    this goes mostly to (forgive me if spelling is incorrect) taltuain but you recently closed a thread concerning clans and joining up.

    A: is it like diablo clans and such or it it completely different?

    B: why did you close the thread (other than the signature and smily thing?) i have always been interested in the multiplayer versions of rpgs but never encountered them or understood them.
    :confused:

    [​IMG] Firstly, this should have been sent to Taluntain himself. If you have a problem with his rules, click on the "PM" button to send him a message.

    Anyway, I will try and answer your questions:

    A: Multiplayer in games like Icewind Dale, Baldurs Gate and such are nothing like Diablo Clans. They are nothing like Diablo at all. The multiplayer game is like: You and your team each create one character, and you go through the single player game. Basically, it is just like the single player game, except everyone controls 1 character each instead of you controlling them all.

    Secondly, IWD and BG aren't played in "clans". You and a few others simply join together and go through, only up to 6 people. There isn't really any "clan" aspect of the game.

    B: The (probable) reason he closed your thread is because you openly advertised your own clan. If you wanted to know about how Multiplayer Games work, you could ask a question about that. If you wanted some people to play with, you can ask "Does anyone want a multiplayer game of IWD2?" or something, not ask people to join your clan.

    Of course, I don't know all the reasons, you will have to ask him in the way I said above.

    Hope I answered some of your questions.

    [​IMG] I think I explained well enough why the thread was closed. Anyone is allowed 1 post promoting his/her site here...and that's it. Not an entire thread. Of course, the original poster's obvious disregard for our rules (i.e. not having read them) attributed to an even speedier closure of his post.

    Anyway, this should be in SS as it is purely rules-related, but I'll leave it closed here as it also contains some game-relevant info.
