I know it has been some time since this thread has gotten attention, but that is because I am in a middle of a big move. The good news is that the Gunslingers clan is just as active as ever. Why? Well, because our entire group is composed of folks who juggle real life with our love of gaming. It is amazing how well things work when everyone can relate!
Anyway, here are some recent, general updates taking place within the Gunslingers that you all may be interested in:
Member Spotlight - The GS clan is all about the members, which is why we periodically pick an active member at random to publish an interview in our blog. September's edition features our sci-fi loving members, GS*Gaz_Bot! Find out more about his thirst for science fiction, tattoos, and microbrews: http://gunslingergaming.com/wordpress/?p=566
Official Gunslingers Twitch.tv Channel - We have been featuring the live streaming channels of GS members for some time. Now, we have created an official Gunslinger Gaming channel in which all interested members can broadcast from...creating a channel composed of gaming content from around the world!
Football Season Tribute - American pro and college level football has begun and, as a tribute, we have added a football highscore game to our custom and ever growing Gunslinger Arcade! It is a great way to kill some time (preferably while the boss isn't looking) when we can't be in-game!
Gunslinger Gaming Podcast - If you haven't had a chance to listen to Episode Six of our hilarious podcast, take a listen! It is like other gaming podcasts...but with beer.
New Memberships Keep Coming! - Normally, the gaming community doesn't go into overdrive until the Fall and Winter times of the year. That may be true, but people keep signing up with the Gunslingers in the meantime! We are proud to provide an oasis for 129 new members during the month of August! Welcome aboard and thank you all for joining!
If you have read the above and our gaming group sounds like your type of brew, you are invited to join the Gunslingers! Finally, there is a place exclusively for older, casual gamers. Unite!

There has a been a tradition at the Gunslingers that have been visited for some time. I mean, of course, of New Member Shout-Outs. From time to time, it is important to let all our new members, which GS receives on a daily basis, know that we appreciate their willingness to sign up with the Gunslingers and make their gaming experience exclusively with fellow older gamers.
Without using up binary coding further, here are the green horn Gunslinger members who signed up with us in just the first 17 days of September 2013:
WELCOME TO THE GUNSLINGERS, AND THANK YOU ALL FOR JOINING!!!
That is 47 new members in just 17 days! As we get ready for a busy Fall season at the Gunslingers, this is a great example of just how active a community you will be part of if you join us.
If you would like to make your gaming experience exclusively with older gamers, simply visit our clan's site and register in our forums. We would love to make room for you!

The console port of the game is a lot of fun. There is just so much hacking and slashing to do together on the expansive dungeons of Diablo III! Hit the ground running (perhaps literally) while playing the game online by joining up and swapping in-game contacts exclusively with fellow older, casual gamers! The Gunslingers group has had MANY adults just like you add themselves to our Master Lists, so the Diablo III online party will be going around the clock for us!
Get registered. Add yourself to our Diablo 3 roster. Swap contacts. It's that simple!
In Other News....
I also have a few more general Gunslingers updates to share with the rest of you, so here they are:
Advanced Twitch.tv Support - All Gunslinger members can now, through a simple tag, add a Twitch.tv status bar to any of their posts or signatures on the Gunslinger Gaming forums! It is a fantastic and quick way to let all fellow members know when you are broadcasting live. This new feature is in addition to the ability to embed your live broadcasts into any posts you make within the GS Forums. You even have the choice of sharing your own Twitch.tv account or, to get more views, stream directly to the official Gunslingers Twitch Channel!
Halloween Arcade Month - A new Halloween themed game will be installed into the custom and ever growing Gunslingers Arcade throughout the entire month of October! We are even offering a bit of a preview of the Halloween celebration at GS via the game "Endless Zombie Attack!" Aim for the head. Aim for the highscore.
Thank you for taking the time to read the latest news happening at the largest and most active clan for parent and hard working adult gamers.

