Firstly I would like to welcome you all to the XGL Clan Forums and to wish you good luck in this month's Clan Trials. The clan trials consists of joining Clan Members frequently in the games that you frequently play on so we can all get an idea on how you play and how you work as a team along with getting along with the current members, it is normal feeling like a stranger when you enter a new clan and so we now have a Recruitment Officer
XGL Partisan that is friendly and will go out of their way to make it a good transition for you in joining a new clan.
We are consistently updating the recruitment process to be better for new recruits when trialing for the clan so it is an evolving process.
For this month the Clan Admin and Recruitment Officers will be around more often to get to know our new recruits along with joining them in games with members and encouraging new recruits to be active on the forums. Our Recruitment officers is at hand to help out with the trials and helping you feel welcome when joining the clan. We are always looking for feedback especially from new recruits who have been through the trials to help us make the trials better. New recruits would have to make the effort on their part in contacting our members to get some games arranged and also you are encouraged to use the forums frequently.
The new age restriction as from July 2009 will be
16 and over this is to ensure we can bring in more players of a mature standard as we have recruited alot of under 16's into the clan over the month's so we do not look to become a clan for younger gamers as we have always been a mature clan with ages between 15-35 over the years with more members being older than 16.
The Clan Trial Duration will be
6 days with the 7th day being the day for members to make their vote along with the answers of the vote towards the late part of the day. The new voting system for the trials will be more vocal with the admin, game leaders and gaming squad members all being part of the online chat whether it be in a cod 4 lobby or a party chat over Xbox Live. The votes will be made in the chat and the admin will make the counts and then a post will be made in the council area that will state how many votes each new recruit had been given. once the votes has been counted then the admins can invite the new recruits into the lobby and let them know the final decisions and also to post in their applications whether they have passed their trials or not.
We are looking for new recruits to have a good level of skill with them so they can fit in with our current crop of members and help strengthen our gaming squads as we are a clan who likes to win our matches aswell as enjoying the matches, so our decisions of your trials are also based on your skill and working as a team aswell as clan activity both on these forums and on Xbox Live.
Clan Trial Requirements
We look for new members to be active both on Xbox Live & on the XGL forums. All Clan related subjects are all on these forums so this is why we require members to be active on the forums so they are up to speed on any clan related subjects and also the signing up of Clan Matches and Events are on these forums.
We do not expect you to be online everyday so the forums are a good base to organise a game when you are ready to play and join us in any games, joining members in games is required a lot as at the end of the trials they will make their vote in the polls so joining as many members as you can will enable you to receive a fair few votes. In the past we have recruited members that don't use the forums enough so we look to the new recruits to be active both on Xbox Live and these forums.
We also look for a degree of game skill in our recruits, although we are not an uber-competitive clan we still play to win and expect our clan members to aid us in doing so. Showing good awareness and teamwork in games is vital to ensure that you fit into the clan’s ethic of teamwork!
If you cover all aspects of the requirements then it is a good advantage in joining the clan however we have had recruits fail the trials in the past so we do not just accept anyone

also each new recruit that passes the trial will get a new recruit forum award

along with all the added privileges of being a clan member and you can signup to any upcoming clan matches once your member status has been activated.
