I admit, it's been a while since I've posted on CA Syndicate, but as Crimson Shields is part of the CASYN network, I have decided to bring this up to everyone in CASYN.

DOTA2 now has a guild system. In light of this, it is now easier to organize things from within the game- as a result, I am altering the way posts will be handled:

Informational, and tutorial posts that are already stickied and further informational posts will not change. Examples of this are the Captain's Mode/Counter Pick and the Introduce Yourself posts.


Announcements, however, will be made exclusively on Crimson Shields' guild page. Also, when CASYN decides to launch CASYN from within DOTA2, announcements pertaining to DOTA2 will be held in the guild information window.

Furthermore, changing the way posts and announcements are handled will make messaging more efficient- let's be honest, most people who play DOTA2 that are in CASYN will hardly ever read the forums- but this change will make communication painless, as creating the DOTA2 CASYN as a guild will also create a chatroom for people to participate in- though I am not sure whether this will create a voice chat environment- I will cover this later on.

We hope this change will benefit you all, and I hope to see you in game soon.

Happy ganking!

We are stepping down from CASYN. Due to recent member inactivity and our busy schedules outside the group we are unable to continue running the group. Special thanks to Kalnium for moderating the Dota 2 division and bringing so many people into the group. Best of luck to him and the Crimson Shields.

Our Raidcall Server will still be hosted and availiable to use of the group. Thank you for those who have read this announcement. If you have any questions or concerns please bring them up with me.

Sincerely,
-Jessica

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. A popular game created by Valve, is free to play for three days starting today.

Seeing as we have a small playerbase for the game already, I felt it appropriate to post an announcement and maybe get more people to try it.

Special thanks to last weeks player of the week CD who continues to be helpful and a great person. Keep up the good work and maybe we'll see you as a player of the week again.

This weeks player of the week is freakykid, for helping us get people into the new tf2 server on its first day. We really appreciate the support!