Frosty Pints takes place on Friday and Saturday evenings, which actually means all day Friday and Saturday due to having members from time zones across the globe. (Quite the bender, huh!?) The busiest times tend to be from 3:00pm PST and on.

Some incredible milestones occurred lately, Gunslingers, and we all should be proud of them!
First, the overall Gunslingers clan is officially over 7,000 registered members strong! The days of believing that gaming is just for kids and the overtly competitive are long, long gone.
Second, we gained 134 new members in just the first seven days of October! That is a new record! To everyone who can count themselves among that extraordinary number, welcome aboard and thank you for joining! To every single other member, thank you for making the Gunslingers a place so inviting and helpful that our group attracts so many fellow mature, casual gamers!
Third, one of the said new members is a professional musician. GS*Brewski has been kind enough to add six of his songs to the Gunslinger Gaming Jukebox! If you haven't heard of our Jukebox, it is our on-site playlist comprised exclusively by music created by fellow Gunslinger members! To find out more about his and other members' music, check out this announcement: GunslingerGaming.com • View topic - Songs by GS*Brewski Added to Gunslinger Jukebox!
If you are a fellow adult who is still on the fence about whether or not to join the most active group for older gamers, I invite you to take a look around our group's homebase. Nearly all of the content is public because we have nothing to hide. Read how our members treat each other. Read how they are just like you: a person who just wants to have a good, uncomplicated time gaming with folks his/her own age. If you like what you see, join us! It's that simple!

I have some exciting news to share on our front. It is apparent that players can stream live footage of themselves gaming, and so we have created a new feature on the Gunslinger Gaming site to accommodate that need!
Gunslinger Gaming now has a Live Feed site page!
Now, on the top navigational bar of all GS site pages (including the forum), you will see a link called "Live Feed." That will bring you to our new page! If you wish to try out what I am talking about directly from this post, here is the link in question: GS Twitch
You can even scroll through icons of all the participating members to see who is or is not currently broadcasting before selecting anyone from the drop-down menu. You can refresh the icons to see if anyone has just logged in without disrupting the current stream you are watching or the chat window!
If you are interested in streaming live gameplay, please share your Twitch account in THIS TOPIC. Any replies to that topic will be added to the Live Feed webpage.

In my last update-orientated post, I announced the Gunslingers new feature that helps members of our group to gather more hits to their live gameplay broadcasts and to help everyone easily reference who is currently streaming live.
The GS Twitch Page has been enhanced even further since that initial announcement in two ways:
1.) Users can now refresh the list of status icons without needing to refresh the entire page so not to disrupt whatever feed you are currently watching or closing the chat window.
2.) In addition to being able to chat in the Gunslingers text chat while watching your favorite feeds, you can also send live messages to the broadcaster while he/she is streaming.
In another update, we have installed a new trivia game, "Trivia Blitz," into our custom and ever expanding Gunslingers Arcade. See how much you know while hitting that highscore list. We know that we can't always be in-game with each other, so the Gunslingers clan makes sure that there are plenty of ways to keep busy within the GS clan regardless of platform access.
The above features are mere examples of the sort of activity going on within the Gunslingers. We strive to make the gaming experience for fellow mature, casual gamers fulfilling and a true oasis from the typical negativity found throughout the larger gaming community. If you share the same wants, you are invited to join us!

To all my United States clanmates, I hope you had a good Thanksgiving! I, for one, will be eating left-over turkey sandwiches for the next month. If you can shake awake from your turkey coma yet, you may wish to share in reading the following message with the rest of our global Gunslingers army:
FROSTY PINTS!
We welcome you to join in on the premiere event here at Gunslingers entitled Frosty Pints!

