Based on feedback from players, outsiders, and a secret message I decoded from the New York Times all signs pointed to yes. Yes to what? Yes to an official Newbs clan. Due to this unprecedented demand the admins jumped into action to deliver a framework for this community in timely manner. After a week or two of tough back and forth negotiations amongst numerous server admins I'm pleased to announce [N] the Newbs Official Server Clan.
This non-competitive clan is open to all players on the Newbs servers that consider themselves _Newbs_. Enrollment is simple, the cost is free, and the fun times you'll have from being in [N] are priceless. Where other clans have strict participation rules, or require donations to join the servers clan here at Newbs none of this is necessary. There are a few simple rules though:
1) Be a positive player. Keep personal attacks and trash talk to yourself.
2) No griefing, racism, hate.
3) Membership is limited to 1 community clan (eg: you can not be in eGO and in N at the same time)
4) Have a good time
In order to join [N] there are a couple simple things that must be done:
1) Register on the forum
2) Post a NEW thread in the [N] forum (
http://www.tf2newbs.com/forum/index.php/board,29.0.html )
This post should introduce yourself - please include:
Name
Favorite Class
Region (Time zone is fine)
Brief Description
This can be much the same as the 'meet the newb' thread.
Here is my sample Application:
Name : octo-dhd
Favorite Class: Engineer
Region : Cali
Description : Your moms favorite octopus

Yup. Its that easy.
Once you make this post add [N] at the beginning of your name. At this time we are allowing multiple tags, so you can be a [N]ewb and an [ICE] member [N][ICE], or [N]{OSS}. You can remove the [N] if you're going to play in a match

Please be sure to check with your clan leader to see if you are allowed multiple tags, as far as I know most of the existing clans on the newbs servers do allow it.
Please remember that as a member of N you will be representing us on all servers you play on. We are about good mannered fun, doing things to make other players not have a good time isn't what we are about and could jeopardize your status in the [N] clan.
