DestinyGAF Clan -> Request thread

Me? I'm a she, not a he.

Maybe I am - sorry. I'm not that logical! Honestly wanted to make sure no hard feelings though, as I thought I'd been a bit rude earlier on. Also wanted to try and be constructive and solve things.

Anyway...
Sorry for the misunderstanding. I've applied to the other one. Maybe a lack of a proper thread is the main issue? People like me had no idea there even was a clan to begin with so we instantly assumed this was the only one. Maybe discuss it with the other people. Find solutions.
 
Funny, I have not seen anyone go to the other thread telling people just to join this one ..... especially admins ;)

Also, who made it official ..... I almost certain there are no "official" GAF clans.

I have joined both groups. As far as I know the other one got made earlier. This makes it more official in my eyes than this one. Either way it doesn't matter but we should try to get all GAF on one group right?

Hey no probs.

You might be right. If there had just been a few conversations beforehand people would've known.

I think we probably don't need a solution now - this is clearly working (how many members does it have?!!!?) and there's no point imo to break it up. Hopefully when the OT comes around it'll just be sorted out naturally, with a general group and a Ps4 group and most people will probably join both, I imagine.

Anyway, I'm out now, because I'm already quote embarrassed and I've already made a stink of myself driving this off topic in a dumb attempt to fix things!

I don't agree, I have no use for being a clan with Xbox or PS3 players.

A PS4 specific group suits my needs, for general discussion the NeoGAF community thread will provide as always.
 
Alright I'm back on. still exhausted, but got some sleep.

Sorry Jburton for leaving you to take my place for a bit.

Thanks all the other Admins

Why not? What is your disadvantage of being in a clan that also has Xbox and Ps3 players in it? Aside from the fact that you will not be able to play with them? I see no disadvantage personally.

Either way it doesn't matter much, I'm just saying DestinyGAF was already there from the ALPHA, so people can join up with that one as well.

Mainly it just simplifies things in the sense that if I see a post of "let's meet up" I don't have to worry about figuring out if it's ps4 or another one of the other consoles. I'd prefer this tbh. It worked for GTAV.

I joined the Alpha group also, it reached a cap where people were members but over half could not get the tag, not a big deal but it is for some.

When people have asked about both groups I have explained and told them to join either or both depending on their needs.

Why was the other one buried in the withdrawal thread and not out on it's own to be visible?

I loved the alpha, I made a post in the withdrawal thread to commiserate then I was out of there.

This is what people should do. Join both if they want. At the end of the beta figure out what group fit best with what they need.

Honestly I don't see why both can't coexist.
 
It's not buried, it's in the OP. Been there since last night :)
But if you didn't play the alpha you'd have no reason to check the thread. Change the title then. Because as of right now I see the thread and say "I didn't play the alpha so I don't need to go there. Oh look a thread called destinygaf ps4 now THAT is calling my name. God damn woof why are you so beautiful? "

D'oh :-) ... I almost never go back to the OP once I've read it the first time though, and without a title change there's no reason to look. I think it would have been better off as a new thread.

I'm thankful for shadownet and the folks here stepping up and organising things out in the open, but I'm sorry it caused friction for some folks.

Plenty of people that didn't play the Alpha go there. It's the most current Destiny thread right now. That's all that matters.
 
It's all good make whatever clan you want. I put the first one up yesterday cause I thought that was the official DestinyGAF. Guess not. New one is there now.
 
Hey Shadownet... you may already know this but we can only see 10 pending requests at a time, even though there is like 29 atm. I found tho that if you have the Bungie app you can select "See All" and see the rest of the requests

this is the same reason why I seen this thread and applied here before the other one.

And as has been said before, a PS4-specific division is perfectly possible in the original DestinyGAF group.

I still don't see the need for keeping this group up. There was already a group, one that is still active right now, and if there were concerns about how that group should be run or structured, then you ( not specifically you, Jburton, but supporters of this group over the other in general ) should have taken your feedback and posted it in the thread that group was formed in to discuss it with others.

Reading the last few posts of Shadownet, I honestly get the feeling that this is no longer about DestinyGAF, but rather him wanting ownership of DestinyGAF. You might say this is not true, Shadownet, but that is the vibe you are giving of with your posts and unwillingness to just shut this down for the time being and start a discussion. Not that anything I say will matter. You ran away with your idea and made a topic for it instead of discussing things over with the existing group, so I doubt you'll let anything get in the way of 'your' DestinyGAF.

I say this thread and group need to be shut down for the time being, and that there needs to be a discussion on the form DestinyGAF will take in the future, without depending on a race to the most users.

And that's all I have to say on it.

You should have calmed down before writing this. You seem upset. This makes since. I don't see it as anyone wanting 'their' own anything.

dude, I could careless about ownership. I asked JBurton (at the time my only other admin) if he feel I should shut down this group. He said no.

My hand was already hovering over the delete button.

Let be real, this is the internet. You don't know me. If you actually do. You would know that I'm the least power hungry person ever.

The only 'ownership' angst I sense is coming from you TBH, neither the alpha withdrawal guys or the group here seem to be hung up on a power trip.
 
Actually y'all should just join DestinyGAF, which is the official Clan on GAF. So I'd make sure I'd get myself invited to that clan :).

Is there a recruitment / info thread for this other group? I knew about the alpha clan only because I saw people on my friends list in it, but never saw it mentioned on the forums, aside from people saying "How do I join? Doesn't seem to be an ingame mechanism" in the alpha impressions thread and never getting a reply. I assumed the alpha clan is gone with the alpha. There is a new one for release somewhere?

If it is supposed to be the "official" one, a dedicated thread might have alleviated a ton of confusion. Or have I managed to just completely miss seeing it?

I think it's a better move to ask members if they want this closed down, not simply following the wishes of others invested in there being simply one group.

Hm now that;s weird man. No need to not go in there because you didnt play the alpha.....
