These few rules are just to give ppl some directions,there is no
capital punishment if you don't follow these few rules lol
1. Respect.
Respect all players, faction and non-faction alike. Anything you do s
hould be done with respect, for your faction members, squad members,
and all the other players in the game. If you are doing something you
wouldn't like done to you, then 9 out of 10 times it's probably not something
other people would like you doing to them.
No abusing accusing and/or threatening members, or any other players on
the server. This gives the faction, and yourself, a very bad name. While some
factions don't care what their members do, we do. Remember, you're not only
here to play a GAME, but you're also representing the faction in all that you do.
If someone has been involved in an incident all members involved are
requested to speak to Officers/GM. In this case all will be investigated and the
appropriate actions can be taken. News travels fast.. especially BAD news.
2. Basic rules in Instances and on General Chat.
Avoid yelling or swearing in a disturbing matter - report incorrect behavior.
Do NOT attend an Instance if you are not sure you can finish the run or if you
have to continually go afk. This causes delays and the group loses (time which
could be spent getting XP elsewhere).
Also, if you DO have to go AFK, please be sure to let someone know.. not just
walk away, and while some of us may play psychics, in real life, we're not.
3. Attitude.
Bad mouthing ANY member or the guild itself in guild chat, any chat
or on the boards is forbidden.
* If you have a complaint, take it first to that player and if you
feel it is serious enough, take it to the officers.
* All Members are expected to treat their fellow guild Members
with respect and dignity at all times.
* No harassing, belittling, stalking or any other behavior
that disrupts the guilds continuity will be allowed.
* Petty arguments and disagreements will not be tolerated.
4. Language
Bad language is not encouraged although understood at certain times.
Some of us have kids and some of them can read. Plus, just because
your kids are in bed doesn't mean ours are. The game is Global, that
means that there are 24 different timezones.
* NEVER in area chat, shout or other channels.
* Avoided in guild chat as much as possible.
* Includes acronyms that mask bad language.
5. No heavy trade in the guild/ to guildies.
Try to avoid selling items to fellow guildies, if at all possible, giving is much nicer
(Unless it is a legendary item you paid for, or a TT Mat you farmed for yourself, etc...)
Charge fair prices, do NOT rip a guildie off.
6. Treatment of others.
Treat the game and guild members and any other players exactly how you also
like to be treated. (What you give is what you get.)
7. Kill/Mine Stealing is not permitted.
Blatant and/or continuous kill stealing is not permitted.
The occasional, "Oops, my bad." is understandable. But outright shadowing
someone and sniping all the things that they are after is not.
8. ((These requirements are lowered till further notice))
Level requirement: lvl 40+ (any level for now). And Age requirement: 18+(close to it
will also be accepted)
9. Discrimination and causing Offense.
Discussions that may discriminate or cause offense on the grounds of
sex, disability, race, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion or beliefs
will not be tolerated. Anything that you say that may cause offense may
lead to you being removed from the Guild and possibly face a permanent ban
not only from the Guild but also the Game. Please be careful what you write!
10. Switching Guilds.
We realize that people's goals and ideals change over time. If at any time, you
find another guild that more suitable to you, we extend our blessings to you
with no ill will. Please notify the guild, especially the officers of your intention
to seek a new family, and you will be given honor and best wishes on your
continuing journey.
While it is highly encouraged to keep your alternate characters in the family
as well, this is not a requirement.
11. Alternates in the Faction
As of right now, we are not a large enough faction where we will
say "no alternates" as a matter of fact we encourage you to have your
alts in the faction as well.. you've already meshed with the people in this
faction.. what is the point of trying to go to another faction with an alt just
to not find people who will help you when you need it.
This does not mean that if you have 10 characters that all of them should
be in the faction, but if you have 2 or 3 that are all ACTIVELY played (doing
dailies on a character doesn't count as active), those 2 or 3 are more than welcome.
12. New Members.
New members are invited after having traveled and or talked with one of
our members for some time and after being approved by an officer of the guild.
This is not necessarily an extensive process, but if you wish to join us you must
travel and or some good talk with us.
After a couple of weeks the officer(s) will decide on whether the new member
will remain with us or not.
If the new member is a real life friend IE someone you have hung out with and
are close with in real life, they can join us and not be subject to the "couple of
week" rule.
Upon inviting someone to the guild, be sure to inform them of the forum
and ask them to sign up. Let everyone know if you have invited someone
to the guild (and if they are a friend/family IRL) so there are no surprises
later on, basically, put a post on the forum.
13. Looking for handouts.
Begging for free items or power leveling is forbidden both within the guild
and without. If you need assistance in obtaining class armor or an item that
you desire put in a request with an Officer. There is nothing more annoying
in the game it seems than people asking for money.
14. Drop stealing.
Ninja Looting (picking up items that are there because someone has died, or
because they are fighting something else that attacked them before they could
pick it up) any item for any reason will not be tolerated. If the pick up timer
has expired on an item or coin while you're out doing quests or grinding, this
is a whole different thing.
15. Activity/Inactivity.
You must remain active in game and/or on website. If you are inactive, and
you haven't mentioned why (in writing on the forums, or via email), after
60 Days, you will be removed from the faction and set to archive on website.
After an additional 10 days your account on the website will be removed as will
all posts by you. At the time you become active you are welcome back in and
put back to full member.
NOTE: Telling an officer is fine, but that officer needs to inform others so that
everyone "in charge" knows what is going on.
16. Bragging
So, you can kill a boss solo? That means, if someone else needs that boss,
you SHOULD be able to help. Don't say that you can do it then ask for help
with it yourself. Same goes for quests.
i.e. "Oh, I play with those mobs all the time...".. (followed by) "you could help
me kill them if you don't mind"
17. Crafting.
If you have a crafting skill of any kind please be sure to help others out when
they needs things crafted. This does not only apply to armor and weapons, but
to apothecary goods as well. This does not mean that you are required to "give up"
your hard earned mats for someone else, but if you have the skill and they have
the mats and the need, do the right thing.
18. FB runs.
If you are doing an FB run for someone in or out of the faction, remember, it's
their run, their tabs, they get the drops. (This holds especially true for 3-star
items and molds)
19. And pleeeeaaasseee...don't make a mess of our forum.
Try to search for the right topic first (perhaps it's already there) and
no bullshit pls.
**More rules may be added from time to time it is up to you to keep informed of
the Faction Rules as ignorance is not an acceptable excuse for breaking a rule**
