This page is entirely dedicated to BlogClan’s Allegiances.
Here, you can:
talk about the allegiances
campaign to become a senior warrior
ask for vouches
look for a mentor/apprentice (limited to twice a week)
(If you have an issue with your current purrsona, please submit a new form so that Viperfrost/Goldenfawn can correct any errors/ommissions at the beginning of the following month)
In alignment with the new changes to the Senior Warrior campaigning platform, please be aware of the following rules:
You can announce that you are running for Senior Warrior ONCE, in a short message such as “Hey, everybody! I’m running for SW and I’d appreciate it if you vouched!”. Afterward, you may remind others than you are running ONCE PER WEEK, again in a short message such as “I’m still running for SW and I’d appreciate any support!”. Placing reminders in your name or signature is still fine. 🙂 Please separate your 1) reminder and 2) question about how many vouches you have into two different comments. Any mod can mod your reminder; only two of us can review your vouch question.
You may no longer post lists of reasons others should vouch for you, since the merit of your actions should hopefully speak louder than words.
I (Viperfrost/Goldenfawn) will keep track of how many valid vouches you have and update the Allegiances accordingly. If you’d like the number of how many valid vouches you currently have, you can post that question below ONCE PER WEEK.
To be elligible to run, you must have been active for twelve months total. In the past, you would have had to be active for twelve months in a row. Activity is determined by if you’ve commented at least once per month for each of those twelve months.
You may no longer “vouch nag” (A.K.A. post lists of reasons one should vouch for a campaigner on behalf of that campaigner).
If you would like to show support (“Vouch for So-And-So!”) or say that you’ve vouched for a campaigner, please do so beneath their announcement or weekly reminder.
If you would like a list of who you’ve vouched for, you can ask below ONCE PER WEEK. Please note that asking who you’ve vouched for is different than asking who you’ve validly vouched for and may produce different answers. 🙂
Vouch Requirements:
1. The vouch must be three or more complete sentences long.
2. The vouch must be legible. Caps lock and intense exclaimations are not your friends.
3. The vouch must include three or more objective reasons, with support, regarding how the candidate benefits the community as a whole.
People usually get caught on the third requirement. I’ll give you an example of what one of these “reasons” would look like.
One NOT VALID reason: “Goldenfawn is very nice and friendly and I love them, they’re the best!!!”
One VALID reason: “Goldenfawn is very kind, warm, and outgoing, They’re always around to be a listener or to offer a shoulder to someone in their time of need in the BlogClan Community.
What makes this valid? You have the first sentence as your thesis. It’s your main point and your reason. It is followed up by another sentence that backs up your claim. You’re providing objective reasons about benefitting the community; you have to explain HOW the candidate carries out the reason you gave. It’s one thing to say someone is nice and quite another to explain why you think they’re nice. As a general reminder, you’ll need three of these reasons in your vouch (so three main points and three explanations of those points).
I was bored so I made a SilvFam chat page

Vouched! Valid or not valid, that is the question…/ref
(was it valid? :3)
Did I see that my apprentice Ember returned or did I go crazy 👀
woah 👀
nope, she’s here!!
I saw them like 2 weeks ago
There’s a lot of Embers, but if you’re talking about Emberfang, I’m not sure if she’s back yet, but it seems like she is from the other replies!!
I saw her a couple weeks ago so if that counts :DD
I think she returned, but I haven’t seen her in a while.
Spiri I have returned!! :DD hru? :))
Hey! Does anyone know how long it takes after you submit the form for it to go on allegiances?
normally around the start of the month after you submitted? but it depends, both of our allegiances mods are pretty busy c:
Thank you!
It just updates whenever the allegiance mods (Goldenfawn and Viperfrost) have the time!! <3
^^
There’s a apperentice overload, so if you’re a kit, you’re in luck for a mentor! This is a great strategy to secure a mentor so when you become a apperentice you won’t have to worry about finding one!
1. Advertise that you’re looking for a future mentor and that it’s fine if you’re a apperentice or warrior!
2. It’s fine to take ANY warrior if you choose a warrior as your mentor, but when choosing an apprentice as your mentor I reccomend getting one that becomes a warrior at about the same time you become an app.
3. Keep in touch with your new to-be mentor and give them reminders when needed to secure a bond. ALWAYS inform your mentor if you have to leave BlogClan/ resign as their app.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for helping everyone out with this, Cindy!
Cool advice!! I’m totally gonna get an app when I become a warrior :DD
Same 😀
me three :3
adding on to this: if youre becoming an app in like 2 years that might be a bit early 😛 try doing it a month or two prior so theres a lower chance of your mentor leaving haha
good advice!
nice advice! (ooh that rhymes)
Great advice!
Guys should I look for a new mentor?
I’ve only seen Bloss around once or twice, and I kinda wanted a mentor that was active on our chat page
If that’s what suits you, go ahead 😀 <3
I recommend you talk to her about it first, but other than that go ahead if you want :DD
^^
You can do that, but I saw Bloss on the Deputy’s Den a few days ago, but really it’s up to you 🙂
i’ve seen her recently, she’s still active! maybe talk to her about checking your chat page more?
Maybe you should talk to her about it frost?
does anyone know where mistpaw/feather and sparkkit/shade went? my two fever buddies are gonna miss the start of unrivaled 😭
Omg everyone’s looking for them lol
nope :p but tbh i dont pay much attention to which mist is who so i wouldnt know :sobs:
I haven’t seen Mizzie or Sparky in a while, sorry
No I haven’t, sry 🙁
idk where they went aaa 😭😭
also i hope this isnt rude or anything since mizzie and sparky are my friends and i don’t wanna wrongly accuse them buuuut im slightly suspicious that theyre the same person- nothing to confirm but a few pages back mizzie was commenting on sparky’s looking for a mentor comment and she doesnt really flunk that badly usually…
New page and it’s my second time this week 😛

“Reason” to vouch: 🐢
Umm, hello. I just joined and am looking for a mentor. I understand that Blogclan currently has an apprentice overload and am fine to wait for other people to graduate/ people who have been here longer. Some things and characters I like are:
Whitewing
Bluestar
Jayfeather
Narwhals
Video games
Studio Ghibli
Cats
Dogs
The colour aqua
Star wars
Bubble tea
If any one is willing to be my mentor, please reply to this comment. (I also try to make sure my grammar is correct just a weird quirk)
Good luck, and welcome to BlogClan! I’m not a warrior, but we can be friends if you want 🙂
