 These clan rules may change at any time, and you are responsible for following them.

should be  to follow them.

Well are you sure?? I think it is correct. "For" should be used, not "to".

make it " and you're obliged to follow them"... I win!

p.s. I am sure, but maybe some native speakers should have a say...

If you use "responsible", then it should be followed by "for".
Your other example is different... as if you said:
You are expected to follow them.
But if you are responsible, you are responsible FOR something, not to something.

It is your responsibility to know the rules, therefore you are responsible for following them.  ;D

- These clan rules may change at any time, ignorance to such changes is not a valid excuse for not following them.  Unless of course you pretend your role is to not follow them moments after being called out.  ;D
