I don't know if everyone knows about this site yet, but I don't think I've ever looked forward to a site going up as much as I have for this one! I think it's about time to post some questions to the creators of the place...

Is it going to be a clan ladder similar to Team Compete or just a place for clans to meet and challenge eachother??? I know that you guys will be hosting clan forums and all that... We need detials... DETAILS!!!

Til Chaotic getts to this, I'll put my words in now.

For those that know of Team Compete, or at least have heard about it - it's a site for clans - or non clan members - to compete on a huge ladder and see what team or member is the best. This ranges throughout all XBL games, but have the highest popularity in RS3, CS, GR and Sport games.

TC's site, though, is molasses and is not user friendly one bit. So the Syndicate is going to come up with a way to top it - we have someone working on a homemade ladder script and LynxFX working on the front page for us (I believe - haven't heard from him in a bit). Once this is setup, we're going to launch with a RS3 tourney :)

Features of the site incl -

Vbulletin 3 forums - many new features on this new forum software that will provide full interactivity talking within the community
Full out competition using the ladder scripts to challenge teams
flash games on the forums
custom skins for each clan to use in the forums
forums made for each clan -they will have their own section on the site basically
Each team will have a leader and 2 cohorts to help them out with scheduling

There's alot more - but I'm a bit groggy right now - any questions (besides that it will launch within the month hopefully)

...probably the best people to give you an overview are Casper, Chaotic Mage, and Jafo232 or just Jafo... they probably have the best overall knowledge of the site...

I want to be the first to sign up! It sounds so damn awesome... I'm crapping my pants with excitment as we speak!

Anyway, are non clan members going to be able to access clan forums? Is each clan going to be limited to only one forum? Who will be doing these custom clan skins??

I gotta change my undies.

Anyone will be able to access the site but the specfic forums based for each clan will only be accessable by those clan members. The site will be a clan ladder, that's a portion of the site we are waiting on. Then the main front page will start to get made. The forums are pretty much complete with a few things that need to be added on.


More updates soon!

Hopefully i'll be able to work on the forums a lot more next week so i can say they are 100% complete. I would say they are about 90% complete.

Non clan members will NOT be able to access the clan forums or even see them, so it won't cluster the forum page - ladder/challenges discussions will be in another section in the forum.

As far as the skins go (and team banner), we could give the team a skin pack to have them make their own skins or we can do them - we will be totally overwhelmed by making skins, so we would like to have their team do one if possible. We have 3 skins up right now that are kick ass.

Soon son - soon - I'll put up a screen shot of the skins that we have now - so u can drool :)

Just curious...what kind of rights do each clan have? I mean...basically they are putting their trust into this forum that what they say will not be read by anybody but them...


Will they have to worry about mods? Will this be their own forum? Will they have to pay a small fee to use the forum? How does this work?

They won't have to worry about anyone but Admins - like here at XBA - there's stuff that you guys can't see that I can - which is what I'll be doing with the permissions.

As far as the fees - none required, but we will be seeking donations to help with bandwidth.

If a team complains that they think someone is viewing their forums, me or Chaotic will look into it -but we're the only admins and it will stay that way.

i beleive the members of the clan will moderate their own section of the forums and only the admin of the site like casper or chaotic can check in every once in a while to make sure nothing fishy is going on, but agian, i dont know much about it.


EDIT: casper beat me to it.

It's amazing how advertising threads are perfectly fine for CC, SYN, or DDC, but no one else.

Yes, but I already spoke to Stephen about this and he had no problem with it - at least I went through the proper steps to do it.

Of course it's okay with Stephen. All of these clans/sites are basically other names for XBA.

I knew you'd be in here. You don't bother to post at this site (and never really have bothered to) unless it concerned DDC or SYN or whatever the hell your name is now.

Back in the CSX days Stephen linked my site, it was advertized inn the chat for a week straight... Plus I can put a link to my clan site in my sig, which sticks with me every post, so I'm pretty happy with that :D

THREE CHEERS FOR UNSTRUCTURED ASSUMPTIONS WITH NO SUPPORT WHATSOEVER!

HIP HIP...HOORAY!

Trust me, if I thrived to be in a clan (any clan), I'd be in one by now. In fact, I don't even have Xbox Live anymore, so jealousy doesn't benefit me.

Try again, friend. :)

...1st right off the bat we aint friends... lets just clear that up real fast...

..2nd the proof is in this thread...

.3rd back to the topic at hand before you decided to Hi Jack it for your own selfish purpose...

Clan Council will be sick... Private Forums... as well as Public... Ladder Rankings... Flash Games... and many other features... Reviews News etc.. Already between Caper Jafo and Magey great things have been done... Also the Graphics Team of AITD No Fear and I believe Lynx...

.. the best will be the the skins options.. but you will need to wither probably do that on your end or have someone do it for you...

Okay, friend. :)

..2nd the proof is in this thread...

The proof that I'm a tattle tale is in this thread. Interesting. Who am I tattling to? This thread was authorized and approved by a higher authority. Generally speaking, a tattle tale tells a higher authority about something bad or frowned upon. So by calling me a tattle tale, you admit this thread shouldn't have been made, correct?

.3rd back to the topic at hand before you decided to Hi Jack it for your own selfish purpose...

My own selfish purpose? How does me "hijacking" this thread benefit me? Seriously, I'm curious to know how.

I've talked to Casper about it, and I've decided to drop it, admitting that I may have been a bit hasty after Casper explained his reasoning as to why this thread isn't really advertising.

Wow. Sometimes when I sit back and think about the large amount of stupid people in the world, it makes my brain hurt.

My threads concerning Kill Bill have so much to do with the topic at hand, don't they Kortiz? Again, keep trying. Maybe someday you'll learn. Hey, at least I'm hopeful. :)

I'm saying in about a month - Jafo is uber busy working on his real job and we only have the forums set, but they will be up at least 2 weeks before the site launches hopefully.

This Saturday is something else skeez, don't spread rumors, I have enough people bothering me :)
