Good because im really starting to get tired of valor, I have already tried out every weapon that valor has, and am tired of defending the same old maps. At least if we switch factions, it will refresh the game a little bit, with new weapons, and attacking the maps we use to defend, and defending the map we use to attack. It will at least refresh things until the new dlc comes out. Anyway its not like were going to stay at the other faction, once were done we can always come back to valor. Once we switch back to valor, it will feel like new again.

Significant anti-cheat improvement that minimizes and blocks several “lag pedal” device exploits.

I went to the meeting last night and I just wanted to say that I appreciated the fact that my opinion would be heard. So thank you all for letting me voice my opinion and also for everyone being able to discuss their differences in a mature manner without any one biting heads off! Thanks!
No worries. We are all adults here, and everyone here has been more than willing to hear and talk about others ideas or opinions.
Hello Everyone,
Just to inform everyone of the results of the meeting and votes submitted thus far in the clan dealing with the issue of switching to a different PMC. A Majority of 11 votes or more has ruled that a switch will occur. This means that the clan will switch PMC's. A Majority of 11 votes or more has ruled that a switch to Raven will occur. This means that the clan will switch to the Raven PMC. The time frame of when we will switch has yet to be determined. A motion was brought forward in the meeting and seconded to give those not a level 60 two weeks from last nights meeting. This vote if it is carried will overrule the option of 30, 45, and 60 days. To this point it stands that this vote has not carried a Majority. If this vote dies, we will automatically use what majority was chosen from the 30, 45 or 60 days options. When a Majority has been reached on the time frame, I will update this thread to inform everyone. If you have not voted you have until the 21st at 10pm EST to cast your vote. KGPOB has sent messages across PSN informing clan members of choices regarding the vote. I did not vote and will not use my vote unless a tie break occurs and my vote is needed. Thus we use the rule of Majority for 21 members, not 22. I hope this gives everyone a clear picture of what is going on. If you have any questions ask either myself or KG to clarify anything that you may not understand. Hope everyone is doing good!
***VOTE UPDATE***** as of March 15th, 2010 at 2:30pm EST!
The two weeks motion has officially passed with 11 votes or more. The clan will officially be switched over to the Raven PMC as of March 28th, 2010 at 10pm EST. If you have any questions please contact myself or KG.

Hello Everyone,
I will apologize ahead of time for what may come as a shock to most, but I will be resigning from Leadership Duties Permanently for Clan D.I.Y.E. on MAG. I have tried to steer the clan in the right direction from day one and I feel I have failed alot of you in many different ways. I will always have those who agree and those who hate the way I do things, and unfortunately I cannot make everyone happy. I have tried to make sure that I have stayed neutral in all content dealing with our clan and making sure I could make everyone happy. I was a fool to think I could do so. We are in the roughest spot of this clans existence on MAG and it is faultering very much so. Unlike other Clan Based Games this game has three factions and ultimately a switch to another PMC was only inevitable. We all failed to bring this to light earlier in the clans conception, and I most importantly failed to insist we cover it. It has lead to unrepairable cracks in walls that I fear may not be fixed for some time. Communication across the board failed for many people, and we all, including myself failed to hear all of those who voices wanted to be heard. I have tried over the past week to make everyone feel that they aren't a minority, even the majority, in trying to show others that we all care about them. I again failed my task as your Leader in this clan. I will continue to play MAG but not in any Leadership Capacity. I have made some very important friends along the way and I hope that I have helped create a warm and friendly environment along with your help to play on. I would like to invite you all to attend a meeting next Tuesday March 23rd, 2010 at 10:00pm EST to discuss the leadership changes that will need to take place. Thank you all for being humble, inviting, understanding, amazing, and most importantly mature adults and young adults alike. You are all awesome people.
Sincerely,
- Chase -
WAY too much drama for me lately. The messanger got grenaded. Nuff said

I understand and respect your decision, but you're exactly right about one thing: there was no way for you to make everyone happy. Some people would be unhappy if we left, and others would be unhappy if we remained on Valor. However, I would not look at it as your failure as a leader or even your fault. Remember, we all got recruited here because we wanted to be here. For me, I really didn't care where we played as long as I got to play with all of you.
And remember, too, the change does not need to remain permanent. And remember too that we can recruit more people, make new friendships. Don't let the few ruin things for the many -- let them come here and air their greivances like adults. (Because honestly, from the meeting on Sunday, I got the impression everyone wanted this).
If you still decided to step down, that's something we would deal with, but I think you should sleep on it a few days so we can clear the air with each other.
Hello to All,
On Sunday March 14th at 10pm EST(7pm PST) there will be a chatroom meeting on the PSN MAG Party Chat for all to attend. If there isn't enough room for everyone, there will be an officer from the PSN MAG chatroom in the maggameguide chatroom to relay info back and forth to any and all who can't get into the PSN MAG Chatroom. We will be discussing switching PMC's, if approved, which one, and when. Everyone will have a vote and majority will decide. Officers required. If you can't attend inform KG or myself. If you are not able to attend we will take votes til the 21st of March at 10pm EST. Please send your vote to either KG or myself consisting of if you want to switch, if we do switch what PMC you would like to go to, and what time frame should be given to those who aren't level 60 yet. The three choices are 30 days, 45 days, and 60 days. We look forward to seeing you on Sunday or hearing from you.
