Detailed Instructions 

1. HAVE A WORKING MICROPHONE

There are basically no exceptions to this. If you plan to get a microphone or headset today or tomorrow, then go ahead and fill out an app, but if you have no plans to get one or if it will be a couple weeks don't bother applying until you get one.

We use teamspeak as a main communications hub. Additionaly, we may also choose to use the native in-game voice communications with games that have it.

 

2. REVIEW OUR CODE OF ETHICS

This is the bedrock of our core values as a team. Honor, dedication, anti-cheating, communication, and most importantly, respect. We are an international organization with members of all ages and nationalities and we have zero tolerance for players who do not treat others with respect.
 
When you become a member of our organization you represent us and we value our reputation in the gaming community at large. We do our best to uphold these values, and to become a member we require you to do the same.
 
 
 
 
3. FILL OUT AN APPLICATION
 
Here you will get to setup your membership / website account. You will choose your callsign and let us know a little bit about yourself. When possible, please match your callsign to your in-game name as closely as you can.
 
While filling out your application you will see a note that says you cannot use hotmail or msn. This is not entirely true. You do not have to change your email account. Just note that due to hotmail spam filters, the messages coming from our website may get blocked by hotmail. If yours are blocked, it will be vital for you to follow step 4 below.
 
Before you fill out an application, please read item 4 below.
 
 
 
4. CHECK YOUR EMAIL INBOX AND PRIVATE MESSAGE INBOX
 
Communications is a critical requirement for membership in our organization. After you fill out your application, be sure to check both your email and your new private message inbox frequently for messages.
 
 
 
The leaders of the game you applied for will communicate with you through one or both of these areas fairly quickly. Often, they will communicate with you before they approve your application for membership, so it's very important you monitor these two areas of communication.

WHILE YOU ARE WAITING...
 
While you are waiting to hear back from the team leaders, check out the website of the game you applied for. See the image below for how to find each game's website.
 
Finally, if after 24 hours you do not hear back from someone please visit your private message inbox and look for the message called, "Application Submitted…" and use the REPLY button inside that message to request a check on the status of your application.
