I put this as a reply in an earlier thread but i feel it needs to be more out there

*************
I hope i dont type out of tune.But most of my clan dont play battlefield anymore ,and those that do are very few that used to be.
I spent tonight remembering of the old bfv days when an ingame server and Ts server was full of irish battlefield players.(vietnavan) having a laugh til early morning
does anyone else miss this ???
does anyone wish that they could just forget this clan crap and just join an irish invasion on battlefield ???
Does anyone wish they could be in a server full of irish ingame and haveing a laugh on ts at the same time ??

well i tell you...i do !! ...i feel that of the irish commuinity that play bf2 is too small and scattered amoungst different clans from all over the planet !!
so i propose that maybe...maybe...we forget all this clan bull**** and join up at least once a month.get every Irish bf2 player in one server...one Ts server.... and have a right nights craic !!!
What do you say eh ???

I was lucky enough to start playing battlefield amoung irish players before the clans came about (Tig,Nrg etc),and it was fun logging on every friday night and meeting new irish gamers within Battlefield.
I know bf2 has eaten away at many a clan,but what i dont want to see is it eating away at a community !!!
And i know people within my own clan that miss the old days of an irish invasion on battlefield...and im sure you do too !!
If you can post amoung each other on a forum...why not play amoung each other on a server ??
Irish servers might be empty....But it dosnt mean that the irish arnt playing
so i propose out of 3-4 irish servers that are emptydaily,pick one and a Ts server,
plan a date in a month and have an all night irish frag & slagathon.
Get your beers in and play till the last man or women (cant forget you Viri) sleeps !!

If u have any questions or ideas on this .. Pm me on sturgezulu@hotmail.com
Come on ,you know you want to

Theres a simple answer to all of this. Each clan or gaming community agree to run a gaming server open to the public.

For example say tig agree to run a BFV server, NRG a BF2 server, someone else a 1942 server, someone else a CS:S server, etc. With the agreement being that each clan run them for a set period of time, say 3 months to start with.

I'm sure that tig would be happy to run any of the above servers. Maybe Rev could agree to run a BF42 server in association with boards.ie. Once this is in place its gonna be a lot easier to have decent organised games.

ye i agree do you think it would be easier to maybe have a set night like tues or wed every week and then go on a ts channel, then have different nights i.e vanillla, mods, int, bfv, 1942 etc

Someone with some organisational skills pick a date.
Im sure tig or one of the other clans will fire up our/their 'nam server and give the TS details here.

With the impending Vietnam release for Bad Company 2 we have decided to ressurect what was Vietnavan. The server will be a 20 slot server and will only run the Vietnam maps when the game is released.

Server details : Vietnavan - NEW MAPS - by [TiG] - [217.163.30.12:19567]

Server is currently running the new Bad Company 2 maps from the latest map pack, however will change to Vietnam era maps from 18.12.2010.

The IRL BFBC 2 is not a hardcore clan that worry about clan matches and game battles, we are a community of Irish players that like playing to all hours of the night having a laugh, playing drunkenly and chillaxing.

There is no requirment to enter, just that you can take a little "trashtalk".

For example, a few months ago I admitted to the lads my daytime profession is a specalist nurse. Now everytime I log on I get, "Alright murse".

Harmless fun.
If interested look us up on http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055851540&page=352

Looking forward to seeing some of you!

I know I'm a bit late to the party but is Vietnavan still up?

I tried to find it yesterday and I couldn't. I've fond memories of the Vietnavan server back in the BFV days and ever since BF1942 I've been hanging around tig and boards related servers, would like to keep up that trend if possible.
