Chapter I

Member Etiquette

 

§ 1

Each member will show unconditionally respect to one another, which is regardless of nationality, age, gender,   race, religious beliefs, appearance or disabilities.

 

§ 2

PCS. 1.

We ask members to refrain from excessive hateful speech, simply because it does little to aid the club in productive communications and overall morale of the crew.

PCS. 2.

We do accept the use of impulsive speech, when in the heat of battle or just roaming around San Andreas, after all, it is an online gaming/roleplaying environment.

 

§ 3 

When a fellow member takes off, make sure he is not riding alone, does not matter if it's a private lobby we never ride alone.

 

§ 4 

No member will go against anything the club has voted for and passed.

 

§ 5 

No member will get together on their own and plan something for themselves on club rides. It will be brought up to the whole club and the whole club will participate in anything that is decided upon.

 

§ 6

The club will always stay together on rides, runs, parties, field meets etc. and will not fraternize with the clubs rivals. The only way a member will be permitted to leave the main group will be to notify the president or whoever is in charge. When the time comes that the majority feels it is time to leave, we will all leave together. Anyone staying behind for a good reason will do so at his own risk and can expect no help.

 

§ 7

When someone earns their patch, it does not mean that he has reached the ultimate goal and from that point can kick back and relax.

 

§ 8

Respect is to be shown to all club members belongings such as bikes, Ol' ladies, Vans, beer, weapons, etc. In other words, if it's not yours, Don't Mess with it.

 

§ 9

Good Sportsmanship is expected in every part of the game, whether it is public lobbies, crew vs crew competition, or on social club. Remember to the public you are seen not just as an individual but as a representative of the Outlaws MC PS4.

 

§ 10 

Socializing with "Green Light" or "Bad Standing" individuals Is forbidden, and will have severe consequences If violated.

 

§ 11

PCS. 1.

Members cannot belong to any other club.

PCS. 2.

Except support club's, if under the right authority.

PCS. 3.

Support club's, have a looser grip on the bylaws but still follow the core.

 

§ 12 

Wearing the color red on your clothing is only acceptable if it's blood from a Hells Angel, though it's allowed to use the color on any vehicle, tattoo or as a tribute to your equipment.

 

§ 13

No member will take the attitude that he doesn't have to help other members and other members don't have to help him.

 

§ 14 

When a member says "Charlie" everybody have to stay quiet until the member is done talking.

 

§ 15

Respect the hierarchy within the club.

 

§ 16

Any Member caught glitching, modding or using a game exploit to their advantage, will immediately be set for a club vote about their future.

 

§ 17

When we fight people or other MC's, we do it in Third Person only. If you come to the conclusion that the  individual you are fighting is using some kind of In-game exploit, mod or hack then you are allowed to access First Person, this is because the well-known "Auto-Aim Glitch" works less efficient if the target is in First Person.

 

§ 18

If a group or individual attacks any member, the whole club shall stand behind him and fight if necessary

 

§ 19

Do as you say or walk the line, don't go against your word.

 

§ 20 

We do have a dress code. Keep the biker theme, No goofy hats, masks, glasses, etc. 

 

Chapter II

Discipline

 

§ 21 

If two members have had a "beef" over a longer period of time, and they can't come to a solution             themselves, a meeting with both parties will be arranged to calm the situation. If common ground cannot be met, Suspensions or removals will be purposed to both members. This will happen by a club vote, based on the infraction versus our rules. Through communication and understanding of our bylaws there should never be any reason for there to be any discipline given.

 

§ 22

Taking the patch for granted, or in other ways disrespecting Charlie will lead to immediate removal.

 

§ 23

Those who are correctly informed recognize the deep level of personal commitment and self-discipline that a member or hopeful member has to demonstrate and sustain in order to wear a patch. You realize that a club's "Colors" are closely guarded and the membership process is long and difficult. Other factors notwithstanding, you have to respect your fellow Patchholders for what they have accomplished by being able to earn and keep the patch they wear. This is respect born out of recognition of dedication and accomplishment. Our Club strives for respect for this reason.

 

Chapter III

Brothers

 

§ 24 

PCS. 1.

Your brother might not always be right. You might not agree with every single decision he makes, But at the end of the day, he's still your brother and therefore you're expected to backup every move he makes.

PCS. 2.

Always remember to keep the judgment on the club's side.

 

§ 25 

Make sure if a brother allows you take his bounty, don't look him the eyes when killing him, make him turn around.

PCS. 1.

The Free-Roam Etiquette is very similar to the Member Etiquette. Grenade launchers, rocket launchers, auto shotguns, snipers, sticky bombs, grenades, proximity mines and miniguns is the members personal responsibility to use in a fair manner in GTA Online Free-Roam, though the only exception is the Stinger or otherwise known as the Homing Launcher and the RPG, those are only allowed to be put to use, if you are being targeted by an airborne vehicle or any kind of armoured vehicle. We do also take distance from Helicopters, Tanks, Jets, Cars, Trucks, etc. after all, we are a biker crew.

PCS. 2.

If you are against another player who uses the weapons we have banished, just take him on, because we will meet a lot of people like that, we ask all members to adapt. The reason for the banished weapons is because there is a lot of players out there who record our every move, use common sense when brawling and do not make us or yourself look bad.

 

§ 34 

When in Free-Roam always give fellow players the benefit of the doubt, only fire if fired upon.

Formation riding

 

§ 36

§ 38 

When chasing our rivals, if a brother yells "Brother down" one brother will stay behind with him, the higher the rank, the higher the importance.

During matches, it is important that you fully respect the rules that are set prior to the match whether it is Racing, TDM, LTS, Capture or any game mode outside of Free-Roam fighting.
