	A clan is a group or team of players which competes in tournaments or just meets very often in the groups' servers. Many clans have added themselves to a list which can be found [http://wiki.armagetronad.net/index.php?title=List_of_Clans here]. This text is focused on several ways to grow a clan, but it's also supposed to give a short description of their role in the Armagetron Advanced community.

	Clanwars are the reason why so many clans exist. As a matter of fact, many players like to compete with opponents who are on the same level, but first they need a reliable, well-organised team. However, the other side of the medal is ~~that there~~ usually ~~is a~~ big gap between the effort players put in regular games and the attention they pay during clanwars (since they want to win by all means). This is why some players think regular games are less fun than clanwars, ignoring that it's their own fault. In other words, playing with non-clan-affiliated players isn't any different when they are doing their best to win.		Clanwars are the reason why so many clans exist.

	Clan servers seem to have ~~involved into~~ a status symbol for clans, but originally they emerged when clans realised that they need a place to play together without being distracted (or distracting someone else). Many servers are provided by clans, some are popular, some aren't. An advantage of these servers is that you are nearly always able to find an admin when you need one, provided that there are enough members of the server's related clan around.

	5. A clan expects its ~~clan's~~ players to be active on the forum and in the game, otherwise it couldn't take part in any tourney.

The text of the application itself shouldn't be annoying, a clan doesn't care if you use a formal or informal style but it has to be proper (no special font size, colors you can read easily on this background, don't write all in caps unless you want everyone to interprete it as a shout).		6.

Clanmembers need to know how to communicate. It requires a moderate English skill to become a member. Of course, language and game experience isn't everything you need.

	8. ~~Clans also~~ don't care ~~about most of your private life's details, a clan are only interested in your age. If you like~~ you ~~can write your real name and occupation, interests, hobbies, whether you are paralyzed or not etc. - but it doesn~~'t ~~matter~~ in ~~your application. For things like that a clan have another department. There you can introduce yourself.~~		8. Popularity isn't a criterium. Most clans don't care as long as you aren't known as a reported pain in the neck.
	~~It is more important for clans that you behave friendly, respectful and intelligent (even when no other member is watching you), if you misbehaved and~~ the ~~clan has been informed about it you'll see that your application will be closed at once~~.

	9. ~~Popularity isn~~'t a ~~criterium~~. Most clans don't ~~care as long~~ as you ~~aren~~'t ~~known as~~ a ~~reported pain~~ in the ~~neck~~.		9. Skill is not all. Clans don't accept immature behaviour.

			10. The points listed above and below this one are only guidelines. Remember that a clan can also ignore your application without giving you a reason (if a clan just doesn't like you for example).

			11. Speak for yourself. If other people try to force the clan to accept you they will most likely not do so.

			12. Being part of a clan means also to be part of its up and downs. a clan need dedicated members. If you are unhappy or disappointed about something, go ahead and talk about it!

			13. Most clans won't kick inactive members for their inactivity. Some clans have an "inactives"-list.

			14.Administrators can check your IP, E-Mail address and collect information from other clans about you. Don't waste their time, they don't like people who apply more than one time without improving significantly, especially if they do it with different aliases as if they had to hide something.

			15. If you leave a clan because you don't see anyone online when you play, don't join.

			16. If you leave a clan because you cannot play in its most frequented servers, don't join.

			17. Most clans accept both American and European players. But your continent shouldn't be a reason to leave the clan. If you can't play in US/Euro lag, then you can't really play.
