First
and foremost, we play for the fun of the game, period. We are good
people at heart and most of what is said below falls in line with
being just that. Your membership in PSC is a privilege that you
should be proud of. When you play with this tag you represent all
of us. The following guildelines are for new members, prospective
members and also for our existing members. We want you to understand
what's expected of you as a member of PSC and also our general philosophy
of the game.
1.
It is imperative that all members of PSC
have an exemplary attitude, therefore, we expect and demand that
all members display character and integrity in all of their public
actions. Arrogance and boasting will not be tolerated. Actions
speak louder than words, and one's playing ability will speak
louder than any boasts one can make. Degrading anyone with less
playing ability is completely unacceptable. All of us were rookies
at one time, and there is someone out there better than each of
us. It is our desire to encourage newcomers to the game and make
their playing experience enjoyable with tough, fair competition
as well as helping them improve their skill. Courteous behavior
is expected at all times.
2.
PSC consists of members both younger and
older. Members are male and female and come from a wide range
of racial and social backgrounds, therefore, though not solely
because of this, age-ist, sexist and racist expressions in the
form of attitude, posts on any forum, and comments while playing
are absolutely forbidden. For this reason also, profanity and
sexual innuendo are very highly discouraged. Know your audience.
3.
Talking trash can be fun sometimes when
you are friendly with the recipient of the trash. However it is
not the intention nor the desire of PSC to make any enemies due
to loose-mouthed, tactless comments. Therefore, it is expected
that all members will exercise restraint, particularly in a crowded
server with individuals and clans unfamiliar to us. Again, know
who your audience is. People often take jests personally, and
there is really no need to make nasty remarks to strangers. Furthermore,
remarks because of ping envy are unacceptable. We would all have
the lowest ping possible were we able. Understandably, ping makes
a difference, but it is still the right of that individual to
play without being harassed. Save all remarks, frustrations, and
venting for private chats with your clanmates.
4.
If
another player, any player, asks for advice, we ask that you be
courteous and as helpful as you are able. We wish to keep no secrets
from anyone. Helping and developing new players is not only a
gratifying experience, it keeps interest in Q2 alive.
5.
NO Cheating, NO bots, NO time enhancement
programs or whatever they are. If you do... your GONE.. and advice
of your cheating will be sent to the admins of other servers and
clans. We want cheaters out of this game.
1.
Induction into PSC is by invitation only
(though expressing your interest certainly doesn't hurt ;)). Prospective
candidates' membership will be discussed thoroughly by TheBigGuy
and Joker before your asked to join. Membership will be granted
or denied based solely on your attitude. Skill can be developed
with practice. From our experience attitudes don't change for
long and if you've demonstrated poor attitude or sportsmanship
in the past, you probably don't have a chance of membership with
PSC.
2.
We tend to hesitate in accepting members younger than 18. We do
have a number of members under this age, but they tend to be family
or close friends of established members. If this isn't the case
for you, we may ask for parental approval. Your family and intellectual
development (Schoolwork etc), are more important than this game.
3.
We
can help you with configuration files and tips on playing styles
and specific maps etc. We take pride in developing people into
great players.
4.
Multi-clanning (being in more then one clan
at the same time) is NOT encouraged. We believe that multi-clanning
is a sign of a lack of true dedication to PSC, which we desire
from all our members. We request potential members to be upfront
with us as far as their clan status/intentions prior to joining
PSC. There may be some exceptions to this but you'll have to get
the ok from TheBigGuy and Joker. The PSC tag should be worn proud
and by itself.
5.
You're expected to wear the PSC tag almost
all the time you play. Sometimes we use aliases, but this is usually
for security purposes, and sometimes in fun. If there are situations
in which you feel either using your frag name or tag is not in
the best interests of your stats or clan stats, use an alias such
that people can identify you. We ask when using an alias you are
PSC in character and integrity.
6.
You can and will be kicked from this organization
by TheBigGuy or Joker at any time for not complying with the spirit
of the clan.
Most often there is a discussion with other high ranking PSC members
if this is necessary. Basically, if you don't represent us well
then we don't want you, regardless of skill.
In
summary, we want all new members to take as much pride in wearing
the PSC tag as we do. This is a clan founded on fun, friendship,
mutual respect, and high ethics. Anyone who feels this code is unfair,
or does not wish to follow it, should look elsewhere for a clan
that better suits their beliefs.
