Welcome To Fatal Under Fire,

Fatal Under Fire is an 18+ adult gaming community dedicated to providing a safe, fun, and enjoyable gaming experience for players around the world. While our roots come from first-person shooters such as Call of Duty, Rainbow Six Siege, Battlefield, and similar titles, we are also expanding into third-person shooters, RPGs, and other games that bring members together. Fatal Under Fire was created with one goal in mind: to bring gamers together.

We understand that there are many clans, organizations, teams, and esports groups focused on making money or turning their brand into a business. Fatal Under Fire is different. While community income can help support growth, we are not here for profit. Any money made is put back into the community to help improve the experience, support operations, and provide more opportunities for our members.

At its core, Fatal Under Fire is about meeting new people, building genuine friendships, and creating unforgettable memories with the people we game with. Our mission is to create a community where members feel welcomed, respected, and proud to be part of something bigger than themselves.

⚠️ DISCLAIMER ⚠️

Fatal Under Fire is not a business, nor do we claim to operate as one. Our community is privately run by our Owners, Slayah and Damon, and is not controlled by a board of directors. The Owners of this community retain full executive and creative control of Fatal Under Fire. If you have any questions, we advise all members to follow our chain of command. You may also reach out to us through our Contact Form or by emailing our dedicated support address at helpdesk@fatalunderfire.com.

Our Motto

No One Fights Alone

Foundation

FATAL UNDER FIRE WAS FOUNDED ON JUNE 26, 2026

PROOF OF OWNERSHIP

FATAL UNDER FIRE WAS FOUNDED BY SLAYAH & DAMON ON JUNE 26, 2026

2026 FOUNDATION

Slayah and Damon first met in Silent Response Gaming, where Slayah was leading the community and Damon was working his way up through leadership.

After Slayah was outcasted from Silent Response Gaming, he created a new community known as Resilient Gaming Network. Once he regained the brand identity for SRG Clan, RGN was later renamed back to SRG. However, over time, Slayah found himself carrying most of the workload alone while trying to support the community’s growth. Damon noticed the effort, dedication, and challenges Slayah was facing.

After some time, Slayah and Damon came together with the goal of creating something stronger, more successful, and built to last. That vision became Fatal Under Fire. From the beginning, they received support from members such as Bubbasmith, Kami, and Creamy, who helped back the creation of the community and server.

Fatal Under Fire was built from experience, loyalty, and the desire to create a better home for gamers. It represents a fresh start, a stronger foundation, and a community focused on growth, friendship, and long-term success.

REMEMBERING SHAWN C. MERCENARY GOODISON

Shawn was not just a supporter of Slayah, he was a true friend. Shawn and Slayah first met during the midnight launch of Call of Duty: Black Ops II, and their friendship continued from that moment forward. Throughout the years, Shawn stood by Slayah and supported his decisions, goals, and gaming journey.

Unfortunately, Shawn tragically passed away on September 13, 2025. His memory, loyalty, and legacy will forever be honored within Fatal Under Fire. Shawn is proudly inducted into the community’s Hall of Fame, where his impact will never be forgotten.

Discord Overview

Our Discord rules are written and approved by the Owners of Fatal Under Fire and are expected to be followed by all members within the community. These rules are in place to help maintain safety, fairness, and the toxicity-free environment that FuF strives to provide.

Please be advised that these rules may not always be enforced word-for-word, as each situation may vary depending on severity and context. However, our Moderation Team will make every reasonable effort to moderate the Discord server according to the standards and expectations outlined within these rules.

1.) Channel Etiquette

• Please use all channels for their intended purpose. For example, if you are wanting to post pictures or content related to cars, you should not use the main general discussion channel. Instead, please use the #automotive channel for that type of discussion.

  Keeping conversations in the correct channels helps the server stay organized and makes it easier for members to find and engage with the content they are interested in.

• Keep conversations respectful and do not derail or hijack conversations.

• Spamming any channel of Fatal Under Fire is strictly prohibited. Do not spam messages, images, emojis, gifs, mentions, commands or any other content. Any spam will be deleted, and you will be warned.

• Do not overuse mentions or excessively ping moderation team or executive leadership. Excessively pinging moderation team or executive leadership will result in delays and verbal warnings issued to members.

• No toxicity, dram or egotistical behavior. We have zero tolerance for people with egos, or being toxic, or causing unnecessary drama within our discord server.

• Respect all moderator decisions, do not argue or cause public confrontation in our discord if you want to make an appeal, and wait for leadership response.

2.) Voice Channel Etiquette

• Please maintain clear and respectful communication while in voice channels. This applies to all voice channels but, more specifically meetings and game nights.

• Do NOT move members without the member being moved knowledge. Only members who can move when necessary is Internal Affairs or Executive Staff, even though they have the permission to do so there must be a legitmate reason.

• Please do not over excessively use soundboards within the server. It creates distractions especially during gaming hours and community meetings.

