Awakening of Chaos

All information available at http://www.aoc-swc.com

Basic Information
Horde PvE/PvP Guild

Our aim is to be one of the biggest, well recognised and respected guilds on Steamwheedle Cartel. We will achieve this by conducting ourselves as mature, civilised and accepting people. The kind of people that will be drawn to our guild is fun loving, easy going, kind and friendly but fierce when need be characters. We will be known among people as Awakening of Chaos and will be feared when entering the battlegrounds. People will know to step their game up when they see Awakening of Chaos coming.

The Guild takes priority!

Awakening of Chaos members will always look to the guild for groups before they do outside giving other a chance to do the same quests, gain xp etc. The guild comes first all the time, only after Awakening of Chaos have been taken care of can we assist outsiders.

If you help the guild grow, the guild will help you grow. There is no "i" in Awakening of Chaos nor in "We" and "We" are "Chaos".

Recruiting: See the Recruitment status in our forums.

We take these rules very seriously and hope that you will as well. If you see anyone breaking these rules, please notify one of the moderators.

2. Bad mouthing ANY member or the guild itself in guild chat, on the forums, or by whisper is forbidden.


 * If you have a complaint, take it first to that player and if you feel it is serious enough, take it to the leadership. Part of the responsibility of the leadership is to help resolve issues and disagreements, however always try to solve things with the offending person first.

Leaving the Guild

If you wish to leave Awakening of Chaos, you are expected to talk to an officer so that we understand why you feel that you may need to leave. Anyone leaving the guild without talking to an officer will NOT be invited back. If you left the guild in good standing, you may reapply at any time.

If we all follow these rules, we will all enjoy our time here together. There is no excuse for not following the rules, therefore, we will not hesitate to take action against those who do not take the rules seriously and make the experience for others here a miserable one. If you do not agree to these rules, please do not post here and if you are a guild member, I would ask that you leave as these rules not only apply to the forum, they are to be followed in-game as well.

Guild Code of Conduct
Loyalty

You must be loyal to Awakening of Chaos in every aspect of your gaming experience. You must ALWAYS put the Chaos ahead of outsiders no matter who the outsider may be. If you know the outsider in real life, ask them to join us, they will bypass the initial recruitment stage and go straight onto probation. If someone is putting the guild or members of the guild down, stand up as a proud Chaos and defend our honour.

Respect

Respect is something Awakening of Chaos take seriously, our members will show respect to other Chaos at all times especially to their higher ranking officers. The officers holding second rank have the same power as the GM, so treat them with respect and dont give them reason to boot you. They do not need concent to boot someone and can do so at their own discresion so you might want to get to know them and be aware of who your higher ranking officers are. Awakening of Chaos will show respect to outsiders as much as they do to their brethren Chaos. Disrespecting an outsider will reflect badly on the guild and therefore you will conduct yourself outside as well as you do within the guild.

Attitude

Awakening of Chaos have awesome attitudes, they strive to be the best they can be and try to do as much as they can themselves and only ask for help from higher levels when they cannot find a group to do the harder quests. They believe they can do anything they put their mind to and are not afraid to put in the hard yards to get a job done.

Honour

Know your role when grouping with outsiders. If you do not know your role, speak to a Class Leader. They are your mentors and there to guide you. Know the looting rules. Everyone has their own looting rules, figure them out BEFORE you begin and make sure you abide by the rules agreed upon. NEVER EVER BE A NINJA!!! We do not like ninjas and will vary rarely give second chances. We do understand that it can sometimes be an honest mistake, so if it happens, speak up and apologise straight away when realising what you have just done. If this does happen, the best way to resolve it is to find out the value of the item/s you just ninjad and give each person in your group what the item would have sold for, or, agree to roll to see who would have won the item and agree to pay that person the worth, the decision is not up to you, the group must agree on it.

Activity

We expect all members to be active within the guild. Those who intend to be away for a long period must notify an officer. If you are away for a long period and do not notify anyone, then you will eventually be booted as we will think you are not that interested in playing anymore. So to avoid being booted, let someone know.

All Awakening of Chaos members MUST join the guild site and participate in any votes or polls that have been posted. If raids have been organised, those who are eligible MUST attend all “mandatory” raids. The only people who do not have to participate are those who have already requested leave of absence before the upcoming raid was posted.

Trust

There are no secrets between the Chaos, if you have done something wrong whether intentional or accidental, you should feel comfortable to tell an officer about the situation. Just as there are rules, there are punishments, and the situation will usually determine the punishment. Use your commonsense and you will likely avoid any unwanted, negative situations.

Assist

If you have nothing better to do, or you are not doing anything at the time, and someone asks you for help, please help him or her. Awakening of Chaos are a family unit and are here to help each other whenever possible. In saying that however, spamming guild chat for assistance will not be tolerated. If someone is free to help, they will notify you.

Leadership

In the event that a class or grade leader is unavailable to acompany you on quests/instances etc, a leader will need to be chosen. It is worth while having a leader so that there is less "hang around" time as the leader will have the final word and once he/she has, you can continue to move forward in your persuit. The leader should be chosen as detailed below:

1. Majority vote 2. Experience 3. Rank
