WE WANT SWAT 5!!!!!

Thanks to Hawk_2_6 for posting a link in our forums to a petition requesting Swat 5. It is kind of hidden, so I am posting it here:
http://www.petitiononline.com/swat5/petition.html
All members are required to sign this petition. (all should want to anyway) and lets all try to get a few friends to do the same. IT DOESNT GET ANY BIGGER THAN THIS FELLAS. We have a chance to let Sierra know that there is a market for this game and it is long overdue. I thank you for your efforts regarding this crucial matter.

[VOWS] Server in need of YOUR help

[VOWS] has been very pleased to provide all members and friends alike the most realistic, tactical experience with the SWAT series going on 9 years now. We have not asked for many folks to contribute to server costs and have even slid down a notch in order to keep the fees resaonable. Stinger posted this request in our forums, but it is a much more serious problem and needs to have a spotlight put on it. We are asking everyone who participates on our SWAT 4 server to donate what they can. Even if its 2 dollars. Every bit of it helps. Your contribution will not be used for anything other than server costs. If we receive too much, it will be carried over to the next payment. I know it is the holiday season and money is tough, but we are asking you give what you can. Any and all donations will be greatly appreciated. This will allow us to continue to provide the community with a quality place to learn and be a part of. Please do what you can. Thank you.

[VOWS] would like to welcome our newest member!

[VOWS] is proud to announce yet another member to our great clan. [VOWS]_Dark has now been granted tags. I know that you all have been seeing quite a few tags being issued recently. Our newest members have been working a long time, and putting forth great efforts to achieve their tags. So, I dont want to discourage our new recruits, but it is not easy getting in to this clan, for a reason. It just so happens that these officers were ready for membership around the same time. I just didnt want to mislead anyone. Welcome aboard Dark and congrats. EL

[VOWS] News Update

Hello folks! There has been a lot going on as of late. In case you havent heard, our friends over at lARUl are once again hosting another Co-Op tournament. We look to defend our title from the last one held. Teams are forming and we could always use more people. Send PM's to Stinger if interested. I want to throw an idea out there, maybe we could add a team called [VOWS-Rec] in to the mix. That team would consist of hopeful members that havent been granted tags, but have been notified they are under review. What better way to get noticed, than to perform and display [VOWS] tactics in a real competition? Just an idea.

[VOWS] is proud to announce that we have accepted Luiggy as a member. If you see him around, be sure to give him a warm welcome.

As our clan continues to grow, we cannot lose focus. Focus on teamwork, tactics and building chemistry with your teammates is what we are all about. Do YOUR part out there to make sure that ALL players join our server get the chance to participate in something not found anywhere else. When you wear [VOWS] wear it proudly and know that you represent our clan while wearing them. This doesnt mean be cocky, but bestill the integrity of the name. I myself will periodically be joining the server to observe gameplay and tactics. I may be doing this with a different name, maybe my real name. I dont have a working mic, but will be observing. Just giving a heads up!! I look forward to seeing you guys out there.
