I don't think it's ridiculous...just don't think it sounds right....I'm not totally opposed to it....just my opinion.
This isn't a frickin' college fraternity, I'm not in the service and I'm not catholic!

How about this in Latiin: "Totus vestrum es noobs"

LOL I'm with you Charles and Glock. After 2 years of Latin in college I was all latin crazy using it for every game character I could - a few years later and now I think it is just silly. May as well use sanscrit, cuniform, or Japanese. But since we are all English speakers with no doctors or lawyers (that I know of), English will do fine. I like a lot of the suggestions.

Here is a list of ALL the ones suggested in this thread, even the silly ones. In yellow are the popular ones, in red are the ones I know were just jokes, orange are the others that haven't been commented on.
Fight To Be United
Bound By Honor <--- one of the best IMHO
Kicking Ass and Taking Gamertags
Pwning Kids and Porking Their Moms
Alone We Are Seperate, Together We Are Sacred
'Til All Are Seven
We're the Big Spoon, You're the Little One
Beware of the Mexican
Pwning noobs since..... actually....not that long.....
In Union Their Is Strength
United We Stand, Divided We Fall
Always As One
Strength In Numbers <--- my favorite so far
Heaven Sent, Hell Bent <--- not bad at all
Virtus, Integritas, Veritas
Courage, Integrity, Truth
Integritas, Virtus, Veritas
Honorem Restituimus
Semper Anticus
In Solidarity We Stand
Clan of One
Ride or Die <--- oh please no
It's All Good in the Hood <--- no really, no means no!
A kingdom divided against itself cannot stand; in solidarity we stand!
Try It, You'll Like It <--- stranger danger!
REGULATORS... Mount up! <--- 16 in the clip and 1 in the hole...
Because 6 wasn't enough <--- I like it - funny but not ridiculous
The 7 Pillars of Justice
Why is 6 afraid of 7? Because Panzer is a noob.
We ARE the Seventh Sign
Live by the 7 Virtues
Get On Our Horse
Gargle Our Balls
All For 7 and 7 for All
S7: The Dropbear Experts
S7: Yes We Can
S7: Hope and Change
Founded On Friendship
A Higher Standard
Live with Honor
Game with Honor
Your Days are Numbered <--- Not bad really

LOL Get on our Horse was a joke one as well, but I think only a few poeple will get it.......*Looks at Sticky

Wasnt sure about that one. Edited. Some of the others are probably jokes but didn't want to offend anyone by assuming that.

Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat.

Theodore Roosevelt

On a more serious note I always liked this quote. A bit too long for a motto I think, but very good and it somewhat fits with where we are now.

"Alone we are seperate, together we are sacred"

"Bound By Honor" seem to be the best two

Here is a few: if you wanna be hardcore, you gotta play hardcore
don't run away, you'll just die tired
the S7 do not die, we just go to hell and regroup
others will fallow... Where we will lead
the strength of the clan is it's members, the strength of the member IS the clann,
play with the best or die with the rest
life an't nothing but bitchs and money ( jk)
Honor thy brothers.. Kill the others

Idk but this always fills me with pride

"No Mission Too Difficult, No Sacrifice Too Great, Duty First"
1ST INFANTRY DIVISION
but then again its of topic

i was all ready heading out side to get on my horse f#cker =)

Or we can not have one and just let our skills do the talking.

But I already have a motto:

S7 K1ll3rKlown: "If you see me, you're already dead!"

LOL

"S7 do not die, we just go to hell and regroup."

My vote

I also like bound by honor

victory comes from harmony
You'll Never Walk Alone
Love for all, hatred for none!
Act well your part. There all the honor lies.
By Work and Integrity
We aim for better things
In Unity, There is Strength
Many minds, one heart
Not For Ourselves, But For The Whole
Where there is Virtue, there shall be Victory
What a good thing it is to dwell together in unity
The vision that you glorify in your mind, the ideal that you
enthrone in your heart, this you will build your life by, this you will
become

Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow; Don't walk behind me, I
may not lead; Walk beside me, and just be my friend.

