I am asking this basic question as I've been in a few, but what makes them tick. I would appreciate your responses.

Doing something in groups and competing together are motivations I can see.

Then it is quite nice to be asked to join a clan. So put down vanity as well.

Well, Ponderable, that is exactly what I am trying to do. I have even invited Seitse as I think he would be great, and he is under-rated by so many people - including me. I think we could start a great little forum only club and say what we mean, and more importantly mean what we say. That is why somebody like Seitse would be great but I am on his ignore list.

Different clans and groups have different purposes.

If you like to make naughty pictures out of punctuation marks, there is a clan for that.

If you like to pretend you are black for the purpose of denigrating an entire race, there is a clan for that.

If you like to harrass and bully newcomers and decent posters off of the site, there is also a clan for that.

A member of your clan told me that he had one of these on his front lawn. I just wanted you to know.

There's even a clan for friendly, ethical and fierce competition in an atmosphere of respectful collegiality. Watch for the next opening in IVV and apply, if you qualify.

Hi, Coquette. Summer of 2008 my Vino application was denied. So I lost interest. My 2009 Dance Card if filled but maybe I'll re-apply in 2010.

Seems member chemistry must play a definite role.

... as well as the 'tone' of the clan (or club) which is established and maintained by its leader.

What kind of a racist prick would say that?
Perhaps he was joking. 😕
