1. Introduction

Game Community is targeted at adult gamers, 16+, although anyone of mature mind may join.

We are a collection of gamers who all want the same thing. We want tard free play on a state of the art hand-built server. We want to do this in the company of like minded people who we have got to know over a period of time. We want to have a laugh over ventrilo. We want the best maps and the best mods. There is no pressure to join a clan. There is no heirarchy or boss to please, although it might be in your best interests not to give any of the forum moderators or server admin any form of grief. Clans are welcome to use the server as long as they remember they are guests and that its not their personal recruitment grounds. Perhaps once you have gained our trust you may be invited into the core of our community that is =GCHQ=. We want to get to know you!

General rule in Community:
HAVE FUN!

3. Gamecommunity Forum/Chat Rules

Because this is a Community that everybody should be happy in , you have to sometimes create a few rules to maintain harmony and friendship. We did actually start off with none but the that didn't work, so they've grown to try to prevent problems before they happen.

1. No indecent avatars or sigs
2. All 'iffy' post to carry an age limit whether it be 15 or 18 and over in the message header.. if your not sure..just put it anyway or don't post it in the first place.
3. No sigs, avaters or pictures that could be perceived as sexually explicit, crude or showing cruelty to animals.
4. (No active link rule - replace the http with hxtp) - Theres no problem using active links to point at 'respectable sites' if your not sure whether it is or not, just make it inactive.
5. Do not 'get personal' or 'nasty' to another member in forum posts. Keep comments constructive at all times.*
6. No links to porn sites, dwarf pictures or discussions about racism, religion, politics, warez, drugs, cracks or pirate software please.
7. If you have to swear about something, moderate it.
8. Do not use PM's for messages of abusive nature*
9. Please try to keep posts on-topic otherwise the thread will be locked
10. No spamming the forum (Or the spam goblin may delete your post)
11. Email addresses/Photo request/offerings by person(s) claiming to be 15 or under are forbidden unless requested in private by someone of the same age.
12. No socks and sandals.

* A. Do not post problems of a personal nature or disagreements with other members on the forum. It will only lead to deletion and more work for myself and admins, not to mention flaming.

B. Do not talk about the above or slag members off in the open rooms on Ventrillo or MIRC where others could be listening. These things should be sorted out in private or in passworded areas, this includes admins , moderators and visiting clans to the comms server.

Please adhere to these or your account could be suspended.

Due to the increase in Bots, accounts with zero posts or have less than one post in the previous six months will be deleted...... Its easy to create a new one if you wish to rejoin....... This applies to everyone including other clan and community members, so keep active, even if its only irregular visits.

4. =GCHQ=

So you would like to wear the tags?
We do look for a certain type of person, someone who can keep perspective, plays by our rules on any server they play on, not just ours.
You need to contribute to the forum (not spam), get on Ventrilo, our chat software. Members are invited. For more information read the following link: http://forum.gamecommunity.co.uk:8080/viewtopic.php?f=93&t=1870

Having problems at Gamecommunity?
We are a large community with a range of characters and conflicts will arise now and then, its human nature. If somethings bugging you in game/or on voice you can PM Caspius =GCHQ=. He can pass your thoughts onto the other admin anonymously if you so wish. ...im sure theres a solution to solving it...... Theres also RainbowDave=GCHQ= if you want to talk to one of our younger members. He may also be able to help you out. Theres some really good level headed people on here...regards Mr Niceguy

5. GCHQ Secrets

Why is the our first game server, the DC server, called Fawlty Towers? (named after a classic UK comedy series. http://www.fawltysite.net/ ). Well rumour has it that the server DC was hosted on was faulty. This server, which actually was a tower unit, was too unstable to host files so instead of ripping it apart, Battlefield 1942 Desert Combat was put on it. And so the beginning of GCHQ was born.


This is HQ!

How come so many people joined in the first month GCHQ in 2004? Well GCHQ was formed because some members of =ISK= (a clan) decided they had enough of clan politics and wanted something different. So rather than a clan, a non hierarchical community, GCHQ was formed and all these members joined GCHQ straight away.

Isn't GCHQ the headquarters of the top secret intelligence in the UK government? Any affiliation is hearsay and any mention of it means you could be shot although it has been heard that Nicey's tache may be part of some secret government hi-tech weapons programme.
