- Make sure you already have a ready core of members. Never start a clan with just yourself unless you have a very good reputation already.
- Make sure you have at least 4 members, minimum, otherwise you don't even qualify to obtain your own banner from the banner pack stickied at the top of this forum.
- Make your CLan Page on this forum. "reserve" the next two posts after the original post for convenience sake in case you need them later. Make sure your clan page is started by your most active player or your leader so that it can be edited often.
- Make your clan page look nice, not messy or cluttered.
- Play together often.
- Give your clan tag an easily distinguishable UNIQUE tag that is different from every other clan.
- Make sure when you reserve a banner that no one else is using it.
- Realize that if you want to be a clan that can participate in Strategus, you must have a character designated as a "main" and for the love of god don't designate lightly, as this makes all other characters "alts' and this is not reversable.
If you can do all of the above, then the answer is yes, you can start your own clan.
