Clan Outcast Server Policies
Clan Outcast Battlefield Axiom: War is Hell

Statement of Purpose



We welcome you to join Clan Outcast on the Battlefield! However, before you choose to game on our servers rather than the countless other options you have you must realize the nature of the environment you are going to be entering. The following policies are in place to encourage the highest levels of game-play and character from each player on our servers. Our rules, we believe, require more out of any gamer that visits the server. Furthermore, we refuse to police the server as an arrogant hall monitor in a preparatory school would by handing out "warnings" and threatening player kicks or bans. Finally, if you are looking for ‘softer’ gaming please seek another server where an administrator will protect you from the entire gaming experience.
 

If you can’t take the heat get out of the kitchen.

  • Respect one another.
     
  • Friendly Fire is always ON.  Exercise trigger discipline.
     
  • Anyone using altered game code to will be immediately and permanently banned.
     
  • Anyone using exploits or glitches will be warned once and then issued a week long ban if the behavior persists.
     
  • Clan Outcast does not recognize the idea of ‘base camping’, ‘base raping’, or any variant there of. ANY control point on the map is a viable strike point and if one team can push another team into its main spawn point, that is a completely viable attack zone. The trapped team must fight its way out of the predicament or the team will loose quickly.
     
  • Artillery strikes are allowed in any area of the map; no exceptions.
     
  • Accidental team-kills may, and frequently should, be punished. In real life we must bear the consequences of our mistakes, even our accidents. As we deal with these real consequences we take care to make fewer mistakes. Therefore, in the games we play accidents may be punished just as intentional team killing is punished. If you are punished for your accidents you have the opportunity to grow, and in time, have fewer accidents.  To understand this policy more completely please study Pavlovian classical conditioning at this link
     
  • “Bunny Hopping” players may be kicked on sight.
     
  • Commanders are expected to do their job. Any commander seen driving a vehicle or flying an aircraft will be removed from the server for dereliction of duty.
     
  • No forms of racism, harassment, abuse or vilification will be tolerated.
     
  • Any comments about the server polices should be directed to the Clan Outcast Forums and excluded from the in-game chat.
     
  • No statistic padding behavior will be tolerated.
     
  • “Cowboy up!”
