Just don't use Tags or names that are similar or very similar to existing clans/teams.
People will mistaken your team is affiliated with the clans/teams of the similar name. I can only guess, that ToR people will be annoyed to continually deny they are associated/affiliated with Faith Rising (when asked or referenced). Worse case if your members BMs alot, cause tension, etc... they probable will blame TOR (because of the Similarities of Name - its already shown in past post/message in this thread they though Faith Rising Tag was related to ToR, which is unfair to ToR). If this does happen, it might cause conflict between Faith Rising and ToR, It won't end well (as you can imagine). So i suggest you change it now, while the Faith Rising team is new (it will be much harder to change when your team is more settled).
As a new team you don't want you team to be associated with another team, when this is a completely new team/clan. It will cause confusion.
I suggest you rethink your Clan Tag.
Some SuggestIon:
> FR = Faith Rising (sometime keep it simply is always good, for example Evil Genuses = EG)
> FARE = Faith Rising eSport
> FAIR = Faith Rising eSport
> FRE = Faith Rising eSport
> FAITH = Faith Rising
> RISING = Faith Rising
> FAST = Faith Rising eSport
> FRISING = Faith Rising
> Also what others here have suggested as well.
I prefer "FR" or "Faith" (something short).
Some Name Changes:
> FOR = Faith On Rising
> FOR = Faith Of Rising
> FORE = Faith On Rising eSports
> FORE = Faith Of Rising eSports
> FAR = Faith atRising
> FAR = Faith atRising
> FARE = Faith atRising eSports
> FARE = Faith at Rising eSports
> ROF = Rise Of Faith
> ROFE = Rise Of Faith eSport
Sorry if my suggestions are bad, i'm not that creative...lol
Good Luck

I agree with everyone in regards to changing the tag. My first thought was that it was an academy for ToR as it's the same tag with some extra letters (Similar to SLCN and SLCNA as well as fray and fraya).
Tags aside, best of luck with your team! It definitely sounds like it's something you can make work if you're dedicated and it sounds like a great opportunity for the players - I just hope we don't see another turnaround and you've quit SC2 again in a couple of days.
The tag was just there, the name is stciking, I just needed a tag at the time and place, I never actually made the tag official for the team/clan hence why it wasnt listed in the OP, i wanted to talk to members within the team on some ideas I had previously.
Also one of the main reasons behind starting this clan/team is I want to invest my own time and money into helping e-sports, I had tried to apply to a few different teams as a content producer, via my twitch stream and youtube content, however i hadnt heard anything good back from them.
Also my management experience, I have a Diploma in Business Management, so I understand a fair bit in terms of managing, however I am aware that eSports management is a bit different. Also when people are being concerned with monetary benefits of joining this particular team, if something ever went wrong, I would be upfront and honest.
Honestly I would have prefered to invest my time and effort into an already established team, but that wasnt to work, so here I am trying to give it a go.

Yeah...thanks for making the tag clear for us now...Just take what we say here in consideration (you don't have to, but it'll be good if you did), when you decide on your official clan tag. So in that case, i guess we can't wait to see the new official tag for Faith Rising when you release it

Good to hear, as long as you clear and upfront with details to any concerning parties. Can't hurt to give it ago!

Yeah if it goes ahead, don't think my reputation as of late will make this happen, in terms of the team side.
Would you guys like me to rebuild my bname in a respectable way before posting more information about this, or leave this offer open, I am committed to eSports as a whole either way, I would just like to have the team I stand for and the players within it respected.

This could be a great opportunity for those currently not on established teams, or for players looking to step it up to the next level! You've really got nothing to lose by applying. I'm sure FeDe will take the community feedback on board, and do his best going forward.

Reputation can be built from ground up. Just don't do anything negative that might effect your reputation, and you be fine. Since Faith Rising is new, like anything new first impression counts (so make it a good positive one).
Sure since you started the team, you should rebuild your bname in a respectable way, before posting more info. Like a clean slate and show you are more serious in building the Faith Rising Team for eSports.
It ill be alot of work to build a Team Up from scratch, it really needs commitment to kick start the team. Not questioning your commitment, but just stating it will not an easy road!

**** the haters, FeDe. Make the team what you want it to be. All the big orgs in Australia (x5, fray, Immunity, etc) all started off as either small CS or Battlefield clans and grew from there. If you put in the effort you'll make a team out of anything. It just takes work, are you prepared for that?
Good luck mate, dudes settle down and give the guy a chance.
EDIT:
These pun jokes, they are hurting my SouL. Like a Raven picking away at my happiness AurA. You guys need to stop the Vortex of torment before I fede away.
