A FEW POINTS BEFORE WE BEGIN:
YOU MUST APPLY TO JOIN!
You must apply using the application form in order to be accepted. An application form is required to ensure and maintain a forum- only membership, and also helps us to determine what clan you are best suited to.
WE WILL NOT ACCEPT PRIVATE MESSAGE REGISTRATION!
You must apply ON THE THREAD in order to be considered for membership- Private Messaging your application does not allow us to have a public record of your application, and also may take longer to reply, as you are only sending your application to a single representative.
YOU MUST USE THE PASSWORD!
You must use the family password,
‘forumite’ when requesting to join one of our clans. Type forumite into the clan join request and you will be accepted- if not, we will have to reject you.
ABOUT US
We were formed from a group of forumers who felt out of place in other clans. No where they felt like they ‘clicked’ with others, and no clan to call home, we founded the Forum Alliance to give forum- based clashers a friendly, interactive, and community experience. We are a small but steadily growing family that is currently based out of a single clan. We are open to forumers and players of any type: Bound, Rising and Soaring have no requirements for trophy, level, or game experience. Forum striking, due to its nature of being a hard- core pushing and farming events clan, does have level requirements.
We care about our members and what they want! We try and keep every one of our members happy and satisfied, and are willing to make changes based on what our members want. We are forum based for several reasons:
1. Mature, trustworthy, and quality players who will be loyal to a clan.
2. Fail- safe plan for rogue elder/ coleader: If members are kicked by a rogue, we can regroup on the forums.
3. Trustworthy and friendly atmosphere- you know the people in the clans from the forums! Make new friends and talk with old ones!
See our forum group here:
http://forum.supercell.net/group.php?groupid=1830
WHAT WE OFFER
- A forum based experience
- Talk with forum friends and find new ones!
- Good, fun environment.
- Mature discussion and player atmosphere.
- Active and friendly players.
- No more concern about leaving your clan for a forum event- we encourage participation in events like Forum Elite and U18 clashing!
- Fast- filled requests with the troops YOU want! High level troops of your choice in all clans!
- Clan wars often (But participation is NOT required for most clans).
WHAT WE EXPECT FROM OUR MEMBERS
In return for all the benefits we offer, and to help maintain our clans quality and standard, we expect certain things from our members:
Active DAILY in clan chat (Unless certain issues arise that you have discussed in clan chat or on the forums)
FREQUENT activity on the forums- you should be in your appropriate clan's forum group and have checked in at the membership check- in discussion.
Actively donating and requesting- no ratios required, but donate and request troops as often as possible.
BENEFITS OF JOINING
Joining our Family also offers several considerable benefits for Forum players.
1. No more hassle in your clan if you're leaving to participate in Forum Elite or other forum events! We not only allow but ENCOURAGE our members to participate in Forum- Held events like Forum Elite and Forum Donators!
2. Ready for a bonding experience? Meet familiar forumers and new friends alike in the family and during the monthly- mix up!
3. No more hoppers, flamers, or immature kids! Our zero- tolerance policy and forum- only acceptance helps eliminate untrustworthy or immature players.
4. Is it time for you to be co- leader? The power circle system used throughout the family allows virtually everyone in a clan to be elder and co- leader.
WHY WE ARE RIGHT FOR YOU
We may not be. Our experience is unique- but it may not be your style. We will try our best to offer and maintain a unique, immersive, and active clan family with no lack of events or in-family challenges. However, this hyped- up activity may make some people feel uncomfortable, but we want to provide the best forum-clash experience possible. In the future we may look into creating less- active clans to adapt to what other forumers may want, but for now we will, and continue to be, and active, fun- filled family.
OUR CLANS
Our entire family will be comprised of 4 clans, with a 5
th clan for forum- wannabes (Forum Grunts) currently under consideration. Each of our clans will be listed below, with their rules, requirements, and clan wars policies listed under them. In addition to having all of our members in- game also being active on the forums, each clan in the family has its own forum group to keep track of members and coordinate within the clan. A link to each clan's group can be found under their name and motto.
We have a strict zero tolerance policy for immaturity, flaming, or insulting both in- game and on the forums. If this behavior is witnessed either in- game or on the forums, you are liable to be kicked and permanently banned from not only the clan you are in, but the entire family. Being part of the community requires accepting others and knowing how to behave in a way that is acceptable- and as such we will not tolerate immature or rude behavior towards anyone.
Clans only compete in clan wars and are only considered viable for family events if they maintain or exceed the MST (Membership Standard Total). The current MST as set by alliance leadership is a base of 30 members.
THE FEEDER SYSTEM
Rising, Bound, and Striking are part of a three clan feeder system. Forum Rising trains and teaches new players up to level 50, where they graduate to Forum Bound, which prepares members for a more hardcore, active, and event- filled gaming experience in Forum Striking, to which players graduate after they are level 70+. Through the feeder system, players are introduced clan by clan to new levels of activity, gameplay, and events, as participation requirements for events like clan wars and pushes change to require all members to join in.

FORUM BOUND:
Bound together, fight together!
