Have to give credit where its due. All information was gather from that link. I turns out that any clan that is registered with the darkfall forums can invite members into beta. All you have to do is send an email to a certain address in a certain format and your automatically invited. Seems the devs decided to automate the process.

Here is the format:

its betaadmin@aventurine.gr is the email to send it.

Subject: <clan>

Body:

forum nick, email
forum nick, email
forum nick, email
forum nick, email


no more no less.

The Dev's did the clan recruiting around DEC 20'th, so the time to register is past. But I am seeing reports of people that are creating clans, then contacting the moderators of the Darkfall site to have their clan loaded into the groups.

Also some shady people are harvesting email addresses from listed guild leaders in the groups section of the darkfall site (probably by trying to contact them and hoping they email back) then sending fake clan recruitment email with spoofed email headers.

If you guys can confirm this, I hope you deem it worthy of a membership.

Thanks.

sorry about any confusion with the user name. I've had this account for a couple years but never really used it much.

BTW it looks like the devs are catching on to this fairly quickly, I'm not sure this will work much longer :(

Defariak - I'm not trying to jack anyones work, if this is yours i did not know that. I am just sharing the information from the post that i linked in my origional message.

Your clan email must be registered and must be the email they have recorded.
Also if your clan already got clan invites it will not allow you to get anymore (weve tried heh) you can only use it as a one pop shot and only if your clan is registered and only if you have not recieved clan beta invites already.
(op- sorry for the confusion heh)

Yea, make sure that the nick/emails you provide in your email are the exact username/email you used to signup for beta.

even if this worked, this trick will probably not work anymore...

some guys got banned from the forums : http://i43.tinypic.com/2j518g3.png
so you should be cautious if you try it.
(still it's not a big problem to be banned, just recreate a new account :>)

those getting banned are not doing it right :\
People getting banned goes to show it works heh.
those who get banned are getting banned for one reason or another.
1, theyre already in beta.
2, they arent a clan leader
3, their email isnt registered pre closeout with adventurine
4, they arent doing it right
5, they are actually sending nick and email in the body instead of their id and registered email lol
6, their clan already got beta keys
it still works if you do it right.

Question on a clan invite.

Several of the guys in my clan have received invites at different times. I guess I'm wanting to make sure that those aren't "clan invites". If theys are individual invites I may give this a try.
