well i notice that there are 1,000 people in this clan and alot of people in it want to be serious about it. so how is this HL2.net clan going to get started and managed? Just seems like it will be hard to do.

so whats the plan of action??
 
someone needs to make a site and forums, we need to have somebody step up and take control, assign some squad leaders, and so forth, and somebody needs to buy a server (or 2). easy.
 
yea its jsut going to tak alot of motivation and managment to get this going
 
will all those hundreds of people buy, and play, BF2 on a regular basis though?
I am sure a lot of people will drop off the list around release.
that being said I always seem to play with the same people regardless, I don't think there will be any problems when it comes to orginization, especially with a tool like Xfire.
 
Yea, anyone who wants to be in the clan has to put forth a few bucks every month. I mean, if everyone will support, 2-3 bucks a month will be all thats needed.

put all money in an envelope (hehe remember that) and send it to me.

I still think the clan is going to become/stay self regulating, those who want to mess around and take things lightly, will tend to play with other members who like the same deal,while us serious folk will find our niche among other forum members who share the same attitude.

I see little point in having clan leaders, set commanders, and set squad leaders and squads... as I said before I tend to be with the same crowd regardless, there are few times when I don't have space for one or the other.

I will do it!. You all bow down to your new Commander now!
Take orders from me only.
When i say Run! You say How Fast?!
You n00bs got a lot to learn, Maggots!
 
If there is going to be a clan people need to set aside atleast 3 nights a week. 1 for clan matches, and 2 for practice.

Why the hell would people pay to be in a clan when there are plenty of other free ones?

If I were to pay to be in a clan I'd expect something in return, honestly.

You would get a server to play on, a TS/Vent server, and a website with forums. You aren't paying to be in the clan, you are paying for the servers. If you don't pay for it that just means some other guy is going to have to pay $100 a month, instead of $2.
 
I thought we got our servers complementary as part of the deal with the forums?

HL2.net might, but are they willing to change games? Even though no one plays on them...
 
I wouldn't mind helping to pay for a server and whatever we need. I think if we do get more serious...competition wise then we would need our own server. We also don't really need any type of leadership,where someone is the dictator and we all follow orders. It could be run more like a democracy, say someone has an idea, well they post about it in the forums and we all vote for/against it or change it. We could also open positions, like someone to keep track of members, someone to do scheduling, someone to deal with money for the server and whatever else we would need. No one would have to be any higher than anyone else.
 
Come fall I won't have time for clan matches and practices unless they happen to all be on weekends... (doubtful)

I'd like to be able to take a serious role in the clan but I just won't have the time.

:(

3-4 more days and we can seriously talk about the clan.

In my opinion, a democracy, like mentioned earlier, is the best idea. I feel 2-3 "leaders" would just ruin the balance of things.

If HL2Net is willing to change the servers to BF2, I'd love it. As for spending money, it's a good possibility for me, I can find 2 or 3 dollars laying around the house somewhere and send it via paypal. I say, anyone who donates money should get admin on the server for the months they donate.

If I do donate money, however, I need to know that every penny is being spent on the server.
 
if a site needs to be designed ill be more than happy to design it..
i am after all one of the 1000 applying lol.
 
I would love to pay, but the fact is, I can't. I don't have a PayPal account, credit card, or parents willing to create a PayPal account.
 
I can design a site that works, it won't be the best out there but I can make a pretty good site if need be.
 
I can give out orders like a commander.
GO GO GO MAGGOTS!
 
Wait a week. Then we'll talk.

(Until then, I suggest we suggest suggestions about suggesting suggestions)

Edit - Ermac, that is way too damn colorful. Turn it off.
 
HL2.net BF2 clan? count me in. as long as I get to be spec ops.... :E
Anyway, how is this server thing gonna work? will b33f.co.uk or limelite or whatever give us a free bf2 server?
 
I would like to know, when the game comes out, how many people are willing to commit 3 days nights a week. Also, only the best players would be allowed to play in matches (obviously).

I thought I was an ok player untill I played a few games with you. At first I thought you were just a really good pilot, but you're also an excelent foot soldier. Mad skillz :cheers:

Heh thanks. I just fell in love with the anti tank kit, I love shooting the crappy SMG at guys far away so they take cover, and then I take out my rocket launcher and nail them :)

:P
That's the same thing I do. Just shoot at them enough to make them go prone, then they get a rocket to the face.
 
I'd say I could wip Foxtrot in a 1v1 gunfight. Although in the air, Foxtrot owns all.

Who are you?
I am pretty good with spec ops and medic though.

I was wondering the same damn thing...
Ermac you come off as a 10 year old (don't know if that was your intention or not) Im sure everyone here will be dieing to be in your squad :>
but seriously, please change that Sig you have... it's very distracting.

anywhoo, Foxtrot is a damn fine squad member, all this talk of "Oh I'm better at blah, and I could blah blah" is ridiculous.
this is not Counter-Stirke (or any other crap game for that matter) this is a teamgame, your personal score means nothing... chances are you will NEVER get the opportunity to go 1 on 1 with one of the squad, as we/they work well together, and should stick together and support eachother.

I wasn't being entirely serious...just some friendly competition.

oh I know, I was speaking in general terms, no offence as it was not directed at you (or anyone specifically really).
 
Pardon me for taking it as directed towards me.

Anyways...as the game is going to be out shortly, I say we need a HL2NET server ASAP, where we can asses squad leader qualifications and organize the squads.
 
Okay to clear things up about my first post (since I haven't looked at thid thread in awhile), ... the money was for a clan SERVER and/or TEAMSPEAK. Hell no, would I join a clan that you had to pay to get in... that's just wrong.

Agreed.

If we do this we should have 2 different sections. Competing and non competing(like we have now). The competing section would be invite only and you would have to be good in order to get in. The non competing section would be for those not as dedicated or trying to get into the competing section.
