Full Version : Legit Concerns

(RoL)BigDaddyDLo- 06-11-2007
Alrighty Ive had some concerns about the clan in general. Somehow we've lost a lot of our activity. I remember when we first started up on the ps3 we were doin pretty good, got a ton of members, and had some big parties owning people. Well now its like Im on all day, and I dont see that many people on throughtout the day, nor do I see us having as big of parties and consistantly as we used to.
We also DONT GAMEBATTLE. Of Course this is mostly in part to it not being made known that you have to/how to sign up for RoL on gamebattles. One may say "Who cares" but we've lost some of our really great players because:
A) We dont gamebattle
B We dont roll like we used to with bigger parties of ownage
C) we are filling up with some really crappy players as opposed to how we used to be mostly all supreme commanders, now half the clan is below S.C., and Im noticing some of the S.C. or 4 stars suck ######. Sorry to be blunt, but its true :\ Im losin my skill as well it seems which is frustrating.
D) we dont have legend on as much to send out clan tag invites so Ive lost good recruits because of that they get another invite.
E) We also dont have a good network. The Clan In-Game Interface hasnt been updated since the beginnings (needs GB info and such). Forums are basically near inactive besides less than a handful of posts a day. Our website is extremely out of date. I tried to get the ball rollin on this stuff 2 months ago but it seems no one really is interested in hoppin on board.
Being the very competitive person I am, always wanting to be the best that I can be, I wanna be gamebattling and growing/getting better as a clan instead of being stagnant. It really doesnt seem like many other people share that same desire :/
I understand if you guys are just casual gamers, but my style is just competitive gaming, so I'd like to see your thoughts. I don't want to just quit as I like the people here, and feel like I have some history with yall since I've been playin with SWL/RoL since about last October on the SWL TOTAL servers.
I dunno if yall just got more obligations, I know Im basically free for the days when Im not workin, but it just seemed like at one point we were goin somewhere fast, and now we are just stagnant and not showing signs of any progress, or interest in progress.

I feel ya bro and let me tell you that I'm going to try and change the way things have been. I know what your saying because I'm the same way. Every game I play I'm trying to be the best because thats just how I am. We need to make an organized list of things we can do to make that clan better.
Like .....
!. a new site ( freewebs is noobish )
2. Better forums
3. Everyone needs to get more active on the forums
I know theres more but thats 3 basic ones. I think the biggest problem we have is that none of us know how to get some of those cool ###### sites. I'm also going to be editing the forums you posted up because I really like them , so we can use those instead. Also i think once we do that we should get rid of the freewebs site and just use the forums since there nice enough. But like I said these are just Ideas and we need everyone to pitch in and give there thoughts. But I hear you loud and clear and were on the same page.
Legend what are your thoughts ?

Take a look at other clans web sites. Thats what we should be striving for.
The only one I know the exact link for is proskills.us but theres many others out there that are just as good. SOS has good forums, they have a link in their thread on myresistance.net forums. We should also try to hang out there I guess so people get known. Seems to have worked for SOS. But I dunno. Is anyone willing to start gettin stuff done or does the majority wanna just be casual gamers? Nothing wrong with casual gamers, its just that like I said its not what Im in a clan to do exactly.

what it all boils down to gentleman is loot,
if we want better we have to all pot in,
Legend has brought us real far ,
i know hes put alot in,
but hes like a one man army,
its tough cuz all us grown mothafuckaz gotta make ends meet at the same time support a game habit, get laid,get high,what ever to relax
i mean i feel ya pain and im down but we gotta set positions and fulfill tasks,
now i suggest u c what ya families can put in,
like u said u strive to be the best, competition,thats all our goals im sure,
but all in all if u want results,we need to find a way for the team to support itself,
maybe bring in money some kinda way, sponsorship
its enough for us to pay bills ,do what has to be done and, play to get our game up
AND MOST IMPORTANT an active game that poses great skill and accuracy so that a professional can be named and con-*test*-('")s can be played,
not this rinky dink clan battleshit,i mean its fun,but i want MONEY Nigga,
Money for my talents so when we do when we progress,
victory is lavish making it all worth while,
then u can show mothafuckaz y u play games,
we can All achieve it Gentleman,
The question is,what do u got to bring to table???
Money Makes Money
Now i know all u fresh young mindz can come up with somethin,
Time is of the essence cuz every game gets older and new ones r made

Lets me just add this .. Bigdaddy I have seen a lot of fancy clan websites and Legends of Gaming is striving to not only have a nice site one day but to be the best and I have no doubt that one day we will be. I appreciate that you posted your concerns instead of just leaving us , it shows you have dedication.

I don't intend to leave, even though I was actually considering for like an hour :s But really Ive been through some tough times with clans. Hell lead a clan for a year and a half that went through some rough times. I hate to quit though. Especially since I'd feel bad cuz ya'll are my friends.
But really, we gotta get stuff done here if we want to actually be a good clan.
Leader, go get a ps3 lol

Sure thing buddy ... 78 victorian lane , Mandeville , 70471
Theres all the info you need have it shipped to me.
So lets think about this what are the first steps to making this clan the best ?

1. More activity on games.
2. More activity on forums.
3. A frequently updated professionally done looking website
4. Better Forums
5. Legend needs to get a better router or somethin so he doesnt go missing for days at a time ;\ Cant recruit when Your no where to be found bro :s
6. Make sure everyone is up on gamebattles and gamebattle frequently for status and getting the name out.
7. Active members with RoL sigs on Myresistance.net. Believe it or not most clans that get "popular' and well known its from having a good presence on Official game Forums, Or the most popular sites (in this case though, myresistance.net).
Thats the best off the top of my head and all it really takes is a little effort, and we should probably have a "leading group" like a council or so that has all the passwords for clan accounts for the sake of recruitment and updating, and validating matches with gamebattles, stuff like that.

I'm down with whatever I can do 2 help.
(SWL)ImperialPhoenix- 06-18-2007
I'm still here, I just had some regents, lol.
I going to make a new rooster list and get the arcade installed, after that I going to need
the most active to hand me a list of players that is still posting in this forum.
Downloading the images for the style that is used on the 3rd party services should not be hard and giving the dude credit.
BigDaddyDLo, if you have time, can you ask your forum providers for the theme file used in that forum, if not I going to have to download all the images.
