as you might know Banana Squad was inactive for a long time but now we are back and we currently keep our full attention to recruiting new members to fill up our ranks.
At the moment BsQ is organized by three members only. Enough space for new recruits though...
Just send us an email with your application to "Daoltpyrc@googlemail.com" and you will receive an answer within a few days.
Besides the rebuilding we also changed our clantag into "BsQ!_" so peel your eyes for new BsQ members.
Last but not least if there is any question about BsQ just send us an email.

after a decent talk between mastox and me he decides to leave the Banana Squad.
Thank you mastox for the short but good time and helping building up the domain and website.
I wish you good luck with building up your own project, your own clan and i hope we will meet ingame again to have fun playing with or against each other...
Because it is time for Banana Squads first Stargate: Resistance clanfight against the enemy named Half Breed.
Until everything is set up like rules and standards, servers, exact date of expiration and line up both teams. You will be able to read and get informations and news on the forum and on our homepage from time to time.
Banana Squad feels very exciting for that match and expects a fair and pulsating fight between both clans.
