If you want Ill create you a questionaire for account holders of servers ? Ask some questions that concern clans ?
How do you generate funding for your clan server ?
Completely funded from 1 person ?
Also funded by donating members ?
Also funded by Subscribing Members ?
Do you offer differing terms of subscriptions/donations ?
Price / term ?
Do you offer differing types of Membership ?
What do your subscribing/donating Members receive in return ?
Server admin control ?
If yes what level ?
Do you offer differing degrees of server admin control ?
Do you offer a website ?
Do you have differing levels of access on this website ?
Do you have rules of membership ?
Do you run a Teamspeak/Ventrillo Server ?
Do you run more than 1 games Server ?
What gametypes do you run on your server/s ?
Are all your Servers hosted by the same GSP ?
Who hosts your website ?
Would you like a log of all administrative actions on your server & be able to view which adminstrative account did what and when ?
Including :
Server settings,
kick / ban players,
map changes,
Clans form cause a few guys want to play together, as a team create a "playing field" and customise it to be their own.
They also want to be able to do things in the server that only membership allows them to do on that server.
Use a spray (Like in CS)
have their name on a wall or vehicle in game.
Have an insignia on their character. His name on his uniform
Imagine a PC (ingame in one of the maps where a player walks up uses it to see the,
List of this servers Clan members,
game stats,
Bio's,
Who wouldnt want to be a member of that server ?
Clan Members pay for maintenance of a server in return for a guaranteed slot on that server. The ability to "Police" it so any idiots come on they can kick them (only). But again the admins need to be policed sometimes, so their actions should be recorded in sometype of log.
Membership has priveleges and rules !
Someone adds this to Clanforge or creates a clan administration system that games designers incorporate into future multiplayer games then in my opinion you would see the creation of more clans & thus - servers rented by these clans and copies of games bought by clan members etc. etc.
FPS meets MMORPG thats what the existing BF2 stats and ranks and badges and ribbons are a blend of.
But they need to take it a little bit further.
Help create communities on these servers. Help them to police, self-govern and customise these enviroments so that membership has privelege, rules and friendship !
