[u][b]Introduction[/b][/u]
[spoiler]
Thorny Guardians was founded on October 13th 2014. It began as an idea that was tossed around by Lonewolf1723 (current Xbox One Admin), Smoking kilis (Ex- Xbox 360 Admin) and myself in [url=http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/72811986/0/0]this thread[/url].
We wanted to form a clan where people can get help with the Thorn Bounty.
For this reason, Thorny Guardians is open to anybody who loves the Thorn. You don't need to have it to join. You just need to appreciate the weapon.
We at Thorny Guardians also love members who participate and socialise. We encourage you all to use the Group Wall, use the Group forum, read the announcements and post your [url=http://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Post/511412/76745407/0/0]xbox gamertags[/url] and [url=http://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Post/511412/73470224/0/0]PSN[/url] tags along with which console you are on.
We expect you to add the members already on these lists and add your [url=http://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Post/511412/77924156/0/0]Admins and Officers[/url]. Invite people to your game sessions from your Destiny Roster and join other people's sessions. Do the same with party chats. Ask to be invited to a Chatroom if you are on PS4. This is a major means of communication for the PS4 members. Its really for your own benefit and for better enjoyment of Destiny. When you need people for Nightfalls and raids, you'll be glad that you are a member of a chatroom with upto 99 people in there who are also in this clan.
Thorny Guardians values those who help others. If you help someone to defeat Xyor who is in the clan, let us know about it in the [url=http://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Post/511412/73519299/0/0]Hall of Fame[/url]. Every month the member who has helped the most will be named Member of The Month.
We are a diverse and tolerant group. We have members from all around the world. USA, Britain, Germany, Finland, Holland, UAE, Australia, Saudi Arabia to name a few. For many, English is not their first language. We all have funny accents and dialects. We should appreciate these differences and let them enhance our Destiny experience!
We have members who are of different skill levels. Be patient with members who are not great at whatever you are trying to achieve. Build each other up don't tear each other down.
We have members of different ages. We have some squeakers. If they drive you up the wall then perhaps you should join a clan for over 21s only.
We have members who are of different genders, religions, race, sexuality etc. Its fine to have a discussion about something but don't try to upset or troll people. Watch your words.
I myself am a black male, many of you won't realise that because of my British Accent but I am. I love diversity and I feel that everyone has something great to contribute to Thorny Guardians.
The main forums #Destiny can be toxic. Thorny Guardians is a place where we work together and help each other. We want to win and now and then we will win, but helping each other is the true reward.
There are times when you'll need to team up with the best players in the clan. e.g. going for Flawless Raider or playing Hard Mode VoG. You'll want experienced people who know what they are doing. But if its not that serious then have a laugh with your fellow thornies! I'd rather have the kid who keeps dying but makes me laugh or think than the hard core member who insists that the current team will never have a chance at completing the raid. Keep the morale up high. If you feel its not going to work then suggest how to make it better. Positive criticism is the best criticism.

Edited by DarkChildOfLight: 1/7/2015 6:51:41 PM[u][b]FAQs[/b][/u] [spoiler] [b]Q.[/b] I'm part of another clan. I don't want to leave them. [b]A.[/b] You can be part of as many groups as you like. You can only have one clan tag at a time. You don't have to change your clan tag to be a Thorny Guardian. [b]Q.[/b] I don't have the Thorn or the bounty for it, can I still join? [b]A.[/b] Yes. As long as you like Thorn you can join. [b]Q.[/b] Do I have to use Thorn 100% of the time? [b]A.[/b] No, that would just be silly. [b]Q.[/b] How do I get the clan tag? [b]A.[/b] Join one of the subgroups listed [url=http://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Post/511412/85572175/0/0]here[/url]. Once you join, click 'Set as Playstation / Xbox Clan. For more help, read the mission statement on the subgroup. [b]Q.[/b] I had the clan tag now its gone? [b]A.[/b] We most likely reset the clan tags. Please check the announcements on TG for any updates. [b]Q.[/b] I clicked Set as Clan and it says Pending / Max? [b]A.[/b] Try to join another group. There is a max of 100 clan members per group. If there are no groups that you can join for your console inform an admin and a new one will be created. [b]Q.[/b] How are we going to get the trophy / achievement for finishing a raid with all members having the same clan tag? [b]A.[/b] All of the subgroups are free to join and take the tag. The admins will do their best to keep subgroups with plenty of space free. Simply ask everyone in the fireteam to join the same subgroup for the task before you finish the last boss. You can then switch tags when you are done. [b]Q.[/b] What happened to the Unconfirmed PSN list & Unconfirmed Xbox List? [b]A.[/b] Scrapped. I deleted them. It was taking up too much of my time to update lists with people who didn't really want to be part of the group. After many fruitless attempts at reminding people to post their deets, I gave up. [b]Q.[/b] I need help with Xyor / Raid. [b]A.[/b] Do not make a new thread. Use one of the threads linked [url=http://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Post/511412/74663138/0/0]here[/url]. [b]Q.[/b] I can't find anybody to play with? [b]A.[/b] [url=http://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Post/511412/83213199/0/0]Read this.[/url] [b]Q.[/b] I invite people and they just ignore me. [b]A.[/b] Everyone has things to do in Destiny in a limited amount of time. They might just be busy with something else already. I wouldn't take it too personally. [b]Q.[/b] Why am I in this chatroom? [b]A.[/b] I used to invite all new PSN members to one of the chatrooms so we could all get to know each other. Quite a few people didn't like this and left. There are also major issues with PS3 members not being able to use the chatroom. [b]Q.[/b] How do I leave the chatroom? [b]A.[/b] You have to delete it by deleting all the messages from that group on the PS4 or using the Playstation Mobile App. [b]Q.[/b] The chatroom messages are blocking my radar and annoying me, can you make it stop? [b]A.[/b] It blocks the radar for all of us. But we are able to communicate and be social so we put up with it. You can adjust your settings on the PS3 or PS4 to make messages not pop up or turn off the sound of the notification. [b]Q.[/b] How do I move up? (e.g. from 4th Infantry to 1st Infantry) [b]A.[/b] There is no 'moving up. You are placed into a group depending on when you joined Thorny Guardians. As we grow new chatrooms and subgroups are created which are numbered starting from 1 and going upwards. You can change clantag groups to go for the trophy or request to change chatrooms if some of your good friends are in another chatroom. e.g. someone you have been gaming with since before you joined Thorny Guardians. [/spoiler] If you can think of a question for the FAQ, post below.

Edited by Shadow wolf: 12/23/2014 6:46:14 AMJust out of curiosity. Can I still post any little big planet versions of destiny stuff? Like a certain version of VOG which I am half way through.
