REQUIREMENTS TO JOIN THE IRON VANGUARDS
As a young growing clan we have no requirements for you to join us except a wish to meet new friends and enjoy clan life. We have no xp or combat level requirements. We understand that many players have "mains " and that these other accounts maybe in another clan. But please be respectful of both clans & should you be an admin or above in another clan please dont ask to join us on your other account.


Please make sure you have added me Scarlet Imps to your friends list so I can pm you if necessary.

Occasionally we do a clan activity clean up, this removes anyone who hasn’t been active or gained much xp since they joined the clan.

Ranking as a Vanguard
•~~~~~~~•



Here in the Vanguards we are attempting to create a unique ranking system that is accessible to all members, that does not rely on you grinding out huge amounts of weekly xp, attending events or recruiting instead of just playing the game you enjoy
.
We acknowledge that we do not all play in the same way, some are able to play 24/7 others only maybe a precious hour a week, either way we feel it fair to create a ranking system that allows you all to achieve some rank if you so desire. Once again not all of us wish to have the burden of responsibility & sit happily just as a clan mate & that is just fine as well.

So how to achieve your rankings:

Ranking as a Vanguard - We aim to be open, fair & have a realistic time frame, once you have consistently proven that you are capable of representing your clan in a mature & motivated way.
If you wish to gain rank above General then you will have to show consistent work within the clan, offer to host & attend events, loyalty, helping the clan to grow & general positive attitudes within the clan, be active in clan chat & helpful. Sometimes real life takes over & you become inactive for a while. If this happens, we may have to lower your rank until your return but cannot promise there will be a vacant spot to reinstate you as soon as you return.
Although there are no set requirements to gain Admin or above these are usually members who have worked hard & shown they have the qualities I look for in my Leadership Team. These ranks are limited so although you may meet all we are looking for you may not be offered rank as those positions may be already filled. The final part will be a vote from the current Leadership Team.

If you would like to be considered to become part of the leadership for your clan please pm Scarlet Imps.
Ranks of Admin & above will be considered “Leadership Roles “& will be offered to trusted clan members who have shown their interest in becoming role models within the clan, wish to take on some responsibility within the clan, taking on one or more of the clan job areas & are motivated to help the clan grow & have demonstrated to me their respect , trust & loyalty for all leaders & clan members alike. To show an example & to be fair to those waiting to gain rank.
As we grow, we hope to have clan ambassadors leading areas within the clan. i.e. Mini games, bossing, skilling, mentoring & running clan challenges.

**Admin== small council
**Organiser to Deps == leadership rank
** Combined ==grand council
Each member of small council & leadership will carry 1 vote each. Our founding members also retain their voting rights.

ADMIN. ( there will only ever be a max of 10 admins at any time ) So to be fair to those hoping for ranks any admin not able to fulfil their requirements will be ranked back to general. To be loyal & trustworthy, active in clan chat & helping to keep the chat "clean chat" . at all times. To attend ALL clan events if you are logged in, this includes clan meetings, random events if you have the required levels to join in. Should you lose members holding an admin rank we will not kick you from the clan but we will have to lower your rank to general.

Overseer and Deputy Owner

These are the most trusted ranks positions offered to those clan mates who have shown outstanding dedication & loyalty to both Scarlet & the clan. My deputies are an extension of myself. They have my best interests & the clan & as such are not only great clan deputies but also great personal friends of mine.
Over an extended time they have proven themselves to be team players in every sense putting the clan before their own personal gain.



As Clan Leader I reserve the right to occasionally appoint a new clan mate to an instantly high ranked position, please do not view this as favouritism but it is done with the intention of bettering the clan in some way. If this happens & it bothers you then please talk to me & I will be happy to explain my reasons to you.

CLAN RULES
•~~~~~~~•

All the way from the clan owner, down to our recruits, there are no exceptions to these rules. Regardless of what you have done for the clan, no one exists above the standard we have set for ourselves.

1/ We uphold all Jagex Rules.

2/ Keep the clan chat drama free, we all play to enjoy some game time, not to be involved in drama.

3/ Be respectful of every member & their viewpoints. Do not discuss sensitive & potentially divisive issues in clan chat such as politics, religion, racism, illegal topics, drugs, adult content, etc. as we may have younger clan mates, use your pm if you really feel the need to discuss these topics. Being asked to change any subject means STOP.

4/ NO bragging, while we celebrate your achievements remember we are all equal, we just all choose the play the game in different ways.

5/ Remember behind every pixel character is a real person sitting at their keyboard, be aware how your words & actions affect others, along with reflecting on the clan as a whole, before sharing them in Public Clan Chat.

6/ If your game behavior is not representing the clan in a good way, leadership may hold a vote resulting in a warning or asking you to leave the clan.

7/ Please understand that not everything in the clan chat is about you, different players have different interests & while we aim to keep the chat general & if you don't want to be a part of a certain conversation then just leave chat for a few minutes.

8/ No botting, you are welcome to sit in clan chat & not be active, but when messaged by Leadership clan mate please answer, otherwise we will track you down in game, message you once in public chat if you still do not answer we will assume you are botting & will kick you immediately. We hold clan stat sheets on all clan members showing xp gain & hours played etc.

. 9/ No account sharing. While this is breaking a Jagex rule it is also very dishonest letting your clanmates think they are talking to the same person when in effect it is different people playing.

10/ Remember to be patient we all don’t find the same things easy or interesting so try to be helpful within the clan chat at all times.

11/ HAVE FUN and eat lots of chocolate.

12/ Enjoy the journey & hardships along this path we have chosen to walk

Our clan chat is kept within a "clean chat" content. No non PG innuendo will be tolerated.

Recruiting as a Vanguard
•~~~~~~~•


Our clan can only grow by recruiting new clanmates, at this time recruiting invites can only be used by admin or above so if you recruit a new friend, please ask a admin or above to come to meet you both then announce them in the clan chat so we can all say hello.

Do not assume that they know about clan life, ask if they need help to visit the citadel for the first time. Be proud to show them around. Remember you can now "use" your own cape & vex on our new clanmate. Which then gives them a instant teleport to the clan camp, & also the clan cape which after capping gives a small amount of free xp.
Please remind them to visit our forum & read our clan rules.
Any important clan notice will also be posted on the main clan page so please check there on a regular basis.
Thank you for recruiting for your clan.

Clan activities.

As we grow in number we aim to share some fun activities together, none of these will be mandatory, some will just be a random announcement asking you to join in. Others will be a planned event so you can prepare for them. Please check the notices listed on the clan vex for any upcoming planned events.

Below we will be listing some helpful hints for some of these events so that you can prepare in advance, gather any needed items etc or just keep you in the loop of how this clan runs certain mini games & events. This will be a work in progress as we grow, events require leadership & organisation so please be patient as we work on each one. If you would like to run one yourself or offer one for consideration please speak to anyone in the leadership team.
No Clan Event will be run outside of Clan Chat or Friends Chat.
We aim to run some events on a regular basis check below for some planned days activities
