To clarify a few things for you, iClan guys:
1. The reason people are ripping on you is because it is clear that you have very little experience with the clan scene in AC. This is not meant to offend you, but just be a statement of facts. We usually see clans like yours attract dozens of members in a few days, many of whom stop playing AC a few days later, and then the clan then dies in a few weeks.
2. Using just the letter 'i' as a clan tag was a really bad idea, as lots of people already used that. But you figure that out already yourself.
3. Clan "wars" (they are usually called "matches") almost always happen spontaneously. Groups of players simply happen to be online at the same time and challenge each other to a match. Very, very rarely do clans contact each other beforehand.
A few suggestions for you guys (just trying to be friendly and help out new players here, take it or leave it):
1. Spend some time on IRC and get to know people through it. Start at http://gamesurge.net/chat and then spend some time on AC clan channels. A few popular ones (other people will list more, for sure) are #pbclan, #dedicatedelitesoldiers, #tearyoudown.
2. Don't just recruit anyone. Have some purpose and direction as a clan. Are you playing to be the best, or do you just want to be friendly? Know what kind of members you want. Make sure your members have some dedication (at least make sure they register on your website) or chances are they'll quit playing AC in a few days and you'll never see them again.
Best of luck fellas!
