When a newly minted character joins a clan through the academy, the clan won’t learn about the new person unless they speak up on clantalk. Newer players are sometimes hesitant to pipe up on a global channel – and in some cases, they are unaware of the existence of clantalk.
It would be nice if clans got an alarm when when a new person joins through the academy.

I agree with this. It makes it easier for the clan to know the player needs to be trained and helped. And it stops people who join clans for access to their facilities and resources while never acknowledging they are a member or contributing to them in any way.

This is the message we get when a new player takes the newbie option in the academy:
(IMM Notice) Walldo registering as a new player in the newbie academy. Please assist if needed.
So something like this? What should it say?

What if the player just gets a recho and a little introductory message clan’s can personalize that entreats them to “clan” at everyone if they want to?
You could even make it as simple as forcing them to view a help clan_republic_greeting or whatever file.

RE: Walldo – something like that would be great. Just, triggered on making a clan choice through the academy.
I’m unsure whether it should echo the person’s name, just say “someone”, or give their race.
@Ryken: New players may not always read everything that’s thrown at them, and sometimes they will be hesitant to speak up on a clan channel.

You should make it something cool like. “Incoming Academy Shuttle – please report to (locaton) for pickup of new trainee.” Then the clan can have personnel designated to make contact with the recruit and to set them in the correct division. They can then help coordinate their training/issue gear.

Moving forward, clans will see some variation of this echo when someone joins from the academy:
&RClan Alert&r: &C$n&w, a $r, has joined the
from the Academy. Their shuttle is about to arrive on : Please say hello and provide any assistance needed.
