Do you know what clan is?

There are 2 kinds of clan, Open for public and Private one.
The Open for public clans accept anyone. You can just become a member without any obligation to put a name tag in front of your mafia name. You can attack anyone even your own clan members.. The admin or God Father of the clan only need high numbers of their mafia members, that’s it. It’s pretty lame, Means nothing to be in a mass add group.

But there are Private clans. You have to request to join not only that, you have to prepare with enough Attack and Defense Skill Points to enter the clan. Some strong clans require you to have at least 2000 Attack and/or Defense Points! Then you also have to wear the clan tag in front of your mafia name.. You can not be in more than one clan.. etc.. Which also means you will have to pay 15 god father points to change your name.

So, what’s so special about becoming a clan member?
The Advantages of joining a clan

- You got lots of mafia family members from your clan
- Got protections from the admin, God Father and other members of clan
- Some clans kind enough to share the loots & collections for free to make their members stronger
- You can get some info (any news) from the mailing list of your clan
- Some thinks that joining a clan is a privilege, they are proud wearing a name tag.
- Some players will think twice to attack you on fight list or hit list.
- Etc

The Dis-advantages of joining a clan

- If you’re on war with other clan, will be difficult for you to stay long in Hit List (to obtain Bullet Proof achievement) because your opponent will hunt your clan members there.
- If you are wearing a name tag, will be hard for you to add others mafia. Some people care who they add.
- Clans have their own rules that you need to follow.. For example, you can not interact with the outsiders of your clan.. you can not add more friends outside of your clan members, etc. Just like any gang, right?
- You can not attack other clans who allied with your clan. If you accidentally attack one mafia on the fight list (who wearing a tag), it can cause a war between 2 clans. It’s hard to choose your opponent on the fight list in case you worry of making your clan’s name bad or provoke a war!
- If you decide to get out of the clan (private one), be prepare with the bounty and a betrayal on your face!
- Etc

As for me, I have no intention on ever joining a clan. I believe they’re pointless. I will kill whomever I want and Allie whomever i want!

But the choice is yours, you decide your own way of game!
