From Today's Newsletter to about the Banned Clan

[shane]

Once again we have had to tell a clan they are not welcome here... Now many have wondered what lead up to this and why has this punishment been so harsh. Well let's take a look at the history of this clan that is infamous for lying and cheating at Urgent Fury.

 

Back up 2 years ago as we were well underway in a Modern Warfare 2 tournament when it is brought to light that many members of this clan are reported as using glitches to increase their custom loadout count giving them an small but unfair advantage against other clans in the tournament. After denying this several times, proof is provided of not only how they are doing it but gloating about how they got away with it in UF. Initially they were removed from the tournament and given a stiff suspension.

 

Later down the road after much discussion, we allowed the clan to return but with a suspension of the leader. All seemed to be running smooth when we discovered the leader was playing under another name as well as acting as the clan rep under another name as well. At this point we told the leader enough is enough, you obviously do not respect the community enough to follow rules and your clan's time at Urgent Fury is done.

 

Now the rest of the story... since our last Black Ops tournament, we received several PMs from the "New" leader of this clan and that the former leader had been removed from the clan asking for acceptance back in to UF. Funny thing is, this clan was competing at another site where not only was the player still on the roster and the clan rep, he also was listed as the leader of the clan.

 

And then recently, knowing that our new Tournament Admin may not catch on, he created yet another account on the forums and weaseled his way into UF Unrest... of course that did not last long as the directors quickly squashed that attempt.

 

On top of that as many of the community members pointed out, they tried to fill out the New Clan Submission with false information.

 

Acts like this will not be tolerated by any clans, if you don't have Honor or Dignity, then you will find yourself without a place to play. And if you are a member of one of these types of clans, we highly encourage you to find a new clan.