• Executive members are required to use public voice channels to participate within the community and play games, executive offices are only to be used if deemed necessary. If a member request to join they are required to pull the member making the request, granted they are finished with the FuF Operations they were working on, please set channel statuses to reflect operations in progress.

• No screaming or ear rape. Please keep your voice levels appropriate while in voice channels with other members from the community.

• Keep the “Click-To-Create” channel names appropriate and fully open unless restricting for squad meetings and events.

3.) Usernames & Profiles

• Keep all usernames appropriate and free from offensive content or language.

• Keep all profile content free of offensive language and misleading information

• Do not impersonate FuF Staff or public figures.

4.) Additional Discord Rules

• Keep all personal issues between couples and spouses out of the Fatal Under Fire Discord Server. Personal relationships are not a problem that FuF deals with and should be figured out in private.

• No self-promo unless you are using the self-promo channel, however, do not post twitch links or kick links in the self-promo channel. Forward all twitch and kick links to our Director of Discord Operations.

• No promotion of clans, discord servers, or businesses within our discord server ever.

• No posting of nsfw content

• No posting of political, stuff that could become political, or religion within discord.

• No posting of any money services or asking for money.

What Is Chain of Command?

All members are expected to follow the Chain of Command whenever they need assistance, want to report a concern, or require a decision from leadership. Members should begin with the lowest appropriate rank that can handle the situation before contacting higher-ranking leadership.

For example, a member should first contact their immediate support officer, junior officer, senior officer, moderator, or department leader. If the issue cannot be resolved at that level, it may then be passed to a Director, Executive Leadership, or Ownership.

The Chain of Command helps Fatal Under Fire:

• Keep communication organized and easy to follow.

• Ensure issues are handled by the correct department or leader.

• Prevent leadership from being overwhelmed with minor concerns.

• Give lower-ranking staff the opportunity to perform their assigned duties.

• Maintain accountability throughout every level of the community.

• Reduce confusion, conflicting instructions, and unnecessary delays.

Members should not skip ranks unless the situation is urgent, involves the person they would normally report to, creates a conflict of interest, or involves a serious safety or misconduct concern. In those situations, the member may contact the next appropriate level of leadership or Internal Affairs.

Following the Chain of Command does not mean a member’s concern is unimportant. It ensures that every issue is reviewed in an organized, fair, and professional manner.

Failure to follow the Chain of Command repeatedly, without a valid reason, may result in corrective action. All members and staff are responsible for respecting the authority, responsibilities, and limitations of each rank within Fatal Under Fire.

Activity Policy

Fatal Under Fire supports a real-life-first mentality. Members will never be penalized for handling work, family, school, health, or other important personal responsibilities.

However, members are still expected to maintain a reasonable level of activity to support the community’s growth. If an official game night, meeting, or community event is taking place and a member is online playing another game or actively chatting in Discord without participating, they may receive a verbal warning.

The real-life-first policy may not be used to avoid activity requirements while remaining active elsewhere. Members who need extended time away should communicate with leadership or submit a Leave of Absence when appropriate.

What Are Reasonable Levels of Activity?

1. Members are encouraged to maintain a minimum activity level of 10 messages per week during their region’s typical operating hours. Your operating hours are based on the times you are normally awake and available, whether that is during the day or at night.

   Members should make a reasonable effort to engage with the community during those hours. Messages will still count toward activity requirements even if another member does not respond.

2. Members are encouraged to maintain a combined weekly activity level of at least 10 messages and 5 hours of voice activity during their region’s typical operating hours.

   These requirements are flexible and may be balanced between text and voice activity. For example, a member who does not reach 10 messages but remains highly active in voice channels may still be considered reasonably active. Overall participation and engagement will be considered when reviewing activity levels.

Inactivity Policy

Members who are inactive for more than five consecutive days without communication may receive a check-in from leadership. Once contacted, the member will have 48 hours to respond, explain the reason for their inactivity, or request a Leave of Absence when appropriate. Continued inactivity or failure to respond may result in a warning, rank removal, or removal from Fatal Under Fire. Real-life responsibilities will always be respected, but communication is expected whenever possible.

Members removed for inactivity are eligible to rejoin Fatal Under Fire immediately, with no waiting period or restriction.

How Do We Assign Inactive Members?

A member may be considered inactive if they:

1. Have not played with or spoken to any Fatal Under Fire member.

2. Have shown minimal activity for more than five consecutive days without communication.

3. Have not participated in any community events since joining.

   
   Fatal Under Fire is a gaming community and clan, not simply a chat room. We generally do not recruit individuals who do not actively play games. Limited exceptions may be considered under our Non-Gaming Participant Policy.

Fatal Under Fire is built upon two core bylaws that every member is expected to follow:

No Member Left Behind:

Do not rage quit or abandon your team. We understand that games can become stressful, but members are expected to finish the match and move forward together. If the party wants to leave a match early, all members must agree before anyone backs out.

