Joining A Clan

Ok so I think I want to join a clan, but I'm not sure which one is the right one for me. I still don't understand a lot of this stuff so please be patient with me while I figure it all out.

I've gotten some pretty helpful advice from a friend so far, but looking for just a little more. I want to find a Gears of War clan.  I'm not the best player, but I like the conversation and the fun.

So far I've been told that Art of War would be a good clan for me, but it appears that they're full. I know a small amount about Old Man Mafia, but I've been told that's mostly Halo 2, which I don't really play.

So anyone who has some helpful advise let me know.

Well Strategic Insomniacs is always looking for people to play Gears with. And its interesting how I saw your blog RIGHT AFTER someone posted in the clans forum that we needed female members. If you are at all interested, lemme know and I can bring you in on a couple of matches and see how it goes. Just a word of warning though, we name-call and crack bad jokes and all that. All in good fun of course. gamertag: Gatsu Godhand

For the record, Old Man Mafia is not a mostly Halo 2 clan anymore. We have a pretty diverse mix of games we play. You have been in some GOW games with us. Just hit BigOne, Trupundit, or Rockcrawler up if you want an invite. Afterall, it is the best darn clan around. Everyone else are just posers :wink: . Even the most active posting clan on the site was formed by a former OMMer (whats up Kid). Of course I think we are the most fun but there are alot of great ones out there. I believe you will benefit the most from the site if you join one. Good luck.

OMM is not just a H2 clan. We play a lot of different games including GoW. Our creed is to "Have Fun" so no worries about your skill level. My advice is try playing with different groups and see whom you fit in with the best. :)

I'd suggest asking one of our AoW moderators Doscon or GAINER32 to see may be they'd open up a spot for you. Have may be an AoW clan member vouch for you.

Yes, Art of War is cool. At first I thought it odd that I had to sign over all of my material posessions to the clan...but I have since been told that I am happier now because I am poor. My advice is to find folks that are on when you are on and who add to the fun. Some clans seem to form their own identity and have their own little quirks.

Remember you can join multiple Clans and play with a diverse group of people. Just populate your FL with good peeps and you will always have game invites galore.

2old4tactis is a disorganized bunch of foul-mouthed incompetents. We're fairly schizophrenic in our choice of games and seem to pretty much go whichever way the wind blows. We're unruly, offensive, and quite possibly all going to hell. But if you're just looking to play a few games and have a good time, you might want to pay us a visit. I would, however, suggest a visit before making any decisions as we are an, ahem, acquired taste.

AoW is always looking for quality gamers. Quality doesn't necessarily equate to skill either. I'll send you a PM to follow up.

AoW isn't full, we are great clan with really cool people to play with. If you are interested add a few of us to your FL and I'm sure you will be welcomed. As stated above, Gainer32 and doscon are the power mongers to add and remove people.

Strategic Insomniacs is a great bunch of laid back guys. We play for fun. I think you've already played with some of us. Perhaps the best clan here! We play GOW the most but do play others. Watch out for the smoke tag.

Dont be in a hurry. Let all the clans "wine and dine" you, narrow it down to a couple choices. Then ask people from within the clan what their take is on their clan and overlord. Next ask people outside of these clan members and see and see what input you get. When you have all the info.......no reason to wait then! :)

You do have an open invite to the Old Man Mafia. I have heard nothing but good things from many of Da 'Family that have played with you. We are all about fun. Not any certain game, just fun. Their are MANY MANY great clans on this sight. I think you have some great choices in front of ya. No matter who, I think you will have a good time. Any questions, feel free to PM me, or Big0ne or or any of the other 5 or 6 folks that postes above from the OMM. Rock

He really likes lamp. :) There are a bunch of really great clans, and even more great people. You don't have to affilliate unless you find one that makes you comfortable. Get in the Ladies' Playground forum and ask the women their take.

Unless you are a Halo player the Clan option is more for forum access, since Gears doesn't support a clan system, (wish they did!). Anywho, they are lot's of great clans here, just see who it is you hang out with the most and you enjoy playing with the most, then ask them about what clan they are in....many people are in more than one clan too. Good luck:)