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to
what lies within us.

I will act as if what I do makes a difference.

"I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to
succeed, but I am bound to live by the light that I have. I
must stand with
anybody that stands right, stand with him while he is right,
and part with
him when he goes wrong."
- Abraham Lincoln

I like this one....very nice Thunder.

I don't like "Bound by Honor" sounds a little cliché

Definition of cliché: is a saying, expression, idea, or element of an artistic work which has been overused to the point of losing its original meaning or effect

How about an old stanby..."Your mamma!!"

Wasn't it you that came up with "Strength in numbers"? LOL

Anyhow, as a matter of fact my 2 current favorites are "Bound by Honor" and "Strength in Numbers".

Both are easily memorable, and a simple statement that defines us as a clan.

I know....I know.... Always just my opinion and whatever is decided...I'll go with. "Strength in Numbers" was actually a band that I listened to a long time ago and always thought their name was cool...not to mention the band had the likes of Béla Fleck (banjo), Mark O'Connor (fiddle), Sam Bush (mandolin), Jerry Douglas (dobro) and Edgar Meyer (bass).
There is also a song by the same name that is uplifting:

This goes out to everyone who is sick and tired
of being prosecuted for being different.
This is more than just a song,
more like a ballad for those who want to be free
and this is about gathering together against the ones who said
that you can't be whoever you want to be.
So are you ready to stand up for yourself
and show the world what you really think.
Then raise your voice and let them know exactly who you are.
This is all of our family cause this right here, this is a family!

I can't believe that this happening
A million others can't breathe
We follow everything I said
These words are words to live by
We have the power, the strength in numbers
Your eyes are open, but can you see without the light?

So do you notice that cut at your side?
Do you feel the pain? Do you feel alive?
We walk these paths side by side
We will be ok, we will be alive

I am who I am, is that so hard?
To realize that we are who we are
You can't live your life, hoping you were wrong
You can follow us and join the thousand strong

And as we gather together
To face the ones who oppose us
We have one thing left to say.

Your time is up now, this is our world.

I should've known that this was happening
Everybody's trembling
Fall to your knees, we are here to stay
This is your last chance to be this way
I can finally say this is the way

This was worth fighting, worth dying for!

So....as you can see...I put a lot of thought into "The actual meaning" I was trying to project and I am also Director of Business Development so there's my "Sales Pitch" on "Strength in Numbers"...

I like a lot of the mottos and think the founding fathers should pick. They're the ones that started the clan and picked all the other badass stuff that made we uber exited about joining the clan . Maybe you guys could combine the two, like this or something: we are a brotherhood bound by honor, our strength is in our numbers, we are s7

quite possibly the best one yet

Very Nice indeed....Thanks Droopy

My only issue is that with "strength in numbers" is that it is implied when we are solo we suck.

Right! And "in unity" is more of a collective as to what we value as a clan...whether your playing by yourself or fellow clanmates the clan as a whole is unified and strong by the same mind and practice of our virtues. And really it's not strength in numbers...example look at the most elite military units of the present and past they were small units or trained in such a way that there training and doctrine were able to take on whole armies. Our strength lies in our values as a clan and our practice of it. Look at Master Chief he been owning the covenant for years lol! and he's just one Spartan Super Soldier. What makes us strong is not how many of us there are but how we function as a whole...that's what will keep us together!

"Our strength lies in our Brotherhood, Our unity bonds us together"

Strength in numbers has the double meaning of the 7 virtues and their strength. Also, I see it as having a group with the same ideals, and who have each others backs. Not necessarily an overwhelming force type of reference, but a unity reference as well.

I get it, I really do. It just when ever I hear the term strength in numbers it makes me think along those lines.

How bout "S7: Strength in Numbers, but we don't totally suck solo either (at least not all of us)."
