House tags

[daMduck]

Ok since eGO TF2 is not having houses thus far like are DoD site, are we wearing are house tags in TF2?

 

[GardenGroveVW]

Its fine if you wear the house tag.

 

[Two Listen]

Yay. Flea likes his tags.

 

[Blazing Heat]

I took mine away for now...

 

[Mr. Chair -TR-]

I like to wear mine. I still love Baron in TF2, not just DoD.

If you're like flea and you feel that your house tag makes you more of a man, then go ahead. =)

Someone mind giving me a quick 101 about Tags? I'm assuming this is something that's grown out of the WWII shooters, which I must admit, is a gaming phase I happily skipped. I realize it's an identifier of sorts, but what's the "cultural (in Internet time)" significance?

 

[masterofpuppets]

In the DoD:S eGO, there are so many members that the centralized promotion system we had did not work. So, 'houses' were formed in order to help with the control of the clan. Now, members join a house and all promotions and problems are handled inside all the houses. Some of the council here, myself included, are house leaders. Baron and I run -RR- or Rojos Raiders, Garden runs RD or Reservoir Dogs, and the jones boys run [JONES].

Got it. Thanks MoP.

Nobody listen to MoP, he's just angry because of my recent sniper scores and falling for my sticky bomb traps.

It would be more truthful to say I like my tags because they make me seem more IMPORTANT than I really am, not more of a man. I've got my voice for that.