We win together. We lose together. We retreat together.

No One Fights Alone:

Members are expected to respect all online players while supporting and protecting Fatal Under Fire and its members. If the community or one of its members is being attacked, members should stand together and defend the FuF name. However, all responses must remain respectful, mature, and professional.

Always protect the community without creating unnecessary conflict or damaging the Fatal Under Fire brand.

Fatal Under Fire is dedicated to maintaining a fair, respectful, and non-toxic gaming community. Our Disciplinary Outcomes are not intended to be a strict order that leadership must follow, but rather a list of possible actions that may be used in the event disciplinary action is needed.

Each situation may be handled differently depending on the severity of the incident, the member’s history, and the overall impact on the community.

Verbal Warning

• A Verbal Warning may be issued for minor rule violations or first-time offenses. This serves as an opportunity to correct the behavior before further disciplinary action is needed. Verbal Warnings are meant to be respectful, educational, and corrective rather than punitive. However, repeated behavior after receiving a Verbal Warning may result in further action.

Written Warning

• A Written Warning may be issued for repeated minor rule violations, failure to correct behavior after a Verbal Warning, or incidents that require formal documentation. Written Warnings serve as an official notice that the behavior is not acceptable within Fatal Under Fire. Members are expected to correct the issue moving forward, and failure to do so may result in further disciplinary action.

Strike

• A Strike may be issued for rule violations, repeated misconduct, or behavior that requires formal documentation within Fatal Under Fire. Strikes serve as an official disciplinary record and may be considered when determining future consequences if the behavior continues. Leadership will review the seriousness of the incident, the member’s history, and the overall impact on the community before issuing a Strike.

  A Strike may be removed after 60 consecutive days of good behavior.

Suspension

• A suspension may be issued for serious rule violations, repeated misconduct, or failure to correct behavior after previous warnings. Depending on the severity of the situation, a suspended member may temporarily lose access to certain privileges, events, voice channels, community areas, or Fatal Under Fire as a whole. Leadership will determine the length and conditions of the suspension based on the incident, the member’s history, and the impact on the community. The purpose of a suspension is to hold the member accountable while giving them time to reflect, correct their behavior, and understand the seriousness of the situation before returning.

Rank Suspension

• A Rank Suspension may be issued for serious rule violations or repeated misconduct. This action temporarily prevents a member from being promoted or progressing within the Fatal Under Fire rank structure. Rank Suspensions are more serious than the corrective actions FuF normally prefers to use and will only be issued when necessary. The purpose of a Rank Suspension is to hold the member accountable while still giving them the opportunity to correct their behavior, rebuild trust, and continue moving forward within the community.

Demotion

• A demotion may be issued when a member fails to meet the expectations, responsibilities, or standards of their current rank or leadership position. Reasons for demotion may include repeated misconduct, inactivity, failure to complete assigned duties, abuse of authority, poor leadership, or failure to follow FuF policies and the Chain of Command. A demotion lowers a member’s rank, role, or position within Fatal Under Fire. Before this action is taken, leadership will consider the seriousness of the situation, the member’s history, and the impact on the community. The purpose of a demotion is to hold members accountable while giving them the opportunity to correct their behavior, rebuild trust, and continue contributing positively to FuF.

Membership Revocation

• Membership Revocation may be issued for serious rule violations, repeated misconduct, or behavior that goes against the standards and values of Fatal Under Fire. This action removes the individual’s membership status, rank, roles, privileges, and access to member-only areas. It may be used when a member shows that they are unwilling or unable to follow community expectations. A member whose membership has been revoked may reapply to Fatal Under Fire 30 days after the date of removal. Reapplying does not guarantee acceptance.
  
  ⚠️ DISCLAIMER ⚠️
  
  Fatal Under Fire reserves the right to deny, suspend, or revoke membership when leadership determines that an individual is not a suitable fit for the community. Membership within Fatal Under Fire is a privilege, not a right. All membership decisions will be made at the discretion of FuF leadership and in the best interest of the community.

Member Ban

• A Member Ban may be issued for serious rule violations, repeated misconduct, or behavior that threatens the safety, stability, or integrity of Fatal Under Fire. A banned individual will permanently lose access to FuF’s Discord server, events, platforms, and other community spaces. In some cases, a ban may be appealed or revoked. Only the Community Director or higher leadership may remove a ban, and the reason for doing so must be valid and properly documented.

Blacklist

A blacklist may be issued for severe rule violations, repeated misconduct, or actions that seriously threaten the safety, stability, integrity, or reputation of Fatal Under Fire.

A blacklisted individual is permanently prohibited from:

• Rejoining Fatal Under Fire

• Participating in FuF community spaces

• Attending FuF events

• Holding membership or rank

• Representing Fatal Under Fire in any way

Depending on the severity of the violation, the individual may also lose the right to submit a future appeal. Blacklisting is the most serious disciplinary action and will not be issued without careful review. Only Internal Affairs or higher leadership may issue a blacklist.

Only the Ownership Team may revoke a blacklist. Any decision to remove a blacklist must have a valid reason and be fully documented.

Quitting Without Notice or Clan Hopping

• We understand that Fatal Under Fire may not be for everyone. However, we ask that you communicate any issues or concerns before making your exit. We assume that if you leave without saying anything you want the issue to keep persisting. Members who leave without notice will receive a (90) day ban.
  
  If you are granted a second chance and you leave again without notice you will be permanently banned from Fatal Under Fire. We are not mind readers and cannot fix issues if they are not brought up to the right people, members who are permanently banned for quitting without notice may submit an appeal and state their case for reentry.
  
  ⚠️ DISCLAIMER ⚠️
  
  Fatal Under Fire has a zero-tolerance policy for clan hopping and dual clanning. Members may not join, represent, or hold a rank in another gaming clan while they are members of Fatal Under Fire. Any member found clan hopping or dual clanning may be removed and blacklisted. Fatal Under Fire values loyalty, commitment, and members who are dedicated to the community.

Fatal Under Fire is committed to maintaining a respectful, fair, and enjoyable community for all members.

Fatal Under Fire offers (4) different types of LOA’s. Short-Term, Long Term, Extended LOA, & Military LOA

Short Term Leave of Absence:

Members may request a Short-Term Leave of Absence if they need to take time away from the server. Leave of Absence requests should not be denied without proper reason. If a member’s Leave of Absence is approved, they will receive the Leave of Absence role within Discord, and an LOA note will be entered into their CMS profile.

Once approved, the member will be relieved of all responsibilities for the duration of their Leave of Absence. If the member holds a leadership position, a temporary assignment may be made to cover their responsibilities while they are away. A Short-Term Leave of Absence may last from 7 to 14 days.

Upon returning from their Leave of Absence, the member will return to their position immediately and resume their regular activities, responsibilities, and activity requirements.

Long Term Leave of Absence

Members may request a Long-Term Leave of Absence if they need an extended amount of time away from the server. If approved, the member will be relieved of any and all responsibilities for the duration of their Leave of Absence.

A Long-Term Leave of Absence is any approved time away lasting from 15 to 60 days.

If the member holds a leadership position, a temporary or permanent replacement may be considered if the situation warrants it. The member may also be moved down to Senior Member, and leadership roles or permissions may be removed during this time.

After 61 days of Leave of Absence, a member of Executive Leadership or the member’s direct superior will attempt to reach out. If there is no response, the member may be removed in accordance with the Activity & Inactivity Policy. (Members removed for inactivity are eligible to reapply immediately.)

Extended Leave of Absence

Members may request an Extended Leave of Absence within reason. These requests are less likely to be approved unless they are related to a family emergency, mental health, medical reasons, job-related obligations, or other serious circumstances.

If approved, the member will be relieved of any and all responsibilities for the duration of their Leave of Absence.

An Extended Leave of Absence is any approved time away lasting from 61 to 183 days.

If the member holds a leadership position, they may be informed that they will be moved down to Member and will vacate their leadership role. FuF cannot reasonably hold a leadership position open for this length of time due to the responsibilities and stability required within the community.

After 184 days of Leave of Absence, an Executive Leader or the member’s direct superior will attempt to reach out. If there is no response, the member may be removed in accordance with FuF’s Activity & Inactivity Policy.

Military Leave of Absence

First, we would like to thank you for your service.

Military personnel may request a Military Leave of Absence without denial. If approved, the member will be relieved of any and all responsibilities for the duration of their Leave of Absence.

A Military Leave of Absence is any approved time away lasting from 1 to 365 days.

If the member holds a leadership position, they may be required to vacate their role and step down to Senior Member. FuF cannot reasonably hold a leadership position open for an entire year due to the responsibilities and stability required within the community.

After 365 days on Leave of Absence, Executive Leadership or the member’s direct superior will attempt to reach out. If there is no response, the member may be removed from the community in accordance with FuF’s Activity & Inactivity Policy.

Leave of Absence Guidelines

• Members on an approved LOA are expected to remain away from the server and refrain from chatting or participating in regular community activity. If you are on LOA, the expectation is that you are absent.

• Executive Leadership members on LOA may remain visually active for the purpose of receiving necessary updates only. They should not type in regular channels and should remain restricted to Executive voice channels when needed.

• Members must submit an LOA ticket within the Discord server for their request to be reviewed and documented.

• Members must inform their direct superior of their need for an LOA before opening an LOA ticket.

• Members are expected to keep Leadership updated regarding possible return dates or any changes to their availability.

• Members returning from LOA should notify their direct superior or the appropriate Leadership member so their roles, responsibilities, and activity requirements can be properly resumed.

Our Ranking System is designed to provide organization and structure to our community by rewarding members for activity, participation, good behavior and overall contribution.

