chat with your clan members where ever you are. You can also join a "Clan-War" with clan members.
Requirements ------------
* The clan master needs 1000 BP to organize a clan. * The clan master is required to acquire four members in order to form a clan. * Both the clan master or promoter should be at the level of 10 or above. * The maximum number of clan members is 64.
Once all the conditions above are met, the clan master and the promoter can create a clan gathered around the same server and channel. Upon activating the "Clan List" you would see a menu, "Create a Clan" on the screen as you have not joined a clan yet. Press the menu to activate the dialogue channel for clan creation.
With the exception of /clan leave and /clan msg, clan commands are only usable by the clan master or an admin.
/clan open <Clan Name> Start a new clan. /clan close <Clan Name> Close the clan currently open. /clan invite <name> Invite the person to your clan. /clan leave Voluntarily withdraw from the clan. /clan dismiss <name> Force that person to leave the clan. /clan promote <name> <authority> Promotes <name> to admin. /clan msg <message> Send a message to your clan. Same as #.
==================== IVC. Color Commands ====================
You can used colored font in any chat in the game. Type ^#, the # being the color of what you want your font to be. Do not use a space after the number. As one might think, there are people with elaborately colored macros, and some specifically made to distract you.
Colors ------
* ^0: Dark Gray * ^1: Red * ^2: Green * ^3: Blue * ^4: Yellow * ^5: Dark red * ^6: Dark green * ^6: Dark blue * ^7: Dark yellow * ^8: Brown * ^9: White
There are no (known) color commands for orange (admin/chatroom) or light blue (clanchat). The regular font color is also a different shade of white than ^9.

------------------- V. Playing the Game -------------------
I shouldn't even have to put this in here, but since some people obviously need to be reminded, I put this here.
============================== VA. General Gameplay Etiquette ==============================
* THE GOLDEN RULE: Do not act towards people in a way you wouldn't want them to act towards you. I cannot repeat this enough. Do not be an ass. You may be a 15 year old, but try not to act like one.
Offensive ---------
* Namecalling * Complaining * Corpseshooting * Harassment * Spamming * Cheating
* If spamming requests in the lobby for killswapping didn't work the first five times, what makes you think spamming it another 15 times will work?
* Stop complaining, nobody wants to hear it. As Nothingxs said on the GunzOnline forum:
"I'm just going to close any threads that argue if we should have slashshooting or not. I'm also going to close any threads where all you do is whine about how people spray and how little skill it takes to do such.
If they're killing you, THEY'RE not doing something wrong. YOU ARE. Learn, get better and adapt. Complain here and you'll watch me lock your thread. Neither are going away, they're going to stay forever. If you have ideas on how to EXPAND on the game, then you can make a thread about that in the SUGGESTIONS SECTION. If you're just going to condemn how people play and the people who try to learn or play in that style, then please go whine about it to your friends on AIM instead.
Noone (sic) cares how unbalanced you think it is if all you're going to do is whine at the top of your lungs. We've had a few big threads and countless smaller ones about it, already. Enough is enough."
* Nobody likes drama. Do not get ticked off because someone killed you. Chill out, go make a sandwich. Do not be a vindictive punk and try to get someone kicked because they're better than you. Follow the Golden Rule and you'll be fine.
* Some people will hate you for typekilling, or 'tking,' which is killing someone while they\u2019re typing. It's generally frowned upon to kill someone when they're typing, but then again it's the typer's fault for standing there. The solution? Type when you're dead or don't complain when someone kills you. You can tell someone is typing if a speech bubble appears over their head, but it's not always visible.
If someone sees you typing and decides to pass you by instead of killing you, return the favor and don't shoot them in the back. I usually won't kill someone who's typing, but don't put it past other people. Most of the time, the same people who TK complain when they get TK'd themselves.
* Do not complain about what weapons an opponent is using. If you died, you died, and should move on. Instead of complaining that you got daggershanked in a corner, you should instead try to avoid getting yourself shanked. Likewise, this can be said of all weapons: quit bellyaching and adapt.
