AVF Band of Brothers (BoBs): PART III

chalkywhyte · 14-09-2009, 12:04 PM

THE CLAN IS NOW FULL SO WE WONT BE ACCEPTING ANY MORE MEMBERS UNTIL THERE IS SPACE

AVF BAND OF BROTHERS INFORMATION

***ABOUT THE CLAN***

AVF Band of Brothers is a 32 member clan/gaming group formed from former members of the AVF K-Zone Killzone clan and other AV Forum members.

Though there will still be a clan element to us i.e. Killzone 2, COD, MAG and future games that support it. We set this up mainly to game as a group.

We are a clan who are all about fun, friendly games and banter. But to keep the spirit of competition alive within us all. We also like to get serious now and then.

We are active in quite a few games. New and old.

We like all our members to feel part of a large team that plays fair and has respect for other members as well as other clans.

***CLAN WEBSITE***

Big Thanks to Cooperman for getting the ball rolling, and a big

to Tall Paul for setting it up. We now have our own webspace.

Although we are all still active on here you will mainly find us over there chilling and catching up.

The Clan website will unfortunately be part locked to new members & guests.

But once you have passed the trial period then it will all be unlocked.

***CURRENTLY PLAYING***

Here is a list of the multiplayer games you will find the majority of us on at the moment.

Uncharted 2: Amongst Thieves - Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising - Need For Speed: Shift - MAG Beta Trial

***JOINING FAQ'S***

I Don't Want To Be Tied Into Any Clan Stuff. Can I Just Play Some Online Games With You Guys?

Sure no problem at all. Send out a few friend requests with AVF in the message. (we will ignore it unless it has this) If there's space in any games that we're on. You can come on in.

Whats All This Trial Stuff?

As we've had previous members wish to sign up and never been seen again. We have introduced a 2 week trial period to stop any time wasters jumping on the bandwagon. You will be invited to our website where you will start you're trial. Here we will judge how active you are on the site and on the PS3.

Sounds Fair Enough. I'd Like To Join. What Do I Have To Do?

We only ask for 3 things out of anyone wishing to join AVF Band of Brothers.
1. You are an active member on AVForums
2. You are willing to be an active member of the clan both on the PS3 and on the clan website aswell as having a presence on these forums. (After all it is the reason we're all together)
3. You treat others as you would wish to be treated yourself.

I'm Up For That. But I'm Not Very Good!!

Don't worry about your skill level!! In AVF Band of Brothers there is no need to be the best gamer out there. It’s all about getting involved in whatever games you can, and enjoying yourself.

Interesting. Do I Need A Headset?

Headsets aren't essential. But having one will help. Mainly so we can have some good banter and have a laugh with each other. But also so we can communicate information between ourselves on the PS3.

No Problem, Do I Have To Buy All The Games on Your Currently Playing List?

Of course not, that would cost you a fortune. As long as you’re involved in at least 1 of the games on the CURRENTLY PLAYING list and the clan thread then that’s fine. Obviously the more games you have from the list, The more you can get involved with.

What About Other Multiplayer Games That I Have But Aren't On The Info Post?

We all have a few games in our collections so just ask on our website. If we have then we may just catch you online with it.

Why Just 32 Members?

To help keep server space low and the website free of charge its alot easier to keep members numbers lower. Hence 32 members.

I'd like to sign up but the clan seems to be full.

Sorry about that. Don't worry as we monitor peoples involvement with the clan as to keep only active members. If someone asks to leave or is deemed inactive then they will be removed to free up space to allow new members like yourself to join us.

There's space. Sign Me Up!!!!

Before you join, just to re-iterate. All new members will have to take part in a 2 week trial. This is to ensure we have no time wasters and only active members in the group.

No problem at all. Where do i sign?

Good Choice my friend. Please PM our Recruitment/Members Officer Mister T 1976

We all look forward to seeing you online and on the site very soon.

Wait!! Where's The Clan Website?

Mister T 1976 will give you all the info you need once you have PM'ed him.

NOTE

Anyone wishing to join must PM Mister T 1976

No PM. No Entry.

We only have a maximum of 32 members at any one time.

So please PM Mister T 1976

This is to ensure we can keep the thread up to date with new members on trial and so we can keep a track of who wishes to join. And it also helps us with the clan website aswell.

