(If this is the wrong place to post this, I'm really sorry, I just joined like 2 minutes ago)
Anybody that is in the clan BUSHIDO clan (clan tag will prob be (BD), especially Beast, I'm having troubles finding people.
Also, if anyone as ideas (besides x fire, because I am waiting for the person who is the administrator for my computer to install it ...... which looks like it's gonna take a while -_- ) please let me know here, I would really appreciate it !!!

O_o
*me searches for DT's clanning/irc guide.
EDIT: read this here http://dplogin.com/forums/index.php?topic=2004.0

IRC Guide (http://digitalpaint.planetquake.gamespy.com/testwiki1/pb2wiki.php?word=IRC+Guide)
That's one of the ones on the Wiki.

Ok, that made no sense, but I'm really getting fed up with this stupid "relocating forums" thing I get when I go to the main site....
I've been given like twentey links I haven't been able to get at !!!
P.S. : This was more something for people in BD to see and find me by, but thanks for the input anyway guys !!!

Heres the working link: http://alt.dplogin.com/forums/index.php?topic=2004.0
Just add an 'alt.' between the http:// and the dplogin.

I highly doubt any of those pub kids even look at the forums

hi soldier, i did join bushido, but most of the people who i thought were in it went off and joined other clans. so i thought is was a flash in the pan type clan, which i thought was a pity. I am keen to be a part of it all, if you'll still have me, however, i wonder if because im in australia, it makes it a bit tricky for me to be on in your 'prime time' .. anywayz. consider this... aussie trev... checking in..
-
Ok, trev, your in, we need people, but who was it that brought you in, Beast? I would like to know if you remember, by the way, what's your paintball name, and who did you see that joined other clans? If it was naomi, that's no prob, she keeps threatening to leave -_- and did once, but she's back now.
-
You need to do this over IRC.
-
By the way, trev, I forgot to add this in my last post, but Bushido is using a new form of ranking (which was actualy designed and is run by me, at least it is run until I find Beast -_- )
We use military rankings, Private (Pvt.), Corporal (Cpl.), Saegant (Sgt.), Lieuteant (Lt.), Captian (Cpt.), Major (Maj.) and Lieutenant Colonel (Lt.CL.), in that order, Pvt. being the lowest, and Lt.Cl. being the highest (which is Beast, the clan leader)
There's a little more to it than that, such as units, password levels, responsibilities and privlages, etc. but those are the ranks, and that's their order. If you want to join still, let me know and I'll explain it to you more. I can probably get you a good rank, because we still don't have alot of people, and we are slowly growing still, and you sound like a loyal and enthusiastic person.
Anyway, we would love to have you, if you still want in just reply here, and also, if you see any of our members, they may have clan tag either [BD] or [BUSHIDO], let me know ! Especialy if you see [BUSHIDO] Beast !
-
Cobo, I have two computers, and the one I most commonly use (because it is the better, faster one, and my brother believes the slow one is better :) ) does not have irc or mirc downloaded, so I can't, also, when on irc and mirc, you probalby won't see specific people unless you arange it, or know when they go on, but a fourm stays up.
-
Just to clear something up: mIRC is an IRC client, not 2 different clients.
Also, if you or your clan members arent involved in the community enough to be on IRC then there is no reason to even have a clan.
-
ok, ty cobo, but our clan is not fully up yet, well it is, but not organized yet
-
ok.. raven, alias, grass, three i can remeber off the top of my head. Raven was one who got me to the try out, and also the one who switched clans, claiming he was in two and that was ok. hence my thoughts that bushido was no more, or not really a serious clan. try outs were pretty easy must i say, but i guess its all part of the process. I hope the ranking systems works, and more importantly, has a point.. i have mIRC. So yeah, if thats where this needs to be continued so be it.. I'd hate to step on anyones toes, as i do enjoy this game, and hope that the next step of getting more involved can come out of joining this clan. if i see beast in my travels I'll make sure to point him in your direction. my paintball name is aussie trev.
-
I never officially left... so i guess im still in, just dont have the tag on :P this is joker by the way
-
Ok, clock, like I said, we use military rankiings, look at one of my other post for a more detailed description.
Now, for both of you, the colour of the first bracker (if you have any around clan tag) and the B (in BD, or BUSH if using BUSHIDO as clan tag, which I don't think anyone is but beast) indicates your rank, and the D (if usuing BD, or IDO if using BUSHIDO) and the last bracket (if you have any around clan tag) indicate your unit.
Now about the setup, this is the closest I can show you here.
Lt. Cl.
l
Maj.
l
Cpt.
l
/ \
Lt.(1) Lt.(2)
l l
/ \ / \
/ \ / \
/ \ / \
Sgt.(1)Sgt.(2)Sgt.(3)Sgt.(4)
l l l l
Cpl.(1) Cpl.(2) Cpl.(3) Cpl.(4)
l l l l
/\ /\ /\ /\
/ \ / \ / \ / \
P.1 P.2 P.3 P.4 P.5 P.6 P.7 P.8
Lt.Cl.=Lieutenant Colonel
Maj.=Major
Cpt.=Captian
Lt.=Lieutenant
Sgt.=Saergant
Cpl.=Corporal
Pvt.=Private (Normal short form is Pvt. but I had to use just P on the chart or else it wouldn't have fit)
Note: I used brown for Cpl. though it should really be olive green, but that is not a colour option on this site, but is in paint ball. I also used green for Pvt. though the real colour is dark green, but this is also not a colour option on this site, but is on paintball.
The colour of the rank on the chart is the rank colour, and people of that rank will have the [B in their clan tag that colour as I mentioned above, and the D] in their unit colour, as I explained above.
-
Ok, I did not add this in my last post, because I didn't want it to be any longer, but now for unit colours, which will also explain the numbers on the chart, and classes.
Clases: Lt.Cl., Maj. and Cpt. are all COs (Commanding officers)
Lt. and Sgt. are officers
Cpl. and Pvt. are soldiers
Units and Unit Colours: Lt.Cl., Maj. and Cpt. have their entire clan tag the colour of their rank (red, orange or yellow). Lt.(1) leads white platoon, which is made up of red squad, lead by Sgt.(1), and yellow squad, led by Sgt.(2). Lt.(2) leads black platoon, which is made up of blue squad, led by Sgt.(3), and green squad, led by Sgt.(4). The two Lt.s' unit indicator(the part of the clan tag that shows the person's unit is the unit indicator) indicates their platoon (black or white), and the four Sgt.s', four Cpl.s' and eight Pvt.s' unit indicators show what squad they are in (red, yellow, blue or green).
Therefor, Lt.(1)'s clan tag would either look like this : [BD] or this [BUSHIDO]

