(From a letter to answer some common misconceptions about The Code.)

First, The Code is for anyone who believes in self respect, respecting others, and fair play. You do not have to be a multiplayer to believe in these things, in fact you don’t have to play any games at all to consider The Code an excellent path for life in general, and to support it. The more Signers there are, the greater the possibility that the influence of The Code will prevail even among non Signers, and or community be a better place for it.

Second, The Code is not an honour bestowed; but a pledge made! Whether the Signer adheres to the tenets proposed or not, let the little badge be a thorn in their side to remind them that once they had a noble ambition. It can also be there to alert others as to disreputable characters, when their actions do not match their promises. Just leave these folks alone and don’t engage in discussions with them, as they will do anything to win, so there is no real relationship possible. Just walk away. They will get what they deserve in the end.

The Code is the spirit of all of the best things we are capable of. When you wear the badge, you affirm the environment that you wish to operate in. It tells people that you are a person who is trying to make a difference. And they will be able to verify this by your actions, and know that you have a consistency of character.

Salute!

(Go With Honour – Keep The Code )
