How to start a Party-Only the owner and admins can start a party. Go to Club, there you will see your club page. On the bottom of your screen there are three links: Parties, Campus Buzz and Find Clubs. Tap on the green Parties button. That will take you to the list of available parties. On the right after each party description there's a green button that says Do It!. Tap on it and that lets you start the party. If any of those are grayed out or you don't see a certain party, it means that you must successfully complete a certain party to unlock it.
How to make a thread-Go to Forum from your main screen. Then Forums (not active topics). There you will see different topics such as Strategy, Wars, etc. Choose whichever fits your thread best. Then go to the top right hand corner to a blue button that says New Post. Now you're ready to start a new thread.
