Lobby info suggestion

[Burn]

Change "leavers will be banned! rules are on entgaming website" to "Beware! Leavers and game ruiners may be banned!" for ID and most other custom games.
Add "Players are most active 5PM-3AM EST (Currently: :XXAM EST)" as the last line so players will know when to play for more players.


When game ends, show this message three times: "Join channel Clan BTI@USEast to meet other Island Defense players and play weekly high skill games"

"Join channel Clan BTI@USEast to meet other Island Defense players and play weekly high skill games" or something like that, would also be beneficial to the ID community.

Lynx- you think you could host the inhouses when I can't make them?

-Burn

[Lynx]

Sure if you write in motd that I'll be hosting them when you're not available. Don't take it as a ticket to slack off though

[Burn]

Tbh, anyone can host them, it just takes a few skype and steam messages to get the players lined up. If you don't have enough, then play some pub stomps builder rushes or custom games.

@Burn

Are you referring to bot announcement? Clan channel?
What "last one"? Specify what msg you want to be replaced to what.

Take your casual conversation to bnet channel.

As much as I'd love it, you can't announce the BTI Clan on the ENT ID bot. There are other clans and it will only lead to other people wanting the same privileges for their gamemode/clan.

[Burn]

Which other clans?

-Burn

[ShadowZz]

That's not the point. Just because you and I don't know of them it doesn't mean they don't exist and it doesn't give anyone the right to take liberties over a gamemode. Simple as that :/

[SpiritBreaker]

While I agree with the point about other clans, I would have never found out about BTI (as an active ID clan) and its inhouses had it not been for someone mentioning them in lobby/game.

But then, I wasn't active on forum at the time.

Maybe add these for now, and if someone complains or wants their own clan to have the same privileges, then resolve the situation then?

[ShadowZz]

It's creating a problem that doesn't exist. Think about it like this. If a shaman leaves BTI and goes to make a new ID Clan. Do they get there name on the bot as well? What about old clans that were way bigger than BTI? What if they come back? There are other ID Clans out there.

What if someone wants their dota clan on the dota bot? Theres 1 billion dota clans?

It's just not fair to all clans/players is all. After all anyone who is at the right skill level to be in a inhouse or a ID Clan tends to find BTI anyway.

[Lynx]

You don't need to be a member of BTI to play, it is just spreading information of where you can play high skilled games. I'd suggest to add it now and if someone has a problem with it we can solve the issue then, but I doubt anyone will complain. Any links to another ID clan other than inactive STiD or BTI? You can't argue that this message won't be beneficial towards the ID community, it's more of a message to benefit the ID community rather than Clan BTI. It's different with DotA since they have a lot of clans while ID only has one active one.

After all anyone who is at the right skill level to be in a inhouse or a ID Clan tends to find BTI anyway.

no

[ShadowZz]

If it's not about BTI then why not just refer them to the ID forums on entgaming. Absolutely no reason to include a clans name in anyway. There are other ID clans. BTI is not the only ID clan in the world.

[Mercy]

I dont think we should be advertising other clans. A clan doesnt have to be solely one game and as popularity grows on another, more games are hosted, we have competition.. seems bad for business. Just imo.
