I think one thing that should definitely be considered is an online help forum where complete noobs can feel free to ask 'what's an ip?' and also for more complicated questions to do with firewalls etc.

Ok, I've got a couple of suggestions for you to mull over which I think may improve the quality of CMO.

Firstly - I think the idea of having clans permanently at the top of the page, ones that have been around for a set time or where the host is known as reliable and committed, should be given emphasis and be highly recommended by moderators (mine included ).

I didn't join the CM website as that seemed like a waste of time, but as far as I can see it has been a long while since newer clans have been given recognition. As a host myself I feel the recognition is something to strive for, and gives potential players a guide to where they might get a decent game.

Secondly - The biggest bug-bear for me has always been the amount of players who come on here, apply for clan games, turn up for a session or two and then disappear leaving you in the lurch. For example in my CM4 game, I had a player who turned up on night one as Man U, signed all the best youths including Rooney, and never showed his face again. This user was then in many threads afterwards regarding games. In my opinion, some form of warning or yellow card, or ideally a blacklist should be made available to discourage these people from behaving in such a manner. Obviously these people should only be blacklisted when A: There is a legitimate reason like above, B: The complainer or host has a reliable reputaton as a CM gamer. These people are the most irritating twats in CMO.

Thirdly - How about something for the high achievers to play for gaming recognition in CMO. Ok Marlow had his awards ceremony, but personally I have never come across any of these players, so how are we to know if they are truly the best...Also, this has come across to me as a bit of a back slap thing for the boys. No offence intended to Marlow or anyone, as he is an excellent helper, but its just my opinion on the awards. Why not have a yearly competition, online, where each reputable clan forwards it's top two or three players to partake in an Official CMO game of the year. Obviously this would take a bit of organising, but again, it encourages competition and achievement. Someone gets to be numero uno and have earned it, and whatever clan he came from takes a lot of pleasure out of it as well.

Anyway, just a few suggestions.

Merry Christmas to all you guys.

Niall

ok here goes.....

1. cmonline website needs to go, i dont understand the need to seperate it from this forum lets get it all back in house!

2. Why isnt there a thread at the top of the forum called F.A.Q, lets face facts here guys nobody (well not many anyway) even bothers reading the guff at the top of the forum, they just go striaght in and think bollocks ill ask who wants a game, maybe just maybe if there was an FAQ (non repliable) they might just check that first and we cant start to get rid what is sh1t useless cr@ppy threads!!!!!!

3. id like to see a recognised clan thread or something simular, id also like to see bad/good host guide, bad/good players etc this is largely a major problem in CMOnline (not so much for established clans) but for example a new clan starts and has 8 new guys within a week 5 have droped out just "because" and the clan pretty much goes to the wall, seen it so many times, with good/bad player guides i beleive we can greatly enhance this experience which is CMONLINE.

covering the above point i was all up for doing a website about this, also giving stats on current clans and managers. A full indepth site, but got mixed reviews and that and coming back from the caribbean put pay to that, it is something however i feel would greatly enhance this site, it does however take it back to the possibilitys of what is the cmonline site now, which as i said above is utter garbage.

Still food for thought there

Doesnt make a blind bit of difference. If people are going to post shÃ*t they will, even if you post in huge letters, cos its been done in other forums. Sadly, some people are just morons and wont follow simple rules no matter what is tried.

free for all convo eh, in that case i want to be mod then, i weed out all the wasters in no time

also i noticed there are quite alot of locked threads on the first page couldnt most of these be deleted as it maybe give a newcommer the idea that the forum is full of clowns , and just leave a few of the worst topics sort of to serve as a type of this is not how to behave type of guide.

if any else has posted this(i just sort of quickly scanned the posts,trying to house organised for xmas ) then i apologise for stealing your idea