The Rank Structure & Ranking System are a privilege not a right, Fatal Under Fire reserves the right to promote, deny, delay, or adjust member progression based on community needs or member performance. Our ranking system policy ensures we are appointing the right leadership to the right roles, Fatal Under Fire takes pride in developing its leadership members and staff team.

RANK ADVANCEMENT

All ranks within Fatal Under Fire are earned, not given. Asking, demanding, or pressuring leadership for a promotion is prohibited and may result in a verbal warning. Members are welcome to express interest in advancing; however, interest alone does not guarantee a promotion. After expressing interest, members are expected to demonstrate through their actions that they are ready for greater responsibility. No member should expect or feel entitled to a rank.

Promotions are based on activity, tenure, performance, conduct, leadership potential, and overall contributions to the community.

Ranks may never be awarded in exchange for donations, gifts, favors, money, or any other form of compensation. Offering or accepting a bribe in connection with a promotion is strictly prohibited and may result in disciplinary action.

RANK RESPONSIBILITIES

The Fatal Under Fire rank structure is designed to give members a sense of purpose, responsibility, and something meaningful to work toward. Every member who accepts a rank is responsible for understanding and fulfilling the duties attached to that position.

Leadership roles should only be pursued by members who have the time, energy, knowledge, availability, and ability to perform the required duties. Members should not express interest in or accept a leadership role they are unable to maintain. Fatal Under Fire cannot operate effectively with inactive leadership, especially when that position could be filled by another qualified member who is ready and willing to contribute.

Leadership roles within Fatal Under Fire begin at the rank of Corporal and continue through all higher ranks. These positions are reserved for dependable members who genuinely want to make a positive difference within the community. Accepting a leadership role and then failing to perform its responsibilities prevents progress, delays operations, and limits advancement opportunities for other members.

Members who accept leadership positions are expected to remain active, complete their assigned duties, communicate with their chain of command, and contribute to Fatal Under Fire operations on a consistent basis.

Failure to perform assigned duties may result in immediate disciplinary action, including removal from the position or demotion. The severity of the action will depend on the circumstances, the member’s communication, and whether the issue is repeated or ongoing.

We understand that many members are eager to help the community. However, accepting a position without having the ability or availability to fulfill it does not help Fatal Under Fire, it creates additional delays and responsibilities for others. Please only pursue or accept a leadership role when you are fully prepared to meet the expectations of that position.

INTERIM RESPONSIBILITIES

Fatal Under Fire may temporarily assign leadership responsibilities when a position is vacant or a leader leaves, becomes unavailable, or takes a leave of absence. These duties may be assigned to the next rank above or below the position at the discretion of higher leadership. Interim assignments are temporary and do not guarantee a promotion or permanent placement.

HOW CAN I RANK UP?

Use the following ways below to show your contribution and interest in ranking up:

• Maintaining general discord activity & chat activity.

• Staying active in discord voice channel activity.

• When a duty is assigned to you by a hierarchy member complete the task to show your interest.

• Attending squad meetings.

• Attending community wide meetings.

• Attending game nights, social nights and movie nights.

• Attending workshops or training sessions.

• Referring or recruiting new members to Fatal Under Fire. (You are responsible for making sure they put your name on their application)

• Being loyal, welcoming and positive member of this community.

• Take initiative, ask questions and complete necessary trainings, test, or task assigned by higher leadership.

VOLUNTEER BASED COMMUNITY

Fatal Under Fire appreciates every member who donates their time and effort to our community. FuF is a 100% volunteer-based community, and no member, including Executive Leadership, is paid or compensated for performing community duties or responsibilities. Our community and rank structure remain volunteer-based because FuF is meant to be a fun hobby and a place for members to escape the stresses of everyday life.

Members may not demand payment or compensation for duties or responsibilities completed within Fatal Under Fire. If you provide a service to the community, you should not request payment from leadership or other members. Members who provide optional services, such as graphic design or video editing, may accept voluntary tips. However, tips must never be required, expected, or demanded.

Fatal Under Fire recognizes that real-life responsibilities must always take priority over community participation. Members will not be penalized for attending to work, family, health, education, emergencies, or other personal obligations. When possible, members are expected to communicate with leadership if they anticipate an extended period of inactivity. However, members are still responsible for fulfilling the duties attached to any role they accept once their availability allows. Real-life obligations are understood and respected, but they should not result in the continued neglect of leadership responsibilities or prevent the community from operating effectively.

Fatal Under Fire has no current plans to establish or fund an esports team. Should this change in the future, members will be formally notified. Esports teams require significant time, funding, and resources, including travel, lodging, jerseys, entry fees, and other expenses that FuF is not currently able to provide. Members may still participate in leagues, cups, or tournaments of their choosing, provided all expenses are personally funded. Any team representing Fatal Under Fire must consist entirely of verified FuF members. All FuF policies, guidelines, protocols, and standards of conduct remain in effect whenever members represent the community.

What Happens If We Start An Esports Department?

