Due to some new people have made a bad start in making gangs, I thought I'd write this guide out to help you to the best of my ability. If you'd like to suggest stuff or ask me questions then please write them down below and I'll get to you as soon as possible.

Making a good gang in SSRP is extremely hard to do, As they're many reasons why your gang could fail or just nobody wants to join it. First of all, You need to make sure you've got enough funding in and out of the gang to start it off, You don't want to make a gang that isn't getting any further than just the cost of $50,000 to make it.

How to create a gang:
If you join in game and press f4 then go to "Gangs" you can see a new thing has popped up, If you're not in a gang you can see a option called "Create Gang". This will cost you $50,000 to do so.

Funding
Making a gang is hard if you're poor or have less money, I recommend having a good ammount of funds to start it off and get the ball rolling, Now don't just put all your money in it right away, due to you might not get any members and then you've just lost money. I recommend puting in $5,000,000 at first so that's something, Bare in mind you don't want to put in all of your money as it will be really hard at first.

Name
Now, You're wanting to make a unique name that will be known. You don't want to make a gang after games/items as it's just weird as most people want to join a gang that's unique and special in there own way. Just spend quite a bit of time thinking names or googling names for stuff then once your happy with the name then you want to make that gang that name.

Reputation
If you're in good relations with the community and you're not a rule breaker then that's a bonus as then people would join you as they know you won't get them in to trouble, I wouldn't start a gang if I was known as a rule breaker as then only rule breakers or nobody would join you and then you've just lost and letted the gang fail.

Tough
Starting a gang is really tough at first as you've got 0 upgrades so less people will join you due to not having enough upgrades to meet there needs, I'd recommend getting friends in the gang at first so it's known to be there and just focus on raiding and getting funds for the gang, Even when times are tough don't let it beat you, just strike back harder and then your gang will become a decent gang if you don't let hard times get you down.

Getting Members with 0 Upgrades
Now, getting members with 0 upgrades will be hard due to being so many other competitive gangs out there that might have more upgrades than you do/better than you. All you need to do is if you've just started off only invite friends until you get 1 or 2 upgrades then more people will be eager to join you due to you having some upgrades that makes them happy.

Fellow Members:
If you've already got members in your gang, Make sure you're strict on who you accept and don't do what most people do is accept everyone who applies, As if you do this your gang will be known as accepting everyone who's bad/good/rulebreaker and if you've got alot of rule breakers in your gang then your full gang will be in the bad books as then your gang will be known as the mingey gang who nobody wants to join.

Applications:
If you've made an application, I'd recommend making it good and snazzy so you'll learn most things about people before they're even in your gang, Now I'm not talking about asking them to write out a full essay just to join your gang as most people are lazy, Make it short and enough detail that you require.

Members with Upgrades:
If you're lucky enough to get this far with your gang then you've overcame some of the obstacles, Just remember to not accept every person in your gang as then rule breakers will join and then that's your gang always known as rule breakers, I'd check them every week if you're hosting meeting and always speak to officers to see if they have any problems. As Friendliness is key to become a successful gang that player will join and love to be in.

Reputation:
I wouldn't recommend you back stabbing people, As then your gang will be known as people who back stab so people won't like you or your gang as they can't trust you.
Starting and earning them:
If you've just made a gang and you've got 0 upgrade, It'll take some time before you get one due to needing to have $50,000,000 and 50,000 loot for the cheapest upgrade. Just keep at it and get known with people who base a lot so you'll earn $$$ then just raid people so you manage to get Loot.

Buying a gang:
Yes, You could also buy a gang that has upgrades to make it easy for you, All you need is $$$$ and then the person who is selling there gang will make you owner of it so then you have upgrades if you don't want to earn them all yourself.

If you've got any questions/suggestions to ask, Then post them down below and I'll help you out the best I can, Hopefully this guide helps you make a new gang and maks you understand it is quite hard to make it successful so be prepared!
