    Welcome to GamersClans.com

    We aim to be a resource for clans, a place to set up up alliances, find new members and also for players to come and look at clans and discuss with other gamers. For a tl;dr version, check the spoiler.
    Cant post in the recruitment forums? You need five posts, and you submit your clan here, not via the forum it self.

    The rules
    1. Double posting your recruitment thread is not allowed (1 post per platform).
    2. You need five posts before being able to post in the recruitment forums. 1 word posts and multiple posts replying to a single thread will be deleted.
    3. Any recruitment outside the clans forums will be deleted. This also include The Battlegrounds (scrimmage forum).
    4. Signature limits: Max 3 external URLs, 250px max height (total), 3 images. Signatures will not be able to exceed 250px (visually). Maximum image dimensions: Height: 250px. These will be manually enforced.
    5. Recruitment thread hijacking of any kind will be frowned upon, severely, with warning and deleting of post. Multiple offense of this one will first result in deletion of your recruitment thread, as well as temporary revoking of posting privileges in the recruitment forums.
    6. Spamming = banning

    I have deleted tons of threads lately, and even some that are hijacking other clans threads. I don't know how much clearer I can make it, I have notices everywhere, almost every forum links to these rules, and still we get tons of posts in the wrong forums.


    TBH, I don't ask for much, I ask for 5 posts. In return you get the benefit of our site building, which we have done quite well in a short time. We are top ranked on google for searches like PS3 clan, PSN Clan etc, some clans even get a higher placement on google through their post here. All I ask in return is 5 posts, which is allot less than most other link building sites ask for.

    Sorry for the rant, it just gets a bit frustrating when I have to delete half the posts here, because some aren't reading the rules. It is especially infuriating with those that hijack others threads....

    Again, allot of new members don't read the rules. I have changed the terms of service, I have notices all over the place, I have stickies in most forums explaining how it works. If you come on here and post your links all over the place, you are a spammer, and will be treated as such. We allow you to advertise your clan, not spam in every topic you can find.

    lol

    At least I got to try out the spam cleaning tools in the forum suite, it works pretty well. Two clicks and all the posts from the user is gone... I am thinking disallowing links and signatures before hitting five posts as well...

    That is probably a good idea.

    Yeah, looking in to it now, I though making the recruiter role more attractive was a way of doing it, but I guess just disallowing some features by default will be the way to go....

    I have done some updates today, added some help pages with new users guide:
    http://www.gamersclans.com/help/newbie

    I've also added in an about us and a placeholder for a Privacy Policy, which I need some time before I have ready. I am also gearing up for the EU cookie law, though there I will only use implied consent. Also, there are new node icons and logo today :)

    Hi,

    I have a questions, about clan recuitment posts.
    You say that BF3 and MW3, so would I post in multi gaming if we play both, as it say they are classed as one post, is that per platform?

    If you play both of those, you should post in the mother FPS forum, if that is most suited. FPS + CoD + BF are counted as one forum, Various and Multi gaming are separate forums.

    I'm glad I visited this section first. It's very difficult to know what you can and can't post when you first visit a forum and this thread makes it crystal clear :D

    I agree with LadyHazard. I'm glad to have found a site as well run for this type of thing.
