~The Phantom Clan ~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
About Us: The Phantom Clan has been around for over 5 years. We started up on a site called Gaia Online. I, Zeeden, as a leader have been running it for a very long time. I never expected my clan to grow to this game and we have made a lot of new friends on the way. The clan has people from the beginning who have joined this game just to get the game and guild running on Spiral Knights. I have been playing Spiral Knights since early beta, which hints the reason why my in-game name is Zeedenn, and not Zeeden. But as the guild started on December 3rd of 2014 on Spiral Knights, we had very few players from the old Gaia Online guild that started to come over to Spiral Knights. We've pretty much started from scratch. But with the help of the officers, we got the guild up and running by recruiting players. This is where the fun part happened - we did the same as we did for Gaia Online and made a Skype group for the guild on Spiral Knights and all of the people flowed in. So now, as a Spiral Knights guild, we are one of the only guilds that offer a Skype clan call that is frequently active (whenever I'm online, at least). To sum it up, The Phantom Clan has been around for some time.

*Respecting your Clan leader and fellow clan-mates
- The clan leader Zeeden and those he has chosen to impliment as chat moderators must be shown the up-most respect from all members at all times with no exeptions or excuses.
- Respect between the clan members is also a vitual mechanic of a thriveing clan and will ensure a positive enviroment
- Putting Respect above ones own emotions and wants in situations of personal interest is a good exercise of dicipline and self-control. An attribute that is of great importace.
- Repecting ones personal space and preferences (Do not bother a Clan member if they do not wish to be bothered, do not attempt to make Fellow clan members purposefully uneasy. Do not persue a Clan memeber if it is not wanted.)
