I admit I 'borrowed' these values from the martial arts my family and I studied.
If you're serious, know them, play them, and hopefully live them!
This is YOUR clan; if any of you wants to change or add to these, put that forward!
I WANT you to make this clan what YOU think it should be! I welcome your inputs.
Hopefully these will become a way of life for each of us; making us a better person, follower, and leader. You cannot be a good leader if you've never learned to follow!

COURTESY / INTEGRITY / PERSEVERENCE / SELF-CONTROL / INDOMITABLE SPIRIT

COURTESY: The old 'Do unto others as you'd have done unto you!' We never place ourselves above others. If a grenade lands amidst 4 of us, I expect to see you fighting over who lies on it first. We help weaker players; not just call them noobs, etc. Above all, we stick together like glue! We never, ever discriminate or make derogatory comments concerning a person's race, ethnic origin or background, religion, or sex. One may verbalize their own views on world politics without being crude. We reserve the right to, in no way, accept terrorism as anything other than murdering the innocent!

INTEGRITY: On and off-line, please! We don't want to shame our clan. We do the right thing in as much as it is possible; obey the law, do your duty (whether that's at work, school, or on the job), and you honor the clan and, I feel in playing THIS game, the Army men and women who wear the uniform and would die to keep us free and untouched. We need not scream and shout obscenities; just report troublesome players to any of us admins and they will be gone.

PEREVERENCE: We NEVER, ever give up! We may run to displace, we may run to take up a better field of fire or ambush position, or to flank, but we NEVER just run away. We may run into obstinate players; We persevere to try to get them to alter their behavior. If they won't, we report them to admin.

SELF-CONTROL: Remain calm in as much as it is possible. Discipline yourselves to think sometimes instead of just reacting to a threat. Follow leaders when they call directions instead of doing what you think is best. Do not return violence for violence, anger for anger; reamin in control. The instant you lose your cool, the enemy rejoices! You lost as soon as you stopped being in control of your self. It's easy to lose control and call someone a cheater; instead report them to admin! It's hard to stay cool when you crawl up on North hill and see three of ACU's best coming at you from 3 angles.

INDOMITABLE SPIRIT: We will shrink from NO challenge. We will never fail to defend the wronged or to attempt our objectives in spite of who we are facing. We will place the mission and the good of the team above our own interests and desires. We decide NOW to believe that WE CAN DO IT! Face it now: There are better players than each of us; there will always be those better than us. But we attack anyway; we defend anyway; we remain calm; we think and then react if we can; we never exhibit what could even be construed as cowardice; ever.

REMEMBER THOSE WHO GAVE ALL!
