The First Fleet is a combined US-Oceanic social/raiding guild on Eonar US. The active membership is roughly split in half between those living in the United States and those living in either Australia or New Zealand, and as such the guild leadership has attempted to ensure that both sides are able to raid.

Guild Rules
Edit
We expect all Fleet Members to be courteous and respectful to EVERYONE that they encounter while representing the Guild. Whether it be enjoying the company of your closest friends and Guildies or having to grit your teeth through that random soul-destroying PUG with people from another realm acting like 5-year-olds, the common theme is that we expect Fleeters to take the higher ground and represent the Guild with respect.
The full and current list of guild rules is available on the guild website.
Raid RulesEdit
Members should generally be online 10 minutes before Raid start. If you aren't, you can and will be replaced. Look for your character to be as prepared as possible. Be repaired, prepared to use potions, reagents and food buffs, and most importantly, use the multitude of resources available online to know at least the fundamentals of the Boss encounters for Raid that you're entering.
Ventrilo is mandatory for all raiders. Members who sign up for raids must be present when invites go out; if they cannot be present, they must inform an officer. Members who sign up but do not receive invites are asked to stand by in the event that they are needed to replace a member of the raid.
The complete story on raids and invites is in the guild rules on the guild website.
Loot RulesEdit
Loot is distributed to any suitable character by a Random Roll, but there is a priority list. Main Characters win over Alts and Main Spec wins over Off Spec. Main Spec items are one per person at the start of a Raid and are counted even if your roll is uncontested. There are some exceptions and finer details, and they are also available in the guild rules on the guild website.
ScheduleEdit
The raiding schedules varies a bit from week to week and is maintained using the in-game calendar by the raid leaders. Current ICC raiding occurs on Friday and Saturday nights (server time).
More information on Cataclysm raiding schedules will be posted sometime after December 7.
Guild RanksEdit
The guild is made up of the following ranks:
- The Dread Pirate (Guild Master)
- Captain (Guild Officers and their Alts)
- Raider (Main raiders, have priority for the more cutting-edge content. Ranks are reset with each new content patch.)
- Mate (The majority of the Guild)
- Deckhand (All non-Officer Alts)
- Swab (Newly recruited players)
All new players to the Guild will be automatically ranked as a "Swab" when they are invited.
