Can someone clarify the difference between the two...uh.."groups"? Is one a clan and one a group, are they both clans, etc. I know this one is PS4 specific and the other is all encompassing but besides that are there differences?

That is the only difference, one is platform specific and the other is not ....... nothing more.

Sorry, I applied for the NeoGAF one that wasn't solely for the PS4. Applied to the PS4 group now. Thanks!

256 members decided of their free will to join, they might beg to differ.

All that is being provided here is a choice, if you deem this separate group unnecessary there are other groups that are more general that will suit your outlook.

You see, this is what bothers me. Lighten up! There's a real sense of pomposity in your responses. You're not an MP, you know. We all love the game and we all want to be able to play together. You're not some spokesbody!

Fair enough, if that's how you see it.
 
Maybe it's just the internet and text and tone blah blah blah, but I'm pretty sure there's no malice intended anywhere in this thread.

There have been accusations of theft and only certain people had the right to setup a group, I just joined a ps4 group who wanted to play Destiny and wanted to help.

I'm not sure want people coming in and posting that this is group is unnecessary is intended to be.
 
I'm confused. I applied for the other DestinyGAF during the alpha. When I did, the other group had 500 clanmembers (I assumed it was capped there). I applied and was not accepted, assuming again this was because it was full. I was excited to see this clan started because I just wanna play with gaffers on PS4. Is there a cap or no?

No no no. There was a group and 'you guys' just went ahead and set up one without checking first, so the people who set up the original were, understandably, a bit cross.

They've expressed themselves pretty fairly and you and Shadownet have gone on the defensive and just charged ahead with setting this up anyway. I was in the original group and I feel bad for people that put in effort at the beginning and also that the rush to do this was a bad idea, as it's made a mess.

This is a frankenstein's monster type situation now. I mean you guys have put loads in this afternoon (do you not have jobs?!!! :-)) and people are joining in droves, which is all good.

But, really, all that matters is that the OT has links to groups that wanna play.

I just think it's been handled pretty clumsily because of an over eagerness to be the ones setting something up.

Game isn't even out until September!

You'll probably respond defensively, but hey I understand if you feel under siege. You're not, though. It's just adults talking.

Again, and I will state again to make it clear ...... I set up nothing. I joined both clans as the discussion over theft had already started, Shadownet asked for any volunteers to help admin based on location and time zone ...... I stated I would be interested in helping and have done so, mostly I have been approving people who asked to join.

I had been unaware of any discussions around setting up the original group, most where unaware it had already been setup ...... I did ask that maybe it would have been better to make people aware instead of discussions going on, instead of being among a small group of people.

Who exactly should people ask?, and how would they know they had to if no one was informed that plans where underway? Why where these things setup without a consultation with other people?

I have expressed myself pretty fairly that I did not feel that one massive group was necessarily the best way forward.

You're an admin now, it's your responsibility :-D

Best thing to do would've been to say 'oops. Let's put this on hold while we speak to the other dudes and we can sort something out. '

Instead it came across as "wahey! We've got unlimited powaaaaaa! "

But even so, I appreciate you're probably doing a boatload of admin now so I don't want to pick at you.

I just wanted to try and explain at least my own previous comments and also try and help lighten the mood a bit and - yes - make sure you weren't feeling hurt or pissed off (maternal instinct, sorry - I'm of that age) .

I'm sure whatever happens we'll all lose track of the outside world when this thing finally comes out.
 
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 :).

I hold no power and honestly I don't really care who is in charge, I stated this position in the other thread very early in this conversation, if someone else wants to be admin for UK region (two are preferred) then apply and take the place, I am prepared to be nothing more than a member, that is how it started out.

No discussion around an alternative was had, only people telling Shadownet this was unnecessary and to close it down ..... this is no discussion.

If I came across as somebody hungry for power or unwilling to discuss anything I would be interested to have these posts pointed out so I can reflect upon them ......... I did have an issue with people stating only they had the right to setup a group and so on, this more than anything else came across as ownership than anything else.


I do feel this is much ado about nothing, but I will respond to people coming in throwing accusations or labelling people ....... other than that I just want to play Destiny with some people on PS4.
 
Alright, request sent!

My Bungie Display Name (and my PSN ID) is PinGun

Anyone reading this wanting to add me as a PSN friend, feel free.

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.

Alright...well I can't offer any more olive branches or try and be any more friendly.

See you in Old Russia!

Sorry I did not feel I was being unfriendly or pushing away any olive branches ......... I did not know we had been unfriendly and needed an olive branch?

See you there.
 
Sent. I'm already in the main DestinyGAF. Can you join more than 1 group?

are we sure there is going to be enough room for every member in an all-in-one GAF group? the Alpha, which was PS4 only, had over 1000+ people and the clan capped out at 500. I was even asking around if anyone was going to make a second group.

are the caps the same for retail?
 
You aren't being unfriendly. He's being a bit passive aggressive. You're only saying the logical thing.

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 I did not feel I was being unfriendly or pushing away any olive branches ......... I did not know we had been unfriendly and needed an olive branch?

See you there.

I'm probably just being paranoid! I'll stop stinking up the thread now.
