[last updated: 29th Sept. 2019]
Hey everyone. With Destiny 2 nearing its third year and our community of Destiny fans still going strong, we’re working to keep the clans (an optional grouping system to faciliate playing together & gaining additional in-game rewards) running to accommodate the ongoing interest. The goal of these clans is to uphold all the things Waypoint stands for, and to shoot a whole lot of aliens while doing so. Shout out to @crasstiger & @Emily for these excellent banners.
Currently we have four clans operational and open to members of the Waypoint community, the fourth being the newly opened Five Star Raidtimes which arrived after the discord community voted on a name for the title. Previously our clans would only be open to specific platforms but with the addition of cross-save allowing players to more easily move between console/PC, and our discord acting as a space to group up with each other, we’ve decided to remove that stipulation. All clans are now open to everyone, regardless of what platform you play Destiny 2 on.
The clans are as follows:
Popplio Pals [PALS] – 100/100 members (at capacity)
Red Tree Owls [RTO] – 95/100 members
Friends at the Tower [FATT] – 99/100 members
Five Star Raidtimes [5★] – 99/100 members
HOW TO JOIN:
-
If you haven’t already, we recommend you join the Waypoint discord as that is where we organize for co-operative play. Message Mo per the directions in this thread. In order to message other users you will first need to earn the “Basic” badge to be granted the necessary permissions, which comes from reaching trust level 1. This should come naturally from spending more time on the forum but you can find more details on the specifics here: https://blog.discourse.org/2018/06/understanding-discourse-trust-levels/
-
Navigate to the profile page for the clan you are interested in and then click “Join Clan on [your platform]” button to send in a request. If you are already in a clan, you must leave said clan before sending a request to one of our available clans.
-
As well as sending a request, please post a message in the thread to let as know who you are & which clan you are interesting in joining. Alternatively you can DM one of the admins on discord. Please DM either Catiline, Cado, or Emily to let us know you’re interested in playing in one of our clans.
The goal of these clans are to be inclusive fun places to experience the multiplayer content of the game, organize activities, take part in a group of like-minded players and to make playing online co-op feel safe and less daunting. The following rules of conduct are intended to promote that environment:
-
Rule 1: Bigotry, including but not limited to racist, transphobic, homophobic, misogynistic, islamophobic, anti semitic, ableist, neurotypical bias, kinkshaming, etc. speech will not be tolerated.
-
Rule 2: Threatening behavior and harassment of any kind will not be tolerated.
-
Rule 3: When joining a group or starting a group, ask people’s pronouns. Use gender neutral language (“everyone/anyone/y’all” vs. “you guys”).
-
Rule 4: Abide by the larger Forum and Discord Rules and Codes of Conduct if/when applicable.
If rules are broken, admins of clans and mods of other platforms will review the incidents and take action accordingly. The most likely outcome is that you will be removed from the guild, if not other platforms as well.
If someone is called out for breaking the rules and aren’t banned, we expect them to admit they might have been wrong, understand and listen to criticism and make an effort to do better next time. Don’t repeat mistakes and learn from the experience.
If someone is making you feel uncomfortable, please reach out to the admins. We are here to help.
