If you are a simply a "regular" on our servers or a friendly, mature, reliable person that is interested in helping the MiGHTY [TiC] Clan, you are more than welcome to play on our servers anytime and can help us by spreading the word about the [TiC] Clan's web site and  [TiC]Clan Servers to your friends.

The [TiC] Clan is ran solely by volunteers. If you are a still only a Screened Applicant, then please first spend your time learning the Rules and Clan Structure and then take the [TiC-G] Guest Quiz, rather than volunteering for a clan job at this stage, as you will need to learn our rules and clan structure before helping with the clan. If you are a [TiC-G] Guest or [TiC] Member of the MiGHTY [TiC] Clan, then PLEASE give something back to our Club routinely in some way each week. Note you have to be at least a "[TiC-G] Guest" before you can hold a "clan job" in the Clan. You have to be at least a [TiC] "Member" before you can become a "Recruiter".  Below is a list of some of the many ways the [TiC] Clan always needs help.

THANK YOU FOR HELPING. ;-)

 

HOW TO VOLUNTEER:
 

Volunteer by posting a message on the [TiC] Private Forum telling everyone WHAT and WHEN and HOW LONG you want to help with it. Simply post a message on the [TiC] Private Forum with the heading saying:

""I want to help the [TiC] Clan with --INSERT WHAT YOU WILL HELP WITH--"".

Please include your game name and email and list your talents and plans and amount of time you want to donate. Indicate if it is just for one EVENT or a repetitive/weekly thing. Indicate if you think you can RUN (host) it or just HELP (co-host) with it.

The Council Members and Department Managers read the Message Board every day, and will promptly contact you and put you to work. If you want to be an "Instructor", "Event Coordinator", or "Recruiter",  the Department Manager for the [TiC] Training Department will contact after you post. Council Members should be putting new guys to work, by talking to them, finding their talents and then directing new people in the direction of a Department Manager. Department Managers should also be helping to put new guys to work, by advertising openings,  talking to them, finding their talents and assigning them a job out right or as someone's assistant until they learn enough to do a "clan job". Remember, hard workers progress into and up thru our Club quicker. ;-)
