Guild Rules 
Edit
RoleplayEdit
This is a Roleplay (RP) and Player verses Player (PvP) guild. As for the Roleplay aspect of the guild, we consider ourselves to be medium to heavy roleplay. This means members are expected to be In Character (IC) most of the time, and ready to roleplay at any time, unless they otherwise state they are Out of Character (OOC). The majority of RP takes place in /say, and in face to face rp, unless the said characters have means to communicate privately (telepathy, buzzbox, soulstone, hearthstone, etc). Roleplay may also happen in whispers and party, but these "channels" are generally Out of Character unless specified otherwise. Guild chat is In Character, and handled as if it were a buzzbox, voice only. Members are NOT required to RP during pvp or instances. However, rp based on the occurances and outcomes in the instance, raid, pvp encounter, or questing is possible and likely. Members are expected to be tolerant of non-rpers, respectful and helpful of rp newcomers. Do not grief "bad rpers" or griefers. Style of RP: Turn Based. This means, with rare exception, that rp will be on a turn by turn basis, without the use of dueling or dice, except in rare circumstances. All actions, whether antagonistic or benign are to be ATTEMPTED. No exceptions. No god moding. Character limits: Characters roleplayed strengths and abilites are to be limited to their level and in game abilities. Exceptions to this may be made with the consent of the guild master and other players involved. Romance and ERP: This is NOT an ERP guild. Such rp should be kept private, and out of Guild Chat. Romance between characters is fine so long as it is kept tasteful. Personal Boundaries: Many people set boundaries for what they will allow to happen to their characters. These may include, but are not limited to, ERP, Romance, Violence, Torture, Kidnapping, and Death. Respect these boundaries! Expect people to respect yours.
Player verses PlayerEdit
This is a Roleplay (RP) and Player verses Player (PvP) guild. PvP can be a touchy area for some people, and many are afraid to try it, especially coming from an RP realm. This guild is intended to organize and teach players how to PvP as well as enjoy RP. As such, we will be hosting different types of events in which members are expected to attend. These may include dueling contests, Class meetings, Weekly focus on a Battleground, defense of an Alliance town under attack, or planned strikes against the Horde. Call to Arms: This is when a Leader calls for the guild to assemble for a pvp event. It may be impromptu, it may be planned. All members are expected to gather as directed unless they are already otherwise occupied (such as in an instance) Flagging: Blue Flagging is highly frowned upon! All members are expected to be flagged BEFORE attacking a member of the Horde. Accidents happen, however, in which case, appologize. Members that perpetually blue flag run the risk of being removed from the guild. Corpse Camping: Generally frowned upon. Enemy players should be permitted to heal up, rebuff, and prepare for battle again before they are attacked. However. If they are camping and griefing an alliance settlement, then it is acceptable to drive them out. Leaders: All members are expected to follow the instructions of a Leader if there is one present at the site of the battle. If there is more than one Leader, they may defer to each other, CLEARLY naming one as leader, or, collect members into smaller, organized groups, each with its own Leader.
RanksEdit
Each Rank has a purpose. Every member holding a rank is expected to contribute to that rank's purpose. Promotion: Promoting is done by the guild master at the request or recommendation of the various officers. Demotion: Generally this will be at the request of the one being demoted, as many of the ranks are by volunteer, and have jobs associated to them. This is called "Stepping Down". Such members may be asked to help select their replacement. In the event that an officer is not performing his or her duties associated with his or her rank, then they may be demoted, and replaced. This is to ensure the guild functions smoothly. Demotion for behavior will generally be a removal from the guild. Kicking: Removal from the guild may occur for any of the following reasons, with or without warning, by the Guild Master: Excessive blue flagging and/or corpse camping. overstepping players personal boundaries. Disrespect of other players. starting and/or participating in OOC Drama.
Out of CharacterEdit
Respect in general. Be respectful of your fellow players, we're all here to enjoy what this game has to offer.
Guild History Edit
PastEdit
PresentEdit
Plans for the FutureEdit
Ranks Edit
InitiateEdit
These are the newcomers to the guild. Initiates will spend some time with their class's Class Head, who will determine what rank they would best fit into. If the class Head decides they need assistance for leveling or otherwise, he or she will pair them up with a Senior ranked member of the same class. Otherwise, the Class head will advise promotion to the Loner, or, if they are willing to mentor, to the Senior rank.
Requirements: Must be willing to roleplay and pvp.
Class: Any
Level: Any
May be promoted to: Decoy, Junior, Loner, or Senior.
DecoyEdit
These are Alts of various members above the rank of Initiate. They are generally OOC, and only join the guild for the camaraderie of their guild friends, and/or to escape the harassment of other guilds requesting charter signatures or random guild invites. These characters are not expected to Roleplay.
Requirements: Must have a character in the Junior or above rank.
Class: Any
Level: Any
May be promoted to: No promotion, unless the character is intended to become an active member of the guild, Then they are moved to the rank of Initiate, and advance from there.
JuniorEdit
These are the first full member rank in the guild. They are the lesser experienced of the member population, and ALWAYS paired with a Senior for guidance and assistance. Once the Junior member has gained enough experience, and understands their class to match that of their mentor, they will be tested for promotion by their Class Head. Promotion will be to either Loner, or, if they want the responsibility of mentoring the inexperienced as they were mentored, to the rank of Senior.
Requirements: Must be willing to roleplay and pvp. Must respect and heed the advice of their mentor (May ask to be reassigned).
Class: Any
Level: Any
May be promoted to: Loner or Senior
LonerEdit
Loners know their class. They are experienced enough to stand on their own, and COULD mentor, if they wanted to. These are the experienced members who do not want the added responsibility of the Seniors, or may be less active. They can be any race and class, but should be higher leveled.
Requirements: Must be willing to roleplay and pvp.
Class: Any
Level: 80 (exceptions may be made)
May be Promoted to: No promotion
SeniorEdit
Like Loners, Seniors know their class very well. Because of this, they have VOLUNTEERED to mentor the less experienced members of their class. They determin the number of Juniors they will take on to mentor (though may be paired with less, or asked to take more, depending on the guild's population). They will be paired with a Junior partner by their Class head. Seniors are expected to ASSIST (do not power level or do the work for them, please!) their Junior partner, teaching them about Talent builds, gear, and techniques. Seniors are NOT required to run their partners through instances, nor GIVE gear or money to their Junior partners, but may if they choose. They are, however, expected to spend some one on one time with their partners, and possibly assist with particularly difficult quests.
Requirements: Must be willing to roleplay and pvp. Must be willing to mentor and assist less experienced members.
Class: Any
Level: 80 (exceptions may be made)
If Released, to: Loner
May be Promoted to: Class Head
LeaderEdit
Leaders assist in the organization and running of PVP events for the guild. These might be Battlegrounds, Wintergrasp, Horde City raids, Defense of Alliance settlements, or otherwise. These players have a general to extensive knowledge in all classes, and will work closely with the Class Heads to teach members techniques to use in various situations. If one is in a pvp group, members are expected to defer to and follow their lead. Leaders may specialize in certain battlegrounds or other types of pvp encounters.