If Fatal Under Fire establishes an esports team in the future, members will be notified through Discord, and our recruitment efforts will clearly state that we are seeking esports players. Recruitment may include positions for a starting roster, team captain, coach, substitute players, and a bench roster. Additional requirements and expectations will be announced if an esports program is officially created.

• Must be 18+ years of age.

• Team mentality over ego or toxicity, if members show signs of these behaviors you will be removed without a single notice.

• Members responsible for expenses

• Team takes 5% cut and the remainder amount is split between participating players.

FuF will always have an Open Door Policy, but members are still expected to follow the Chain of Command when possible. This means members should give the proper leadership members the opportunity to handle issues within their role before going directly to Executive Leadership or Ownership.

The Open Door Policy should be used when:

• The issue is serious.

• The issue involves your immediate Chain of Command.

• You do not feel comfortable going to your direct superior.

• The issue involves misconduct, abuse of power, harassment, threats, or safety concerns.

• The issue was not handled in accordance with FuF Policies.

• You have not received a response within a reasonable amount of time.

Members should not use the Open Door Policy to skip the Chain of Command for minor issues, basic questions, or situations that can be handled by lower leadership. All concerns should be brought forward respectfully and honestly. FuF Leadership will make every reasonable effort to listen, review the situation fairly, and protect the privacy of those involved when possible. No member will be punished or retaliated against for using the Open Door Policy in good faith.

The purpose of this policy is to make sure members feel heard and supported while still keeping FuF organized, respectful, and structured.

Name Changing

Fatal Under Fire requires members to open a support ticket in order to request a name change within Discord. This is not a matter of asking for permission. The ticket system allows us to properly update the member’s name within both the Discord server and our Content Management System. Repeated name changes can create confusion and take time away from operations that require Leadership’s attention.

Please note that once your Discord username or server name is changed, you must wait 60 days before requesting another name change.

This process is not meant to be difficult or overly strict. FuF is not saying members need permission to change their name, but we do need to keep things organized so our time and energy can remain focused on growing and improving the community.

Gamertag Changes

Gamertag changes are not required and are 100% optional. However, if you choose to change your gamertag, it must remain appropriate and follow FuF’s community standards. Your gamertag may not match the name of an FuF section, squad, department, or official title. In addition, members may not use the exact same gamertag as another FuF member to avoid confusion within the community.

Fatal Under Fire encourages all members to follow and support our official social media accounts. While following our social media is not required, every follow, like, comment, share, and interaction helps strengthen our online presence, expand the Fatal Under Fire brand, and support the continued growth of our community.

Fatal Under Fire encourages all members to proudly represent the community by including Fatal Under Fire or FuF in their Discord bio, social media profiles, Xbox or PlayStation profiles, and other appropriate online platforms. While this is not required, representing Fatal Under Fire helps strengthen our online presence, increase brand recognition, and introduce our community to more gamers across different platforms.

Fatal Under Fire does not prevent family members, couples, spouses, or significant others from participating in the FuF rank structure. All members are welcome to earn rank, contribute to the community, and grow within FuF based on their own merit, activity, dedication, and conduct.

However, family members, couples, spouses, or significant others may not be placed in a position where they directly report to one another or have authority over each other within the same squad, section, or leadership chain. This is to help prevent favoritism, bias, conflicts of interest, or the appearance of unfair treatment within the community.

FuF wants every member to have a fair and equal opportunity to progress. Any leadership decisions involving related members or members in a relationship should be handled by an appropriate neutral leadership member to ensure transparency, fairness, and trust within the community.

Guidelines

• Couples, family members, spouses, or significant others may not be assigned to the same squad or placed in a position where they directly report to one another.

• If a conflict or issue involves a spouse, significant other, family member, or someone a leadership member has a close personal relationship with, that leadership member must excuse themselves from the situation. Another appropriate leadership member should handle the matter to maintain fair and transparent decision-making.

• Members in a position to issue rewards, awards, promotions, recognition, or other benefits may not give them directly to their spouse, significant other, family member, or close personal relation. These decisions must be reviewed or handled by neutral leadership.

• If members meet within the server and begin a relationship, we ask that they make Leadership aware. This is not to interfere with personal relationships, but to help prevent conflicts of interest, favoritism, or unfair reporting structures within the community.

Fatal Under Fire strives to be as transparent as possible. However, FuF also requires confidentiality from all parties, including members, staff, affiliates, partners, and leadership. Any information shared, posted, discussed, or made available inside Fatal Under Fire is to remain within the community and may not be shared outside of FuF without written approval from Ownership.

This includes, but is not limited to:

• Internal discussions

• Screenshots from inside SRG servers or private channels

• Announcements not yet made public

• Staff conversations

• Leadership discussions

• Member information

• Disciplinary matters

• Reports or investigations

• Partnership discussions

• Planning or future community projects

• Internal documents

• Policies not yet released publicly

• Server operations

• Role, rank, or department changes before official announcement

• Any sensitive or private community information

Information should only be considered public if it has been officially posted by FuF Ownership, FuF’s official social media accounts, or another approved public-facing platform authorized by Ownership.

