how do I make my clan active I thought it just needed 5 people in it

Hi, this may be of use to you. Clan setup and guidelines

I made a clan thread now how do I get in active
o.o

Invite members and ask them to post.

Here's a relevant tutorial written by Ele about how to run a clan: http://forum.toribash.com/showthread.php?t=522039

Perhaps there is something that you can learn from it?

Well, the main thing to get your clan active is gathering at least 5, active players.
Once you have done maybe a war or 2. Or alternatively, have the members posting on the discussion thread frequently.