Once the 32 member capacity has been reached we will not be having any trials or allowing any new members to join unfortunately.

Placing this limit on helps keep things together and helps us to function better as a group. As the saying goes "To many cooks spoil the broth"

Plus it makes running the clan alot easier with a set limit of members.

Aswell as keeping the website server space used to a minimum.

If you wish to join and there is no space available then keep checking back as we remove inactive members regularly.

Also note to all current members. If you are booted for being inactive. And you haven't PM'ed either myself or Mister T (either on here or on the website) saying that you will be inactive. You will be seen as a time waster and may not be allowed to re-join in the future.

THANK YOU

***CURRENT MEMBERS***

THE CLAN IS NOW FULL SO WE WONT BE ACCEPTING ANY MORE MEMBERS UNTIL THERE IS SPACE

Remember anyone wishing to join must PM Mister T 1976

No PM. No Entry.

Once this table is full we will not be accepting any new members what-so-ever

We as a group will always be monitoring peoples involvement.

If members are found to be inactive then be warned you will be turfed out to make room for possible new members.

We understand people have commitments. (Jobs, Families etc)
So If for any reason you may be AWOL for a bit please if possible let us know so we don’t boot you out by mistake.

A quick PM on the either website is all it takes.

***NEW MEMBERS***

We are only looking for members who are willing to be active on the PS3 and on the website, aswell as having a presence on here.
So all new members are required to show a form of commitment by taking part in a 2 week trial.

This is a list of new members who are currently on the 2 week trial.

If you have any questions about membership please feel free in sending either myself or Mister T 1976 a PM.

Tall_Paul · 14-09-2009, 2:50 PM

Ahh, can't beat that new thread smell

its either that or the lingering scent of chalky's egg and prawn coach clearer

Decadence1 · 14-09-2009, 2:59 PM

Great work on the new thread!

Linking in with our "clan" name this seems like a great deal.

*phairplay* · 14-09-2009, 3:04 PM

@ TALL_PAUL & SHARPY

Do you guys use a screen protection for your phones?

edit: this is the case i've currently got

Exspect 3g leather slip case
it has a strap that you pull and it pulls you phone out. Will do for now.

Nope, no protection, completely naked

Meant to say, I only went and bloody dropped my iPhone last week

it was in the case, I was fiddling tryin to untangle the headphones (sodding things always twist, really need some new ones) whilst holding my lunch in one hand, it slipped out my hands onto the concrete ground

sods law it had to bounce right on the only exposed bit of phone too, on the top leftcorner

so I now have a vey small dent in the chrome bezel right next to the back casing, not visible from the front, however it has puhed the back case out by a few mm and has caused a crack by the headphone jack, 3 smaller hairline cracks by the volume rocker, and the there's a gap between the bezel and the casing from the top down to the volume switch of about 2mm, because of the dent pushing the case away

It all works fine, I've got insurance through my bank, knowing me I'll probably drop it again at some point in the future, so at least I'm covered

*phairplay* · 14-09-2009, 3:26 PM

no way mate

I need to ring my bank tonight and get mone covered.

chalkywhyte · 14-09-2009, 3:45 PM

I think (hope) a cod session is on the cards, could do with blasting away some of the cobwebs

Have to agree, although getting the controls right can take bit of time.

It's a brilliant attempt from EA, Hopefully the second instalment has longer game play to satisfy everyone.

You gave up on it then?

DeanE · 14-09-2009, 6:19 PM

Well, just splashed out on a nice new lappy - Asus W90VP. Prefer to have a laptop as I can keep it in the living room, but the speed at which tech moves is a joke. Bought a nice Rock laptop 3 years ago and even though it still performs well, its showing its age.

All in all, this gets a great write up everywhere, and Asus get very good reviews from everyone due to the quality of the parts they use. Roll on Wednesday

Aye, I've missed our COD sessions. Although recently I've been absolutely knackered in the evening. Just a few of us were playing last night, and Chalky was finishing up a game of MM before throwing an invite, so was hanging around on the online screen and nodded off. Dunno how long Chalky's invite had been there tbh when I woke.

I'm usually awake till 2-3am normally though, but I've been hitting nodding off around 9-10pm recently. Old age is taking its toll.
