Clan Wolf in Exile would beg to differ.  As would the Khans of Clan Wolf, Clan Ghost Bear, Clan Snow Raven, Clan Hell's Horses, Clan Jade Falcon, etc...From the DA.  So canon already supports Clan/Khanship without being in the Grand Council. 

...Wolf Clan forever. As Grand Council[/i] Clan, I mean.

Fixed...As for 'him', I agree.  But, there is relevance to what happened back then.

And Fixed for you. There is no difference between a Grand Council Member and a Khan.

"You had your chance to bid for the right to Absorb Clan Cloud Cobra, and you passed on it. Clan Star Adder is in the vein of the Black Mandrills, and we deserve some explanations of your actions."

Black Mandrills! I love it +1

You're arguing semantics. You're using a definition of the word no one else here uses, meaning that technically you're using a different word entirely.

[NVA]

You referenced canon to back up one of your claims, reasonably so.  So, while, IC, the Khans may try to ignore it, here, in this OOC forum, I recognize that canon states that being a member of the Grand Council does not make you clan.  Clan is a way of life, not a membership in a club.

Star Adders, Sharks, please make sure to use the correct tables for Interdiction breaking.

[Holt]

It was an ASF on ASF naval engagement to break an interdiction.

I noticed. Too late. But what can I say, I am Ice Hellion.

I disagree, even with your misstatement corrected.

And you are still just arguing semantics. You're using a definition of the word distinct from that agreed upon by the people arguing with you. You're not going to convince us because definitions are arbitrary.

The way of life requires membership in the club.

So, according to you, the 'Dark Age' Ghost Bears/RD, Wolves, Falcons, Ravens, Horses, etc...Are not clan either?

We've covered this before. As far as I know, that's correct.

Interesting.  I never read that in any of the material and thought that they still referred to themselves as Clan XXX.  They still act generally like clanners.  But, I guess if you see them as non clan, then you are right.  I don't interpret the data the way you do.

[DXM]

I'd imagine that JediBear's going off of the concept that since the Homeworlds -- and thus, the seat of the Grand Council -- were cut off from the Invading Clans, that they therefore were not communicating with the GC and therefore no longer truly a part of it.  Which to me makes a certain amount of sense, although they still called themselves Clans and many continued to abide by Clan doctrine, organization, tactics, and traditions.  Which, in the end, means that it all comes down to personal interpretation.
