Code of Conduct

All {S&S} members are expected to follow this Code of Conduct. Failure to follow this Code of Conduct will lead to disciplinary action which may include your dismissal from the clan.

We will refrain from cursing.
We are a family friendly Christian clan and as such our members are expected to avoid cursing. Short hand and abbreviations of curse words is viewed as the same as cursing. For example: LMAO is not acceptable.

We will refrain from using the Lord's name in Vain.
As a Christian clan we cannot endorse such words that use the Lord's name in vain. It is against Scripture and will not be allowed. Again, short hand and/or abbreviations will not be tolerated. For example: omg is not acceptable.

We will refrain from rude/abusive behavior.
We will not tolerate rude or abusive behavior that is intended to harm, belittle, or defame others. This includes name calling, harassment, or other behavior that is not Christ-Like.

We will not hack!
No hacking allowed! Hackers will be banned, removed from the clan, and reported to the proper anti-hack authorities. Our game server(s) load and update banlists from a variety of anti-cheat organizations. We also maintain our own {S&S} banlist that contains people that have shown that they cannot follow our server rules.

We will not exploit!
No exploiting allowed! Exploiters may be banned and removed from the clan.

We will refrain from team killing (TK) out of anger.
We understand that from time to time horse play and rough housing may occur, but at no time will we do so with malice or ill will in our heart. If someone is making us angry we will leave the server, take a break, calm down, and if needed contact a SR Member for conflict resolution. Remember this is only a game and should be fun for all parties, it's only fun if both parties agree.

We will refrain from asking for weapons.
We will not request weapon changes from server admins unless it is expressly allowed. When in doubt we will not ask for weapons and shall be content with the weapons we are given. In addition we will not harass someone else because they have the gun we want. We will wait our turn and be polite, if we want a particular gun assignment we will earn it.

We will refrain from ghosting.
Once you are dead you may only report where you died. No other information may be passed to living players.

We will not spam/drop shots.
We will not spam or drop shots unless expressly allowed via the server rules. We do not allow spam in our servers unless a weapon party is happening. For the definition of spam/drop shots please see the notes at the bottom of the page.

We will strive to treat others with respect.
As Christians we need to strive to treat others with respect and tolerance as Christ would. We also believe our members should exhibit good sportsmanship and fair play.

We will not tolerate religious intolerance in any form.
We will not judge, condemn, nor show intolerance for anyone based on their faith. There is way too much division in the world today because of religion and we will not add to it.

We will strive to represent {S&S} and our Lord in an honorable way.
Our behavior reflects on this clan. Further more as a Christian clan outsiders look upon our behavior as a reflection of Christ. As such we must follow our Code of Conduct at all times. We will also strive to follow the server rules and directions of those peoples in authority when we visit non {S&S} servers. If we are caught and reported violating the server rules of other clans or our own Code of Conduct we may face disciplinary actions, including removal from the clan.
