Clans Forum?

[Iggy]

To the devs, and admins:

Is there a chance of getting a forum for FF clans? Nothing super-special, or anything...just an area where clans based in FF can post messages, and potential players can see what clans are available and their contact information. I'll offer to admin it, if you want me to.

I know that most league-clans have websites of their own, but it would be nice to have all the info available in a convenient place.
(Obviously, non-league clans would be welcome in the forum as well. I think it bad form to exclude clans just because they are of a more casual variety than super-serious).

Not a bad idea. Most games websites have this. Its good for recruiting and such.

I asked for this a couple months ago.... :/

Thanks for bringing back to attention.

AND

I would like to see Mapping expanded some.

Perhaps:

Mapping
Lua
Released Maps

Just to seperate things into specialties a bit more. Chat has 1 section... that should be fine, all offtopic posts can fit into one area. General has six, more than enough and each is focused where it should be. But Mapping has *1* section? It is much, much more complex than that and I hate seeing legimate questions getting bumped down because there is so much activity there.

Lua is its own beast, for sure... it should definitely have its own section. Mapping can just be for general stuff. At the very least, Released Maps is a must. I would like to see it run like the beta forums (each FF official map has its own thread, and no new threads are to be made...). When a map is released, a moderator should create a thread for it and basically have it so people can not create new threads in that area. It would clean up and organize discusison on released maps.

Yeah....finding released maps is getting to be a pain.

Not a forum section, lets make a web site so we can get direct downloads to a commonly used web site such as fpsbanana or something. Have someone on the Dev team to be responsible for uploading these maps to the map page, so when someone comes out with a map, they have to request that it be added to the map download page, and after the Dev plays it, or reviews it to make sure it's a completed map, he can then upload it to the server.

that way we don't have to scour the internet for new FF maps or search through the pages of the forum and hope we can find a working download link. I hate broken links.

I'm sorry but that just made me laugh! Reall though, that's a great idea, but I think they should outsource within the forums for a web-master...I think they are already slipping with the amount of stuff they have to do.