I am sure that, as you scan for the taglines "mature," "parent", and "adult" you see several clans pop up. All of us claiming to be an excellent home for you, a person who wants to game exclusively with an older crowd. But, what does that mean? I am sure a few of you reading this have checked out a mature proclaiming group and found it, instead, plagued with an adolescent approach to structure, a pension for drama, and a proportion of under age members.
The Gunslingers clan is different.
When we say we are a group for the mature, casual gamer, we mean it. All you need to do is to take any given snapshot of our community. Take today, for example. Our group is celebrating ten member birthdays on December 6th, 2013. Do you know what is the average age of those members? It isn't 18, that is for sure. Rather, the average age of the Gunslinger members celebrating birthdays today is 37.
So, if you are looking for a clan that truly caters to an older crowd that likes to kick its feet up after work and enjoy some rounds of games (and, perhaps, drinks) with gamers their own age, you are invited to join the Gunslingers!

The time to say "good riddance" to another week of deadlines and hovering bosses by celebrating the arrival of the weekend of playing games with friends. I am, of course, speaking of the Gunslingers Frosty Pints! You are welcome to join in on the fun! Stop by our group's homebase and check us out. If you like what you see, sign up! It is as simple as that! Why should anyone be telling you that it needs to be more complicated than that?
In other news, we have debuted our Gunslinger Gazette, the weekly newsletter that summarize fun clan and member updates for that week. It is a great way to keep abreast with everything that is happening on our own Western frontier and enjoy other bits of information like member interviews, podcasts, and articles. We kicked off the premiere edition last Sunday, and you can read it for yourself at the following link: http://gunslingergaming.com/wordpress/?p=584

If you are fellow older gamer who just MAY have gotten a particular console (wink) under a holiday tree this week, you are invited to join the Gunslingers. We know exactly what is like to wish to keep one's gaming experience mature and with folks who share the same sort of family along with work obligations. We (our overall clan) are entering the New Year with nearly 8,000 members just like you, so why not get the most out of your gaming experience?

Another New Year celebration has passed, and that means that it is time for the 2013 edition of the Gunslinger Games Awards!
Every year since 2009, we collectively cast our votes for our favorite games released during the 2013 calendar year and publish the results in the Gunslinger Gazette. To find your voting booth link, merely sign into your GS Forum account and view the Index page: http://www.gunslingergaming.com/phpbb/index.php
You will see this link near the top of the forums (just under the Chat Preview):
Click the link next to it, and CAST YOUR VOTES!
We are going Blackjack this time around with twenty-one voting categories, which are all optional. We all have until the end of January 2014 to participate. If you are curious which games won in previous years, here are the direct links to each set of results:
With in game clans coming in patch 2.0, is gunslingers going to start a guild in D3?
Yep! I already had at least one member volunteering to get things going on GS's behalf, so it is all about relaying the correct information to the rest of the members.
Kicking it old school.
Isn't there a certain ring to it? To me, there is a lot going on in that short phrase. It seems to suggest good times. Getting together with friends. Laughing until your (beer) gut hurts. Hanging out with an older crowd with some history and sly looks. Being laid back. Being casual. Being friendly. Feeling like you can be yourself. Feeling like everyone is on your side.
They might as well be saying, "Kicking it Gunslingers."
Gunslingers is the most active clan out there just for us older, casual gamers. Leave your kill/death ratio comparisons at the door. Delete those lengthy clan applications. Let's just have some damn fun. It is gaming, right? Well, come join us in-game!

