I mentioned something similar in another post, and I agree that we need more clan/sub/channel options, but I don't think it's wise to fragment the user base too much this early. Adding broad topics which can then be tailored into smaller groups later seems like a better idea.

Reddit started out on a similar path. At first it was just "reddit", then the admins created 20-30 subs like technology, science, and pics, and once they got a critical mass of users they added the option to create your own sub.

That said, I like your idea.

New Clan SuggestionsI totally get limiting the number of Clans until user counts go up. As they do, here’s a list of some communities you could consider adding:

• Paranormal

Nice, but maybe start broader with something like #WeirdShit

• Animal clans (Cats, Dogs, Pets, Cute)

Start with just #Pets or #Animals and go from there

• Movies
• TV
• Music
• Art
• Books

Yes

• Funny

Yes

• Advice (like AskReddit)

• It would also be worth it to consider something that could be unique and original to Spyke...
