I don't think he was refering to a gang sign but a customized clan tag. I don't think it will work ingame but for the ladders or something it would look original as long as its readable. 5 may be a little to much, but 3 is to little I think. I guess 4 is a good compromise, but it does need atleast one additional character from where it's at now.

Those are some pretty good ideas. I have thought about some of them myself every now n' then.

Thanks, I appreciate that. What ideas did you have? I made this thread so we could all share cool ideas to help our clans expand and such. The only thing I am extremly foward on is getting an ingame ranking system for matches anyway we can.

having a message pop up in the message box at the top of the screen saying ______ has logged on would be nice. also you should be able to assign co-leaders who can invite and remove, but cant disband the clan. Also clan the clan should have the message board able to be posted on by EVERY member, but you can only modify what you wrote. so its easier to keep in contact, or if you need to tell another member something and isnt online.

I like your ideas, but when your in the middle of a game do you really want a pop up saying so and so has come online? That sounds the the window on AIM that pops up when someone comes on and off....I disabled that hehe. Maybe if it just shows up where the chat bar is?

Also with the messaging, thats more of a news page for the leader to post on. Co-leaders sound awsome and I hope that catches on. Good ideas man.

There aren't a lot of topics talking about the advancement of Clans in S3. Theres a lot of work to be done on them, I think. I realize a lot of my ideas probably won't happen but I'd like to hear everyone else's ideas for clans. I know we can probably all agree on the in-game clan record and ladder position. That has been needed since S1. Any other ideas out there? Share them here!

I don't think co-leaders should have that much power.. because they could just remove everyone and it would be the same as just disbanding it. But maybe if not every member could post, then the co-leader could add stuff to the clan messages.

Well, I don't think anyone who gets awarded position of Co-leader would do something like that. He is obviously well known and respected within the clan and I don't think minor arguements would force him/her to destroy the clan. I believe Co-leaders is a great idea. When you look at someone's stats it could show the co-leader tag next to your name like the elader one shows now.

the whole practice option sounds stupid to me no offense or anything but i jsut dont like the idea like all the others tho... My idea for clan matches is that when someone is making the room can check the option for clan match and for the number of players...

What do you mean exactly. As it stands you can choose options for any game. Players, weapon restrictions (by type), rounds, and maps. I don't know what you are getting at. The practice is a bit over the top, I agree. It's unfair to have clan specific servers that do not count towards rank to practice tactics. Anyway, please try to explain what you mean a little more thouroughly BigPimp. Thank you for your contribution!
