I ask what sites are good for L2 and they recommend PMfun or L2 Stratics.<\/p>\n<p>Then I ask what the academy is for, for new people?\u00a0 They state it&#8217;s for clan points, that when I hit 40 and do the 2nd class changes, I get &#8220;expelled&#8221; from clan and the clan receives points. Well that comes off as a bit harsh, so I admittedly ask a leading question and ask if I would receive special buffs or something while in it. They say no. I&#8217;m not willing to let this go so I say that&#8217;s too bad there should be a perk or something (you get extra exp on a referral in WoW for example) and they say I can wear Clan Oath Brig and link it.<\/p>\n<p>I check my clan info and I am not sponsored by anyone.\u00a0 I ask if I can solo this quest and they said I need to be sponsored by an officer.\u00a0 I ask how to see this and they say &#8220;clan info&#8221; and explain about the flags.