FORUM GROUP:
http://forum.supercell.net/group.php?groupid=1914
The very first clan in the family, Forum Bound is the ‘flagship’ clan of the Forum Alliance family. We are a clan for everyone level 50 and up- the newly- made town hall seven, or a maxed out TH 10 who just wants to hang around. We offer an active, immersive, and slightly hardcore gaming experience, as we are the feeder clan to Forum Striking. We do require activity in clan wars, but do not have wars often. We have a minimum donation requirement of 100, as well knowledge of the password: Clashers of all kinds are welcome! Our 100 donation base requirement is a breeze, as getting your way into the power circle is easy, with a 200 donation requirement. All members can easily earn elder or co- leader, creating a sense of equality within the clan.
CLAN REQUIREMENTS
Level 50+
2500 Friend in Need acheivement
(Members graduating from Rising are given precedence over applicants)
CLAN RULES
1. AT LEAST 100 donations per season.
2. Must be active in chat.
CLAN WARS POLICY
We require participation in clan wars, as we do with pushes and farming events. Members who are waiting in Bound until Soaring is created are exempt from mandatory participation.
Clan wars are held semi- weekly, but are not on a regular basis.
FORUM RISING:
Taught to rise, trained to succeed.
FORUM GROUP:
http://forum.supercell.net/group.php?groupid=1904
Forum Rising is for the new players! The rising stars get their very own Rising clan! For Town Hall 6 and below, or those farming below 800 trophies, Rising is great to get advice and help from experienced players if you're just starting out in the game! Our Leadership complement of 7 elders, 2 co- leaders and 1 leader is switched out every season so that you're never bored. Rising isn't intended to be a permanent residence, but a place for you to get advice on your base and tips on playing the game until you're ready to move on! After you have passed town hall seven or want to climb past 900 trophies, you'll be asked to move to Forum Bound. (Please note that we are
considering switching a TH limit to an XP level limit- XP is a more accurate judge of experience and readiness in- game, and so it is a more effective option.)
REQUIREMENTS
1. Must be TH7 or BELOW
OR
Must be below 900 tropies.
CLAN RULES
1. Try to request and donate frequently.
2. Must be relatively active in chat. Either learn from others or give advice to others.
CLAN WARS POLICY
As Rising is a learning clan, we do not require participation in clan wars. We hold clan wars once every trophy season, as a learning experience to introduce our members to clan wars and help them get experienced and talented.
FORUM STRIKING:
Strike harder, faster, be the leading light!
FORUM GROUP:
http://forum.supercell.net/group.php?groupid=1916
This clan is the backbone of the family. Compromised of hardcore and high- level players, Striking offers weekly pushing and farming events alike, and competes routinely in clan wars. Participation in pushes, farming events, and clan wars is mandatory. Striking holds wars several times a week (Alternating 2 wars a week then 3 wars in a week), and takes breaks from wars to hold trophy push and other competitions!
CLAN REQUIREMENTS
Must be level 70 or higher
Must have level 5 archers or higher
Must have at least 30 stars in War Hero
Must have a reasonable Friend In Need statistic.
CLAN RULES
1. Must be active.
2. Must participate in clan wars and clan/inter- clan events.
CLAN WARS POLICY
Striking routinely and regularly participates in clan wars. Wars are held 2 times per week, and participation in wars is mandatory. (NOTE: Striking does not yet meet the MST, and so is not currently holding clan wars)
FORUM SOARING:
Soar high, fly calm, lay back in the breeze.
Soaring offers an Open- House experience for members who want to visit the Family, as well as more of a laid- back experience compared to Bound, Rising, or Striking. Participation in ANY event is optional, including clan wars, and there is no set donation requirement. If you're looking for less of an active, immersive experience, Soaring offers a relaxed but supportive clan atmosphere that still offers the ability to participate in Alliance events like donate competitions and the Monthly Mix- Up.
CLAN RULES
1. Must be active in chat.
LEADERSHIP AND ELDER
We don’t want to make anyone feel left out. That’s why we aren’t going to be excluding anyone from the positions of elder or co- leader either. However, there is one variable in this situation, and that is trust. While the family will use a circulating system of co- leader and elder, you must reach a point where you have proven yourself to be included in this circle.
THE CIRCLE:
The alliance depends on a rotating power circle to chose co- leaders and elders for each new trophy season. Group co- leaders and elders are re-picked at the start of each season, according to the power circle. New leaders and elders are chosen based on a list, where members are selected in descending order. By the time that the members on the list has run out, all of the members in the circle should have gotten at least one term each as elder and co- leader.
REQUIREMENTS:
In order to be part of the power circle, you need to fill requirements that prove to your clan and to the Alliance that you can be trusted with positions such as co- leader or elder. It’s not that we inherently don’t trust people, but it is the unfortunate fact that we play a game where people will often abuse the power they are trusted with. You must complete the following requirements to be part of the power circle:
1. Be in the clan (Or the family) for at least one trophy season.
2. Have had no recent incidents in- game or on the forums.
3. Freely and willingly donating troops, and donating what is requested. (No required limit of donations- Based off of a combination of all factors)
4. Loyal and true to the clan and kind as well as considerate to all members.
5. Active regularly in chat, good discussion starter and drama- control type of member.
FORUM LEADERSHIP:
In addition to having leadership in- game, we also rely on the same system of leadership for the forums. The alliance’s governing body, the Alliance Leadership Council (ALC) is made up of:
