The best of PoS and 6R have merged to form a new force to be reckoned with. The final squad of commited, talented playas is being finalised atm and triallers are still welcome at this stage to show their skills.
Watch Out, We're Coming For U!

This has been on the cards for a while now, with final discusions finalised tonight. This merger is great news for both clans, especially in the lan sides of things  I am proud to welcome pos members as well as 6r members into this new venture, i am sure binstar and myself will help to bring the squad up to scratch with competition to other top clans out there, as well as the captians  Look foward to waring all clans on the ladder
happy fragging

Good luck guys, I feel sad to hear a well established name like PoS won't be around anymore. I'm sure 6 Pack is going to prove to be another team to fear in the GA ladder.

Just a small piece of advice everyone. Merging to make super clans is the fastest way to end a league. Soon all the other clans will want to merge to make super clans then all of a sudden the league dropps by half in clans then clans get way tooo seriouse and start creating very seriouse agressive wars. Which in the end tears the community apart doing more damage than good for everyone.
How do i know this cause ive seen it happen and so have alot of u as well.. Stop being selfish guys. The joys of making a clan is to take wat u have and train it to b good. Not take the best and merge with their best. I find that gutless and too easy. Or is this wat the community has come to. PoS go back to your own self or dissolve completly and dont create a dominoe effect...
Wonder wat clan OzF should look at for a merger ??
See u already have me thinking it now..

DirtyDazza, get your facts straight before you post. The merger was in no way to make a "superclan," both PoS and 6R were struggling badly for both active members and form (just look at the "ac. vs PoS" post a few pages back. PoS managed to get 2 members to show up for a war... thats **** disgraceful). Neither clan would have been fit to compete in the ladder, so by merging the can ensure that both clans can at least make an attempt to still exist instead of having to disband. Don't jump to the conclusion that they are being selfish, because this merger is anything but.
Oh yeah, best wishes guys. I'm sure binstar and REV will do a fantastic job of running the whole setup.

dirtydazza your a tard like pure said get your facts straight
befor the merger pos have 8 active members and 6r had about the same and with 8 members neither pos or 6r could field a full team for a war which is what happend when pos played 31a pos only had 8 then for the pos vs ac war pos only had 2 but yeah there merging to build a super clan
i see it more as a fight for survival tard

well im not 100% i think around 16-18
and he was having a shot at the pos and 6r guys for merging when he has no right he should have asked for the reason they merged befor flameing pos and 6r
they will be taking up the old 6r position and pos will be dropped from the ladder as far as i know

gl 6P, on another note, Pure West and AngelusX, you yearn for a nice community, yet when someone voices their opinion, you jump at them and suppress it.
if you want something good, make some tolerances and stop creating flame wars

I've got to say, Dazza specifically tells PoS to either go back to being their own clan or dissolve themselves completely. I can't see how you can say that isn't having a go at 6P.
As others have said, both 6R and PoS have been struggling for form and numbers, and not just recently. PoS had been having problems for months getting enough active players. 6R, after a promising start, was having the same issues. 6P is going to be competitive, but is in no way a superclan (sorry guys, I love you and all, wish you the best of luck for the ladder, know you'll do well, but you aren't quite a superclan).
Right now we have about 25 really active and involved clans, and the recent wars have shown the closest results yet. I think we are in for a great run, and I think another clan that is able to compete at the highest level is only going to be a good thing for the community. Losing both 6R and PoS, respected clans with respected players, would be a very bad thing for the community.

I see what the problem was with POS, which I really thought they had plenty of ppl, same with 6R. So forming a new clan is fine.
But if thats the case and a new clan has being formed, both POS and 6R should loss the points and go to the bottom of the ladder. Like all new clans, they can not take on points that another clan has got.
Ok, maybe some ppl would not agree, including members of POS and 6R who have formed this new clan, BUT what is the rules to this? Do 6Pack keep the points that 6R got?

If that were the case then thats not exactly fair. They advertise themselves as a new clan, so they should re-enter as a new clan and start from the bottom like any of us would have to, if we were to create a new clan.

I'd have to say that I agree with both Adarti and RessurectoR that being a 'new' clan they should start at the bottom of the ladder with new stats.

Thats right Ressurector, that is what I want to know,
There must be a GA ladder official who must make that decision and tell us why a NEW clan does not start from the bottom instead 6Pack keeps the points and position.
They must have some fair go for the other teams below who have tried there best to recruit noobs just to keep the team going or dropping out all together.
Like it or not -My view is, its a NEW clan and it should go to the bottom of the ladder.
Its nothing personal to POS or 6R, as I liked there clans and would wish they both had the team to stay in the ladder.
p.s Dazza and myself have seen this happen in UT and it did cause a fue problems,so dont blame him. The UT ladder sent the new clan to the bottom with zero points, which was only fair.

actually guys its not really a new clan is a MERGER
it would be no different if any clan on the ladder decided to get new members and change there name
so in essence pos i closing 6r is getting new members and they want to change there name
its not a new clan formed its just 6r making a few changes
there happy now
i can see y all the clans lower want them to start at the bottom cough free ladder spot cough

I agree with Malth . The more powerful clans out there the better for the comp .
Although I can't help thinking that the whole PoS hype was just that - self induced hype . I'm sure there was something seriously wrong with a clan which had good quality members but then got way ahead of itself . And of course not winning any ladder matches made it all worse .
As long as the total number of competing & dedicated clans is in the vicinity of 20 odd , then we'll have a healthy comp .
C'mon folks , it's a great team game , tell your neighbours about it too :p

"Legally", the PoS members left pos and joined 6R, and then 6R renamed the clan to 6P. Nothing breached in the T&C or ladder rules there, as the players were only in 1 clan at a time etc.
Of course, if there is some sort of general uproar, they might choose to heed the will of the clans and ask the ladder admin to move them down to #40.
Personally, at this point in the season, I think it is better that they stay where they are. As a really rough guess, this clan deserves to be a top ten clan, and it wouldn't be fair to the clans at the bottom of the ladder to have 6P stomp on them just to prove what we already know. If any clans don't feel that 6P deserve their place... well that is what a challenge ladder is all about. Ladders like this give the best matches when everyone is about in the right place, so that you get close contests all the time.
Standard Disclaimer: Just my opinion of course, and it doesn't really affect 1st one way or the other.

If it was a game of footy, and St George "merged" with Cantebury *during* the season, what do you reckon the reaction would be?

I wouldve Personally liked to see 6R and POS try to continue getting new members and just having a few "Major" changes, so we can keep both these great clans in the ladder, meaning extra competition.
But... if this really wasnt possible, I think the merger is a fairly good idea. As to whether they should start as a new clan or not, i dont think it will make much of a difference, if they do get put down, if they deserve the top 10 spot they will get there fairly easily anyway (which i think would happen).

I got no problem Rev, there are so many bottom clans straggling for members, why didnt you approuch them and recruited them in your team? Maybe its because they where not good enough to have a top 10 clan? because you might have lost a fue matches?
I recruited 2 new members who just bought BF1942 this week.They asked me and I said I will show them how to play the game. They will play their first on-line game this weekend.
That is how a clan survives and should be.
Sure, my clan will never be a threat to 6pack on the ladder, but at least I gave new guys a go and helped the BF1942 community to grow.
Thats the difference between 6Pack and OzF.
But I do accept 6Pack as a top 10 clan, no matter how they became such a power in this ladder.
GL to you guys and we will see you on Sunday for a good match. The harder the better

I think that people are taking unproked digs at the merged clan. As anyone who has been round GameArena for long enough would know, clans are allowed to change their names when they please. For example, XP changed their name on the DoD ladder. By merging one clan is merely changing its name and recruiting all of the other clans old players. Why should this be considered unfair to the other clans?

6r and PoS were orignally from DoD. PoS still play, 6r decided to let go. If you look at the line up at the moment, you will only find a few people that 'actually' played DoD are in the BF 1942 side - the rest of the people we actually recruited into our side. So we have helped the community.
I can see what you are saying though. This wasn't easy, but by saying that - 6r and PoS have known each other for a few years now, and most of us even know each other outside of the game.
We would rather do what we done, than letting both clan's die and not put up a fight on the ladder - that wouldn't be fair to anyone.
Its like what was said above, we decided to drop one clan from the ladder, and recruit them into another and for both parties, rename it. Not everyone came across, some people joined other clans, so its kind of the same - you just have to look at it that way.
We don't want to cause any uproar etc, we done what we thought was best.
