General Forum suggestion

[KingTuggins]

Hey Guys,

I couldn't think of a better place to put this, so please move it if you know of a better general forum.

I was talking with Cheech today about some things, and I recommended that there be a structure for a member being placed in multiple games at a time.

Right now we are placed in the main game we play, but are asked what games we play when we sign up. We are placed in a company, platoon, and squad inside that game and that is where we are housed. We can move ourselves due to recent changes with the forum, but we can only be associated with one game at a time. Most of us play other games, but none of us are placed in other squads.

What I propose is that when a member signs up, they apply to the clan. Get accepted, and are given an application to apply to the games they would like to play. At this point, in the single application, they check the boxes and the application moves on to the leads of each game.

From there our normal structure can take place. You are placed in a company, platoon, and squad for the games you applied for.

The profile would look like this:

KingTuggins

Location:
Consoles:
Etc.:
Etc.:

Game Association

Battlefield 3
Company: Alpha
Platoon: 1st
Squad: Charlie

Call of Duty: Black Ops II
Company: Charlie
Platoon: 3rd
Squad: Alpha

(If there isn't a game listed, they didn't apply for it, therefore they don't play it)

The reason why I bring this up is because as it stands we are linked to one game, and if I want to find other people in my squad that play a different game, I have to look at their profile or ask them individually. Having it right on the site, would be convenient. This should help with people playing across games without playing against a squad from that game. If you want to play the other game, or earn medals from the game, you just hit your squad up (from that game) and go at it.

I can see the logistics being a pain when it comes to practices, if the squads chose to do so. Also, the fact that we would need to be active in more than one game forum, adds more activity on the site, is kind of inconvenient. Which is why I wanted to make the discussion. What do you guys think? Think it would be nice to add the additional game associations to a player's profile?

If you think there might be issues with this, what are you thinking?
