The all new: Ask a moderator about the forum & rules

[Max Power]

Because it implies a collective of individuals that display zero team-play (kind of like warfare in Africa with irregular guerilla groups that do not resemble or conduct themselves like an armed force other than the use of military weaponry, the term "clan" is sometimes used there to name/describe such factions), but instead play for their own glory (their ranking on the server) rather than that of the team, which is not what OFP & ArmA1+2 are about, many complaints from people wishing to play the game in such a manner that the game is not "good" enough to play like that have been posted over the years (not realizing it's a design decision to aim for realism and not bunnyhopping). No organized military in the world uses the word "clan" either to describe any kind of unit on any kind of level. They use "fireteam" and "squad" for the smallest typical unit.

When I played Counter Strike, I was very much anti-clan, but their team play was usually quite meticulous. My brother used to play in clans all of the time. They had shorthand code for all kinds of things and would cover each other and work together. I was anti-clan because I was very much into individualistic and not team play.

Clan means 'family', by the way.

Thank you for closing the DR thread. So that this message isn't considered spam, I will ask the moderators a question:

How will [RIP] Luhgnut increase his post-count now?

No problem, it was about time.

As for Luhgnut: No idea but I'm sure he will find some other playground.

Do I have permission to laugh at the fact that it has been announced that no other patches or *cough*DLC*cough* will be released for Dragon Failing?

The big "GFY and then buy our sequels if you want to keep believing in improvements" was the biggest compliment BIS as well as their customer-support could ever get. A white flag flying over the empty shell that is Codemasters. This would be awesome for a whole new thread, but I am certain either W0lle or Placebo would do nasty things to my account, so I'll pass.

Still, they got what they asked for, an answer of sorts It appears they responded after Templar threatened to contact as many gaming-related sites and blogs as possible.

If the moderators had known that it would end up like this, I'm pretty sure they would have let it open for a few more days for even more sarcasm to pour in. Still, oh well.

[raedor]

Yep, but we didn't, so please do not turn this into a new DF thread.

[W0lle]

I just unlocked the thread in question for another 7 days.

Hi Mods!

I´ve done a little search, but nothing has popped up, so I thought instead of clogging up inboxes I would ask the question here.

I wanted to do a few fan-made Arrowhead themed Arma 2 ads and maybe a sig for myself, and I wanted to ask if it would be okay to use the official Logo (Arma 2 Arrowhead) for that, and if yes, if it should just be taken from the Website or if there´s any other way to get a hold of it (either as gif or png or psd)?

If necessary I will post an example of what exactly I want to do via pm.

Thanks in advance for the answer.
