Honestly I don't really see why we bother to dicuss this. I mean it all depends on what Ronin wants to do and he hasn't said anything. Some of you have mentioned "this is the way he wanted it" but I don't think he posted anything. Not saying your wrong but....Ronin mind letting us know if we're heading in the right or wrong direction?

I'm having to much fun playing on the server to be the boss. I respect and acknowledge all ideas. For now pay attention to how many ex-SR JKA members are in this new clan, and 3 more have expressed interest in joining. We can discuss recruitment after we secure more old friends as XA members.

Ok, 3 entry duels, 3 week trial period, 3 ending duels. No emphasis on winning 2 of 3 for either set of duels, they are just ceremonial. Master and padawan assignments can be done, thats up to the trial member and the member who wants to train him/her. This way the trial period gives us the time to observe and decide if the trial member is fit for clan membership.
How does that sound?

Sounds good but what do we tell the padawan about the entry and end duels? I suggest we tell him that we look at how the padawan improved his (or her) saber skills

Hmm, you may want to look at more than just a saber skill. I guess a full evaluation of activity, skill, and maturity. Depending upon how well that is, if at least 2 of three of those traits excel, then let them know what to improve on or something of the sort.

I was just wondering how we would explain the purpose of the entry/end duels to the padawan

Well, when they wanna join, and we're cool with it, we'll tell them to do three duels with [insert name here]. Following those duels, we'll tell em they've done a good job, however, they need to wait three weeks, then the Master is chosen. Following those three weeks is the final duels and then, woo, happy day, change you're tag, let's all go get drunk for this nonsense, drinks on the new kid.

Also entry duels should be done with 2-3 members, so the applicant can fight 2-3 different player styles and its an opportunity to meet some of the XA members.

The period in between the first set and the second set of duels should certainly be used for getting a master and becoming better. And I see the appeal of having a goal for them for the second duels.
Perhaps a compromise could be found between those who want ranks and those who find them unnecessary. There were the separate Jedi titles that had less to do with rank and more to do with what the Jedi was best at. The 4/6 could help determine which title they got. Someone who was strongest with the saber could be, say, a Guardian while others who were not so good with the saber but who seemed good at other aspects could be or Consulars or Sentinels or Watchmen or whatever.
These "ranks" would really just be titles; everyone would still be held to be equal as Ronin has described. But it would add an interesting variance.

That argument right there would bring up the question of, would we want titles then?

i like the idea, but something like that sounds too easy to become elitist about it.

I like the idea of having titles in general that has to do with skill. But at the same time it sounds too easy for some idiot to go "lol, stewped nub" to anyone with a lower rank then themselves.

I don't see that being much of a problem honestly.
