The Code of Conduct .:FwG:. Farmers With Guns
----------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome to .:FwG:. we abide by a strict set of rules, anyone knowingly flouting these rules may be ejected from the clan. We run a 2 strikes and you're out policy. Each breach of the below sections represents 1 strike unless otherwise stated. If you can't live by them, then we are the wrong clan for you! Joining the .:FwG:. Clan confirms your acceptance of the rules below.
Behaviour
-------------
We expect you to wear your tag with pride at all times in all servers and uphold the .:FwG:. clan name. This clan will soon be known for its maturity and integrity! You WILL respect your fellow teammates and anyone else who enters our server or one you join, everything that you do reflects back on .:FwG:. so let's keep this positive and fun place for everyone. No member of this clan is to publicly criticize other members. If you have and issue or problem with another member address them through the clan leaders. We keep our dirty laundry in house and have loyalty to each other. Friendly teasing is acceptable, as long as there are a lot of smiley faces! When it gets to the point a teammate is starting to get annoyed, DROP it immediately. Due to the age limit of the clan of 18, we are hoping that maturity will not be a problem. In a team scrim/match our players are expected to refrain from any use of verbal taunts in game or typing in the general channel. The only person who should be in communication with the other team is the match captain. When deceased in the game, please refrain from speaking anything other than your last location as it is confusing enough trying to coordinate team efforts without interruptions.
Attitude
----------
Attitude is very important here, we don't expect you to be the all mighty god of gaming as that kind of attitude isn’t welcome in any clan especially here, if you're a good player that's great, but we are a team which is closely knitted and all get along and respect each other. Players who think they're above everyone else, and make sure everyone else knows about it, only create bad feeling within the clan and won't be tolerated here! We play to win like anyone else, but also to have fun as that’s what the main purpose and goal of any clan should be. If its not, they usually fold within a matter of months as they find there’s too many swollen heads in one place.
Cheating
------------
.:FwG:. does not tolerate cheating. If you use cheats in game, then we don’t want you. Any member caught cheating will immediately be kicked out of the clan and banned from the server. This includes but is not limited to teamkilling, using high visibility skins, aimbots, wallhacks and any non-standard mods that gives you an unfair advantage against your challengers. We want our clan known for it's fair play!
Practices - Meetings - Matches
---------------------------------------
All clan members are expected to attend clan practices, meetings and matches. We understand that we all have offline lives and commitments that make it impossible to make them all. This is not a problem, but if any member cannot make it to any clan event they are expected to contact a clan leader no later than on the day of the event. If they cannot contact the leader, they can leave a message on their MSN or email. Similarly, if a member is going to be unavailable for some time they should make all efforts to inform the clan leaders of their absence. There are always going to be circumstances that result in the above not being possible. These will be taken into consideration on a case by case basis. The date and time of matches and practice sessions will be displayed on the web page or Forums, and it is the responsibility of individual clan members to visit the web page and be aware of these times. "I didnt know it was on" is not an excuse for missing anything!
Use Of Console
--------------------
Again the main word here is responsibility! Members do not automatically receive console access, rcon is a privilege not a right! If you have access, it is not to be used to chat in game. Abuse of console access will lead to it being revoked.
Membership Fees
----------------------
There will be no membership fee. The current Spearhead server costs are so minimal that at this time we are running without dues. When Pacific Assault is released, there is a fairly reasonable assumption that those servers will be available only at a premium. Arrangements may be made at that time for a small Membership Fee, but all costs will be disclosed and overage from dues, if any, will be applied against the following months' costs until such time as the overage can pay the server for a month when the dues will not be required.
Leadership
--------------
At the moment, most clan decisions will be made mutually by Starlost, Tarnish and Raistlan. The reason for this is to operate a democratic Team without the traumas associated with too many people trying to lead. We are not adverse to helpful suggestions of any sort, however the final say will remain with the three of us. Clan responsibilities will be delegated as needed to ensure clan participation.
Final Statement
--------------------
These rules are put forward to make sure that clan politics do not interfere with having fun while playing the game.
We reserve the right to amend, add or remove any item from the above set of rules as required without prior notification. If changes are made, then you will be notified of a change in EMail, but it is your responsibility to be up to date on these rules.
