If you would like to join, I will permit you to apply to the clan via Gaia. Before anyone is invited to join, I conduct a short interview. I will post the questions here, there are ten in all; do not respond to the questions in this thread, send me a PM with your answers. Anyone too stupid to follow these simple instructions will be immediately rejected; if you can not pay attention for a few sentences, then we want nothing to do with you.
First, a few notes: we have no level requirements, class requirements, or requirement that you make a new character or account. Although seeing someone with "LN_" or "_LN" in their name would make identifying other clan members easy, we feel that it does not inspire the best sense of community; in addition, anyone can write those letters in their name and pretend to be one of us.
As such, we maintain a memberlist on our website with the members & their accounts listed. If you want to ask someone about what it is like in its inaugural week, then ask *Nebelstern; he was the first person I recruited.
In addition to the website, we have forums that do not allow anyone to post until the admin (me) activates the account. As such, our forums are spam and troll free, and entirely private, hidden from public view. Joining the forums is not a requirement but a privaledge should you wish to exercise it.
A rundown of the rules and other relevant information can be found on our website, which is linked at the bottom of this post, and is currently under constuction. It should be all done by Tuesday evening, August 16, 2005.
The following are 10 interview questions that I ask every prospective clan member; if you wish to apply, then tell me a little bit about yourself and answer the questions. Make sure to include your account name in the PM. Again, I remind you: do not respond to these questions in this thread.
If you have any questions about the clan, feel free to ask away here or PM me. Any inquiries regarding the questions should only be directed towards me via PM, as they could potentially affect other applicant's answers. Anyone answering interview questions or asking about interview questions in a manner which might affect the test will be requested to be removed, and the offending whelp will be disqualified from entering the clan for a period of no less than a month, at which point they may reapply. Okay, having said that, here goes:

The Interview:
1. How long have you been playing Diablo II?
2. How did you first discover Diablo II?
3. What is the first character class you ever played as in Diablo II (Classic or Expansion, whichever you played first), and why did you choose that character class?
4. What is your favorite character class, and why?
5. What is your least favorite character class, and why?
6. Let us say that you find a Unique Item completely useless to the character you find it with (say, a Claw-class weapon while playing as an Amazon). What do you do with that item?
7. You are Level 9, and a Level 20 character goes hostile against you while you are on the Blood Moor. What do you do?
8. Similar situation, but with a twist; you are Level 50, and in a room with another Level 50 and a Level 20. The Level 50 goes hostile against the Level 20 and PKs him. When the Level 20 goes to retrieve his corpse, the Level 50 NKs him over and over again. What do you do?
9. What features would you like to see in Diablo III?
10. Someone asks you to help him dupe an item. What do you do?

That is the interview, in its entirety. Some of the questions seem very general or broad; this is entirely intentional. We aim to figure out what sort of person the interviewee is; the answers that one comes up with for these questions will paint a good picture of the sort of person and player you are.
Our only requirement at the moment is that you are a cool person. No level requirements, none of that "Hey Level 15 get out of my clan b***h" bull, either.
There is an established ranking system, under which all members will fall. Higher level members, having been around for longer, will generally treat the newer members with respect. We do not tolerate or condone abuse of the power we afford to higher ranking members, nor would we do anything especially mean (or even a little mean) to you without you realli deserved it.
Well, those are the basics on my clan.
