I'd love to get something started in terms of creating a Special Forces/OIA division. I got some pretty nice ideas to make it as interesting as possible, but first I need to get the "right" to create it, from what I've seen in this thread so far.

I'll be sending Pred the answers to the questionnaire he put up, since that seems to be the way as of now. Anything else that you guys wanna let me know that I should do before I make the thread, feel free. smile

EDIT: I forgot that those questions aren't 100% ready yet, from the blanks. Should I fill them in for Pred? (lol) Or just wait for him to update the test?

I would like to make an Order of Light clan. I asked for userbars in the sig request thread, so they should be coming soon.

Alright, alright, I went through all of the threads on this first page and, it's time for me to let you all know a few things. Everybody.

Listen up.

1. None of you carry any authority....not even me, over "who can make whatever thread". So you all need to just, cut that out of your speech pattern. I have the responsibility of keeping things civil and in order by rule of the "Elder Gods", "Gods", and "Portal Guards" of this whole site in combination with the Com Faq.

Note: In general on all of the forums here..."Tough talk" is laughable. Take my advise to heart and just cut it out.

Same thing with the whole "150 visits" thing....Ditch the rule cuz the dialers around here are screwed up. I realize you just didn't know better. ...Now you know(go ahead and edit the post)

2. You will not come in here, decide you wanna make up some clans, and start little silly "wars" with the other factions. It's not gonna work that way people. You're only gonna get on peoples nerves, and I will not sit here and not say anything to you. (So this is also everyones warning)

We all are to remain civil about these if we're gonna have them, and have fun with them. Therefor, if you want to be that "GrandMaster" of a clan on MkO, you need to be a really creative person without stepping on anybody...

Another thing pertaining to this that I found out just now, DO NOT spam other forums with these clans. It really is a ridiculous thing to do. Everybody who comes to MkO has a computer and some kind of mouse. They can find their way over here through links in your sig space, or by just wondering over to this Forum by themselves. DON'T try to pressure or persuade people to join your silly little clan, if they are interested in what you are doing, they'll come to you. That my friends, is against the rules of this site anyway.

3. I am led to beleive by all that I saw in the most current clan threads, that you guys think it's about competing with the next clan or something....Nu Uh. That's one of the farthest thing from being associated with these factions.

What you wanna understand is that, MkO is the most popular Mortal Kombat site on the web. Which means, we have alot of people coming here that are new, thinking that they can:

a. "actually play Mortal Kombat" here
b. "people coming here for the community and just want to talk to the other users here"
c. "people just looking for information on the game"(which is the majority)
d. people coming here for art stuff (Animations, Fakes, Sigs, Wallpapers//Avatars//Fan Art ect..)

After all that is realized, and they get comfortable within the community as is, we don't need them to get the site conduct confused with what you are doing in these threads. Which is only partially wrong of you so far...

4. I'll say it like this, NO Competitions....unless of course it is tasteful and everyone can enjoy themselves. I'm gonna go ahead and say that I don't believe any of you should be the leaders of those respected clans so far. When I went through all the threads here, at least once, All of you were skulled for something directly relative in the MkO Com Faq......It's like a sore thumb I swear. Some of you have only read some of the Faq.....

Since there is already a system in place to delegate authority and responsibility....you guys need to recognize it.

Anyone who is a leader of one of the clans that wants to start some kind of "competition" with another clan will HAVE to run it by me first. Don't worry, ask around, I'm a cool dude.

But before any thread is made about "Clan Face Offs" or anything, and until the leaders here show improve, this is how we'll do it. Don't wanna comply? I can always call my buddies with the Thread Keys and Ban Hammers.

Get me?

5. You all need to read, or re-read the Community Faq to better understand how this site works. Yes, every clan GM thus far too...you all need some work. The whole thing....don't just skim the faq.

There are things in place that supersede these "clans" called Ranks(among other things), check my shinny little badge out, right beneath my avatar....Im a Shadow Preist. Doesn't mean much to you until you've accumulated enough Dragon Points, or Skull Points to rank up, or clock out(Yes, too many skulls and you are banned from the site).

If you don't know about the other ranks...go find out. I won't list up everything here for you.

6. I thought about having every one of these closed up, wait a while, and then start all over. Cuz I like the idealism behind these "clans". But currently, it's being executed poorly. And that's on the conduct side of things mainly...

