Registration Agreement

Do not register on the forum before doing your interview! Forum registration is part of it.
Random applications from people who have not first enlisted and scheduled an interview with a recruiter will be ignored.

By going through this process you agree to our community rules:

I. General

1. Fundamental
Everything written in Rule 1 of I is valid for all platforms we use (including but not limited to Whatsapp, Teamspeak, Website (Forum), ArmA3, Steam)!

a) Any council member can implement or remove, temporary and permanent rules, at any time, if necessary.
b) Racism, Homophobia, antisemitism is not allowed.
c) No display or sharing of extremist political beliefs as in communism, fascism or Nazism.
d) Intoxicated people are not tolerated.
e) Personal attacks on members, guests or any individual are not tolerated.
f) No publishing of personal information. It is not acceptable to publicise anyone's contact details, including address, place of employment, telephone number, email address, private photos etc, without their consent.
g) Breaking one of these and the following rules could lead to termination from the unit (also see number 3e).
h) No toxic behaviour (being a negative influence on the community).

2. At joining the unit
a) The name choice is free but should be authentic, fitting to a german soldier of the ww2 era. A surname which is already taken by a member will not be confirmed.

b) After applying for the unit for the first time, it is necessary to do an interview with one of the designated interviewers or council members. The interviewer can decide if the new member can be accepted or not. If this decision was based on a personal decision (simply disliking someone), the council can take care of this particular case.

c) Every new member starts with the Rekrut rank. Exceptions can be made if this particular person was a member before. He will also gain access to the forum and be added to the official 2.PzD steam group.

d) Every Rekrut gets their promotion on the 4th active Sunday. Here, too, exceptions can be made if the Rekrut was very inactive during the trial process. After the promotion he becomes a full member and will be distributed to a useful spot in the units structure.

3. Membership

a) Every member represents the 2. Panzer-Division unit. Do not just respect our members, also respect other units and their members.

b) The unit does not have a single membership policy. Being a member of multiple units, clans or communities is valid and will not be punished as long as it does not conflict with our own activities.

c) All members have a rank depending on their function. The upper Leadership decides the rank.

d) In case of a cause for a complaint, it is possible to make an anonymous complaint to the ombudsman or a non-anonymous complaint to your designated Gruppenführer.

e) Membership can be lost at anytime due to inactivity or breaking the 2.PzD community rules. The decision to remove someone from the unit can be done the council without any further consequences for the deciders.
