The War Rock Clan Tournament System Guide

Clan Rules and Policies
Clans must abide by all Rules and Policies set forth in the Terms of Use (TOU), End License User Agreement (EULA), and Game Policies found on the website. Use of any part of the Clan and Tournament system constitutes agreement to all terms and conditions set forth by K2 Network. Clan leaders are responsible for all members of the clan. K2 staff may take action against any clan(s) associated with any account(s) if the account is found in violation of War Rock rules and policies while engaged in activates related to the Clan and Tournament system.
Creating a Clan
Participating in an active War Rock clan gives you the opportunity to compete in exciting tournaments, play scheduled matches against other teams, and be part of a thriving competitive online community.

In order to create a clan, simply log into the War Rock Clan and Tournament System web page, and browse to the Registration Page. From there, a list of customizable options is supplied in order to create a clan with its own unique identity.

Purchasing the Clan Registration only allows the purchaser to create one clan, if the customer creates a clan and it is approved then customer disbands it or it is disbanded by staff for violation of the rules then the customer will be required to purchase another Clan Registration to create a new clan. Clan Registration does not allow the customer to create an unlimited number of clans. It is a one time use feature.
Note: Effective January 23, 2008. Players who want to register a clan will need to purchase Clan Registration from the warrock.net Marketplace.

Clan Avatar
A Clan Avatar will be used to represent a clan in War Rock, and in the Clan Tournament System. To select a Clan Avatar, simply provide a web address to any JPEG image that is hosted on the internet. If the image is stored on a computer, it will need to be uploaded to a web site first. There are many websites where avatars can be uploaded; Imageshack provides free and easy image hosting. Clan Avatars must conform to the War Rock avatar policies found here.
Note: All Clan Avatars are automatically resized to 51x51 pixels
Some websites will not allow a image to be uploaded or cross linked to another website and this is why clan avatars show up as white boxes in the game. It is a form of copy protection and it is best to copy a image and then upload it to a file sharing website like Imageshack.
Clan Name
A clan name may be up to 25 characters, and may contain letters, numbers, standard symbols (+, -, (, ), etc). Using high ASCII symbols to represent English characters is not permitted. Clan names must conform to the War Rock Clan policies found here.

Clan Back Story

Many clan leaders include the details of what modes they like to play, their skill level, and their vision, but players are welcome to write whatever they wish, as long as the content is considered appropriate as per the War Rock policies found here.
The Clan Approval Process
To ensure that all participants receive a clean experience within our community, all clans must be approved by K2 Network before being allowed to participate within the system. After a request to create a clan is submitted, it is sent to a queue that is actively monitored by the Game Master staff at K2 Network. Clans that abide by the War Rock policies are generally approved within 24 hours. If the clan is not approved, a new request may be submitted once any necessary modifications have been made.
