You may, or may not, have previously perused the very brief posts in-game that address our guild policy. Regardless, we offer a much more in-depth wall of text here, so that you may get a better grasp on our expectations, without the very restricting word limit!
1. Adhere to basic gaming etiquette.
That is our only requirement! We have no requirements regarding level, class, gaming experience, and as I will touch upon next, play-time. We only ask that as a guild member, you follow a very basic code-of-conduct, which is explained further at the bottom, under “BEHAVIOR”.
You will notice that many guilds have a very strict rule concerning a member’s activeness, meaning how much time they spend on the game per week, and in some cases, per day. This is ridiculous. Being in a guild is not a job, having a real job sucks enough, that mentality shouldn’t carry over into something you enjoy in your free time.
We do not require a set amount of play-time, however the roster tends to fill up quick, and we’d hate to miss out on that next amazing guild member because our roster is at capacity with people who don’t plan on returning. On the flip-side, we’d rather have a guild full of slightly less-active people that we have bonded with, than one full of very active strangers. So, we have a very generous case-by-case policy to attempt to find that middle ground.
We eventually must assume that you aren’t coming back, and so after a period of 2-3 months with no word from you, there is a chance we will kick you, especially when the join-rate is high. However, if you warn us in advance that you are going to be away, are busy with school, having computer problems, or are simply taking a break, we won’t kick you. All you need to do is communicate with us, and we will accommodate you!
If your computer is having issues, you may contact us at this website, or on our discord channel, both of which have mobile apps if you have a smart phone to download them with.
If something happens and we kick you, and you decide to return to the game, simply send me, or any of the admin, a mail in-game and we will invite you again.
There is no contribution requirement in this guild, it is completely optional! However doing so is extremely helpful, as it increases the level of the guild! When the level of the guild increases, the guild buff is increased, and I get a supply sack full of goodies to put into the guild auction!
You can gain contribution by donating materials to the guild, which can be done on the main page of the guild interface. (Hotkey G)
If you have any of the materials currently needed, the orange "Contribute” button will be lit up, just click the arrow until you reach the amount you wish to donate. Alternatively, if you want to speed it up and don’t know how many you have scattered among your bag and bank, type ‘500′ into the box and it will automatically correct it to the exact number that you have!
As mentioned above, we do require a pretty basic level of etiquette and manner of conduct in this guild.
We do not abide by Racism, Sexism, Homophobia, Transphobia or any other harmful and ignorant behaviors. This is meant to be a safe place, and we will not hesitate to kick and block whoever we need to in order to keep it that way. If you feel that you have been a victim of any one of these in our guild, promptly mail or private message any of our admin and will look into it as soon as possible.
We highly approve of profanity, stupid jokes, and general silliness. We encourage everyone to be themselves and have a good time, but please be aware of yourself and respect others in the process. Do not harass or belittle your fellow guild members. Racial slurs, jokes about rape, sexual harassment, and bashing religion is not OK. Please don’t make me have to come chew you out, it’s awkward for everyone. If you can’t make a joke without stepping on and harming someone else, you aren’t very funny.
Lastly, gaming etiquette! This is very important. Many players in Dragomon Hunter, and all MMOs across the net, are severely lacking when it comes to gaming etiquette. Just because other players, parties, and guilds do not do things the way we do, does not mean we enforce it any less. You do not have to be in our guild, there are plenty of other guilds to choose from, and there will not be any hard feelings if you decide our way does not suit you.
1. Wait for all party members to be present before starting a dungeon!
This is very simple, but probably one of the hardest things for players to grasp. We know you are in a rush and want to get things done, but it is extremely rude to rush off and start pulling or killing mobs when your other party members haven’t even gotten inside the dungeon!
Additionally, even if you feel that the mobs are low-level and not worth fighting, you never know what your teammates want to get out of that particular dungeon, mobs can often drop Dragocites and other useful items that someone else might be trying to get. When you start combat before everyone is ready, you may also be cutting off a teammate from their mount, and forcing them to walk to the end of the dungeon.
But more than anything, it is impolite. Many players, especially those in our guild, enjoy fighting mobs and contributing, and find enjoyment in progressing through a dungeon as a party.
2. When the boss drops an egg or chest, wait for others to apply charms!
Loot Charms are used up by defeating a boss, but if the boss drops an egg or chest, another charm can be applied to get more loot from that too. If you destroy that egg before everyone else has a chance to apply their charms, you are robbing them of their chance at better loot, costume chests, and even a mount. Accidents happen, and that’s OK, but try your best to be mindful of others. When an egg or chest drops, every individual should say “R” or “Ready” to signal when it is ready to be destroyed.
3. Say please and thank you!
Come on guys…I shouldn’t even have to list this. Our admin and high level members, despite what you may think, are not always sitting around with nothing to do, and do not live to serve you. We will do everything we can to help, and will answer any question you have to the best of our abilities, but remember to show some respect and appreciation to those who go out of their way to help you. We often have plenty of things planned for the day when we login, so acting sour when we do not have time to help or are busy is extremely immature. We cannot help every minute that we are online, so be patient, and do not demand or take your guild members for granted.
We love to help, being there to answer questions and aid our guild members is very enjoyable to many of us, so don’t hesitate to ask when you need help or just have a question, 90% of the time we will be able to help right away, just don’t be rude or disrespectful when we can’t!
