Clan:Subsistence

Subsistence was founded in June 2009, with the hope that we would be able to create a great clan, based in democracy, and open to all. Today, those ideals still hold.

2.Join our clan chat as a guest, and get someone there to post on your application to verify that you were there.

3.Get 4 "Yes" votes on your app.

Some people who are in a clan which doesn't allow multi-clanning choose to become a Clan Friend instead of a full member.

New Abilities: Can see all but the private forums.

When you are accepted, this rank signifies that you are now a full part of our clan.

Diplomats are those sent from other clans not to simply be friendly, but to coordinate events between our clan and another.

New Abilities: Can access a subforum devoted to events involving 2 or more events, such as wars or skill races. (Unique to this rank)

Exclusive Member
Exclusives are noteworthy for paying for a subscription that helps cover the cost of running the forums.

New Abilities: Can access the Exclusive specific forum, which includes a Leadership Leaks and an NSFW subforum (Unique to this rank)

Helpers are assigned to complete specific jobs that wouldn't neccecarily be a Director's duty. These jobs include keeping a history record and scribing meetings.

The Events Team, handpicked by the DoE, is the main force behind generating events for the clan. Don't be misled, though; any member can make an event.

Seniors are quite a difficult rank to obtain. To gain this rank, you have to be in the clan for 3 month, be extremely active, and make a noticable impact all the while.

New Abilities: Can access everything that the Events Team and Recruitment Team can, along with a Senior Lounge forum.

Legendary Members
The highest non-leader rank available, it is easily the most difficult to obtain, and the most prestigious to own. Though each is handpicked by the leaders with no specific guidelines, the traits looked for include being a supreme example of a Senior Member, contributing in a major way to the clan on a number of occasions, and having held a leadership position in the past.

New Abilities: Can access all areas of the forums (Minus the Leadership areas), have Super Moderator status, can kick guests from the Clan Chat, and get thier biography in the public forums.
