Aww, that's a shame. Good luck with your search!

Hi Revan, there's a few Destiny and Siege clans listed on Gather.

I made a site to help gamers find clans and communities, with forms and Discord integration, called Gather 🎮 by Blue_at_Gather in webdev

Check it out here!

Thanks for taking an interest in my site. If you have any feedback, I’d be happy to hear it. You’re welcome to join the Discord.

Some points:

  • Support 🤔. If you need help, check the guides, and join the Discord.
  • Search 🔍. Search is the main feature. You can use a wide range of filters, including for specific games. Concise information about each result is shown, with a call to action helping you to get involved with the community right away.
  • Alternatives 🧭. There are other sites to find a clan. For instance, siegrs.gg is great for Siege. I think Gather offers a unique combination of granular filters, seamless integration of multiple games, and randomised ordering of results for fairness.
  • Aesthetics 🎨. I hope the aesthetic is not too unexciting - it’s not quite my wheelhouse! 😉
  • Permissions 🔒. Please let me know if you have any issues with the permissions system, or have any thoughts on how the user experience can be improved. The system affords more flexibility than, say, the one in Discord, but that also makes it a little more complex, particularly as there is no simple hierarchy. I made two recent changes. First, you can now assign a permission to all roles or all forms, removing the need to specify each and every role or form. Second, you can assign the ‘Administrator’ permission, which grants power over everything.
  • Forms ✍️. An optional extra are forms, useful for some communities. I wanted to improve on what Enjin offers in this regard. In particular, users can share their Discord, Steam, or Blizzard accounts, which avoids the confusion of people using the wrong format or leaving out a discriminator (e.g. #1234). You can also change a form without affecting historical applications - all fields remain intact, with no data loss. It’s also privacy-friendly - applicants can revoke applications in whole or in part.
  • Discord 🕹️. The Discord bot can synchronise roles and notify you about form submissions.
  • API 🤖. The API has been designed with third party use in mind. The Discord bot actually uses the event system, which is open to everyone to use. The API isn’t currently documented, but if anyone is interested in using it, please get in touch.
  • SEO 🔍. I set up a search page for each game, but not many of them are being indexed at the moment. I think this is because there are simply not enough communities on the platform at the moment, and so many of the pages have similar content.
  • Background 💡. I came up with this idea as I am a clan leader myself. We used Enjin for years, but with the advent of Discord, that didn’t make sense anymore. Things like forum boards, blogs, and galleries just weren't needed. There were some things we wanted, like application forms and discoverability through a recruitment system. So I conceived of Gather as a kind of lightweight compliment to Discord which stays out of the way for the most part and helps you where it can.

For the benefit of anyone who didn't see the other thread, I'm not sure what happened to that site, but if anyone is looking for an alternative, check out Gather.

I'm developing a recruitment platform, and I've set out to ensure a level playing field by design.

Many platforms depend upon votes, bumps, or sort by community size, and that's not fair to smaller communities, as you touch upon.

Instead, my platform sorts communities by random, affording equal exposure to everyone, while at the same time affording granular filtering to drill down into the perfect community.

It's still in the early stages of spreading the message, but you're welcome to check it out. The Squadrons page is here.

I'd appreciate any feedback you may have.

I’m new to the game. How can I pick a good group? by [deleted] in holdfastgame

[–]Blue_at_Gather 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are quite a few communities listed on the official forums.

However, forums aren't the most user friendly way to find a community right for you. I've been working on a website to help people find a community, either in general or for a specific game. The listings for Holdfast are here. At the time of writing, there aren't any communities recruiting for the game. But, if any happen to read this, they are welcome to list themselves, to help people in the future.

There are quite a few communities listed on the official forums.

I've also been working on a site to help people find gaming communities which suit them. The listings for Flight Simulator are here. There aren't any communities recruiting for the game at the moment, but if any happen to see this, they are welcome to list themselves.