The clan exclusively for us older folks has ramped up our commitment to getting adults, parents, and mature, casual gamers a network of players outside of the typical tirade of squeakers, group obligations, and competitive drama. Let's just have fun!
That is why we have added special "Friends" usergroups to the GunslingerGaming Forums. Simply add yourself to the niche usergroups that best suits you, and you will receive notifications every ten days of all the newest folks who have added themselves to our dynamic Master Lists. This is another step we are taking to promote game contact exchanging between veteran and greenhorn GS members alike!
If you are looking for a gaming experience where hierarchy takes a back seat while good times rides shotgun (perhaps I need to rethink that metaphor....), join the Gunslingers! We are old school.
How old school?
Put it this way, this is our idea of spawn camping:
It has been awhile since we have shared a newsletter-style update in this recruiting thread. Let's change that! This installment will focus on highlights ripped directly from our Gunslinger Gazette, the blog where we publish community-minded updates and spotlights just for our fellow Gunslinger members.
Member Spotlight - Recently, we have sat down and taken the time to learn more about our long time GS friend, VykkDraygo. He originally was active in the clan way back 2008/2009, but has returned in full force by the end of 2013. Find out what he has been up to in the meantime, his Superbowl predictions, and his thoughts on how the Gunslingers have grown in the last few years!
The Gunslingers Group is Over 8,000 Members Strong; Friend Usergroups to the Rescue! - We are starting off 2014 with over 8,000 fellow older gamers as Gunslinger members, and we show no sign of slowing down! As awesome as that collective feat is, we aren't about the numbers. We are about getting mature, casual gamers the gaming experience they so desire. That is why the Gunslingers are increasing our efforts to get new members in-game with the rest of the clan. Thus, the Gunslingers Friend Usergroups are born! Now, any member who adds themselves to an usergroup that best reflects their category of gaming wants, will be sent notifications every ten days outlining all the newest members who have added themselves to Master Lists that are of those categories. When we say, 'More the merrier!," we meant it.
Gunslinger Games Awards Poll Close Soon; Game of the Year Category Added! - Existing and potential Gunslinger members alike, you only have one more day to cast your votes in twenty-one different Gunslinger Games Awards polls. It is an annual tradition at GS for members to come together and vote on their favorite games. Based on the votes already coming in these categories, a "Game of the Year" poll has been added. Be heard before it is too late! An article style awards show will be published in the Gunslinger Gazette in February.
Gunslingers Voice Chat Server - In case you missed it, Gunslingers has a registered Ventrilo voice chat server for any of our members who find other options, such as Skype, too resource heavy while gaming.
New Podcast Episode Published! - The Gunslinger Gaming Podcast returns with another episode last week. This episode, the ninth such episode, features Filoofo, Dunkaroo, Freddy, Tick, and McMurphy. We discuss the Best Sellers of 2013 among other recent gaming news. The podcast is available as a local download, on iTunes, and via Podomatic. You can even subscribe to our own custom made RSS feed just for the podcast!
B-B-Bulletholes! - Every year that a Gunslinger is a member of the clan, they are given a bullet hole attached to the GunslingerGaming Forum account. As part of the celebration for the most active members receiving such an anniversary marker, we give them a very public shout-out on a monthly basis in the Gunslinger Gazette!
Thank you for taking the time to read this edition of the Gunslingers Newsletter. These are only examples of the vast amount of activity taking place within the Gunslingers clan, and you are invited to join in on the fun. If you are parent and/or adult gamer looking for a group that focuses on keeping one's gaming experience fun, casual, and always within your own time restraints, you will find no clan more dedicated to that goal than the Gunslingers.

As previously mentioned, the Gunslingers clan got together and, throughout the entire month of January, cast our collective votes on what were our favorite gaming experiences in 2013. This is the fifth year for this tradition, and everyone is welcome to read the official results!
A sincere congratulations must be given for the following awards won that are most relevant to this recruiting thread:

The 2014 Winter Olympics are over. I don't know about the rest of you, but I was glued to the television (or internet feeds) during the entire event. Just like living it up in game, the Gunslingers forums and chats were full of GS members from Finland, Australia, Norway, Denmark, United States, Canada, Scotland, England, and several other regions of the globe discussing the Olympics. Amazingly enough, it done with good cheer, mutual respect, and laughter.
Case in point: During the hours of a particular Frosty Pints (i.e.: the community-wide celebration of the weekend with drinks and online matches), GS*Sosyc posted the following animated image in the forums:
And that is what a gaming clan should be about. Good times. Leave the competitive drama and stat boosting for the other groups. Rather, it is about having fun on your own terms and on your own schedule. It is about laughing. It is about comradery between friends, new and old, regardless of what nation you hail from.