-
lol, i wasnt going to say anything but the colour coding is going a bit too far... it just confuses me with those darned rankings too
-
Are there even 21 members in that clan?
What will happen when there are 22+ members?
-
Your system is terrible honestly. Nowhere in the military do you find such a bad setup.

P.1 P.2 P.3 P.4 P.5 P.6 P.7 P.8
Okay if a LtC is just over 1 Major, and 1 Major is just over 1 Captain, why even have the LtC and the Major? Why not just the Captain giving orders, instead of playing telephone from the LtC.
-
No, there are not yet 21 members, but I hope to get more, and if that does happen, I willl slightly change the stucture, for example, add another Private in each squad, or add another squad to each platoon, or add another platoon, etc.
As for clockwork, it may look a little confusing, but once it's up and properly being used, the higher ups will take care of the complicated things, and it will be very simple, by the way, anyone who is in BUSHIDO, please post here and let me know, even if you already have, so that I know for sure who's in and who's not.
-
Sorry, I just saw yootz's post, so I'm sorry about the double post.
Anyway, the reason it is setup to bad is because we don't have enough people to make a more realistic setup. It might get better when we get more people, but this will have to do for now.
Also, the Captian organizes the troops, the Major takes care of technical things, and the Lt.Cl. does server related things. Basicaly the Major is there for the things not important enough to bother the Lt.Cl. with, and the Captian takes care of the lower people. So, the COs are more or less high versions of each other, the higher they go, the more advanced, except for a few things that are not the same in lower COs of course.
-
of course you know, this will never work with this game right?
-
What do you mean? Also, it's not complete control, it's jsut a pass determining and responsibility sort of thing, and if people have officers to follow the intructions of, then it would be easier to organize people for clan games, meetings, etc.
-
It will not work, ranks never have in games. Also, I think Soldier knows it won't but just wants to raise his post count.
-
Too bad clan-hopping is one of the things that take part in this game quite often.
YOU WILL LOOSE YOUR SERGEANTS IN A CLAN WAR!!!11!!
-
No yootz, I do not just want to raise my count, I don't even know what you get to do with higher levels, so what would I care, the reason I posted poll in the first place was to find anyone in BUSHIDO, and possibly get more members. I posted the chart for trev.
Also, bitmate, it is spelt Saergants.
One more thing, a little off topic. Why is everyone giving me bad karma, just please tell me what I am doing that you don't like and I will try to stop. Also, please no bad karma for this post.

