Fantasy Gathering clubs Frequently Asked Questions

Several questions have been asked more than once and I felt like I should clear the air to any other people who have these same questions but don't have the will to ask.

Questions
How do I create a club?
What do I do after I create the club?
I want to create a club in Fantasy Gathering's category but my realm is not related to Fantasy Gathering in any way. Can I still create a club there?
I already created a club elsewhere but I want it moved to Fantasy Gathering, How?
Does my club have to be Fantasy, or can it be Science Fiction?
I noticed most of your clubs have an official homepage. Do I have to have one for my club?
Does my club have to follow Fantasy Gathering's guidelines?
What if my question isn't answered?



How do I create a club?
It's very easy! Just head to this url below:

http://dir.clubs.yahoo.com/Games/Role_Playing_Games/Club_Based/Fantasy_Gathering/index.html

And there you should see a button, without having to scroll down, saying "Create a club!". Just click that and follow the instructions and you'll have a new club running in no time.

What do I do after I create the club?
After you have fixed it up, Invite your friends. But I would suggest ONLY your friends you know. People in general don't like it when a club invite end up in their e-mail somehow. There are so many yahoo clubs that club invites are driving people crazy. If you want to be safe, I would suggest going to chat and just somehow subtly ease it in. Don't go slamming your url everywhere.

You can submit your club url at SiteOwner.com. Your url would be submitted to 6 search engines at once.

I want to create a club in Fantasy Gathering's category but my realm is not related to Fantasy Gathering in any way. Can I still create a club there?
Yes! Absolutely! There are clubs there that have nothing to do with Fantasy Gathering. For example, Realm of the Fallen and Realm of Eidolon. They are seperate realms, on their own, and in no way attached to Fantasy Gathering itself. But the owners of those 2 realms are more than happy to share their realms with members of Fantasy Gathering (but they do follow their own rules.).

If your realm is not located in Fantasy Gathering, State that on your club somewhere. However, If you do want it to be a location in Fantasy Gathering, Head to OOC Oubliette to lay your idea down. The reason I ask this is because I want to know what is happening in Fantasy Gathering. I don't like surprises. *big mean dragon face, chuckles*

I already created a club elsewhere but I want it moved to Fantasy Gathering, How?
You can try contacting Yahoo at:

http://add.yahoo.com/fast/help/us/clubs/cgi_feedback

Make sure you are logged in with your username that is founder of your club before going to this url. Then be very specific in your request. For example:

"I am the founder of *club title* (Url here) and I want it moved to the Fantasy Gathering category (url of category here)."

It will take probably a few days and sometimes even up to a week or more before your club gets moved. All you have to do is keep checking.

Does my club have to be Fantasy, or can it be Science Fiction?
No, It doesn't have to be only Fantasy. It can be Science Fiction as well. Heck, It can even be a blend of both Fantasy and Science Fiction. Let your imagination run wild.

I noticed most of your clubs have an official homepage. Do I have to have one for my club?
Absolutely not. The reason most of Fantasy Gathering's clubs have a homepage is to offer more information about the location. People are always curious and they do ask. So instead of repeating ourselves, We have nice homepages that go with the clubs. *grins* If you do want to create a homepage to go with your club, You can sign up here: http://signup.fantasygathering.com/. *chuckles* And no, You don't have to use Fantasy Gathering's homepages to create a page for your club. We just think it's a nice perk for Fantasy Gathering members.

Does my club have to follow Fantasy Gathering's guidelines?
Nope. For example, Realm of Eidolon and 2146:New York City have their own sets of guidelines. You can set your own guidelines for your club. And if you want, You can set your club by Fantasy Gathering's guidelines.

If there is a guideline you think that should be listed, Head to OOC Oubliette and lay it out there. It will be discussed to see if we should include it or not.

What if my question isn't answered?
Well then, Just mosey on over to the OOC Oubliette and ask! I, and several others, will try our best in answering any questions that were not answered here.
