			# '''Where You Build''': Where you build affects your membership within the HOA. (Below assumes you already have membership)
			#* '''Member''' - Build inside the HOA compound. This gives you full access to all HOA benefits including defense and resources. (Building on the hill directly above the compound where you can see into the compound and still be helpful can be counted as building inside the compound)
			#* '''Alliance''' - Build outside the HOA compound but within our territory. (We will share information with you and to potentially help you when you are in trouble)
			#* '''Truce''' - Build outside the HOA territory.
			# '''How You Build''': We have had to make some guidelines for building within the compound to make it easier to move through the compound.
			#* If your base is near an exit people need to be able to get to the exit without being shot by your turrets. '''Place the turrets lower''' so we can put up a defensive wall to give people a path to get out. Allow leaders to place those walls.
			#* Building your base near but not on the outer edge is preferred. Do not let your turrets go over the outer walls as we have to walk around the walls to check them many times a day.
			#* There are walls around the compound. Do not place walls around your base. Too many walls causes lag. Also gives a place for the enemies to hide. And more importantly, if you're base decays then we just have a circular wall with nothing in it. Which is a problem.

	# '''Conflict''': Just because you have a gun does not mean you can go on a killing spree of your own HOA members. If you have an issue with one or more players please notify your ~~Clan/Squad~~ leader or talk to ~~the All-Father~~. Give them a chance to help you sort out your issues. The goal is for everyone to enjoy the game and each other. HOA does not kill HOA. HOA does not Raid other HOA Members. Doing so can get you exiled from the HOA Territory.		# '''Conflict''': Just because you have a gun does not mean you can go on a killing spree of your own HOA members.

We will find out.
