I remember fbim4. I banned him, and I got a lot of newly registered people PMing saying they are his friends. I wonder if they weren't actually HIM, I never checked the IP's...
Anyway, we should get back to the clan proposals. I suppose Elfen is trying to get high posting people on the committee?
Oh and it seems I left something out earlier, mostly because I had thought it unnecessary at the time.
A clan forum is not for discussing news, games, movies, books, sports that's what the regular forum is for. A clan forum is more of as side project I mean, you don't even have to be part of it.
Most clans forum on sites I have seen are for interclan debates and compititons. Not for talking about announcements and to have them free of spam and flood.
If any of you have that idea, it sure didn't come from me, I didn't say anything about posting news without new comers flooding the crap out of it.
I did say they can't flood and spam the section as a whole. Some one you are sort of jumping to conclusions about what this section is for. It is most definitely not for you to post WWI Teaser 5 threads and not have them get filled up by new comers posting images and offering no real value to the thread.

I haven't begun any deliberations into who I would want as a commitee member as of yet. Sure I have a few ideas, and yes they are people with fairly high post counts, but A clan forum hasn't even been made official yet. It's still an idea.
Pretty sure you have to give people a chance to objectto something before you do it.

-Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. To obtain, something of equal value must be lost. That is alchemy's First Law of Equivalent Exchange. In those days, we really believed that to be the world's one, and only, truth.
Well, the way I looked at this forum is basically a single section (e.g., no divisions) for serious, long-term discussions. E.g., if someone does want to discuss WWI, it's just one thread, and it's only the members of that forum, so it wouldn't ever get as flooded, and, members who were accepted into that committee are not rule-breakers or at least not too big ones.
It more of a sub set of forum users. with their own section to discuss things. Yeah that sounds all secratory and secretive, but that's how they work.

Pretty much the nail on the head there.
Perhaps we could include a new RP about the Zakarum priesthood.
People aren't to keen on RP in general here just yet it seems. I would prefer the RP section we have get bigger first beofre considering another one be made, anywhere.

i want to start a real diablo 3 clan, exlporer thought of this name i thought it was awsome "Always to the East" ATTE.
max members of 20, with a pres, vice pres, sec of state, and sec of pub relations.
if anyone is interested message me.
Don't post this in Site Suggestions and Questions. Post this in Diablo II: LoD or General/Off Topic.
Also, Elfen, I dropped out of the RP because it didn't take place in the Diablo universe, and it confused me, so I think a Zakarum RP would be more successful.

It's the decisions you make when you have no time to make them that define who you are.
I hear you loud and clear Elfen, I actually am glad it isn't about announcements and stuff because, I honestly don't participate much in the conversations.

I am not a fan of Jazz music.
on a good day.... Optimistic and freedom-loving Jovial
and good-humored Honest and straightforward
Intellectual and philosophical
On a bad day.... Blindly optimistic and careless
Irresponsible and superficial Tactless and restless
Also, Elfen, I dropped out of the RP because it didn't take place in the Diablo universe, and it confused me, so I think a Zakarum RP would be more successful.
Prehaps it would, and I do like the idea of a Zakarum based RP. My only concern is I don't see why it should be limited only to the forum clan.
We have a whole section for RPing. Others are free to make they own if they want, they don't have to use mine.
I am afraid of RP threads because I never truly participated in one.
That is cool. Some like them some don't.
The main problem I have with them is they take up a bit of room. 4 threads minimum. Usually. 1. cHaracter thread (where you make a character), 2. World Info (wherein the nature of the world in which you will be playing is explained to you (along with a few rules)) 3. Out of Character thread (where you discuss the goings on of the thread or other stuff while not in character) and 4. the story thread (where you play your character).
4 threads in one section. That's kind of a lot.

Me neither, but I think the a concrete foundation like the Zakarum church may provide a more comfortable and more quest oriented RP in which to post in. Instead of a hodgepodge of characters from different games.

If we are the Travincal then it would only make sense that the zakarum RP be placed there.
Travincal is a name of a city. The Zakarum and Kurastans are it's residents.
The clan forum is really for discussing issues or debating, long, lengthy posts, deep insightful ones. I am in no way counting out a Zakarum, or even a Diablo based RP. I just feel it better suited to be in the RP section.
What if someone of the populus is a good RPer, but new here, they would have to wait for however long until the reached the requirements, PM a mod to ask for the application, fill it out, send it back wait to be accepted, then make a character.
I don't know how well some of you are at storywriting, but it's hard t owork in new characters after threads have already began, look at my thread/s. It's not the easiest. I do ok at it, as RP is somewhat of a forte, but let us propse that I am not the Dungeon Master (DM) for the Zakarum RP. I imagine it might prove hard for who ever it was that was running it.

I just like the idea of an RP for that particular forum. I don't think there is a big demand in RP's anyway.
Not right now no. I guess not.
I just thought it would be nice for it to be a perk of the exclusive thread (if one is imposed).
We are getting slightly ahead of ourselves, here, we don't even have a clan forum. We should concertrate on that first, then decide if we want any little bonuses, like RP threads.
So how/when are you guys going to make that committee and who do you want to see in it?
Well naturally it would be fair to say I would make rank. As would a handful of other moderators and admins I would imagine. I am not saying all mods and admins, but they would be familiar with forum policy and how things work from the mods perspective.
I would then look to any member of forum who has had some experience in moderation and/or administration before.
But before I can do that, I would need the clan section.

I should probably stop being off topic....
