READ FIRST: How to start a club!

Do you have an idea for a group or club? This is the place to start one ^_^~

BEFORE Starting a club:
- Make sure there isn't already a club in existance that is doing similar things to what YOU want to do. If you can collaborate with an owner of a club that already exists, you will end up making that club more popular and successful with your combined efforts.
- Request deletion of any clubs you have made in the past that you no longer wish to continue.
- If your club idea is too simple or not fleshed out enough, it is more likely to get rejected.
- If your idea is just a 'fan club' for something very limited (like a certain tier group for instance) it MIGHT be better to simply distribute buttons about the fan-topic in the art section instead of making a whole club about it.

How to start a club:
- PM me with your club's proposal (see form)
- create your club thread ONLY if approved. Clubs created without approval will be locked or deleted.
- Update your club thread regularly (at LEAST once a month) with events, and new members!
- only 1 club thread per user (cept admins .-.)

Ideas for clubs:
- Hold your own contests!
----- Art, video, photo, writing, graphic contests/critiques
----- Pokémon battles or tournaments
----- Other online video game get-togethers or tournaments
----- Speed run or high score contests for single player games
- Give out prizes/badges for participation
- Unite people with a unique interest!
- Make buttons and banners that people can put in their profiles or signatures
- Tell people about your club by word of mouth to make it more popular
- Advertise your club on another site or blog to get more people involved
- Give titles or ranks to people who contribute to your club!
- Share links/videos/images with each other relevant to the club theme

I updated the OP with some new information, as well as notes on how to better your chances at getting a club idea accepted.

I hope this helps you guys!

Oh also, if you haven't noticed already, Griffinheart went ahead and locked clubs that have had no activity for quite some time.
