This is a mature guild with relatively high average age of its members. We play in Eastern, Central and Mountain Time zones (pretty much all the time). Basic requirements for membership into our guild are: common sense, mature attitude, tolerance, and an ability to liven up the guild chat. The social part of our guild is very important and to help with this we use Ventrillo chat. There are no lang
uage filter requirements; however, if you have kids or fairly conservative family members/roommates, a headset could be a worthwhile investment. We will do our best to watch it if you warn us about language conditions…but slips happen. Everyone will be respectful enough to at least try to rein things in but keep in mind we are a mature guild with mature players. We treat flashpoints and operations seriously and enjoy progressing through the game content. Top 12 Characteristics of a “mature” individual (not necessarily dependent on age):
1. Exhibits patience and calm during warzones, flashpoints, operations, and various missions.
2. Looks at the bright side and learn from mistakes that were made instead of trying to assign blame.
3. Is able to control their temper (be a good winner and loser).
4. Is empathetic and is able to keep the feelings of other players under consideration before taking any actions.
5. Willing to listen to negative feedback in order to become a better player.
6. Has a high sense of self esteem and confidence.
7. Knows that group chat can be a communication barrier as in game text does not fully communicate the emotion or feelings of the other person and does not hesitate to ask for clarification.
8. Willing to ask and answer questions until understanding is achieved.
9. Accepts responsibility for their own actions and mistakes.
10. Knows the difference between confidence and arrogance.
11. Realizes that there are real people behind the characters and treats them as such.
12. Play by the rules - There is no exception to this; we don't tolerate the use of glitches/exploits, botting, hacks or any other third party tools which are against the TOR Terms of Service. Bottom line…Have fun!!**
After all, that's the reason we're all playing. Be friendly and civil - No whining or harassing people. Disputes with other players should be resolved in private. Treat people how you want to be treated. Be helpful - Lend a helping hand wherever possible and be supportive of guild members. Helping them out can mean doing a class mission, or teaching them something about their class. Donations of items and credits to the Guild Bank are also greatly appreciated and are a very big help for the guild as a whole. Don't tarnish the image of the guild - Every moment you are online you are representing . We hold our name with pride. Actions that tarnish our reputation will not be tolerated.
**The purpose of playing this game is for fun. If you aren't having it, you aren't playing it right. We're not here to tell you what to do with your game time, but if someone is a hindrance to someone else in game, action will be taken.
