Clan/Kin Options

[MonkeyFiend]

Am still working on making a clear separation between the =SM= clan and the =SM= lotro kin.

As such have aded two links above the main page roster. The clan page will be the master landing page for general views on the website, but clicking on the kin link will update the site for info specific to the lord of the rings kin e.g. changes the roster to include all kin members, lotro related links etc.,

The news section will be shared by both the kin and the clan.

The membership criteria for clan membership is stricter than that of kin membership. The clan is FPS based and therefore controls server rentals (unlike the kin) as such clan members have a say in the gaming direction and finances of the clan overall. Essentially the kinship is a more casual sub-group of =SM= who specifically play lotro, however any kin members are welcome to apply for full clan membership. Obviously members can be in the clan, in the kin or in both.

I'll be creating forums user groups to allow kin members access to kin areas and clan members access to clan members. Colours will be clan=red, Kin=orange. If a member is both kin and clan (such as myself) they will take the clan (red) groupings.

At the moment the website area's will be in development, so clicking on links in the kinship area won't work properly for now.
