That's one of the most stupid rules ever, especially for a new mod. Why not just assume people not using a tag don't have a clan?

This is the stupidity that hurts FF. Its been out for 2 weeks .
If you need clan play make a locked server also and add password to the hostname.

Well if you don't agree with the rules why not simply skip this server? It's up to the server admins to set server rules and if you don't like it then nobody is gonna stop you from choosing other servers to play on. Geez, bunch of whiners.
GL with the server, hope it'll soon be as actively played on as the old tfc clan-styled servers (which had the same rules).

GJ on whining about the whiners. The rule was retarded in TFC and guess what, it still is. And yes I will skip this and any other server with similar rules. To it's credit tho it hasn't went mad with class restrictions.

That rule makes sure people actually read the rules on the server. If they do not have the [] before their name, then they either a) did not read the rules or b) refuse to follow them.

and you can separate the clanned from the non clanned wich is now that FF is just out and there are alot of people about and alot of clans foming, actually a big deal!
Spotting a good player with a [] tag might mean you have got yourself a good addition to your team (if he wants, ofc).

so tell me, whats the difference again between "name" and "[]name"?

what are you trying to achieve by making people not in a clan put empty brackets in front of their name? i never have and never will understand this one, especially in a new mod which we dont want to turn the few potential players away that might pick up the game

Very good example tharr, I also like this rule because you can tell if a server has good admins, if they're enforcing rules like the above, then you can tell you won't get random people who like to cause havoc joining the server

so decided to test this server out, first kicked because i had a high ping (you guys have nfi about netcode now do you?), which isnt even a rule mind you

second time kickbanned, after i said half the rules (especially the half that arent written anywhere and are made up along the way) are crap so dont bother enforcing them

was playing offence, no ovo or anything like that.

awesome job guys, ill go play tf2 now

i had constant solid 300 ping with no spikes (otherwise how did i hit all my concs when i switched to med?), wasnt lagging past anything, nice try on that one though

where is offence pyro in your rules? i wasnt shooting enemy o, so i dont know what the problem was there? or is this another stupid TFC carryover...

you can make up whatever rules you want like you said, but at least stick them in your rules list rather than hiding the pathetic and illogical ones from the world.

password on the server would be good too. at least on other servers with clan style play people are notified either by ingame white text (ufg) or rcon say (fortress smackdown). if i was just a newbie happening across the server (given its one of the few with players) id be rcon kicked without knowing wtf happened (rules arent obvious to the average player), and go back to TF2. great welcome to FF thatd be.

if you dont care about FF future thats fine, but maybe dont advertise the server here if your only interests are playing by the same secret society mentality that has sustained tfc in its dying hours (where nobody actually cared about getting new players into the game).

and nobody has explained the difference between name and []name yet? isnt it obvious someone isnt in a clan if they dont have tags?

I do agree that by itself the []-tag a pretty stupid rule. But if you look closely, the people with [] tags are usually above average in skill (and often also intelligence) and can therefore easily be recognized in servers where the tag isn't required. It also somewhat shows their dedication and willingness to obey the server rules as Imhi said.

Get rid of unnessisary things from rules seems to be a good rule of thumb. Being harrassed or kicked for not having a pointless addition to your name is the height of stupidity and serves no purpose other than feeding clanner's already over inflated ego.
