Unity: New clan tag

Recently there has been a topic about the tag for the scrimteams since some members in PULP are entering the CEVO league.

This brought up many different tag options, read the topic and see for yourself. But when you ask the question what are all theses sub-tags for anyway? There isn't a very good point to most of them.

For instance the admin tags 1,2 and 3 show who's admin and which level they are. But i'm fairly sure most regulars on our servers outside the clan members know that those numbers stand for a clan tag and let alone the meaning of the numbers. What we DO know is that certain trolls stop trolling when someone with and admin tag comes on which is a reason to ditch the admin tag. Next time an admin can join the server incognito and catch a troll red handed.

Then we have the |SF| scrim force tag. Why would we need this tag? Why would other people need to see someone is in the scrimteam? If they are interested they can find out by checking out the steamgroups or forum. So i say ditch the scrimtags as well.

The same goes for CEVO or any other league we play in. We don't need special tags for that. The people of PULP who play in the leagues have the same tag everyone wears.

And then we have {P} tags and {PULP} tags, where the latter one was the original tag. I started wearing the first one since i started playing competitively and people were calling "Hey PULP come over here! Hey PULP this, hey PULP that". Some others like Taboo thought {PULP} messed up their name and chose it for reason.

So i think it's time for unity when it comes to our tag. This will make it much simpler, less discussions, less stuff in your name and most imporant; we are recoginzable as a clan throughout the whole TF2 community. Where ever we go people will see that same tag and realize PULP Fortress is not to be messed with!!

Therefore i present you my plan fellow members:

-We ditch the scrimteam/cevo tags
-We ditch the admin tags
-We revert back to one mandatory clantag

My suggestion would be that we use the {P} tag but Greezy preferred the pF tag as a clan tag (it stands for Pulp Fortress in this case instead of Pulp Force). Also i still see some people wearing the {PULP} tag.

So to choose we have:

{P}
{PULP}
pF

Any other ideas please for a new tag please say so in this thread. After we are done collecting idea's i will make poll so we can vote.

{P}

Code:

:P

I like this tag because it adds humor to it.

{P} should be the clan tag, but when the member participating in CEVO are actually in the CEVO server itself, then they should use .pF; after the game is concluded, and the members leave the CEVO server, they will readopt {P}.

^ This, and I already ditched the admin tags when I was too lazy to copy paste it from another admin's nickname...XD

pF! Also nico, just press right alt+the number you need...

I was thinking -|P|- or -|pF|-.

Why should we change it?

To symbolize that it's not just the pulp clan, this is like our group and this is what we do.

Furgus we're trying to go for shorter tags. Like three characters or less. When the tag is longer than the name, something is up.

Symbolize it for ouselves? To achieve what? I'm not trying to be negative or something, just trying to find out why we need a special tag for CEVO.

And after the match we would revert to clan tag again?

{P} would represent the WHOLE clan, pF. would represent the 'group' that's entering CEVO.

But even after CEVO I would still most probably keep on pF because it's awesome.

Yes, do this so I can have admin and be in -CMGZ- at the same time.

Spy-admin for the win! No one would suspect someone who's in TWO CLANS to have ADMIN! lol.

Well, .pF looks super pro, and if we are gonna be in CEVO, we are obliged appear as such. This wouldn't affect playing in pubs or lobbies or our own server, in those instances we would be {P}.

But, Eraser, if this doesn't fly, say so; in the end, it doesn't make a bit of difference because the balls are inert.

I understand that Google but that's not an argument. We could also make a special tag for people who like to play zombie fortress. But why? Thats my only question. And you can't wear another tag then everyone else in the clan. If we vote for a tag then that tag will be the one we all wear.

Obliged to appear as a team from PULP yes. We represent PULP and whatever clan tag we choose can be worn when doing CEVO. I don't see why this should be a differnent tag then our clantag. What if we choose pF as our clantag. I assume you would want another tag for CEVO then?

doesn't CEVO say you couldn't use the {P} tag, isn't that why pF was founded?

I don't think CEVO rules say anything like that. Greezy can enlighten us i hope.

Cevo asked for a team tag. I figured we should have a tag for the cevo team to differentiate us from the clan. Theoretically we don't NEED it but it makes sense.

It only makes sense if we have multiple PULP teams entering the competition. Since we only enter we with one team we represent PULP.

Well then, I guess we have a choice, .pF or {P}

Alright i made the poll: http://forum.pulpfortress.com/news-f1/poll-what-should-be-the-new-clan-tag-t1484.htm

One small thing left to discuss; if pF wins the poll we should find a variation tag for applicants.

sorry for the x2 post :3

just press the orange X button on your post to delete it.

Believe it or not fragile, we have a 18 man rotation server, no crits, fixed weapon spread, stock maps.

We're not completely orange-centric anymore.
