I see many clans in Sirius wishing the Admiral would log in and move the jump ship.
A 3 tier system would work well.
A good set Officers is vital to your clan / team. You need to choose members that has commitment and a sense of organization. Your Co-leaders should be able to replace you in a match that you are unable to attend, so they need to be familiar with all the players. When choosing a Co-Leader team, look for players who the other members respect and listen to.

As a Clan leader you really need to support your clan or gaming team. Make sure you listen to all your members and make them feel valid. Remember, your members are likely to have a lot more experience in some games than you so take on board suggestions and tactics. Make sure that all members get a chance to lead your team from time to time. It gives them a feel for running a clan and will help them have an overall understanding of how your clan functions.

There are some easily identifiable pitfalls that a lot of clans fall into. Clans often fail due to the following:
Too many leaders – Just have you and a small set of Officers.
Inactivity – Ensure you have regular practices and matches.
In fighting between members – Remove members who cause problems immediately.
Members not feeling part of the team – Share around responsibility and listen to your team or clan.
Bad reputation in matches – Remove members who don’t listen or constantly cheat.
Poor sportsmanship – Ensure your members do not bad mouth other teams, even if your clan or team is being abused.
Immaturity of members – Avoid younger players who tend to not work as a team.
Lazy Officer – install another member if you feel you are not being supported.
No Practices – All clans or teams need practice. Practice can be as simple as making time to just play friendlies a few times a week.

Leadership
If your clan fails it is because of you. You are ultimately responsible for your clan and poor leadership will do it every time. All of the above common pitfalls that can lead to clan splits or inactivity can all be avoided by taking action when you see a situation occurring. Be a firm leader, but fair. Reward members equally and get the better players to provide tips to the less experienced members. Make sure that your clan understand that in a match they are to listen to you or your Officers at all times. The most important thing for a clan or gaming team http://forum.pirategalaxy.com/viewtopic.php?f=253&t=22691 is to be active. Active clans last as they always have a weekly match or practice.

Admiral: Full control of clan

Senior Officer: The S.O. is earned by those who have shown advanced clan leadership abilities, can solve complex issues, and show an interest in other clan members advancements. They help plan activities, and talk with the General about promoting other members. They are essentially second in command of the whole sub division, and report to the Admiral. Set up CQ Ships and Jump Ships and conquest.

Officer: He must have a descent understanding of the clan issues as well as solutions and recommendations for them. Their leadership displays are refining, and thus they have shown an interest. This position requires a general display of leadership skills. This position is also one of training ; meetings, meaning that one with this position has been newly inducted into the leadership chain, thus as your training and leadership skills develop your rank will as well.

Now I'm just a ghost pilot from the past, but i see PG wants to be More PVP so the clans have to step up...
If you want to be red and land the do it... If you get shot down then complain to the clan leaders....

I have written a good post about this as well, it's burried somewhere.
There should be options introduced in timely manner when Admiral don't login and the captain is active, and could take the admiral position.

But this is what I would call Necroposting, aka very old posts digged up.
^^ :cool:

I agree with all of it except the complaining part. If you go red... then you are consciously turning on PM and by doing so you are stating to all: " I am ready for battle " and therefore, inviting attack.
Why go red and then complain when you get podded? lol