=============== VA1. Game Rules ===============
These are self-imposed rules set by the room creator. They are not reinforced by MAIET, ijji, or the Gunz program itself.
================== VA1a. Rejoin Games ==================
"# rejoin," is a game when the time is set to infinite and the kill limit is set to whatever number suits the game (usually the highest).
Everybody plays normally until a person gets 5 kills before the limit, at which the person will exit the game into the intrusion screen, and then rejoin. This will reset their kill count and they will join the game with 0 kills, 0 deaths. The purpose of this is to continually keep the game going with everybody getting as much experience as possible.
If someone doesn't seem to be paying attention or is ignoring the rules, kick them. As a player in the game, it is your responsibility to help keeping the game going and voting 'y.' If you see people saying that they can't start the vote, do it yourself.
Before, people would DM until the game ended, but recently, rejoin games have become the norm.
============ VA1b. Bowing ============
Bow rules are the rules applied inside most informal duels and sometimes in Duel mode. "Bow rules" are straight forward: all duels are 1 versus 1 and you must bow to a person before you engage them. The other person must acknowledge your bow by bowing back. Wait a moment after your opponent bows and then fight. Bow rules are usually done in gladiator games, team games, or in 1vs1 situations.
================== VA1c. Killswapping ==================
Killswapping, also called 'swapping,' is what the name implies: you and another player take turns killing each other for experience. This works well at lower levels, since the gap between levels is small. At higher levels, there are much better ways to get experience than by trading kills.
================== VA1d. Lineswapping ==================
The same thing as killswapping, but instead of using only two people, lineswapping is done with multiple people. Most of the time, lineswapping is done as a Town deathmatch. People get into a line in front of the clocktower and take their turns killing the person in front of them. The first person gets killed by the second. The second stands where the first person was, and then the third person kills them. Order isn't usually stressed too much while doing this, because people respawn at different locations and it may take them longer to get back into the line. You are expected to wait your turn, however. People killing out of turn, or randomly shooting others, is prohibited. Lineswaps tend to become chaotic quickly if a person disrupts it.
================= VA1e. Naked Games =================
Simply put, you join the game naked. NO SHIRT, NO PANTS, NO GLOVES, NO BOOTS. Joining a game with shoes and boots on is NOT naked. Nobody particularly cares whether or not you have rings on, because you can't actually see the rings on the person and the gains by rings is small compared to most other equipment. Kills and experience come pretty fast. I suggest using high ammo spray weapons, or low ammo power weapons. Machineguns and rockets rule these games.
Naked games also tend to be Berserk to make kills even easier and are usually # rejoin games.
==================== VA1f. Regional Games ====================
In an effort to keep pings low, there are regional games. Most list countries, such as "USA/Canada" or they may even go as far as to list their time zone. If making your own regional game is problematic, you can make one in a private channel. This will hopefully reduce the number of people outside your region.
======================== VA1g. Attack and Defense ========================
Attack and Defense is a game mode unto itself and my personal favorite rules. Attack and Defense is when a person makes a MANSION team deathmatch and take turns each round, attacking each other's bases. The defending team may only stay in the area from the spawn point to the ledge of that level at the end of the hallway, and no further. The attacking team has free range of the whole mansion.
About ATT and DEF -----------------
* USE 5 MINUTE TIME LIMITS ONLY! I cannot stress this enough! 5 minutes is more than enough time for either team to wipe each other out. Anything more than 5 minutes increases the chance of the attacking team camping and potshotting.
* Red team always goes first.
* Do NOT turn off team balance! 'Nuff said.
* Discourage cheaters: Kick them immediately, regardless of which team they're on at the time. Cheating encourages more cheating, which may cause the non-attacking team to leave the base in revenge. At this point, all chaos breaks loose until people stay in the base again.
* If a long period of time has gone by without the attacking team committing to attacking the defending team, the defending team can warn the attackers by starting a countdown from 10. If the attackers have not initiated an invasion
