Guild:Saints Of Judgement (historical)

Saints Of Judgement [SOJ]
We are a rebuilding guild, one that is especially interested in new players who wish to get good advice and be among other friendly players. This guild is one of two that have united beyond the alliance level. The two halls of this guild are used to provide our members with two levels of guild chat to choose from. The Einherjar Legion hall is for players over 18 who wish their guild chat and local chat for their hall to be limited only by the Guild Wars Code of Conduct. The Saints of Judgement hall is for players under 18 and those that wish their chat to be kept within a PG film rating.

We have some very experienced, great players who enjoy helping others get started on their way to greatness. We like to play, and play often. We want friendly new members who will play often too. We are exclusively playing against the environment, and will likely continue to do that. We will wecome PvP players who wish to expand their play to include PvE.

After over a year of play, it's pretty clear to us that player versus player and guild versus guild are good ways to cause hard feelings. We don't want that. We want long-term solid players who enjoy the intricacies of taming the game environment in new ways.

All members must serve as officers; we rotate recruiting officers every month...there are 3 judgement committee officers, and 3 officers for recruiting. The committee officers recruit too, but they also decide what actions are needed for guild rule infractions. The committee officers are permanent appointments, replacing the guild leader position.

Our rules are simple...do not insult other players, do not break the Guild Wars code of conduct, and do not seek to take advantage of other players...be they in or out of our guild.

Only initiate sales of items to members when they have said they need such an item.

Use our local chat and guild chat following the general guidelines for a PG film...no direct or vivid depictions of anything crude or lewd, and no words from George Carlin's infamous "words you won't hear on television".

That's about it for rules.

Note that clever and witty adult remarks well hidden in innuendo and double entenres are well within the guild guidelines...just don't make remarks that are so unsubtle that kids uder 12 can easily figure out what is meant. We hope fun remarks, including sly symbolism, will abound in our chat...we want it to be fun to read and participate in!

Recruitment
Here's the deal:

You need to be an active player...unless you have very good excuses, you will get kicked for any absence over 2 weeks long. Vacations and such constitute good excuses, as do real world problems. Going off to play other games for extended periods does not count as a good excuse.

You must be willing to help...being an officer, recruiting, and helping new members get started are responsbilities shared by all of us.

We try to stay within the GW code of conduct for all in-game actions. See the official Guild Wars web site for what their rules are. We further restrict guild chat, local chat, and alliance chat for purposes of not offending the sensibilities of others. We do not allow the insulting of other players...that includes calling names, disparaging builds, or snide remarks about battle prowess, and any other things that would cause unnecessary hard feelings. We especially do NOT allow racial, sexual, or gender biases and prejudices.
