What the Heck's a Co-Leader?

Co-Leaders are Elders on steroids.
Co-Leaders, the horse that makes the glue that keeps the clan together. Wait, that's a terrible analogy. Co-Leaders, the TV in the mini-van that keeps the kids happy. Closer. Co-Leaders, the Maginot Line that actually works. OK, let's go with that.

Co-Leaders are just as important as clan leaders and serve many purposes. They are the glue, the pacifiers and the last line of defense. Co-Leaders aren't clones of each other, in fact, I believe it's better to have different opinions and well thought discussions as long as they end up agreeing with my line of thought. I am very reasonable that way. Seriously though, Co-Leaders are Elders on steroids.

What's that you ask? How do I become a Co-Leader?? First, easy big fella! Slow down and familiarize yourself with our elder qualifications. Once you have caught up, it's time to find out what it takes to be a Co-Leader.

  1. Active - When I say active, I mean embarrassingly, on more than one should be, having trouble holding down a job, failing at school, angry spouse active...minus all the bad stuff.
  2. Donations - Yeah, it goes without saying that a Co-Leader will try to give away their house if a member asked for it in their donation request.

    War Leader - This is probably the biggest part of the Co-Leaders's job, they need to be able to help orchestrate the clan wars. This means posting claims on groupme, helping find targets for members, helping enforce clan war rules, being there to assist with war strategies and always remaining positive. An effective war leader doesn't act negative. Imagine General Patton throwing his hands up in the air and screaming like a baby at the first sound of a gunshot. It's courage that defines leaders--not negativity. 
  4. Elder + - It should go without saying that a Co-Leader is everything an elder is and then some. 
  5. Don't Ask - If you are begging for Co-Leader, you won't get it. Go out there and earn your wings. Man/Woman up and do what you need to do.
If you feel that Co-Leader is right for you, put on your elder hat first and then prove yourself to be Co-Material. 

If you aren't a Co-Leader or an Elder, no worries, being a member is an honor in itself. If you are looking for an easy Co or Elder, Battle Fresh isn't that clan. We accept the best and promote those looking to lead.