Sharing private or sensitive FuF information outside of the community can damage trust, harm members, affect partnerships, and destabilize the community. Any member found sharing confidential information without approval may be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including removal from Fatal Under Fire.

When a member of Fatal Under Fire is being formally reprimanded, at least two higher-ranking officers from that member’s division, section, squad, or department must be present. This helps ensure transparency, fairness, and prevents “he said, she said” situations.

Members below the rank of Lieutenant may not formally issue disciplinary action against other members. They may report concerns, gather information, or escalate issues through the proper Chain of Command, but formal disciplinary action must be handled by authorized leadership.

Fatal Under Fire is committed to providing a fair, welcoming, and respectful gaming community for all members. All members should have an equal opportunity to participate, grow, rank up, attend events, join squads, and contribute to the community without discrimination, favoritism, or unfair treatment.

FuF does not tolerate discrimination or harassment based on race, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, nationality, disability, military status, personal background, gaming skill level, platform, or region. Ranks, leadership roles, awards, and opportunities within FuF are earned through activity, dedication, maturity, loyalty, participation, and overall contribution to the community. These decisions should never be based on favoritism, friendships, relationships, or personal bias. Members of all skill levels are welcome in FuF. Whether you play casually, competitively, or are still learning, you deserve to be treated with respect.

If a member feels they have been treated unfairly, excluded, discriminated against, or targeted, they should report the issue through the proper Chain of Command or ticket system. No member will be punished or retaliated against for reporting a concern in good faith. The purpose of this policy is to make sure FuF remains fair, welcoming, and enjoyable for everyone.

Fatal Under Fire understands that many games played within the community, especially FPS titles, may include simulated violence, weapons, combat, and competitive gameplay. This type of in-game content is part of gaming and is not considered a violation on its own. However, FuF does not tolerate real-life threats, violent behavior, harassment, intimidation, or comments that make members feel unsafe. Members are expected to understand the difference between in-game competition and real-life conduct. Trash talk, joking, and competitive banter must remain respectful and should never cross into threats, targeted harassment, or harmful behavior.

The following behavior is not allowed:

• Threatening to harm another member in real life

• Encouraging violence, self-harm, or harm toward others

• Making violent comments meant to intimidate or scare members

• Targeting members with aggressive or hostile behavior

• Posting graphic, disturbing, or real-life violent content

• Using in-game violence as an excuse to harass or bully others

• Taking gaming disputes into real-life threats or personal attacks

Any serious threat or violent behavior may result in immediate disciplinary action, including removal from the community. Depending on the severity, FuF may also report the situation to Discord, the gaming platform, or proper authorities if needed. FuF is built to be a safe, fun, and non-toxic gaming community. Members are expected to compete hard, have fun, and keep all behavior respectful both in-game and within the community.

Fatal Under Fire is committed to providing a safe, respectful, and non-toxic gaming community for all members. Harassment, intimidation, bullying, threats, or targeted mistreatment of any kind will not be tolerated. All members are expected to treat each other with respect, both inside and outside of FuF spaces when representing or interacting with the community.

Harassment and intimidation may include, but are not limited to:

• Targeted insults or personal attacks

• Bullying, mocking, or humiliating another member

• Repeated unwanted messages, pings, or contact

• Threats or aggressive behavior

• Attempting to scare, pressure, or control another member

• Spreading rumors or false information about someone

• Harassing members in DMs, voice channels, game chats, or public channels

• Discrimination or hateful comments

• Retaliation against someone for reporting an issue

• Encouraging others to target, exclude, or mistreat a member

Members who feel they are being harassed, intimidated, or targeted should report the issue through the proper Chain of Command, ticket system, Moderation Team, or Internal Affairs. When possible, members should provide screenshots, clips, message links, or any other evidence that can help Leadership review the situation fairly. FuF will make every reasonable effort to handle reports seriously, fairly, and confidentially. Any member found engaging in harassment or intimidation may face disciplinary action, up to and including removal from Fatal Under Fire.

The purpose of this policy is to protect our members and ensure FuF remains a place where everyone can game, relax, and feel respected.

Fatal Under Fire does not allow impersonation of any member, staff member, leadership member, partner, affiliate, or official FuF account. Members may not pretend to be someone they are not, use misleading names, copy another member’s identity, or present themselves as having authority they do not have.

Impersonation may include, but is not limited to:

• Using another member’s name, gamertag, profile picture, or identity to cause confusion

• Pretending to be staff, leadership, moderation, Internal Affairs, Executive Leadership, or Ownership

• Claiming to have a rank, role, title, or authority that you do not actually hold

• Creating fake accounts to appear as another member or FuF representative

• Speaking on behalf of FuF without approval

• Misrepresenting yourself in Discord, games, social media, or any FuF platform

• Copying official FuF branding, logos, or section names in a misleading way

Members are expected to represent themselves honestly at all times. Any member found impersonating another person or misrepresenting their authority may face disciplinary action, up to and including removal from Fatal Under Fire.

