[*Prolouge*]

The first pointer that everyone must know about [ClansRGay] is that it is not a clan. It's just a tag for your name. And it can seem like a clan, since I use the same brackets and we at least have 3 other members. But we have no stupid functions or secret ranks. I'd like to say that the [ClansRGay] tag is for only the smartest people who are very good at CS, but "a smart CS player" is an oxymoron.

Granted, a clan is a good way to find multiple players for a reliable game, but that's not why I made the [ClansRGay] tag.

[*Origin of the tag*]

Important part of the entire puzzle. Clans are ranging from retards to ok, right? Sure, and I do know that. So why make the name?

I was playing a game of CS that was going quite well. Dust, and all the players were good, so the wins were alternating for teams instead of just having one team win each game for 40 minutes.

I noticed that a guy who was in a few previous games was in a clan that was now populating the server. The players from the clan were peppered through the teams, and that was fine. But then came the kicker.

The apparent "leader" of the clan made the suggestion that the clan should all be on the same team. So, oddly, they all changed at the very next turn. I dunno about you, but when was the last time you asked for the teams to be even and then they're even the very next turn? Never happened for me, sorry.

Surprise surprise, the clan was now on the team opposing mine. Needless to say, we continued a string of losses for several good minutes. When it became apparent that no one was going to even consider evening the teams out, I left.

The very first loss of ours, I ducked my guy behind some crates near our main enterence and typed in a new name. I usually go by HVC, and I ususally add something in brackets for TFC if I want to annoy a particular LPB or asshole player.

Anyway, when I went to sleep, my bro woke up and played a game hosted by a friend over the internet. The guy who hosted, seeing the name I was using, changed his from WreckingCrew to [ClansRGay]Wrecking Crew. That was the start of a small following.

[*Why a homophobic tag?*]

Anyone who considers it homophobic is a homophobe themselves. You see, I see the word "gay" as just that. A word. If you're afraid of other people using it, it goes to show that you're just afraid of the word itself, and probably afraid of homosexuality all together. We aren't. We will take no shame in jacking off to the fight sequences in Dragon Ball Z (since that's what the show was made for in the first place). If you really think there's nothing wrong with homosexuality, then you won't have anything to say about anyone saying the word "gay" about anything. After all, we probably all have a gay relative. A gay relative with a big sweaty cock.

I use the word "gay" in a joking manner. I'm not burning down the house of someone who is gay in my area. It's just a word. People in this day are afraid of words, and that's too bad. I welcome words, they help me communicate in many different levels and manners.

I'm still edgy about even jokingly using the N word, but that's because the OJ trial was big when I was very impressionable. I myself am afraid to even accidentally think that word while around black people, just in case they can read my mind, and then suddenly I'll be in trouble for secretly thinking that word while they're around.

[*The mission statement: how to join*]

Yea, I know that mission statement is an overused slogan, ever since Jerry Maguire came out. :(! Anyway...

If you want to "be in" [ClansRGay], you just add that tag to your name and you're done. If you're on a team against someone else with the [ClansRGay] tag, there's no point in you joining them unless it's to even the teams. Since [ClansRGay] isn't a clan, you aren't really on the same "side" as them just because of the similarity in your name. If you want to switch teams to join them, fine, do whatever you want, as long as it doesn't mess with the game.

[*The mission statement, player's rules*]

We only have one request for you. PLAY FAIR. Keep the teams even, don't make fun of people who ask to keep the teams even, and don't TK for no fucking reason. Of course, if you're a TKer, you're gonna TK anyway. I just hope you don't add ClansRGay. That would suck.

We at ClansRGay do not give a damn how well you play. You suck or you rule, LPB or HPW, P90 rusher or AWP camper, you can "join" ClansRGay. We don't care. We just want you to have fun playing the game fairly, and as a team. In other words, PLANT THE FUCKING BOMB. Or DEFUSE THE FUCKING BOMB.

And it goes without saying that you should only team switch if the teams are uneven. If your team just sucks, then go to another server. That's what we do.

[*The mission statement, how to treat real clans*]

The one thing that the founders don't do during games is shove our name in clan member's faces. We don't join servers just to piss off clan members. When you join a game, even with the ClansRGay tag, do NOT spout off about clan members.

Unless of course, they're all a bunch of fucking assholes who won't even the teams and just want to frag for 3 straight hours. But then, in that situation, actions speak louder than words. So buy an Aug, 20 clips, and full out armor. Then, toast the WHOLE DAMN TEAM.

[*Our play suggestion*]

Please don't turn the game into Counter-Strike Deathmatch. It's the entire reason why CS was made. DM gets old fast. Just look at Quake 3. A superior game that is ruined by a lame premise: Deathmatch only games played with single player-type weapons.

Play fair, even if you suck.