We have all heard that old saying, right? Sometimes, the truth hits home in unexpected ways. I have known some of the Gunslingers and have had enduring friendships with them for years. I have known them as they graduated college. When they tied the knot with their significant others. When they have had to put down the controller a bit more as new fathers. It is incredible to think how fast time can fly and how many great memories can be had when in a good, solid gaming group.
Clans get a bad reputation. Sometimes, it is well earned, right? The drama. The competitive angst. The sense that you are valued more for how much you can take orders than your willingness to share in a good laugh during rounds of frosty pints.
The Gunslingers is a clan for mature, casual gamers. We are about knocking a few back while gaming with new and old friends, alike. And you are invited to join in on the good cheer!

Hi, this clan looks like my kind of thing, I'm a soon to be parent with a few hours a day that I can get online. I pretty much only play D3. I live in Korea though which is GMT+8, but I'm sure I could give some people with irregular hours a game. I'll look you up when I get home from work.

When we say we are a group for the mature, casual gamer, we mean it. All you need to do is to take any given snapshot of our community. Take today, for example. Our group is celebrating ten member birthdays on December 6th, 2013. Do you know what is the average age of those members? It isn't 18, that is for sure. Rather, the average age of the Gunslinger members celebrating birthdays today is 37.
So, if you are looking for a clan that truly caters to an older crowd that likes to kick its feet up after work and enjoy some rounds of games (and, perhaps, drinks) with gamers their own age, you are invited to join the Gunslingers!

The time to say "good riddance" to another week of deadlines and hovering bosses by celebrating the arrival of the weekend of playing games with friends. I am, of course, speaking of the Gunslingers Frosty Pints! You are welcome to join in on the fun! Stop by our group's homebase and check us out. If you like what you see, sign up! It is as simple as that! Why should anyone be telling you that it needs to be more complicated than that?
In other news, we have debuted our Gunslinger Gazette, the weekly newsletter that summarize fun clan and member updates for that week. It is a great way to keep abreast with everything that is happening on our own Western frontier and enjoy other bits of information like member interviews, podcasts, and articles. We kicked off the premiere edition last Sunday, and you can read it for yourself at the following link:

With in game clans coming in patch 2.0, is gunslingers going to start a guild in D3?
Isn't there a certain ring to it? To me, there is a lot going on in that short phrase. It seems to suggest good times. Getting together with friends. Laughing until your (beer) gut hurts. Hanging out with an older crowd with some history and sly looks. Being laid back. Being casual. Being friendly. Feeling like you can be yourself. Feeling like everyone is on your side.
They might as well be saying, "Kicking it Gunslingers."
Gunslingers is the most active clan out there just for us older, casual gamers. Leave your kill/death ratio comparisons at the door. Delete those lengthy clan applications. Let's just have some damn fun. It is gaming, right? Well, come join us in-game!

Fellow Gunslingers!
The clan exclusively for us older folks has ramped up our commitment to getting adults, parents, and mature, casual gamers a network of players outside of the typical tirade of squeakers, group obligations, and competitive drama. Let's just have fun!
That is why we have added special "Friends" usergroups to the GunslingerGaming Forums. Simply add yourself to the niche usergroups that best suits you, and you will receive notifications every ten days of all the newest folks who have added themselves to our dynamic Master Lists. This is another step we are taking to promote game contact exchanging between veteran and greenhorn GS members alike!
If you are looking for a gaming experience where hierarchy takes a back seat while good times rides shotgun (perhaps I need to rethink that metaphor....), join the Gunslingers! We are old school.
How old school?
Put it this way, this is our idea of spawn camping:

