guidelines

Mobile Suit-8th Platoon was designed to be a clan where rules and regulations were kept to a minimum and we think that we have the minimal amout of rules of any clan online. We do however have some basic rules which are necessary to prevent total chaos and most of which are just common sence.

The 12 guidelines and rules of Mobile Suit-8th Platoon

1. Your callsign can either be a personal stylized name or anything that can inspire fear and destruction in the Zone battlegrounds, it cannot contain any numerical numbers other than the [MS08] clan tag unless approved.

2. All units are equal in our clan so we have no actual chain of command, although any Pilot wanting or willing to command the frontline tactics of a zone game may do so. All Pilots should then therefore follow orders unless they put him or her in any bad position. We shall all try to pilot our mechs as an effective tactical unit together as a team.

3. Clan tags must be [MS08]. First letter of your handle must be capital and if you have a two word callsign the first letter of the second word must be capital as well. There can be no spacing between your [MS08]ClanName.

4. All Mobile Suit-8th Platoon members must wear the clan decals at all times and follow the scheme set forth by the founders. Personal decals are allowed but the clan decals must always be worn in at least one location.

5. Do not persist in verbal confrontations in the battlefields with any enemy force. You may do this in the lobby of any zone game as much as you wish.

6. Any team killer will be exiled and banned. This is unacceptable and a pathetic rebellion in our eyes. If you do this you will make lifelong Platoon enemies resulting in a ongoing hunt to bring you to justice. Always join your Mobile Suit 8th Platoon's teamside. Do not ever engage your battlemech against your Mobile Suit-8th Platoon Clanmates in Team Attrition or Team Destruction. If the Zone Server teamsides are uneven to a overwhelming degree you have the authorization to engage fellow platooners. But when the game is reset, you should try to choose common teams as quickly as possible.

7. Within any clan it is known that inner conflicts may arise. Please use the utmost respect for your fellow clanmates to minimize arguments on our teamside. Do not use foul language in any Mobile Suit-8th Platoon Zone server. It is possible that your clanmates might have his or her children watching the game.

8. You may also recruit any mechwarriors you deem worthy of our order. Refer these men and women to this website terminal.

9. Your Faction Title within multiplayer options of your game terminal must be labeled correctly as -No Unit- MobileSuit-8th Platoon.

10. When piloting your mech within zone games do your best to decrease lag by choosing the correct mech before the game starts or as you drop into any battlefield. Do not continue to exit and enter games over and over. This causes your teamates to miss critical shots on our enemies.

11. To be dangerous and effective as a team ,all units are required to try and stick together and defend each other. Follow passive radar orders at all times if you are playing an offensive assault role. Otherwise a flanking mission will be exposed resulting in a failure.

12. Do not use your escape pod unless you are sure to destroy your attacking enemy. This will result in a loss of personal and team points if you do so without destroying one or two enemy units.

Fairly simple no hassle stuff to abide by...!