This policy exists to protect member trust, community safety, and the integrity of FuF’s brand and leadership structure.

Fatal Under Fire understands that some individuals may wish to rejoin the community. We believe in second chances and providing opportunities for growth. However, members seeking to return must meet the guidelines and rules listed below.

While Fatal Under Fire is committed to giving people multiple opportunities, there comes a point where we must acknowledge repeated negative behavior and take appropriate action to protect the community.

• Members must have left Fatal Under Fire on good terms.

• Members must not be blacklisted or banned from Fatal Under Fire.

• Individuals who are blacklisted or banned may submit an appeal using the appeal form provided here.

• Members who leave have 24 hours to rejoin if they wish to keep their previous rank and position. After 24 hours, returning members will be required to start from the bottom again.

• Returning members may be assigned to a different squad or role based on the needs of the community.

• Returning members may be subject to a 30-day probationary period to ensure commitment, consistency, and longevity within the community.

Slander is when someone makes a false spoken statement about another person that damages their reputation. In simple terms, slander is spreading false information about someone by speaking it, saying it in voice chat, telling others, or making verbal claims that can harm how people view that person.

For FuF, slander may include making false claims about a member, staff member, leader, affiliate, or partner with the intent to damage their name, reputation, or standing in the community. Slander, defamation, false accusations, or intentionally damaging another person’s reputation will not be tolerated within FuF.

This may include, but is not limited to:

• Spreading false information about another member

• Making serious accusations without evidence

• Publicly attacking someone’s character or reputation

• Sharing misleading screenshots, clips, or conversations

• Twisting facts to make another member look bad

• Starting rumors or encouraging others to believe false claims

• Making false reports to get another member in trouble

• Speaking negatively about FuF, its members, staff, affiliates, or partners with the intent to harm the community

Suicide is a serious issue that affects people around the world. At Fatal Under Fire, we want everyone to know that we do not support or encourage self-harm in any way.

If any member, or anyone in the general public, needs a safe place to vent or talk, we are here to listen. While we are not licensed professionals and cannot provide professional mental health care, we want you to know that you are not alone. You matter. Your life matters. Everyone’s life matters.

If you are experiencing suicidal thoughts or feel like you may harm yourself, please reach out to a suicide prevention hotline or crisis resource immediately. The hotlines listed below are available to help you speak with someone and get the support you need.

Members of Fatal Under Fire are free to join social servers or Discord servers that do not have any form of rank structure. Any server with a ranking system, leadership hierarchy, or structured chain of command may be considered similar in purpose or function to the Fatal Under Fire ranking structure.

If a member wishes to join a Discord community server, they may be required to provide proof that the server does not have an active rank structure. Members may join approved social or non-ranked servers even if individuals on the FuF Blacklist are present in those servers.

Please review the guidelines below:

1. Members must remain confidential and may not mention FuF, Fatal Under Fire, or any related network information within that server.

2. Members must ignore any accusations, slander, defamation, or negative comments made by members of that Discord server, especially when such statements are made without facts, proof, or evidence.

3. Members are not permitted to join any server with an active rank structure, chain of command, or leadership hierarchy.

4. No screenshots, private discussions, internal Discord information, or sensitive Fatal Under Fire content may be shared inside these servers. Violating this rule may result in a blacklist from Fatal Under Fire.

5. If a server you are in has a server tag, that tag must be removed. Members must either represent the FuF server tag or use no server tag at all.

6. Exceptions may apply for game-related servers, personal social servers, professional streamer servers, or company servers.

7. Server tags from any server listed or identified as a Gaming Community, Clan, or Esports Organization may not be applied or represented by FuF members.

   Exceptions may be made for major professional esports organizations, including but not limited to FaZe, OpTic, Cloud9, KOI, Surge, or other professional esports organizations of similar status.

Fatal Under Fire currently does not have an active FiveM server. However, we are interested in opening one in the future. At this time, FuF cannot financially support a FiveM server until the community has a stable income source or receives consistent donations to help cover the required costs. The community will be informed if and when a FiveM server is officially launched. Once launched, the server will require an appointed FuF Director to oversee, manage, and maintain its operations.

Guidelines

• The FiveM server will require an appointed Director to oversee, manage, and maintain daily operations.

• The FiveM server will have its own dedicated Discord server for FiveM-related communication, organization, and operations.

• Members of the FiveM server will not automatically be considered official members of Fatal Under Fire. However, they may apply to join FuF at any time.

• FiveM members may be given a guest role labeled FiveM Member within the appropriate FuF spaces when needed.

• FuF members are permitted to join and participate in the FiveM server at any time.

• All current FuF Directors are required to be present in the FiveM Discord server to help oversee operations and ensure proper management.
