Clan Rules

MISSION STATEMENT FEAR NONE was created in June 2009 to bring together playstation gamers from around the globe and to provide them a Head Quarters (web site) where they can share their backgrounds, experience, and interests in teamwork and tactics, as well as providing them with an environment that allows a "friends-first" experience in the online community.

NO CHEATING Definition of a Cheat: any modifications to the PS3 or official games and associated files or any utilization of a program that is meant to alter the behavior of the game in a way that either gives an advantage to players using it or gives a disadvantage to players not using it. Examples: wall hacks & speed cheats Definition of a Glitch: use of any behavior of the game that is either undocumented or unintended by the manufacturer in order to increase the own personal performance or decrease the performance of others. Examples: Being able hide in a rock or shoot through a wall that you normally can not. No FN members will cheat or glitch under any circumstances. No FN member is allowed to evaluate cheats in order to detect their use without express FN Executive Committee consent. No FN member will associate with a known cheat or cheat maker under any circumstances. Where possible all FN members will avoid known glitches. Should credible accusations of cheating or glitching occur, the member will be subject to an investigation by the Chain of Command (CoC). If found guilty, the member will be instantly discharged.

ALLIANCES FN does not form any alliances with other organizations. However we do have a friends community belief where non-members are welcome on our servers and forums. FN members are not to become moles or spies in other clans.

CHAIN OF COMMAND FN uses a Chain of Command (CoC) based on the military and as such members are expected to abide by the structure without exception. Any issues have to be processed by the CoC. No member will jump over with its requests unless ordered to do so. All orders have to be followed, whether in game, training or in daily duties and are not subject to a discussion. Questions or issues are to be handled via the CoC. High Priority issues, especially those that affect all go FN must be handled by FN leader

PARTICIPATION All members are in constant mode of training and as such we have practices.Their purpose is to improve our teamwork and tactics.

FRIENDSHIP AND REAL LIFE We are primarily are a group of friends and as such have a “Friends first” motto. However heated issues can occur. If an issue can not resolved on a reasonable and friendly basis, the CoC will step in and their decision is final. We accept all real life needs and commitments and will not put any member into a decision between real life success and FN and where possible, we will attempt to help in any way we can. If a member leaves FN on good terms, the decision will be respected and not questioned. He will be granted a honorable discharge and will be welcomed back if he chooses to return at a later date.

RANKS, AWARDS AND POSITIONS Ranks and awards (medals & badges) will be handed out based on the following sorted principles: • Attendance points system • Dedication • Conduct • Teamwork • Performance Positions will be assigned based on the following sorted principles: • Dedication • Leadership abilities • Teamwork

CONDUCT Members **WILL** respect each other regardless of their origin, nationality, age, gender, race, religious beliefs or creed. The same level of respect will be given to non-members. Members will show dignity, honor and integrity both in and outside of FN. Any insults or lack of respect towards FN and it's members by non-members are to be ignored and left uncommented. We do not need to defend ourselves. Cursing and all language of an offensive nature will not be tolerated, whether be on forums or any type of voice or text communications. No member will issue religious or political matters or respond on one of them. No member will broadcast issues involving nudity, sexual content or any other adult content whether be by images, text or voice communications. No member will question policies and regulations in public. They are to use the CoC to issue their thoughts. Sportsmanship behavior is mandatory. Always remember that to the public, you are not perceived as an individual but as a representative of FN.

ALLEGIANCE FN demands the same level of commitment and loyalty from all its members, as such we do not allow FN members to participate in any other group that supports any game franchise on a platform that we support. Failure to abide by this will result in immediate discharge.

COMMUNICATIONS The official language of FN is English however we are a multi-national group and will assist members with only basic English skills as much as possible.
