HILOL! So you wanna join huh? No dramas, just create a new topic with your name on it, you can use this as a guide to applying:
1. Age (You must be 18+ unless you have a recommendation from a full time clan member)†
2. Seriousness [1 - 5]
3. Previous Clans?
4. Are you familiar with programs like xfire and ventrilo?

9. Who referred you to us?
What happens after that?
Well assuming you have a mic and you're given a trial, wait for an invite to our vent (voice chat) then come introduce yourself. Play a few games and just mingle. You're allowed to sign up for all scrims and wars once you're given a trial. We go from there. Get in touch with Huttsky or myself by email if you dont have a mic
Huttsky: huttsky@rf-clan.com
myself: cyzlak@rf-clan.com
† Under 16 years old do not apply and good luck finding a clan. 16-18 years of age requires an invite / recommendation from full clan member in particular division. If you comply, you will be under a review panel system (Captains & Clan Management) for duration of the trial period to provide feedback on maturity and performance. If this is completed to satisfaction of all concerned you will be granted full member status at the end of your trial period. 18+ applicants are exempt from this requirement. For more details email admin@rf-clan.com
Full Version: Guide For New Applicants
I'm just gonna add to this thread what I think myself, and the other guys in charge look for when we have a new recruit.
First and foremost, once we give you a trial, dont just disappear. Hang out with us. Say hi on the forums. Spam them up (within reason). Hop on Vent semi-regularly and play in pubs with the guys. I like to think that we are, primarily, more of a little community than just a 'team'. Most of us here are mates in some form or another both on and off the internet. Now, dont let that intimidate you, 'cause we're always willing to make new friends. We're tight knit, but not to the point where we dont want to allow new ppl in.
Secondly, whilst I stated previously we're more like a little community, we ARE also a competitive team. So sign up for a war or two once you're added to the relevant roster. Myself and the other captains need to see exactly how you work with the team in an actual match situation. We can think you're the best guy (or girl) ever, but if you cant work effectively in a team situation, there's not a lot of point. We dont expect you to be the best player ever, but just show the basics of being able to listen to your team mates, and work for the cause of winning and having fun. I don't expect triallers to carry the team (thats my job tbh
)
Lastly, dont try too hard. Dont be a tool. Just relax. I've seen triallers before who are just totally over the top.
So yeh. Interract, play pubs/wars, and dont be a tool. Chances are you'll be let in.

I'm just gonna add, people that aren't dumb will be looked on favourably. Also - people who have a decent grasp on the english language
