THE GUILD CHARTER


Here are the general guild rules and guildlines that you should all follow as a member of All Nuke Skull.



1) No begging for money or a loan

Whether this is in gchat, in private messages, on trade or general channels, we will not have guild members begging for money.

Even if you are asking for a loan of gold, you will get one warning, then we will kick you from the guild.

Begging and asking for loans makes you look bad and reflects badly on the guild. Getting into a borrowing/loaning situation often results in people getting hurt and angry and leads to drama. We will not tolerate it.

2) No begging to borrow someones account.

Because of obvious reasons regarding the security of an account, and because it is possibly one of the most insulting things you can ask someone on wow, this offence is an instant gkick and we will also report you to Blizzard.

3) No begging for boosts

We will not put up with people asking for high-level characters to "boost" them through low level content. This applied to both gchat and whispers. (We suggest you check LFG and go about the normal route of finding a group).

It is fine for a high-level character to offer to "boost" someone through low-level content in gchat.

4) No gchat spam

Use your head and try not to spam gchat too much. We have a fairly low tolerance to that sort of thing.

This means no constant repeat of the same request or question, over and over and over again. If someone didn't reply the first, second or third time, they ain't going to answer you on the fourth, fifth and sixth.

This also means no multi-line macros that have no specific purpose (flags made from raid icons, ASCII moonkin, etc). It's probably funny once, but any more than that and these tend to get old really quickly.

The occasional (and we mean occasional) recount output is fine. And of course, the officers will probably spam mumble details and other info from time to time... This is ok.

We don't expect to see Dirge or Anal spam or it's equivalent.

Guild chat spam could result in a warning or a gkick.

5) General Behaviour and Feedback

We will not tolerate abusive or overly immature behaviour for very long. We also don't like people who whine constantly about wiping in raids, not being picked for raids, not getting their drop, how they have no money, etc. We like positive, friendly people... People who know how to help themselves, know when to /w an officer instead of venting in gchat or voice comms, who know negative commentary can have an effect of the people around them. Know when to shut up basically (!) but also know when to talk to an officer for help, advice and support.

Obviously we welcome feedback and carefully constructed (and constructive) critisism and the usual place for this is the forum.

Constantly telling the Guild Master or Officers that they are wrong or that guild policy is wrong/stupid/unfair will not be tolerated. Make your views known, but then give the guild leadership time to analyse the situation and make the necessary decision. At the end of the day, if there is something about the guild that you cannot live with, you have the right to find another.

6) Represent your Guild

You all represent All Nuke Skull. In every instance, every raid, every battlegroup, you are a representative of this guild. You owe it to your fellow members to show the qualities befitting a true hero of the Alliance. Respect, honour, all that kind of stuff :)

7) Coming to a Raid

Please check the Raiding Manifesto for details on our raid expectations.

8) Loot

Please see the Loot rules for details of our looting policy. And remember that nobody likes a loot whore!

9) Be online at least once a month

30 Days without being online will result in a kick. Report your extended downtime on the forums to avoid this fate. This rule allows us to keep the guild roster under control. If you do get kicked for being offline, you can always ask for a re-invite when you return.

10) Sign up to the website using your Main characters name

This will allow you to sign up for raids. Please let the guild officers/Guild Master know of any alts you wish to associate with this website account.


11) Applying to another guild

If you are planning on leaving us for another guild, and have applied for a position somewhere else, please do us the courtesy of telling the guild officers of your intentions, and then making your goodbyes before leaving.

We have no wish to continue to gear you up so that you can then move onwards to another guild. If we discover your application to another guild we will generally kick you anyway.

Leaving your current guild before applying elsewhere is often seen as good courtesy. If will also mean that you leave us on good terms, should your planned move not turn out for the best, you won't have burnt your bridges :)


12) Inappropriate gchat

It has been said in the past that our gchat is sexist, homophobic and occasionally racist.

Personally I don't agree...

Sure, our gchat is pretty immature considering most of us are supposedly grown-up adults, and it's fair to say that there are is alot of foul language and purile humour flying around, and I would absolutely agree that we do take the piss out of certain minority groups (like the Scottish) and have occasionally labeled bosses/raids/groups/classes/characters/people as "gay".

But I'll try to be clear. There is a line there somewhere, that we really shouldn't cross. There is a difference between some banter between friends, and being overtly offensive.

For example, (aside from those directed at the English/Scottish) we have a pretty low tolerance of racial slurs. Or the fact that we have previously found it funny to call one of our friends a beaver-leaver or todger-dodger, but declaring that something nasty should happen to all gay and lesbian players would definately be a no-no.

So, if you think someone has crossed a line, let an officer know and we will deal with it. We all like to have a laugh... But we don't generally want to hurt anyones feelings, or make people feel discriminated against.
