Herein is written the Charter
for Guardians of Castle Anthrax, a Dark Age of Camelot guild.
This is not a complete listing, as we intend to adjust our Guild
Structure as necessary throughout this guild’s
existence.
If you are
familiar with the cinematic satire of Monty Python’s Quest for the
Holy Grail, then the name of our guild should give you a hint as to
our nature. GoCA is a guild that believes in bringing levity,
benevolence and support to the arduous pursuits of players.
The structure of GoCA is set up to be more for the efficiency of
assistance than for any trumped up power playing. Each
member’s views are taken with equal respect in our open forum
meetings. We are a collection of individuals not of character
levels and realm points. The 3 Scrolls & 2 Codes further
expound upon these ideals...
Herein is written Part
One of the Rules & Regulations for Guardians of Castle
Anthrax, a Dark Age of Camelot guild. This is not a
complete listing, as we intend to adjust our Guild Structure
as necessary throughout this guild’s
existence.
1.) Have
Fun!
2.) Members must read and abide by all
points in each of the six (6) Documents of the Rules &
Regulations, and the Doctrines outlined in The 3 Scrolls, the
Charter, and the 2 Codes, with the understanding that any
Duties to this Guild in no way take precedence over the
obligations of Real Life.
3.) Members are free to
leave the Guild up to three (3) times if they so choose;
however, upon quitting for the third time, you shall not be
readmitted to the Guild.
4.) Official Guild Meetings are designed to be
Open Forums. We encourage the free sharing of ideas and
opinions, and will not tolerate heckling, et
cetera.
5.) Promotions shall now be made on an
as-needed basis by Guild Officers with as much pomp &
ceremony as we can stomach… ;)
6.) There is
to be no begging or asking of monies from any player at any
time.
Herein is written
Part Two of the Rules & Regulations for Guardians of
Castle Anthrax, a Dark Age of Camelot guild. This is not
a complete listing, as we intend to adjust our Guild
Structure as necessary throughout this guild’s
existence.
1.) Most important of
a Guardian’s Duties is to report all transgressions by
another Member of the Rules set out in the 3 Scrolls
& 2 Codes. This is needed to ensure the Guild
enjoys a structured environment, which is believed by a
majority of the Officers to be the most productive
type. If a Member is found to be in violation of
any of said Rules, the case(s) will be discussed by the
Officers and Disciplinary Action may have to be
taken…
2.) Members have an obligation to
assist new and prospective Members with questions about
the Guild up to a point – we don’t want to give away our
Secret Handshake to Outsiders, now do we? ;) Also,
all Guardians must help those persons new to the Game
with questions only; no need to give them your life’s
savings.
Herein is
written Part Three of the Rules & Regulations
for Guardians of Castle Anthrax, a Dark Age of
Camelot guild. This is not a complete listing, as
we intend to adjust our Guild Structure as
necessary throughout this guild’s
existence.
Herein is
written the Actions to be taken once a Member is
found to be in violation of any one of the
Transgressions listed on the Scroll of
Condemnation. One starts at the first step,
and to progress to the next requires that one has
committed another Offense, and the subsequent
Discussion has
occurred.
1.) Member
receives a Warning, stating the case against
him/her.
2.) Member is put on
Probation – he/she cannot participate in any
Official Guild Function save for
Meetings…
3.) Member is Demoted one
(1) Rank/Division…
4.) Member shall
be Warned again…
5.) Continued
Demotions will occur until Member is Rank
9…
6.) Once a Repeat Offender has
reached this level of Humility, he/she shall be
Removed from the Guild upon his/her next
Transgression…
We do so hope that these sad
events never occur, but alas, when trying to
create a thriving, hearty tree, one must prune the
sickly branches before they infect the rest of the
plant.
The only
thing that can make or break ones experience in
the game is how we treat other players and are
treated in return. We are not alone in
playing this game, the ramifications of which
are the double-edged sword of support and
conflict. This Code of Conduct is
designed to keep conflict to a minimum.
Remember, you are a representative of GoCA,
please act
accordingly.
1.) While a
Member of this Guild, there is to be zero (0)
defamation of this Guild or any of its Members
to those persons not in the Guild – let’s keep
our fights “in-family”.
2.) “Kill
Stealing” is a horribly antisocial action that
angers all and is just plain rude. Do not do
it.
3.) Do not leave loot lying
about, unless of course, your backpack is
utterly spilling over with stuff to
sell/keep… Let's do all we can to keep
Albion clean and free of “highway refuse”.
If you do not want something destroy it, do not
leave it on the ground to confuse newbies and
ruin screenshots. ;)
4.) On "camp
crashing" or "camp stealing" -- this is a
much-debated issue in DAoC. An easy way to
diffuse any misunderstanding or hostility is to
simply speak to the people at the camped
site. If you need to interrupt them to
complete a kill task: let them know.
If you want to join in: ask. Work
out a system with them. It is easy for two
groups to work a campsite. One can kill
while the other regains power or
endurance. All that is needed is some
communication. Blatant and aggressive
wiping out of a camped site is not
tolerated.
5.) Treat Clerics,
Friars and all healers with respect. The
job of a healer is a difficult and oft times a
thankless one. Remember that no healer HAS
to rez you and yelling at him or her will surely
not get you on your feet.
6.)
Verbal abuse is not abided. There is no
reason for anyone to put someone else
down. We are all trying our best in the
game and some have more experience than others
or better computers or faster Internet
connections. Instead of blowing your top
at a “n00b” trying asking if they need help or
offer advice. Even if someone has wronged
you there is no excuse for verbal
battery.
7.) Each of us must strive
to be courteous to other Players of the
Game… If you have disputes, attempt to
settle them in a Civil Manner – if this is not
possible, and you feel you have been wronged by
a member of another Guild, please contact an
Officer with the full details of the incident
and we shall attempt to rectify any bad
mojo. If it is serious enough, please, go
over Our heads and contact Mythic Entertainment
directly.
8.) There is to be no
overly hostile and/or prolonged retaliation
directed towards other Players while in-game –
they can find out who you are (don’t even try
/anon… they’ll just check the Herald), and this
does not reflect well on the Guild. The
Officers cannot and will not accept this, we who
are trying hard to have this Guild become more
accepted by the Gawaine/Albion community.
Retaliation or revenge is not an acceptable
manner of handling disputes. If someone
crashes your camp, kill stealing is not the way
to settle the matter. Remember that such
actions will not produce a resolution and will
only ruin any case you might have against the
original offender.
