What Clan Ryuken Is:

Clan Ryuken started out as a Mech Warrior Online clan, but, are now branching out into Star Citizen.

Our goal is to provide a friendly, social and fun gaming experience for all members by forging our skills through solid communications and teamwork. We understand that this is a game; not a job, as we do welcome casual players along with the hardcore veterans from primarily South East Asia/Oceania. Keep in mind, however, if you are a person from America or Europe, we are still happy to take you into our glorious regime.

Clan Ryuken is about; first and foremost and above all else; class. We approach the game with a mature mindset and a fun to play and/or social environment for all. This is a game and it should be fun, but we maintain that it can be handled with class and good sportsmanship.
Clan Ryuken follows the Bushidō Code, which has seven virtues:

Rectitude -Think First; Think Right Courage -Step Up! But remember, do not act, in the fear of not acting. Benevolence -Help your regiment in any way you can. Respect -Respect your leaders Honesty -Lying is for those who fear the truth Honour -Fight with honour and dignity. Honour the dragon. Loyalty -Loyalty ALWAYS comes first. That being said, see to the ROE.

What Clan Ryuken is not:

*A place for you to stroke your ego. We can be extremely competitive or simply meet up for some casual fun. We don’t care how good you are, or think you are, leave all that at the door.
*Non Cheater friendly. We loathe cheats/hacks/exploits. If we catch you cheating, not only will you be removed instantly from the clan, your name will become known publicly as a hacker/exploiter. Cheating is for those who lack the skills to earn their place.

What we have to offer:

A full featured message board Friendly, helpful and fun people of all kinds who are always ready to have fun A casual atmosphere with no ego Divisions for competitive and non competitive players A dedicated Mumble (VOIP) server All ages welcomed (As long as maturity requirements are met)

Maturity Guidelines:

Clan Ryuken is a friendly environment to all who behave accordingly to the following guidelines. While these are not strictly rules, these are the standards that all members must meet if they wish to be a respected member of the regiment. On the other hand, too many breaches of these guidelines can result in (depending on the severity of the breach) temporary or permanent loss of access rights, or even in the worst cases, banning/kicking out of the regiment.

The Guidelines are as follows:

Not excessively curse, whether it be on the forums or on our mumble server. Follow the Code of Bushido to the best of your ability. Racism, Sexism or any form of discrimination is strictly prohibited. The display of provocative images is also restricted, with few exceptions. No Cheating in any form.
