I am goign to show them that I can make a clan and make it great and last for a long time. Come at me, the Marines are not backing down from nothing, we are going to stand up and fight and as long as I got connection to toribash, this clan never will ever die. Not in my book, I ain't giving up that easy.

Guys, we are a family and nothing will break our bond. Don't let this hating get to you. They are only hating because we are doing something they cannot do. We are going somewhere no one else can do. I could care less about what the community thinks, as long as I got my toribash marines standing by my side, nothing will stop me. I love each and every one of you like you are my brother. I am here for you and I will stand up for you. Ask anyone who I see hating on the marines, that's why they don't do it around me beacuse they know I will blow the heck up on them. I don't tolerate crap talk toward this clan. We are a family, and they know it. I am the leader and I stand up for all of my members.
Short Post
Felt like writing this
Saying eloquent stuff wouldn't help if the leader and clan don't feel the same. This rather feels more like a rebellion to me, but If you want success with this clan you need to accept your errors first and start thinking as a leader, not as a member. Don't be scare to kick, chances are ok but don't give to many. The reason why so many clans are failing is because they just don't understand the responsibility and effort that takes to make a clan. They just create a clan for a [TAG], just to have a space to write non sense and stuff that you could do in a chat. You should care what other says, they're viewers and the ones who determine how well organized that clan is. Of course you must create and solidify a bond with your clan so it doesn't fall apart, but first you need to refine and give form to that bond that will keep the clan united. Stop recruiting with filling apps forms, let them decide if they truly want to join your clan, filling apps are just bad and they should at least work hard to be able to join. Let them express freely, anyone can fill an application, is the same with filling exams
______, if you don't know the answer you just write something random. But if the exam was free form: "define with your own words" you would put more thoughts on it, even if you write something that is not quite the answer.
You're not a bad leader but you need to work harder and refine your members, gain their trust. Even if the pillar "leader" is strong, if the bridge "members" don't have the strength to keep solid and bare the weight, it will crumble anyways. About the raging matter, you can't do anything about it, that's the kind you recruited. Raging is a reaction seen in a any game when the person is constantly beat to the point of angrily quitting the game or match. Don't recruit people who wish to be the best, recruit people who want to have fun and have a good time in a clan that feels the same. Skills can be acquired later on, let them grow with the clan. About the maturity and understanding of the members, free form apps works to identify that, just read the apps and see how understandable and mature and of course, their reasons to join the clan. In-game recruiting isn't bad at all, but remembers that you can't define a well player by the way he/she plays, define him by the way he/she acts and behave. You could maintain a clan with a few first, gain their trust so that you can at least have people you can trust to support and bare the out coming so they can help the new members to improve in-game/in-forum. I think I typed enough, good luck with your clan and feel free to PM me if you want my help, cheers!