It has been awhile since we have shared a newsletter-style update in this recruiting thread. Let's change that! This installment will focus on highlights ripped directly from our Gunslinger Gazette, the blog where we publish community-minded updates and spotlights just for our fellow Gunslinger members.
Member Spotlight - Recently, we have sat down and taken the time to learn more about our long time GS friend, VykkDraygo. He originally was active in the clan way back 2008/2009, but has returned in full force by the end of 2013. Find out what he has been up to in the meantime, his Superbowl predictions, and his thoughts on how the Gunslingers have grown in the last few years!
The Gunslingers Group is Over 8,000 Members Strong; Friend Usergroups to the Rescue! - We are starting off 2014 with over 8,000 fellow older gamers as Gunslinger members, and we show no sign of slowing down! As awesome as that collective feat is, we aren't about the numbers. We are about getting mature, casual gamers the gaming experience they so desire. That is why the Gunslingers are increasing our efforts to get new members in-game with the rest of the clan. Thus, the Gunslingers Friend Usergroups are born! Now, any member who adds themselves to an usergroup that best reflects their category of gaming wants, will be sent notifications every ten days outlining all the newest members who have added themselves to Master Lists that are of those categories. When we say, 'More the merrier!," we meant it.
Gunslinger Games Awards Poll Close Soon; Game of the Year Category Added! - Existing and potential Gunslinger members alike, you only have one more day to cast your votes in twenty-one different Gunslinger Games Awards polls. It is an annual tradition at GS for members to come together and vote on their favorite games. Based on the votes already coming in these categories, a "Game of the Year" poll has been added. Be heard before it is too late! An article style awards show will be published in the Gunslinger Gazette in February.
Gunslingers Voice Chat Server - In case you missed it, Gunslingers has a registered Ventrilo voice chat server for any of our members who find other options, such as Skype, too resource heavy while gaming.
New Podcast Episode Published! - The Gunslinger Gaming Podcast returns with another episode last week. This episode, the ninth such episode, features Filoofo, Dunkaroo, Freddy, Tick, and McMurphy. We discuss the Best Sellers of 2013 among other recent gaming news. The podcast is available as a local download, on iTunes, and via Podomatic. You can even subscribe to our own custom made RSS feed just for the podcast!
B-B-Bulletholes! - Every year that a Gunslinger is a member of the clan, they are given a bullet hole attached to the GunslingerGaming Forum account. As part of the celebration for the most active members receiving such an anniversary marker, we give them a very public shout-out on a monthly basis in the Gunslinger Gazette!
Thank you for taking the time to read this edition of the Gunslingers Newsletter. These are only examples of the vast amount of activity taking place within the Gunslingers clan, and you are invited to join in on the fun. If you are parent and/or adult gamer looking for a group that focuses on keeping one's gaming experience fun, casual, and always within your own time restraints, you will find no clan more dedicated to that goal than the Gunslingers.

Case in point: During the hours of a particular Frosty Pints (i.e.: the community-wide celebration of the weekend with drinks and online matches), GS*Sosyc posted the following animated image in the forums:
And that is what a gaming clan should be about. Good times. Leave the competitive drama and stat boosting for the other groups. Rather, it is about having fun on your own terms and on your own schedule. It is about laughing. It is about comradery between friends, new and old, regardless of what nation you hail from.

We have all heard that old saying, right? Sometimes, the truth hits home in unexpected ways. I have known some of the Gunslingers and have had enduring friendships with them for years. I have known them as they graduated college. When they tied the knot with their significant others. When they have had to put down the controller a bit more as new fathers. It is incredible to think how fast time can fly and how many great memories can be had when in a good, solid gaming group.
Clans get a bad reputation. Sometimes, it is well earned, right? The drama. The competitive angst. The sense that you are valued more for how much you can take orders than your willingness to share in a good laugh during rounds of frosty pints.
The Gunslingers is a clan for mature, casual gamers. We are about knocking a few back while gaming with new and old friends, alike. And you are invited to join in on the good cheer!
