I was on another message board and on of their features was members who have a certain status could make a clan. Those members would be clan/crew leaders who had moderating abilities over their clan/crew thread. Its nothin really just a bit of fun, certain clans would hold events with prizes and tournaments. Just though it would be a good idea, but probably not a good idea since im not on here much anymore. Ill post the website for example, just to show what i mean.
