Hi all..

recently we changed our name to lx alliance, to show that this is not only a mortar community but that every mature clan can join. An alliance to many people means that people of all the clans play together against a common enemy. This is not something that happens within our 'alliance' and i don't think it will be going to happen. Our alliance is just there to organize fun events, communicate, share ideas and find others with the same interest.

I think that we should choose a more appropriate name for our union of clans.. did I say union? This is what the dictionary says about unions:

As you can see, there is not really much of a difference with alliance. But the word sounds a bit less aggressive and fits our purpose better. I would like you to give your opinons about this.

From what I read it also sounds like a community ^^

Some Random Ock · « **Reply #2 on:** January 09, 2006, 08:58:37 am »

okay, ive got some words for yah, my bro is a walking thesaurus and we "pondered" this topic

covenant - not quite "united" in a sense, but hand in hand in the world of LX, yes
sect - a group, but not an alliance

did you wanna make it sound like we were fighting but we are united nonetheless? or make it sound like a peaceful organized group of enemies? same thing!!!! lol

RuNyoufool · « **Reply #3 on:** January 09, 2006, 05:15:59 pm »

Well yes, thats very true Oak.. It's more about the interpretation of the word by some.. i think union sounds quite right. Covenant might be another option though..

Anymore opinions?

i think LXA is a good name for us. first, LXA looks and sounds cool. second, i think lierox is agressive, dont u?

**moved to this topic**

Some Random Ock · « **Reply #9 on:** January 11, 2006, 07:21:41 am »

yah, it sounds cool, i mean, IT HAS AN X!!! how cool is that!?!??!?!?!
but if it was LXcovenant it would sound like LXC, which is awfully close to MXC, that bad ass show with the japanese people hurting themselves, lol

but LXA is appropriate, i think

AnubisBlessing · « **Reply #10 on:** January 11, 2006, 12:54:06 pm »

LXA sounds nice and looks nice as a tag.
But do members of an alliance fight eachother to establish ranks?

Some Random Ock · « **Reply #11 on:** January 11, 2006, 08:47:46 pm »

as long as we know tht this alliance is an aggressive group of friends, its all good in my opinion, lol

we should take a poll on this, dont you think, but later so we get more than just 12 different people's opinions in the poll, lol

i dont think it really matters though, its ll up to the admins and what they wnt, im just here to give suggestions

AnubisBlessing · « **Reply #12 on:** January 12, 2006, 11:06:05 am »

Yeah, the name doesn't really matter, I think this is good xD

RuNyoufool · « **Reply #13 on:** January 12, 2006, 11:25:43 am »

Ok, i have heard your opinions and it seems a namechange isn't really needed. This means we can decide on a good domain name.

Since lxa.* has been taken, lxalliance.net is probably the best alternative.

But doesnt that cost?
Yeah, that sounds good to me.

Well, it does cost. It's included with the account i got for hosting this site, but i need to tell them what domain i want within a week or so. It didn't cost a lot of money, and i am planning to use this host for other things too.

AnubisBlessing · « **Reply #16 on:** January 12, 2006, 12:02:36 pm »

Mkay

I was planning on doing that for TL too..
Yet, I'm still checking interest before I decide

RuNyoufool · « **Reply #17 on:** January 12, 2006, 12:10:37 pm »

So you are hosting it for free at altervista.org now? I just couldn't host it at my other provider anymore because of the high bandwith usage.

AnubisBlessing · « **Reply #18 on:** January 12, 2006, 12:11:44 pm »

Yeah, its for free.. And as you can see:NO ADS

Wohoo ^^

hmm maybe a lil bit late to ask, but wat was the old name of LXA?

Cloud · « **Reply #21 on:** April 30, 2006, 10:41:08 pm »

Pro Mortar Alliance

[leke]LemonNinja · « **Reply #22 on:** May 24, 2006, 09:06:16 pm »

sorry for refreshing this old thread again... but... pro mortars alliance? did u have emphasis on mortars?

Purplehaze · « **Reply #23 on:** May 24, 2006, 10:49:02 pm »

yes. back then, this site was founded by runyoufool, who happened to be the leader of |waA|, an all mortar clan. also joining the PMA (now LXA) were all mortar clans. then PMA realized that this was very dumb since 100LT and rifles kick ass and we all started playing them, and other non mortar clans joined, so a name change was in order. hope that helps.

Gaston · « **Reply #24 on:** August 06, 2006, 01:40:44 am »

Just to clarify, we didn't think "this was very dumb". We thought that first we would collect all the good spirited mortar clans here so we could have quality mortar games, instead of all the problems that are connected with the playing style (behaviour, lagg etc). But after a while, we realized that Mortars wasn't a special case, but this happened in all mods and playing styles, so we thought we would try to ensure quality games and contests plus a community for the members to get to know eachother. Thus making LXA oriented towards a broader audience than before.

Purplehaze · « **Reply #25 on:** August 06, 2006, 01:57:00 am »

what i meant to say was that it was short sightedness on our part

Just started to think... Who's idea was start to play only mortars? There's lot of more interesting weapons in Modern Warfare.

ummm well I didn't find the right thread so I am posting it here

.

I see only me and VIP + rarely some others that they use LXA tag infront of their server name. Is that still a rule? Thanks

Its not a rule that you have to use the tag if you are an allied clan, it is a rule that you cant use it if you arent an allied clan.

Speaking for myself however: i would definitely use the tag if i could host. I take honour in being in an allied clan, and i would be happy to be aible to show that to the world.
