Our Purpose: To tackle and triumph over end-game raiding content while providing a fun and friendly environment.

Guild Code of Conduct:

1. Support the guild and your guild mates. A guild is like a family, and as such, you should treat each member with the same respect you wish to receive yourself.
2. Teasing and light-hearted jokes are normal, but if a fellow guild mate asks you to stop, do so. On the flip side, develop thicker skin. Teasing is a part of life, and while the officers will keep it from going overboard, not every joke is reason to take offence.
3. Insults and blatantly offensive comments will not be tolerated, whether or not you think the person deserves it.
4. Do not complain about someone or their play style. Suggest how they can improve. Failure on their part to heed such suggestions is not grounds for you to then hassle them about it. If it is something that impedes the guild's progress, talk to an officer, if not, let them play the game.
5. Take care of disagreements in a civilized fashion. Disagreements are a part of life, but arguments and fights should not be. If you have a problem with a fellow guildie, approach them about it, and attempt to work it out. If an agreement can not be met, or you simply don't feel comfortable bringing it up with the other person, talk to an officer. They're here to help.
6. Make an effort to keep your language polite on the forums, in guild chat, or in vent. Excessive crude comments are grounds for demotion and/or removal from a raid or the guild.
7. Registration on the guild forum is required for all members and initiates, and you must check the forum at least once a week. Information will be posted that can not be properly conveyed in game, such as raid schedule and signups, and our guild charter and rules. It is your job to keep up with what is going on in the guild.
8. Conduct yourself outside the guild in a way that will reflect well on our guild. Do not ninja loot or kills. Do not be rude and offensive to anyone (even if they're horde, that's what /chicken is for), and do not spam any in-game channels.
9. Make sure you want to be here. No one is forcing you to be in this guild.
10. Think before leaving the guild. If you gquit we are not inviting you back - look for another guild or apply through our website again.

Raiding Rules

Raids begin at 7 pm server time, and go until 10 pm server time. Invites go out at 6:30 server time, and you are considered absent if you are not online, ready to accept the invite at this time. We raid 25 man content Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

You must be at the raid instance before 7 pm server time with full durability, and all potions, elixirs, flasks, reagents, buffing food, bandages, and any special gear, outside your normal set that may be needed.

In order to raid you must have downloaded, installed, and configured Ventrilo, Deadly Boss Mods, Decursive (if applicable), and Omen.

You must be raid specced for all raids. Remember that we are a team, and as such if you are asked to fill a role, that is where we need you.

You must pay attention to the raid leader at all times. Save questions and clarification until after he/she has finished giving instructions.

Before leaving the raid or going AFK, you must let one of the officers know. We rely on you being there to do your job. If you are not, it hinders the progression of the entire raid.

Damage meters are a perfectly acceptable mod to have to gauge yourself against previous weeks and others, however, reporting data to the raid or guild chat during the raid is not tolerated.

Raid Roster
The raiding roster (rr) is an opt-in list of raiders who are dedicated to showing up to raids, and who are expected to show up to said raids, barring an in-advance excuse and emergency. If you cannot make it to your scheduled raids you must post, in advance, the date(s) and reason in the AFK forum.

There is a separate rr for each day of progression, such that if you can only make Fridays with any consistency, you would be on that rr, and get preference on that day. (But would be expected to show up as close to 100% attendance as possible.) The raiding roster will be posted in the member forums and you can contact any officer to have your name put on the roster.

Raid Roster Rules

1. Missing a raiding day (if you are on the RR for that day) and not posting will give you a strike (you can post after just explain why in your post). 2 strikes and you're off the roster for that day.

2. If you get off the roster we will recruit to fill that slot. You shouldn't leave the guild hanging just because you might sometimes feel like raiding.

3. There will be an attendance MINIMUM. If you don't have 70% raid attendance you are not a raider anymore. Excused or not, people missing raids makes it harder to fill raids.

4. Showing up late and missing raid invites counts as an absence. Showing up late and not posting counts as a strike. Showing up on-time means being there at 6:30 server time. To not be too picky, there is a five minute grace period.

DKP
DKP is a loot system that is setup to be fair to everyone. It is a system that ensures that people who work hard will get the loot they want. Everyone in the raid earns the same amount of DKP.

DKP in Raids

A link to the DKP list can be found at the top of the page and it is updated as often as possible.

DKP will be awarded for showing up on time to raids, helping us progress, killing new bosses, and having fun.

Spending DKP
When loot drops in a raid instance it is handled as follows:

• If the item is Bind on Equip (BOE) then everyone in the raid is to choose "greed" on the item, and continue.
• If the item if Bind on Pickup (BOP) then everyone in the raid is to pass on the item, and an officer will then take bids as described below.

The officer will announce that they are, "taking bids on X" where X is the name of the item. Everyone who wants that item can send the officer a whisper with the amount of DKP they want to spend. This is a silent auction and you are only allowed to bid once. The 2nd highest bid + 1 DKP will be deducted from the winning bidder, and they will receive the item.

• There is a minimum bid of 1 dkp on all items. If there is only one bid on an item, this number is considered the 2nd highest bid.
• Bidding priority is given to Raiders. If all such people pass on an item, then bids from other guild members and Initiate will be considered.
• If you are a member/initiate please bid on items that you want and include "initiate" in your bid. Example: "2 DKP initiate".
• You *can not* go into debt when bidding on an item. i.e., you can not bid more DKP than you have.
• Any item that does not find a new owner will be disenchanted, and the raid leader will roll 1-10 or 1-25 in order to assign the shard(s).
• If more than one person bids the same amount of DKP: The person with the highest total DKP will win the item for the amount they bid.
• Also, we will never shard an item if someone in the raid needs it. The details of this situation will be decided by the raid leader when and if it occurs.

DKP Reset Rules

1. If for any reason (performance, attendance, strikes etc.) you are removed from the raid roster your DKP will be reset to ZERO. If you remove yourself from the roster your DKP will be saved; however getting back on the raid roster will take officer approval.

2. If you leave the guild (i.e /gquit) or you are kicked by an officer your DKP will be reset to ZERO. Even if you leave for two seconds this rule is in place. Think twice before typing /gquit and don't make decisions in emo states. Leaving the guild as a joke or kicking someone as a joke (this is for the officers) is not funny and will not be tolerated. Remember you do NOT get a confirmation box now when you type /gquit so no excuse there.

Trash Loot Rules

1. Crafting items such as Hearts of Darkness and Sunmotes as well as epic items must be passed on.
2. Epic gems can be greeded. You are allowed to win ONE during a raid. After you win one please pass.
