General Information on Joinable Groups Spoiler: click to toggle A joinable group is a group which any individual member may join, but are separate from member groups. Types of Joinable Groups There are three types of joinable groups: 1. Open to all Members - This means that any user can join the group without restriction. 2. Leader Approval Required - This means that users will have to be approved by one of the group's leaders before becoming a member. 3. Invitation Required - This means that no user will be able to join without first being invited by an existing user. Joining a Group To join a joinable group, follow these steps: 1. At the top of the forum, click the Preferences button. 2. In the Profile Options menu, select Joinable Groups. 3. If there are any groups available to join, they will be displayed in the Joinable Groups table. 4. If you see a group that you would like to be a member of, select Join Group or Request Approval, depending on whether leader approval is required. If the group you are trying to join is by invitation only, try contacting one of the group's leaders, which can be found by clicking View Members & Leaders in the group's column. Leaving a Joinable Group If for some reason you wish to leave a group that you previously joined, follow these steps: 1. At the top of the forum, click the Preferences button. 2. In the Profile Options menu, select Joinable Groups. 3. Locate the row of the group that you wish to leave, and select Leave Group. --- Creating Groups Any user can create a group, and creating a group is necessary for any guild or clan. Guilds get their own forums to RP in, which are currently placed in the houses forum. Examples include -The League of Darkness- and -League of Light-. Alternatively you may also create a group for RP purposes without an actual clan or guildhall. Whatever the case here are the steps required to create a joinable group. To create a group you must first write a description of what the group is about, their purpose on site. Post the following information in a new topic with the title of your group, in the Alliance forum -here- -A basic outline of your guild or group. -What their purpose is in Avalon. -Types of characters it is open to. -The roles members will have in the group. -Any rankings members of the group may have. -Appearance of the clan or guildhalls (wherever the group will meet). -And any additional information. After this point an administrator or moderator will review you group information. Two staff members (at least one being an admin) must approve your group. If unapproved you will be given information regarding what needs to be changed. Once you have gained staff approval you must then have a minimum of five users posting interest in joining. Once the administration believes the group or guild to be ready for roleplaying, they will create your guild forum in the housing section.
