should not be the main reason you join.
  
  
• Loyalty: You cannot be a part of another clan if you want to join us, unless you're in that clan because they play a game that we don't have an official division in yet (WC3, Guild Wars, WoW, etc).

If you're interested in joining, go to Clan GIS - Guardian's Inner Sanctum and fill out the application by clicking on the Join Us link.

Games/Realms:
Diablo 2 LoD: ESCL, WSCL, ESCNL, WSCNL (most -> least members)
MapleStory: GMS Khaini (Guild name - InnerSanctum)
Starcraft: USEast, but I dont think we have any starcraft players currently.
Warcraft 3 TFT: Azeroth (unofficial division)
Many members also play WoW on many different servers, but we dont have a WoW division yet.


Current total active members: 60+ (11/14/06)
Clan Channel: Op Clan-GIS (eventually moving to: Clan GIS)

Forum board: Clan GIS Forums
Website: Clan GIS - Guardian's Inner Sanctum
The forums were re-started about three months ago, so I'm still making a lot of changes and improvements.

[crimson-tide]

[Ares]

[crimson-tide]

the age lemit is my enemy lol

[Ares]

w/e say ur 16 doesnt matter as long as you dont act like a jackass

[crimson-tide]

lol

[Hotshot]

Yeah invisible, uhh, did you fake your application or something? I'm kind of concerned about you now. See, you may or may not have noticed, but people aren't allowed to fake their age as they'll get kicked out of the clan right away if they lie about it. It's also not about 'not acting like a jackass', but being mature.

There's also no guarintee of membership just because just because "Invisible sent ya". Even people who try to get in by invite have to go through the application proccess.

[Ares]

you must of been afk when we talked about this T_T but I already told you.. log on aim ill tell ya again :)

[crimson-tide]

haha, thats funny

faking ur age, just to get ina clan. lol, it would come out instantly though, as how old you are by how u act, so there is no reason to fake ur age....

[Ares]

im 16 i made it.. i act dumb on here... just cuz i feel like it. to get some cool assholes here mad that think they are the shit :) but yeah on al other forums i act my age.

[Hotshot]

Still recruiting :P

[takezandgoez]

Request to join? Im dont use clan forums by the way, waste of time, id rather use something quicker.

[Hotshot]

Oh well the clan forums aren't our 'main method of communication', if that's what you mean. They're better for more permanent topics, such as upcoming events, etc. It's also a clan/community, so, they're also there for the 'community aspect', since it's hard to hold a community together without forums. The forums are also a great place to look up members to play with and talk to in-game. You can apply to the clan if you'd like, but you'll really be missing out if you don't put the forums to full use.

...aaand we'll either be getting a TS or Vent server sometime, but maybe not too soon. I think that's what you were referring to.

Just wanted to let everyone here know that I've done a lot of updating since I've posted this thread. The joining method has been a bit altered and people have to register their accounts on their own, and wait for me to validate them (which I do every morning). The website's been changed around and improved quite a bit, the rules, FAQ, and all of that other good stuff is now availible for viewing, etc. We're getting lots of members from all over the place, including here. If you do decide to join, you'll probably see a few familiar faces. :)

[UltimateHacker$]

yo, im in, :\ now that u say it, ur right, and my clan freakin sucks, so, im in

You'll have to apply - there's no such thing as being in just because you say you're in :P. Invisible said he was in after his application was accepted.

I would be willing to join. I have 2 Vent servers from when I use to play Counter-Strike. I just started up in Diablo 2 again and so far I've just been messing around. I have a lvl 88 Auradin, MF Sorc,lvl 90 Uber Smiter, lvl 90 Fireball Sorc, and I'm deciding on whether I should make a hammerdin, barb, or bowzon next. But Idk..not sure if I do want to join a clan or not.

Wow, this looks Reaaaaaaaalllyy familiar. I saw this about a year ago on Blizzsector.

[Hotshot]

hommie: Vent or not, I hope you decide to try us out. If you don't like being in the clan, there's no obligation to stay.

zero: It wasn't a year ago X_X. This is a very similar thread to the one I had here during spring, I think.
