I personally like [IRL] PS4 Clan

It still leaves it open for the [IRL] XB1/PC Clans to be set up and maintain independence from each other. Sure since we're all on boards.ie anyway, then why don't we ALLl just use the IRL tag? We're not going to run into each other online anyway but it'll be a good way to show the IRL community across all the platforms.

your right there paul,myself and bordorfox was on an irl clan on the xbox360 on bf3,but when i got the ps4 we didn`t see any on here

It seems like Spear(PC elitist ) and miju(XB1) are the most 'vocal' for their respective platform so I'll send them a pm just to see if their ok with the 3 platforms running kinda as one. The PC one is already up under the name Boardsie PC so would anyone here object to us using Boardsie PS4?

EDIT: I realise it's very similar to the one set up by Chickenboy but I think it best to appear under 1 unified name if you know what I mean

I think it's best to clear and separate the IRL named one and the more general boards.ie one. I explicitly want there to be both boards.ie PS4 and boards.ie PS3 ones, and would've created them myself if it was possible. So I need someone, preferably familiar with the Irish PS4/PS3 players to step up and start one, and to manage it.

In terms of the IRL, that of course is your own business to arrange as wished for.

Yeah that's fair enough

I'd volunteer, but with the kids and my somewhat unorthodox work hours I'm not sure I could give it the time. Also very unfamiliar with the Irish players until recently, never been in any sort of clan etc before, probably only do the job a disservice.

Spear

Platoons aren't as formal a thing as clans, after all you can join three of them at once. They're more like player groups in the most general sense, or the gangs from Max Payne/GTA5.

Well i was in talks with miju a while back he was mentioning the same thing as yourself,i know him well from the xbox days :P,but i just wanted to keep it simple,i thought when we were in the xbox irl clan it just went over the top with rules etc.,the fun was taking out of it.

Spear

But that's in terms of a proper clan. While platoons can be used to mark a delineate a group as a clan, they don't mean rules/structure etc. Some of them are just general grouping such as players of a nationality, or in this case, a site.

Just to throw in my little opinion here, I'm all for the teamwork and camaraderie that's associated with having a 'clan' and whatnot, just without the strict competitive side that tends to comes with it.

Either way though I think we gotta have a vote of some sorts, I'm okay using the [BRDS] tag if we do go that route, although I do kinda like the current [IRL] ones

Well i think we`ll keep it IRL,thats how it started and how its staying.Up to yourself`s if you`s want to start your own clan,but this ones staying IRL

BordorFox

Personally i see no reason to even worry about platoons, they were on BF3 also and were not used and i doubt they will be used here either, people playing mostly wont be near a PC and just getting people to change their tags to IRL or get an emblem was a mission also.

As for clan name and clan tag, i think they should stay the same and if boards want their own they should make their own thread and clan, if that's a problem we could manage the clan from irishgamers.ie or elsewhere instead.

This is why the older clans failed, it became less about fun and more so about egos and people trying to tell other what to do, ruins the game for me, don't know about you all but i don't try and take the game so serious.

Spear

They're not mutually exclusive, you can join three and thus have the choice between three tags/emblems.

Yeah that's fine by me.
Quick question; is it possible for Chickenboy to delete his platoon and start a new one??
I know it's been asked for the highest ranked member to create the IRL Platoon but I think if Chickenboy is willing to run it, and to be fair he did already try start one for us, then he should at least be considered

Seems appropriate for an Irish clan to have a drunk at the helm alright........:D

For full transparency, I'd be okay with Ally as well

lmao...yup i was thinking of ally plus another 1 or 2 ,i went for thurles cause hes on mostly everyday like myself plus hes always in chat,and laid back when i take his tags :P,though allys on most night as well and also is always in chat ,theres at least 6 to 7 of us on most nights and stuck in chat,though there was about 4 of them with premium,but thurles was really the 1st to ask as well,though when it all goes tits up as well we can blame him :P.

cobraeire

I could of taking a lot into consideration also,like ally was one of the 1st members,that fra was is the highest member,but he doesn`t come on boards or chat,and that yourself paul (booth) is good at organising telling where the enemy is etc,same as pat we could get 6 or 7 guys on here to start one ,but again its just a bit of craic at the end of the day...can the person that has the platoon make the promoting/demoting members?

Direct from DICE;

• The ability to create and join a Platoon for up to 100 members.
• Basic Platoon management such as inviting, applying, and promoting/demoting members.
• A private and public Platoon feed, where you can communicate and coordinate.
• A Platoon emblem and tag that all members can easily apply.
• The ability to earn stats for your Platoon and rank it up, and see all the matches you played together.

Hey lads, wouldn't mind joining up with ye. Am part of a platoon already, but wouldn't be averse to hopping in and out of it when I play with my regular group. Due to work hours, I'm mainly on after midnight. Wonder if there are many other late nighters?

Depending on work and kids etc, I may be on fairly late some times. No harm putting up your PS id anyway

Myself and Aaron play quite regularly and I guess when he's in work I'm on my own trying to not lose the rag with useless team mates. I'm up for joining the clan too so I can have a regular group to play with.
