Author Topic: SL - SquareLabs  (Read 1217 times)

Yeah, I know. You're thinking; "Yay, another clan. [/sarcasm]". Well, yes. It is another clan, but you can scream profanity at it in your head all you want. But if that wasn't your first thought, then it seems the community has changed since I last checked this forum. Either way...


Q: What is this?
A: A little history, though this was never a clan. SquareLabs all started a long time ago in Rkynick's (or Rky as he is now called) server. I had created a small structure with various contraptions inside of it and Rky came up with the name SquareLabs. Since then, I've used the name. Over time, SquareLabs migrated into Slezak's server for three versions. 2, 3 and 4. Now, 5.0 is created (and unfinished) sitting in my server. I've lost all previous versions but I'm fairly certain Slezak has 2 and 4, not sure about 3.

Q: Why are you doing this? Seriously.
A: Well for one, it's something to do in Blockland, two; All I've got to call my own is a bunch of builds. No, I'm not begging for people to make me add-ons, that's entirely up to them and that takes an extremely long time anyway. Three; Most futuristic clans I've seen are based on space stations and space ships. This focuses more on land-based structures like SquareLabs 5.0. (Yes, ships are welcome.)

R: You lie, you're begging for add-ons.
A: If I were begging for add-ons, I'd go into the request forum and beg there. I'd easily get flamed there too, either way, you'll end up doing it here too but I care not.

Q: You know that this won't work, right?
A: Uh. No, I don't know if it will succeed or burn like the last clan I tried to start up (when I was a fricken noob and we were in the triple digits...)

Current Members
Member(s) Amount: 2
Squarehead (ID: 748) [Founder and Leader]

Positions and Recruitment
Like any standard clan, there are positions and requirements.

Builder: Obviously you build something fairly nice and it might get you into the clan for building purposes.
Eventer: Take some stuff, event it and if it's good enough (unlike my crap), it gets you in. Simple, right?
DMer(what?!): Yes, we have DMers too for the sake of entertainment. Good times, just prove you're worth fighting.
Scripter: I can't do it but you might be able to, just make something out of some coding and I can review what you've made.

Another position will open up when more members join. For now, these four will do.
Blacklist

Nobody... yet.

Reply, criticize, flame(via PMs). Have fun.
Members always welcome, you know what to do.

A little constrictive criticism people will "flame you " for not having enough members so it is a good idea to get more members beforehand

It's not -that- serious of a clan. I have possible potentials and all but I'd rather try this approach just for the hell of it.

So basically this is a futurestic clan but for futuristic labs and such? I'm thinking of apping.

Yes. It's not based on space ships or space stations at all, however they are welcome. I like to focus more on laboratories and such rather than the awesome space ships people make nowadays.

Doublepostshenanigans.

Added a photoshop'd title to the post. Feedback on it would be nice, I understand it's not the greatest but it's something.

UngaHill is incorperated with this clan :D

Ass

I've started many clans with no members. It only takes a nice topic and a good server to get a few to join.

Good luck with it. Only complaint is the logo is almost impossible to see.

Updated the color of the title, if it's bad, let me know and I'll change it again.

Yeah okay, its not the green; its the fact its way too light. Adding another light color doesn't help. It needs better contrast, cyan or mint its still too bright to see against the forum.

If you don't want to change the contrast, try a dark green or dark grey shadow or outline.

Updated the title again. This one should be much better than before.

Ahhh yes that is more like it. Good job.
