Frequently Asked Questions
What is Team BöNK?
Team BoNK is a sponsored Team Fortress 2 Clan based in California founded in October 2007. We compete in CAL, TWL, and STA:Highlander. We attend lans in California namely Ascendancy Gaming in San Francisco, where we are the two time Team Fortress 2 Champions.
How did BoNK Start?
BoNK started out with an idea to create a community that fosters respect and to create a competitive TF2 clan. Our clan name originates from the scout's taunt in TF2 ("Anyone counted my heads batted in? BONNK!" Koopa was onboard from the begining being a friend of Whisp's from a previous lan and Avid TF2 player. Shortly after, two guys who had disbanded from a competitve Call of Duty 2 Clan called Trannyz, Juicey and Coolspot joined up. (We knew them from a previous lan as well) Then Whisp spotted Atomsk in a server and the two got to talking and he joined. Some people left, for personal reasons or inter clan politics, but then we got some wonderful new players, (Delwynndwn) Most of us got to meet at LANS and it only solidified our bond. The rest is history.
Whoa you guys sound cool! How do I join BöNK?
Register for the forum then follow the instructions under the "joining BöNK" thread. After you have made your post there be sure to come in our ventrillo
and try to get in a scrim with us so we can evaluate your skills. Be in vent all the time and play with us as much as possible. If you are up to par, and prove to be a reliable team mate and play OFTEN, you will be admitted to the clan. It is prefered that you live in California so you can attend lans. TIP* idle in our IRC channel #bonk and post here on our forums often! Is there an Age requirment for the clan?
No. Our youngest member is 15. But please note that most of us in the clan are in our 20's so at times there can be some (not a lot) of foul language. It is advised you use a headset while on ventrillo so your parents don't hear some of the things we talk about and never let you play again. Another concern age wise is donating for the private server. Its $5 a month and you have to pay through paypal, which requires a bank account. Also for the lans we go to the minimum age is 16 with a signed parent waiver. So while there is no official age requirment, we prefer players in their 20's but if you own at TF2 it won't matter what age you are. Does BöNK compete in games besides TF2?
No. Currently, we are a Team Fortress 2 clan only. We will however compete at lans in other games for fun, at Acendancy Gaming Never Never Lan 3.0 we even won the Call of Duty 4 tournament. And of course we are all gamers so we play other games just for fun. A bunch of us play Warcraft 3: DotA when we are not playing TF2 Matches or Scrimming. Also Garrys Mod is popular sometimes among a few of us. And the ocassional Call of Duty 4.
We might have divisions of BöNK for other games in the future, but for now just TF2.
