I've heard from a few sources that shortly after zOMG is released, we might be looking at some major Guild updates, and maybe even the Guilds being intertwined with zOMG?
Anyone have any proof about this? Any developer info? Or maybe you've heard the Rumors too?

oshit, I was sending out a few invites when I got this message "This user does not allow guild and clan invite requests".
Clan. It now includes Clan.
Let me explain where I am going with this.
Since this must have happened within the last few minutes, it means that Clans and Guild Invites are likely the same option. Which means, Clan invites just might have something to do with Guilds. :3
Anyone have any speculation on this? I'll bring you anymore information as it becomes available!

Ah, sweet.
Would the Captain's Guild include Clan's? Since the clan's are essentially Guilds with a dedicated purpose (aka, related to zOMG)?

Clans are being developed, but they are so much like guilds that they haven't gotten their own "niche" in Gaia yet. I'm not sure exactly how they will interact with zOMG or the rest of Gaia or how they may be different from guilds (but for one thing they're free, and for another thing they may or may not be able to buy subforums).

As of right now clans are exactly like guilds, near as I can tell in every way. Even when you click on the link to Clan FAQ, it takes you to Guilds FAQ. Maybe it's just taking them a bit of time to get everything up and running correctly (I hope). It made me really nervous that they were going to do away with the guilds.

IS there a difference between the two? I am a little scared. neutral

Personally I don't understand the hype over ZOMG!! that much. I have played it (on my much older and more boring account) and although we're not meant to say anything, it has done nothing to help me understand it anymore. Its not that entertaining (in my opinion) and it just confuses me.
Clan/guild should be the same thing really. It just means a group of people in a privately run area. A clan would be held within a guild but called a clan. I wish we'd get a massive guild update soon, we've only needed on for the past however many years. Hopefully fingures crossed when they do have zomgup and running for everyone we may get one... or am I dreaming?
Nah I'm sorry I sound mean, i just don't understand the zomg

So far the only real differences that I've seen is that you can only join one clan at a time, also clans are linked to the game. But otherwise they are essentially the same as a guild and yes you can buy subforums (same cost as guilds).

I've actually accepted people into this guild that only requested to join because they were part of a clan.
Does anyone think this guild should somehow merge with clans a bit? I mean maybe have a few threads on clans or even have a sub for it or the sort? I haven't checked out clans yet so I don't really know how they work.
So far, I think this was a bad move by Gaia.

I don't like it much either. Personally (except for the only being able to join one rule) I don't see why they couldn't have just used the existing guilds and then added on a "clan" sub forum that linked to the game . It doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. Most of the people who have joined my clan, I think were thinking that it was going to be like my guilds (with actual topics and discussion on paganism, etc...). While I have a sub forum for all other discussions, the focus of the clan should be zOMG. But I see people using them just like guilds.
I'd let them join, since their needs (for the moment) seem to be the same. Maybe at some point later if there is a greater need (or there starts to be an actual difference in the way they are run) we could open a separate sub forum.
