 Guild Rules & Policies


2. Capitol Offences

Section: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5


2.1 Begging
 Don't ask strangers for free goods, services or money. It is annoying, uncool, and it tarnishes the Guild as a whole. It may be acceptable to ask another member to lend you some money if you have become good friends with them, however if they say "no", they mean "no", do not harass them, abuse them, or make them feel guilty about it.

2.2 Gold Buying
 This is frowned upon and discouraged within the Guild as it is not in the spirit of the game. Although we do not want to change your enjoyment of the game, please do not buy gold, advertise this facility, or encourage others either within or outside of the guild to do so. Otherwise you may be excluded from the guild and forced to spend an eternity our basement with the Bhco Gimp! In extreme circumstances we may even report you to blizzard.

2.3 Ninja Looting
 There will never, ever be any excuse for this that won't get you immediately booted from the guild. It doesn't matter if the party you are in is full of Ninja looting noobs who took all your stuff and killed your pet wolf. "Bloodhounds do not Ninja!"
I will explain what Ninja looting is so that there is absolutely no confusion, saying you didn't know will not be an excuse, so understand this well. Ninja looting is taking or attempting to take things that you are not entitled to receive...

    • Looting a chest without rolling with your party to determine who should get it's contents.
      - Always wait until all threats are resolved before rolling. Never loot during a battle, it's bad form.
      - Make sure it is unambiguous what you are rolling for, don't ever roll for no reason or when you see a chest or item. Be clear why you are rolling and what it's for.
      - If you are going to pass on an item or chest, say so. Make it clear that you are passing. - Do not manipulate the roll, /random 100-100 is not funny, it's not cool, and it's not mature. Don't waste peoples time with fake rolls.
    • Looting a chest that another person or group has spent the time and effort to clear.
      - There is nothing less cool than killing off a ton of mobs to have some jerk run up and take the chest you just fought for.
      - If there is someone else in near proximity who may be attempting to retrieve the chest, negotiate via rolling or whatever means to determine ownership of the chest.
    • Rolling on an item that you were not entitled to.
      - Understand the difference between “Bind on Equip” and “Bind on Pickup”, if you loot a BoP item that you can't use and someone in the party can, you can expect to be charged with Ninja looting.
      - It is your responsibility to know the looting rules before you are in a situation that requires them.
      - Roll need on item's that you can actually use. You should only ever roll "need" on items that you can either equip, or use for a trade skill immediately. For instance, if a plate item is dropped and you can only wear cloth, you DO NOT "Need" this item.
    • Changing looting mode or rules without consensus of the party.
      - If you are leading a Party you should never change the looting rules without prior agreement and consensus.
    • Looting another class specific item or armour set piece that you are not entitled to.
      - Class specific items always go to that class if present in the group and needed. You may only roll if that class is not present or does not require the item.
      For example:
      NOT OKAY> You are a priest doing a Strat undead Baron run, the dreadmist pants drop, there is a warlock in your group who needs these and you roll need on them, you are ninja looting.
      or
      OKAY> You are a priest doing a Strat undead Baron run, the dreadmist pants drop, either you don't have a warlock or the warlock doesn't need them, you roll need on them, you are NOT ninja looting.
      Therefore, you can roll on any armor that u need ONLY if the "specified" class does not want it.
      Study this link carefully and make sure you know what set you are entitled to.... Class Armour Sets
2.4 Antisocial Behaviour
 Don't take advantage of new/inexperienced or low level members. Don't overcharge for things, lie, or attempt auction house scams. Anything that reflects badly on the guild will not be tolerated, you are our ambassadors and as such should act responsibly at all times. We appreciate players of all ages here and you will be not be judged by your age, but your maturity, so be cool and respect people who may ask you to tone things down.
