       Sorry bout the attitude in those last couple posts... its been
       bout 28 hours now since ive slept, only two or 3 of which was
       platooning with newbies and blowing off steam.  The rest of the
       time has been digging around trying to find the fine tuning I
       need to do here thru BUTTLOADS of pages of options.  and support
       has only one guy so he's a little overloaded and slow to respond
       as well.   Once again I apologize to everyone for that slight
       dam breakage back there. :harm:

       We all appreciate the fact that you are spending WAY TOO MUCH
       time on this!  There is always tomorrow or the next day.

       Robert.
       I said in matches.   These guys were playing.
       I understand clan business and appreciate the hard work that
       goes into running it.
       There are members being singled out,  Not me,   as running with
       the same guys most nights.  I understand and appreciate time
       zones,   I also understand friends and playing styles.
       I have my notifications turned off and generally check between
       matches,  so I am not ignoring you....

       round. Lets roll out....

       I have 60+ OFF'ers on my friends list with the exception of a
       few recent adds I have platooned with them all. Due to being a
       brit time zones can be an issue for me. Also I have an
       incredibly stressful job. I like to platoon and I'm always happy
       to meet new clan members. I also like to play with clan mates
       that I now consider friends. They have been a great support
       network for me as I've had a tough time of things personally of
       late.  I certainly don't feel we exclude anyone. On odd
       occasions I will go offline to grind or just kick back. I make
       no excuses or apologies for this.
       I play to have fun first and foremost.  But as previously stated
       above this has to apply to everyone.
       Happy tanking!

       Cheesie, I apologize for the tone of that response to your post.
       It's been an "interesting" couple days.
       I had heard that there were some folks that were starting
       to clique up.  My email was directed at no one and everyone at
       the same time.  I know it is easy to get to playing with the
       same folks, I have to fight it sometimes myself.  I would ask
       that if some people like platooning together, then at least
       bring in a couple of new guys (sorry ice, acid, dew, and dyno, i
       mean this guys gender neutral) and help them meet the old guard
       as well as each other.
       I do this often.  I'll grab a couple newbies and one or two
       old guard and get a couple platoons going.   after a couple
       games I step out and either go take care of admin business or I
       repeat the same process.
       I hold EVERYONE to these standards be they jr, sr, staff, or
       BoD.
       This clan/group was started to be FUN for all us older folks
       that wanted like minded people to play with.  Some people here
       are not outgoing enough to just jump into a platoon.  Make an
       effort if you see someone runinng alone to invite them.
       If you WANT to run alone to grind sometimes, please show
       away/offline.  this is a universal sign that you are not
       platooning.
       If you get an invite or request, take time in your next trip
       to the garage to respond one way or the other.
       Our strength as a clan will come from our ability to form a
       group for 7v7, 15v15 or company battles at teh drop of a hat.
       Plus everyone here has been a hoot to play with and meeting
       people from all over is just AWESOME!.
       I'll stop my ramble now, good night, good day, and happy
       tanking. :medal:

       Wouldn't have said any apologies needed Robert (thred).  You are
       doing sterling work on the new forum, Cheesie's probably luck it
       wasn't me replying after going without sleep for 28 hours  :old:
       :evil: :hiding: :bigsmile:,
       Keep up the good work as it is really appreciated. I know i'm
       not staff but if there is anything I can help with no matter how
       trivial pm me and i'll do what I can.
       Regards,
       Alan.

       14 members were running this morning so I started one to see if
       anyone wanted to join. Played for an hour without a single
       person popping in. Phunk and Prophecy started playing WOT and I
       always enjoy running with them, so I sent an invite and got one
       back and red were smashed.  :charge:
       Yesterday I started a party and tke919 and ViableTexas9 nearly
       jumped in at the start, neither of which I'd platooned with
       before and reds were killed just the same.  :snipe:
       I'll be looking to platoon more, so jump the hell in folks I
       don't care. I might not have the best stats but I'm sure I'll do
       something stupid which will make you laugh. :tongue:
