The new and improved Clubs have now been released. There have been lots of improvements and changes and a ton of new features have been added. Here are some of the changes:

Club Shops now have all of the same functions of User Shops. This means that you can use Check Price and the Auto Price (if you have the Giftbox). You can make it only show items that are not priced and you have the option to price items at 25%, 50% or 75% off the lowest price on the Shop Search.

Club Gallery has been added as a new feature. Any items that are donated automatically go to the 'Club Items' for you to price in your shop. If you do not want to sell them, you can move them to the Club Gallery for display or storage.

Club Newsletters are also a new feature. You can send a Maramail once every 24 hours to ALL of your active club members! This is a great way to keep your members involved in the Club and all of its events.

Club Chat now allows you to tag club members with the @username tag. Club leaders also have the option now to allow or disable club members from double posting in the club chat.

Club Points is a brand new optional feature where your club members can earn club points from being active in the club. You have total control over how many Club Points are earned and from what. Club Points can be earned every time a member posts on the Club Chat, donates items or MP, votes in the poll, takes part in the club quiz, etc. You can also set Club Point requirements for each Club Rank so that club members will increase their Club Rank automatically when they reach the Club Points amounts that you set.

Club Logs now show for Club Leaders and club members with this permission to see when a player joins, leaves or when their Club Rank is automatically increased. This should help you to ban club members who join, take part in events and leave or congratulate and/or reward club members who earn enough club points to increase their rank.

Club Swaps are another new feature. You can move any Crystals, Diamonds, Photos or Plates donated to your club to the Club Swaps and members can swap any item like for like. For example, they can swap any Photo in their Inventory for any Photo in the Club Photo Swap. There is also a setting for any of these items donated to the club to automatically go into Club Swaps instead of Club Items.

Club Raffles are another new feature. Any item not priced in the Club Shop or Gallery can be selected as a prize for the Club Raffle. Club Raffles are a way for you to sell between 1 and 10 raffle tickets to each Club Member for up to 99,999MP per ticket. This MP will go into the Club Till. You can also set how you would like the Club Raffle to automatically finish and select a winner - when a certain amount of tickets are sold (maximum of 999 tickets) or after a certain time limit. If the Club Raffle is free to enter, members can only have one raffle ticket each.

This is the first round of updates for Clubs and there will be many more features added in the near future. Remember, if you have any suggestions you should let us know at the Editorial.
