[Me1234]

[stipiee]

Yes i saw some clans too.. and i was in one

Those "clans" are just a few people playing together.
some of them had a homepage.


those clans were fighting against each other (damn...ours ownt everybody) just for fun.

Clans are created for a specific purpose. all of them are for fun, and ours promotes anti 3 team games. go to the link in my signiture.

What for?

I don't think it's desired behaviour as it makes people agressive and unpolite

(damn...ours ownt everybody)

I doubt that.

Only few has some purpose, rest is created to.. uh.. make players feel strength in group what causes them to behave anti-social.

[stipiee]

most negative opinion ever...

and almost false. This may be your opinion, but nothing more

That is wrong if you play out of Wesnoth, but I think that's a good point in Wesnoth itself ><

I once spotted a hilarious conversation between 2 players going:

"Omg this guy wants to nuke the clan with attack tomorrow"
"Yeh what will we do??"
"I dunno, I think I'll fight proudly and quit... Hmm.."
"Really???"
"Yes."

Etc...

I saw some others like those, and it does look like a lot of people take clans seriously, but most smart people make clans for fun in Wesnoth.

Some clans were stupid (like this one : http://www.wesnoth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6761 ). Some have real purposes, like the N3T or the NF clans. You can't really generalize.

[stipiee]

jip...there were a lot of stupid clans... like one from turkey:

offending everyone joining the server.

dont really know what we are taling about (seems not to be the topic "what are clans / how can i join" anymore)

whatever, if you just want to play with other mates, without that rivaly stuff and hwatevery, you know what to do http://www.gamers-only.net

Sounded like ironical humour until the "Yes."

Not only my one, you should read some older threads.

Clans? Oh boy here we go again... I suggest you do a forum search on the topic before you post further on this subject.

That's the point, they were totally serious

Yup. A lot of it is in how you define the purpose. "Fight each other for fun" is going to lead to agression and unpoliteness. "Work on honing our skills in particular aspects of Wesnoth" probably would not...

what's wrong with aggression/competetiveness? it helps the fun if you feel some pressure to win, especially if you're teamed w/ friends. all clans do is give it organization.

sorry if i'm rehashing old discussions

[Tomsik]

Competetiveness is ok, agression is not.
I don't know if you like when people swear in games, leave, etc. etc, but surely I do not.
