HSA CODE OF CONDUCT ( HSA COD )



1. Every HSA member must read and understand the Xbox Live Terms of Service and Code of Conduct.


"Obviously, you play on Xbox Live and had to agree to the terms of service in order to participate in XBL, so it goes without saying that we expect you to follow the guidelines.


2. HSA does not tolerate discrimination, racism, or harassment, by or towards, any member of HSA in game lobbies, chat forums, or gaming situations of any type.


"When you are participating in the forums, XBL or any other activity that is part of the HSA community, you represent HSA, if you have changed your gamer-tag, and you should represent HSA in a positive fashion. You made the decision to be part of this community and you should, by example, encourage others to do the same. Do not make fun of anyone because of their race, gender, religion, region of the world, accent, etc Treat everyone with respect. ( NO DISRESPECT) ~ NDR EZRA


3. Leaders within HSA are responsible for: the organization of all squad matches and practices, posting match scores, maintaining professional game play during squad matches, and oversight of performance and behavior of lower ranking members.


"This doesnt apply to you yet, since you are a new recruit, but it should inspire you to gain higher ranks so that you can start to take part in the employment of these activities as a leader. Additionally, this also gives you a guideline of what to expect from your leaders so that you can, politely and with tact, help them make sure that they are setting the proper example and leading effectively. If you see something that seems "off then you should work to get promoted so that you can have more influence in taking care of your other members


4. A HSA member: NEVER LEAVES ANOTHER HSA MEMBER BEHIND.


"This is pretty self explanatory. If a member goes down in the game and can be revived, then revive them. It also applies to other situations though: If a member has a question, concern, or other issue that you can help them with, please do so. We like to think of HSA as being a family and the way that we promote that way of thinking is by taking care of each other.


5. All members have an "Open Mic Policy" to speak with Leaders and Founders on any issues or with any ideas.


"You, as a member of HSA, have the right to talk to your leadership about issues, both your own and ones within the squad/division/clan. However, please make sure that you follow proper protocol and take the issue to your LT or CPT first so that they are aware of the issue. Additionally, you can post any issues on the forums, which are an invaluable resource and tool. Check out the forums and make sure to sign petitions or start your own topics.


6. A HSA member takes pride in his or her membership and is encouraged to change their gamer tag within 1 month.


"You absolutely do not have to change your gamer-tag in order to be a happy and successful member of HSA. Many players are just casual gamers that want to have a large player base to associate with. However, if you want to get promoted to the rank of SGT or higher, then you will need to change your gamer-tag in order to reflect your affiliation to HSA. By changing your gamer-tag, you are advertising HSA. This is a good thing! When you change your gamer-tag, you are saying "I am proud to be in HSA and I want everyone to know that HSA is awesome enough to add to my gamer-tag. As long as you continue to represent HSA positively, this will lead to people asking you about the "HSA in your gamer-tag and that will give you the chance to talk about HSA and possibly get a new recruit!


7. HSA members must maintain a professional manner and attitude during play as well as within lobby chat.


"If you are in a lobby and someone starts cussing you out or talking trash, MUTE THEM! Show that you are the better person and just use the "Mighty Mute Button. Not only does that show the other person that they have no power over your emotions, but it also shows the other players in the lobby that members of HSA maintain a high standard of conduct, which will possibly lead to people wanting to join and then you will be able to recruit them! You also need to make sure to maintain proper conduct when using the forums.


8. HSA members are not permitted to be a part of any other gaming league unless they are within the alliance of HSA


"Make that they are allied clans of HSA , or at-least tell your senior director about them


9. The list of prohibited activities includes, but is not limited to: Illegal Drugs, Software Alteration, Modding of Games, Console Manipulation, Other Forms of Piracy, Racketeering, Money laundering, Blackmail, Murder, Child Pornography, Prostitution, Bestiality, Incest, Slavery, Fraud, Cannibalism, Theft, Vigilantism, and Harassment.


"Really you can joke around but please don't drag anyone else with you if your serious.


10. Acts of Treason Will Not Be Tolerated. Immediate action will take place



"Obviously if your pissed off or you hate us please just leave, it's less drama to deal with.


11. Players Must Me a Mature Age Of 13 years old. NO SQUEAKERS


"Please we don't to deal with immature kids.
