Rule 1: Trust, Honor, Respect

       These are the three tenants that are to be lived by whether it be in the game, or in real life.

Trust: To be honest to your fellow teammates. Never deceiving and always believing a SOS member above all others. We are not just a clan, we are a family.

Honor: To always harbor good feelings and uplifting behavior towards each other. We are here to bring you up, not take you down.

Respect: To accept your fellow members for who they are and abide by their personal rules. If someone doesn't want to be treated a certain way then respect him/her and don't do it.

REMEMBER: The SOS symbol stands for equality from top to bottom.

Rule 2: No Racism

       The race, creed or religion of a SOS member shall not be the topic of jokes, cruel remarks or insults. Disrespect of any kind over race, creed or religion is an automatic suspension.

Rule 3: No Lying or Cheating 

       Honesty is pretty self-explanatory. Don't do or say anything that even comes close to be considered as lying or cheating in game or in the forums.

Rule 4: No Sexism 

       The gender or sexual orientation of a SOS member shall not be the topic of jokes, cruel remarks or insults. Disrespect of any kind over gender is an automatic suspension.

Rule 5: No Disrespect towards Commanders or Scouts. 

       This is a major NO NO. If you disrespect an appointed Commander or Scout of SOS, you will be dealt with in a manner more severe than a normal rule breaking. Possible termination and banning.

Rule 6: Gamer Tags

If you wish to change your name on your console you must notify leadership so that we can change your name in the team roster. Excessive name changes will not be tolerated.

Rule 7: In game Clan Tags

       If you wish to change your name on your console you must notify leadership so that we can change your name in the team roster. Excessive name changes will not be tolerated.

Rule 8: Rage Quitting

Rage Quitting is expressly prohibited. If you leave in the middle of the game because your mad at it, mad at someone, mad at a hacker, or mad in general, unless it has to do with PERSONAL life such as wife, kids, puking your guts out, or anything equally or more serious, then you are a rage quitter.

Rule 9: Social Media

       While being a member of SOS, you will follow, like or subscribe to all SOS social media sites. You will promote SOS and try to get more followers for the clan. If you have a Twitch account broadcast whenever possible. We are not only a clan but also a brand and promotion is key to our success.

Rule 10: Recruiting

       Recruiting for SOS is done by everyone, but only the leadership can approve recruits to join the clan. Whomever feels like they know someone who might be interested in joining the clan make sure to get up with a commander or scout to get their initiation started. Tell them how SOS works and what they need to do to stay a member.

​

Rule 11:

       We have ZERO tolerance when it comes to drama. Also one thing that can cause drama is misinterpretation, which means NO member is allowed to use curse words in anything that is put into text that has to do with the clan. (clan chats, clan facebook group, discord, ect.) Cursing in text form is usually misinterpreted as expressing anger which in turn causes unnecessary drama.

​

Rule 12:

       You will be required to join the clan discord.

​

Punishment:

1 Rule Break:

        Verbal Warning

2 Rule Breaks:

        Probation. Meaning, if you are a Commander or Scout you will be demoted to Soldier until you have resolved the reason you were demoted. As for Soldiers if you are on probation you will not be allowed to be involved in ANY clan activity including clan based tournament teams, until you can resolve the reason you were put on probation.   

3 Rule Breaks:

       SOS Leadership Tribunal Sentencing. If found guilty of all 3 broken rules, you will be terminated and possibly banned depending on the severity of the broken rules.

The following will result in automatic suspensions:

Not wearing Clan tags.

Disrespect towards Fellow Clan Members.

Hacking or cheating.

Redeeming Yourself:

If you were convicted falsely and can provide substantial proof while suspended you may bring this to one of the Commander and Chiefs.

If you were terminated and feel that you have changed. You can reapply to SOS after 2 weeks of termination.

If you were banned from SOS, you must get the approval of every SOS member and Leader to remove the banning. Once removed you are on termination status and will have a chance to reapply after 2 weeks.

If you are Blacklisted you cannot rejoin SOS and there is no way around it. Blacklisting only happens in the most extreme cases and requires approval from all leaders.

Reason for rules: These rules may be harsh but they are very easy to follow. If you break them, it simply states that you do not have Trust, Honor, or Respect.

​

Also it may sound complicated but basically you'd have to do something really severe to be kicked out of the clan. And remember it's a game and try to have fun with it.
