Fine. Actually I came to the conclusion that my suggestion of a clan-ladder or whatever you would have liked to call it is a really bad idea after I've read through the above posted links.
There seem to be serious disagreements concerning the nature and purpose of clans.
As not everyone seems to share a common definition about that I'd like you all to discard my ideas concerning the integration of clans here.
Why is it always the same? Why do some people think FO deserves to be used as a puddle?
That's not what FO deserves! That's not what the staffs' work deserves! They are working very very hard to create a game which is based on community, not pure opposition.
The posts MJP linked to were not made here. I absolutely dislike the thought that this could happen one day though.
I'd like to quote from the Forum-rules:
- Any kind of advertising about other mod, website or message board is not allowed. If you wish to advertise any other site, the only tolerated place for doing so is your signature, which you can edit within your profile.
- Any flooding with useless content is strongly forbidden.
- Posting stupid worthless polls is also counted as spamming and will be taken seriously.
Maybe this should also count for clans. If it is already intended to do that, please regard this a hint.
Really, it's a game. And it's a fantastic one!
Please do keep the forums clean and play Hoedown instead.
Maybe that's the point where the topic could be closed. Just as a suggestion.