No, yOOtz, I mean what is it that make those posts bad? By the way, why did I get my plus?
-
it's spelt Seargants

-
Alright, ty basilo, it is Sergeant, your right, alright sorry everyone.
-
Also, bitmate, it is spelt Saergants.
Sergeant
A rank in many modern militaries, especially the United States military, that is above corporal (Army/Marine Corps) and below staff sergeant.

*edit: I'm feeling like giving you a minus, but unfortunately I've to wait for 730hrs since I gave you one for excessive spamming ;)
-
ite ok bitmate, i'm sure i can spare one myself, it is for a good cause after all..
-
What do you mean exceussive spamming? When did I do that?
-
You been here for 10 days and you have 80 posts. I've been here for two years and only have twice that.
Look how many posts you make per day: Posts: 82 (7.455 per day)
Even Jitspoe, the maker of the game, admin of the forums etc makes half as much as you: 6685 (3.117 per day)
-
I do have a question for you soldier:
In a server today, you said you were a member of VTX. So are you a member of 2 clans?
-
Also, bitmate, it is spelt Saergants.
Learn to use the spell check button because it is still spelled wrong.
One more thing, a little off topic. Why is everyone giving me bad karma, just please tell me what I am doing that you don't like and I will try to stop. Also, please no bad karma for this post.
Bitmate had it right when he said excessive spamming.
Too bad my 730 hours isn't up on you. :P

You are one to talk :)
-
You spam excessively too... all you ever post is simple minded 4 word phrases that add nothing to the overall meaning of the thread.
-
Close the thread.
No (BD) members are on the forums, so no one will ever take care of this...
Basically it's just flaming, and spaming, and flaming about spaming...
-
Sort of, vtx is going to give me a password, because I am a friend of the clan leaders best firend, so I get the best pass, along with someone else.
Also, bitmate, I don't want other people here, I am trying to talk t trev, who is joing BD, but you guys keep talking about other stuff, so I would appreciate if you took this to general disccusion please.
-
Talking to someone that might join a clan is relevant for General Discussion? More like PM...
-
No, this is my clan poll, and it is in the clan section, so it is fine.
By the way, trev, I'm still waiting to hear from you.
-
It may be relevant to the topic but it only pertains to one person...There for you should use PM's because the rest of the community is not interested in your conversation.
-
Yes, but this topic is still up for other people who are in BUSHIDO to find, if they are on site, or join.
-
Look, If you cant even reach your teammates through the forums then you shouldnt even be making this clan. What will happen when you have to match? You're just gonna go to all servers and search for teammates? It wont work, sorry.
-
No, by the time we start having matches, I will have xfire, and I will have the msn adresses of most of the people in my clan, if not all. Thank you for the advice though Cobo.
-
Why not get xfire now it will save you some time =]
-
No, by the time we start having matches
Do you even have members to match with?
-
Do you even have members to match with?
They are still setting up their hierachy ;)
-
Yes we are, thank you (I think) but I haven't got xfire yet because I am not the administrator on my computer, and the administrator hasn't installed it yet.
-
i missed you during this days
-
i think we all did
-
What do you mean?
-
That they missed you.
-
Never mind, I'm still confused, what do you mean they missed me?
-
We missed you're 49 posts in four minutes.
-
lol, oh, ok, thank you ( I think )
-
/me just shakes his head...

Now I fell even worse....