I don't want anyone else to "decree" themselves a clan leader and make a thread until we come up with a small test collectively(maybe 10-25 questions), and all the leaders answer all the questions through the Pm system to me. New leader or not. We can come up with the questions here in the thread since it's not that serious, but the answers to the questions need to come to me BEFORE any other clan threads are made..or closed.

umm....I know I forgot something. I might be editing this post right now...

The whole thing sounds like a good idea to me. I think you "should" close all the clans threads for now and reopen them after everything is discussed and organized the correct way.

ok, we could create a test for this.....i like it EDIT: just so you know, before this incident with kashanol, we were a circle of three....i mean 5(i had two gm's, and black drg had 2) we were ok with the whole idea, but then all of these other people tried making clans...they didnt....pan out, one might say. then when kashanol said what he said about nightcrow, that was it. we were tired of these clans, especially the white lotus, and, well...we wanted to do something about it. then.....he got banned, but comes back later to flood my inbox with all this junk about how he's going to get back at us for banning him. and so...that circle of three has grown apart, if you want to know why we made it, look at the clan rumurs(he cant spell) thread. the proof is in the pudding. before him, we were just going to make a competition of 5 clans, five members each. i hate how this turned out.

it's funny... i keep sending PM messages to kashanol, but he doesn't answer... i've sent quite a few already, but he just keeps silent. confused


anyways, i agree that we must start from scratch, this time with the aid of Predator, who i believe likes this whole clan idea, but is fed up (as we all are) with all the flaming that these noobs are creating..

i'm all for starting this whole thing from scratch smile

1. I put in the order to have all the threads closed so we can start all over.

Those threads are done for, I wouldn't even bother bumping them any more.

Now, starting from the ground up let's go here first:

2. Drop all the immature little grudges you have with whoever...I don't even care who it is man....Nobody does really, we're more here to get rid of that kind of problem altogether(all sides are guilty until proven innocent....or is that visa versa?wink hmph..lol It was a joke, it was a joke).

Honestly now, it's not changing the world, and for insisting to engage in little spats like that, you only tarnish your image as a "Leader" more and more. How will your clansmen respect you if you constantly let little stupid shit set you off? So stop it.

Furthermore, if there becomes a problem between any two persons or parties, I will see it...I will take care of it. Just as I have before you guys got around to all this "clan" business. Just as I will after all this stuff is settled.

**3. Show me how to properly edit this post so that it only shows my name in bold and nothing else. Like this:

ThePredator151


(this is how we'll go for a while, and as we progress, things will get tougher K? It'll be fun, don't worry..haha I'll wait for maybe 5 people to reply to these subjects with opinions and the "**" part.)

This thread could merit some test for a clans possible GM. That way, people understand what they're getting into before a clan is started.

Some types of questions I might add to a "test" are:

a. What does MkO stand for?

b. Where do you go to get___on MkO?

c. What's the rule of____on MkO

d. What forum should you post a subject like____?

e. How do dragon and skull points work?

f. How do images work?//Where can you go to find out?

g. How do you reply to someone?//How do you edit a long reply post?

ect ect ect...

wow man i'm here from a year and except for MKO and dp/skull i don't know any of the answer!

well, these are test questions. b-d are based to put whatever in the ___

Who do you think told Nightcrow? I not mad or anything though, it's cool.

Anyway, I guess if the clans are all going to come back, I'm cool with them being closed momentarily.

Don't be ridiculous. I haven't conversed with any of you directly, or indirectly. The "concept" was all mine to have all the current "clan" threads closed.

-------anywho----


Aptitude

Intellectual ability of an individual to learn material sufficiently so that he can properly perform the business task required on the job. Some individuals have a natural talent and tendency for specific business areas. An example is a trial lawyer with an intellectual and quick mind for question asking and logic.


"Lack of" in aptitude will kill the concept for you......possible "Clan Grand Masters"

No one is sufficient thus far...

Pred, I do have a few ideas of questions that could be asked in a "GM" test, and I'd be glad to suggest them if it'll help things move quicker and for the better.

Should I just post them here in the thread of PM them to you?

Sure thing.

