ROBOTS IN DISGUISE (RID) is an online gaming community/clan based around the theme of Transformers.

We play a variety of games as a community (see our current list) with the following titles played as a clan:

NO CLAN DIVISIONS AT PRESENT

GENERAL:

Members can be recruited from anywhere (regardless of what game is played).

Recruitment is based on attitude and activity level anddecided by probation and member vote.

Members must take on a Transformer character name as their identity and use this in all RID communication and Clan Division gaming (wherever possible).


COMMUNITY GAMES:

Members are encouraged but not obliged to play games under their RID tag and name.

Games can be added to the community forum list by member request although will be removed if interest or activity is low. There is a restriction of one board per game and these will be public access only.

Official RID matches cannot be played while a game is part of the community list.

CLAN DIVISIONS:

Members must own and play the required clan game to be recruited into that division (and must not already be a member of another clan playing that game).

Members must play the clan game under their RID tag and player name (whereever possible).

By joining a clan division members agree to attend as many practise sessions and matches as required, whenever these are scheduled.

During practises/matches members must pay attention and follow the instructions of their Division Commander and Squad Leaders.

CODE OF CONDUCT

All members of RID must adhere to the following:

Fair and honourable play with no malicious team-killing, spawn-killing or unnecessary trash-talk.

Honest play with no hacks or exploitable glitches of any kind to be used for any reason.

To be as active as possible and play alongside other members regularly. Members that become inactive without reasonable explanation will be removed .

To respect the opinions of all other members and keep all communication civilised and inoffensive.

Remember these are only games – so have fun!

It is the personal choice of each member who they allow to be added to their contact list.

LEAVING RID

Members may leave RID at any time by personal choice. They must post a notice in the forum stating their intention and reasons.

Members can be discharged from the community on the grounds of dishonourable behaviour or unreasonable continuous inactivity. Those removed for these reasons may not be allowed to re-join.

Once a member has left RID their character name may become available for use by new members and if they rejoin they may have to select a new ID (only if their previous one is unavailable).
