Text Clan



Description of Text Clan

There are numerous clans in the country, there is no studies as to how many clans do we have here. Let us discuss what a Text Clan is. Just like Chat rooms in the internet, Text clan is a group of textmates who shares the same interest. Members share thoughts, announcements, forward quotes or send anything under the sun within the rules; each message must be sent to all the members which they call “GM” or General Message. Text clans are usually of Gay nature, I have not heard of any text clan of any interest other than having gay members or founders for gay people.

Each Text clan has different rules in terms of processing the application. For someone to be a member, an applicant should complete an application sent to him though text and he must resend the filled out form back to the person processing the application. If a person has been approved for membership, his number would be announced to the whole members through text message and each member has to welcome him.

Members ask for their friendster accounts (normally) to view the picture of a member and to find out if the person is attractive. Pictures on the profile are the only basis they would have for whatever purpose they may have in mind- be it for a date, FUBU(f**K Buddy), or for other purpose.

Clan members normally do have a GEB (Grand Eye Ball). Eye ball is a term for “meeting up”; grand eye ball is the term for meeting up of the whole members of the group, this is usually being held in a bar, disco, in a house(as a house party) or any venue the officers or members would agree. This is the event wherein they can meet the members in person.
