New Gaming Clan

Hiya everyone

I am thinking of starting a new gaming clan for Ship Simulator 2008 to coincide with the Multiplayer release.  For those who have no idea what a clan is, please see below

Quote from Wiki regarding clans:

'In computer and video gaming, a clan or guild is a group of players who regularly play together in a particular (or various different) multiplayer games. The word "clan" comes from the gaelic word "clann" meaning group of children. These games range from groups of a few friends to 1000-person organizations, with a broad range of structures, goals and members. Numerous clans exist for nearly every online game available today, notably in first-person shooters, massively multiplayer games, role-playing games, and strategy games.'

This clan will give us an 'extra element' to the multiplayer side of Ship Sim '08 (and beyond) as the development progresses

I've already chosen an initial name for the clan and tried to find one that had unique 'Tags'.  Tags are the letters before your name to represent your clan membership.

Example:
[RWP] in my nickname.  This stands for Real World Productions, the first (and only) clan I have ever been involved with previously.  I founded this 'multi-gaming' clan in October 2006 and it's still going, although I don't involve myself in the clan duties anymore (I passed the torch to the senior members last month).

Anyone interested in joining, please let me know and we will make plans to get the clan up and running

Of course, any suggestions are more than welcome (either here or in PM).  The more suggestions we have and the more members involved, the better it will be, not just for us but for the future of Ship Sim

Regards.

DJM.

LOL @ first bit

As the Multiplayer is still WIP and full details are not yet available, we don't know what features are going to be included.  There are alternatives if VOIP is not one of the inclusions......Teamspeak or Ventrillo could be used for comms for the time being

1 point I would like to make clear for anyone wishing to join:

Only members with legally purchased versions of the game will be accepted.  Anyone found to not have a legal version will either be denied membership of the clan or dismissed from the clan without hesitation.  We are trying to promote the online features here, so it's only fair to Vstep and all members for this to be a rule that, IS NOT, and WILL NEVER BE, open to negotiation.

Other aspects of the clan should be a discussion between members I believe

Regards.

DJM.

Vent and Teamspeak (as mentioned by my bro) are two great programs, great for tactical play

[Captain Kool]

Where do I sign?

[Season]

-keeps on imagining-

[hongzhu]

[[RWP]DJM]

hey nubcake wat do u like to do in multiplayer?

I can answer that in a word.....'CRAZY'

Although, she will explain why I guess

As I have already told her, she needs Battlefield 2 for her 'addiction'

[Gustav]

Sign me up for sure 

EDIT:Everyone is welcome ?...

[[RWP]DJM]

Everyone is welcome ?...

Indeed

Of course, my post about legal versions of Ship Simulator will apply to anyone wishing to join

Regards.

Sounds like a good idea.

Thanks for the replies everyone, good to hear we have potentials

Ok, as I've already mentioned, I have a name chosen.  I am about to setup some clan forums in the next week or so, as soon as they're up, I will post the link here.  You will then be able to register and we can start things rolling

There will be public areas and member-only areas.  We may also need some Moderators on there, so anyone interested, let me know

I intend to assign at least 2 admins, but you must have previous experience of administration of a forum

These forums will be used to discuss 'clan-related' subjects and are not intended to detract from our wonderful community here

If you have any suggestions regarding the clan setup or the new forums, please let me know (in PM if necessary).

Regards.

DJM.

hey nubcake wat do u like to do in multiplayer?

I think that's very immature and selfish. It might be funny to you but other people may not see it in the same way.
You are just looking to be a nuisense.

[02ian]

I'd join (as soon as i get the game) (assuming it runs)

what area/ map would the clan operate in?
(personally i prefer the Solent)

I know. I am just kidding. Never take me too serious XD.

A further update for you all:

The clan forums are up:

Multiplayer Ship Simmers Clan (http://www.mpssclan.co.uk/forum)

That is the name I chose, tags are [MPSS].  All topics are locked at the moment and no registrations are possible, I just wanted to know what you think of it so far

I have made 2 posts in the News & Announcements section

I will add more skins soon and you will be able to select your own, instead of the forum default

Hope you like it

Regards.

DJM.

Like the new site looks really good

[Orinoco]

I'd be interested. I'm sure I could fit it in somwhere between BF2142 and MSTS.
