Hi all

 

Just like we've had the individual players' pledge to decency (e.g. limiting your rage to players whose mankini is the wrong size), I think it would be GREAT for clans to have their own pledge.  A lot of the stupidity that happens around here is because players haven't read the rules - and it only takes a few moments to do it.

 

If you're a clan commander, the rules of the game are here.  Review all of the rules.

 

Once you've read the rules, make sure your clan abides by those rules - in the clan's name, in its communication, and in its operations and play.

 

Yes, shenanigans have happened with clans months ago, and more recently.  My guess is that most of these clans mean no harm through whatever pranks they've pulled - they were usually just having fun and not intending to break any rules.  Nonetheless, it was without consideration of the rest of the players who were there for a fair game.  But now's the time for a fresh start.  

 

The Clan Commitment

So from this day forward, if your clan is willing to play clean, play fair, play by the rules, and play with honor, put your clan name in below.  Please don't trash talk anyone if you know their clan has made mistakes in the past: this is an opportunity for a clean slate, no questions, no prejudice.  Just put your name in, and let's move on.  No comments please, just a commitment from our clans.

Well you can count on the Triarii to follow this pledge.

Great idea.

Our members in the Imperium clan are held to a high standard for their behavior and how it reflects on the clan.  We strive all the time to have fun and exhibit professional game play and sportsmanship.  My favorite word is noob.  If you guys every see any Imperium member (IMPR) typing foul language or being very derogatory, please screen shot it and send it to me or our commander Jensen215_

As Deputy Commander of Clan Meta, I believe I speak for all of us when I say that we are committed to this pledge. We may not be a forum clan, and we may not have any sophisticated form of communication between various members, but I can promise that I and commander CanyonWren will be on the look out for any forms of misbehavior from our members. I hope that all the clans out there, big and small, will do the same. If anyone sees misbehavior from a member of our clan, please send me a PM with details and I will deal with it.

 

We will not tolerate any negative play.

I Agree here. Havent experienced any offences yet with other clans. But I can agree as a member of spud we will be keeping up our best behaviour. 

 

Only had a few matches with own clan in red so far.  So far these frog legs have remained uncooked

Are you saying that 501 would prefer to play by its own rules instead of the EULA and the Game Rules that they all agreed to when downloading/installing the game?

I'm saying in terms of our events like no shoots and other stuff we will continue our events. Other than that we are strict on our moral code and follow the EULA.

What kind of no shoot event is allowed by WG's Game Rules and EULA ?

 

Edit: I just noticed OP asked for no comments on this thread, so I'll comply, and won't post any further in this topic.

Does not compute.

 

Reluctanttheist suggested commanders post instead of individual members. Perhaps he foreshadowed this kind of thing.

No-shoots are expressly forbidden by the EULA.  So you plan to only follow the official rules that you agree with, and forget the rest?

None. That is my point. We will continue to do our events as we think fit.

That is a harsh way to put it. Yes they are forbidden but affect a small amount and portion of the player base so we will continue our events like no shoots. It's not like there every day. And as for that last part to an extent yes. Like no shoots for example. They can't prove we did it as its a PvP game and I could have been "eating my pizza and playing with one hand"
