Clans and Organizations

The point was to have a clan ranking system and a place for clans to practice and play on competition class servers (where game mechanix are the same creating a level playing field). The object was not to make money, but to have the servers pay for themselves, and to compensate someone for the upkeep and maintenance of the servers.This really was just meant as an idea for clans that wished to participate in a competitive, organized, fashion (similar to many freemium games i.e. clash of clans) where clan wars would be easy to schedule and rankings would be in place for "bragging rights". With the advent of places like Discord (and others) and the organizing of large scale clan wars (western agario tourny...and others), I know that it's easier than ever to get a clan up and running, and that clans want to participate in large scale competition (the main difference being that instead of occasional huge and hard to manage competitions, it would be whenever a clan wanted to war with another clan in it's competitive class), and this has all happened since the original thread post.

Servers pay for themselves with ads

not sure about that, you could be right. I'm also talking about compensation for someones time, as it would be a job (sorta )

According to lkd they do

I feel like it's a good idea but like Sky said, not everyone has money to spend. I myself do though and it would definitely make things more interesting and competitive. Implementing the idea with this server would be pretty cool and I wouldn't really mind, it would be a nice addition.

not every one does have money, but the world aint fair. if you want something that requires money, then you figure out a way to get it. not everything can be free either. it would have to be up to the clans to cover the rent on their own servers, as advertising might not work, or it might...I have no idea, I've never attempted to set up/run anything like that or had to run the numbers involved with making an idea like this feasible. I'm glad that theres an interest i the idea anyway (finally) as I think theres something there that might be good.

The world may not be fair, thats why the staff pitch in with there own money. However if anything staff are making money.

Yep dood it is happening all over but i think that will be good idea. Not sure that peoples will spend money. We will see what happens..

This idea seems to not get thrown around enough, even though I'd assume it would make tons of money, and provide an honest place for clans to compete in various styles of gameplay in an organised fashion. I for one would shell out a buck or two And actually join a clan for this sort of competition (heck I might even work on my teaming and splitrunning techniques for that   ). Would this be something that you'd be interested in? Would this ruin the game or make it better? Post away and let us know what YOU think! thanx

Ya. What runSPOTrun said. I totally agree. There isn't enough thunder with the clans and it could be just the thing. Every body likes to have their own thunder. Make it like a (non violent) UFC. Using levels and win ratings,  team clans can be matched for experience and play time and wins.  Winners would get recognition from  forum admin and get (virtual trophies) posted in a trophy room too always be there. High lights would be in the Agarioforums news paper on line. Every one would want to join a clan but you definitely have to be a member of the forum to join a clan.

I would buy and pay for a clan skin . it's like buying a team shirt on a baseball team or soccer team. No problem. 


Bring the thunder and they will come .... TM Soloist 

or build  it and they will come. ... some infamous guy named Kevin 

or like the You Tube guy said " just do it!! Do it! Just do it! lol ...love that video. So motivational  lol

servers are easy to set up. this could be done through discord as @Sora is not willing to promote this type of activity. It would require a moderator to monitor the payments made to an account and authorizing access....other than that its a simple ranking system
