This is a PvP focused clan administrated by PvP mains, for PvP mains. At present we are a medium sized clan with around 150 members (and 100's more in our wider community) but we all share passion and enthusiasm for the competitive side of this game. We always have strong players on hand for any PvP activity. We have developed a long term and reliable LFG system where everyone you link up with is guaranteed to be a strong player and crucially pleasant to play with as well. The ambition is that we all improve and grow together, honing our skills, perfecting our craft, and forging our reputations in the field as true competitors. We're lucky to have in our membership a lot of high quality players including a sizeable contingent of Top 1% sweats to play alongside and learn from. All the building blocks for success are here, it's our pledge to everyone who joins us on this journey that you'll become a better player during your time in this clan. There's no doubt about it. [b]Bells and Whistles[/b] Another draw to our clan is our advanced and comprehensive stat based recognition systems, at AiE you can fully expect your PvP accomplishments to be recognised and rewarded. You'll see specially designed performance based flairs and receive various accolades for certain milestones and achievements. It is a progressive ladder that has a proven track record of encouraging and incentivising improvement. [b]Clan Values/Principles/Rules[/b] It is well known that PvP can be a very toxic and negative experience for a lot of people but our clan aims to break the mould in that regard by cultivating a welcoming, friendly, and constructive atmosphere where all members can focus on developing as a player amongst likeminded individuals. One of the founding principles of the clan is to establish a non-toxic atmosphere, we want decent people as well as decent players. If you can't play nice with others then you are not wanted. Hate speech is not tolerated and will result in immediate termination of membership (without warning). Heavy raging, constant whining, bad attitude, and general rudeness are all highly likely to result in a similar outcome. We're really quite strict on this, there's no second chances or forgiveness, you'll just be booted, blocked, and forgotten about. Simple as that. The use or possession of any hardware/software that has the potential to alter your gameplay is strictly prohibited. This includes XiM, Cronus Zen, and various Network Manipulation tools. Anyone found engaging in activity that violates Bungie’s Terms of Service will be issued an immediate ban. [b]Applications / How to Join[/b] Please avoid messaging us on Bungie.net instead head over to our Discord if you would like to check out the vibe and facilities before making a decision, if it looks like your kind of place then by all means reach out to us for a clan invite and we can begin this new chapter together. [b]AiE Discord Sever Link: https://discord.gg/actioniseloquence[/b] [b]Requirements / Pre-Reqs[/b] We have recently moved away from hard stat requirements to dealing with applications from players of all skill levels on a case-by-case basis. That said, our baseline for AiE clan membership is as follows: [b]- 1.0+ Career Trials KD or 1.0+ in last 3 Seasons - 20 Overall Lifetime Crucible Resets - Zero Concealment of Career Stats[/b] If you do not meet these requirements then fear not we do have other options available including our second developmental clan Appreciation Society, and of course Discord membership is open to anyone regardless of clan status. [b]Additional Information[/b] We have an additional clan for players who're perhaps not the best and still learning the ropes, we offer full and comprehensive mentorship experience with a wide range of highly skilled players in different styles to play alongside and learn from both directly and indirectly. If you are an improvement focussed player, this could be perfect for you and allow you to share your journey with others in a similar situation. We are an International clan but our membership is mainly concentrated in Europe and North America. Generally you will 1+ pages of online members at any point during the day, inactive members are regularly scrubbed and replaced to avoid clan stagnation.