Here's a few, including some new ones:


The Test



1. What does MkO stand for?

2. Where is the list to contact the staff of MkO?(link or whatever)

3. Where can you go to view all the ranks on MkO?

4. What pictures does the Q&A thread in the Overall Forum have in it that pertains to the Clans specifically?

5. Give me any three things that gets you a skull point? Where is the only place you can see them?

6. What is the code that makes images work?//Where is the HTML FAQ?

7. How do you use the spoiler tags?

8. How many smilies(emotions) can you have in one post?

9. How many forums are there right now?

10. How many open threads can one person have open at one time, in one forum?

11. How do you change the color of MkO for yourself?

12. Where in the "faq", did I get this?Under what title(heh):

# No spoofing. Spoofing is when you create a username that is too similar or a variation on an existing name in order to confuse others as to whom a person is. Do not create a username to intentionally mislead others into thinking you are a member of the Mortal Kombat Online staff, Portal Guards, or known people in the MK universe (i.e. Ed Boon, John Vogel). Users found violating this rule will have those accounts banned.


13. Where on the ranking system is a Realm Ambassador (MKO Network Webmaster)

14. Post up the rule on Flaming.

15. Post up the rule on Spam.

16. Post up the rule on Bumping

17. Search the Fan Submission Forum topics for a MKO User named Aculeus. What is his "Contest Entry" a picture of?

18. What is a stickied thread? What forum(s) are they in?

19. In which forum should these threads be made?:
a. "The Ps3 Releases a smaller, sleeker version!!" or,
b. "Help!! My Wii Nunchucu Broke! or
c. "What's your Xbox Live user tag?"
d. "Mk8 Graphics"
e. "My sprite animation"
f. "Thread Bombs"
g. "How much is a PsP where you live?"
h."Fresh Meat" What's up MkO?
i. "MkTrillogy glitches"
j. "Mortal Kombat Defenders of the Realms: Voice Actors
k. "MKDeception Krypt Legend"
l. "Mortal Kombat was Great in the 90s"
m. "Kak Accessories"

20. What is the "Thread Master" and, what is "The Starter Post"?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~FIN~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now, this is the one, and only test that I want the answers to be posted up IN HERE. Any following (probably 1 or 2 more, and maybe a general one that changes from time to time. That one could be used for people who want to be the GM for a new clan) will be answered by sending them to me via Pm. Those test will be posted up in here though.

Do Not correct anyone in here just yet. because I will post up the answers to all of these questions in about a day or so for those who have interest in being a "Clan Grand Master", and have answered the questions.

Anybody can answer this quiz because this is just for fun and will better your time here on MkO. But those interested in being a clan GM should make it known when you post up your answers. A simple "I wanna be the GM for: Blah Blah Clan", then post your answers is fine.

Also, as some of you know, I like to give rewards for things well done. So, for this test only, people who get 95% or more of these questions right will get a dp or two(haven't decided yet). The questions are pretty easy imO so, that's why there's so many questions there......Harder next time? Probably less questions.

If you pass all The Test and become a GM, there will also be a reward. That's all I'll say about that right now.

After these initial test are complete, and our first couple of GMs are selected, we'll start building up a general faq, or "database" for all the clans. As you can probably imagine, it will be alot like the faq for MkO(just less extensive, and more specific for clan puposes).

Then we'll get into what the clans can do, making clan threads, their ranking systems......and Then maybe we'll start on some "friendly competitions". I'm a concept kinda guy myself, so I always welcome ideas.

That's how we'll do it for now, things will be adjusted as we go along.
Have at it and good luck!!

I wish to be a Grandmaster of the Black Dragon clan, because i am a responsible person, and i have grow a lot with some problems that i've been through lately with new members and stuff. I am patient, i try to help new users in areas that they don't master. Since i joined MKO (almost a year ago), i have grow as a person, and i learned to respect other opinions, even when their purpose is to attack me in any way. Th Black Dragon is my favourite faction amog all the ones that are shown in the MK universe. I am COMPLETELY addicted to Internet, so when i am not at school, almost all my time is passed online (this means entire nights too sometimes), and so i can be a very "always here" Grandmaster, to be informed on the latest events of MKO, conserning and non-conserning the clan database. I try to respect everyone, and so, if i reach the GM status in this clan, i will not act like if i am a "superior" member, or like if i have some kind of "authority" over lower ranked members, or new members.

Hm. I'm a little bit confused here, so instead of acting right away, I'd rather get this cleared up. Now that Nightcrow has already given his answers to Pred's test, then does that mean that the rest of us interested in a clan should wait for a new test to be posted? Or may we just give our own answers to this same test?
