2.Any dispute that does not have proper documentation WILL NOT have action taken.
Tournament Organizing:
All organizers within the team, have freedom to create, establish, and host their own tournaments and events. The only rule is that you can not under any circumstance discriminate against team members.
Team meetings
once per month there will be a team meeting. This meeting will be to discuss team business. Specifically choosing officers, voting on team business, n' stuff'n'things
officers
the officers will be elected from the team. we will have a meeting where names will be suggested. you can suggest other peoples names but not your own .the suggestion has to be second'd then there will be a vote. if 51% or more vote yes then the person will become a officer. there will be a meeting every month to discuss team business and vote in new officers.
general officer dutys will be
mediating conflicts
teaching new members
negotiating with other teams
running events
ect....
voting on team speak owner/s
some officers will also be chosen to run specific thing like ts, forums, ect... and will be re voted every meeting.
officers and members are equals and should treat each other as such. this is a game.
inactivity
if the team has 70 members or less then no inactivity kicks. once 71 is reached members can be kicked after 2 months of inactivity. there will be a vote. once the team is at 80 the inactivity timer is 1 month. at 95 it is 2 weeks. members who get kicked for inactivity do not have to be permanently kicked. they can be voted back in when they log back online.
mediation
if two or more members have a dispute a neutral 3rd party officer will mediate. this is to prevent drama and fighting and encourage talking these things out. the disputing party’s will suggest officers they want to meditate until both party’s suggest the same one. If one or both party’s do not wish to talk it out that is there choice.
do not grief members when they leave. asking why is ok. telling them "they suck" is not.
breaking the rules of the game/ts can result in a kick. linking porn is not ok.
team speak
everyone is given C. if it is abused it will be taken away. the member/officer/s in charge of teamspeak will decide on those matters. This position can be taken away by the officers in a vote.
this is a living document and subject to change. a vote with 66% of the team in favor is needed to change the by laws.
*alternate accounts
members may have 2 accounts in team at a time. Main + alt.
members may have alts in other teams.
*alternate accounts hereby know as "alts"
new members
24-48 hour voting period. 2/3 majority needed.
requirements to join
~must be 16 or older however exceptions can be made
~must have finished story line
~you need a team member to vouch for you
new members will be on probation for 1 month.
Alternate accounts may join
probation entails not getting C yet and less leniency towards breaking the rules.
