Just asking, can mods/staff members join clans? Because, I have never seen a mod in any clan, I assumed that WPM restricted them, due to possible insults hurlted at them for being (possibly) bais.
 
i don't see why not.mods are just,people on these forums,like everyone else,they just make sure things are all,in order.i would think they'd be aloud:)
 
As I have told every mod since day one...

Any mod caught in ANY CLAN will be de-modded and TAR AND FEATHERED. As a mod of PokeBeach's forums, YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO BE HUMAN and CANNOT have ANY fun!


Honestly, I think it's because most of us don't have the time, and the grammar and spelling of most members here is in the 4th grade range, at least in my opinion, and I want more intelligent fun. If people hear would bring more intelligent discussion into their posts and their threads, I would try to participate more. Just my opinion.
 
So mods can't join clans.

(This is an example only) "What if a member already joined a clan on 13/1/2007 and was promoted to a mod on 26/9/2007 ?

So the mod will automaticly unjoin the clan. Right.

Give an example of clans that are actually worth joining and uses this kind of language.

Btw, in other words, do you mean to say that if a mod wants to join any clan, he/she (Is there a female mod?) can do so he that mod wants to?
 
I guess so, as long as the mod doesn't mind being tarred and feathered. :p

Oh well. You can't blame them, most clans are made from 50% spam, 40% "i wana join" posts and 10% randomness, but there are a few good ones out there.

Self-reference, eh? But not all clans are mainly spam, we all know good examples.
 
Well yes, but there are three other good ones as well ;)

I didn't say all were spam, but you have to agree that most of them are. There's no telling just how many "10-posts-or-less" clans are lurking in the deep pits of the dead thread underworld, biding their time, waiting for a spammer to revive them...

Oh, well, anyway, there's a lot.

Really? Like? Anyway, I agree with you about the less-than-10-posts clans. Mostly created by LV.

it seems alot of posts there are just clans or clubs started for absolutely no reason at all.like clans based on one pokemon or clans that just,have no purpose whatsoever.
 
There are no female moderators. I'd go so far to say that there's less than ten female members.

No clan sounds interesting to me. That's why I haven't joined any. There was that "beach elite" or whatever for D/P, but that kinda died.

FYI, that clan died 7 years ago. I do mean pages.

Uh, WPM, you were talking about grammar/spelling... well uh, what about YOURS? :p  I just thought I'd bring that up.  

Getting back to the topic, it does make sense that the mods don't join clans/clubs.  They have other things to be doing, like they have to mod the forums and they probably have lives, unlike some of us. (Me included.:p)
 
WPM has basically summed it up quite nicely. I don't want to make us sound any better than any other member on the forum but the mods are older than the majority here and like to undertake in more intelligent discussion which is not offered in any of the clans.

I personally don't want to join any clans since I don't really see the point in them being any benefit to me and they're usually filled with n00by members who lack decent spelling and grammar.

And as Kronar kindly stated above: I have a life.

That post was made at 1 in the morning with a serious headache. I'm surprised that's the only thing I got wrong. :p

We need more intelligent discussion on our forums in general...

Gawd, I'll get lynched by all the other clans if I actually say which ones I like. Best to keep it zipped :]

I would of liked to have kept the beach elite going, but ever so slowly it was mutating into one giant ball of spam. There wasn't much point in keeping it open really, not much discussion or anything was taking place and it wasn't different from any of the other clans apart from its size. You could say it was the very first clan, but considering most are spam it's nothing to be proud of.

Perhaps you should open an intelligent discussion thread, ho hum.

Anyway, as to why mods don't do clans, it's probably an image thing. I have to admit, if I were a mod on here (LOL) I probably wouldn't join- it just wouldn't look right would it?
 
Image? Ha. Maybe for you.

If there was a Love Hina clan, I'd join it in a heartbeat.
 
So I suppose this is the reason ArmaldoEX does not become a moderator even after handling newbies the...erm...that way.
