Rules of Hopeless Addiction

Guild Rules

1. Under no circumstances are any of the major "isms" allowed. This includes but is not limited to sexism and racism.

2. HA does not tolerate ninjaing, scamming and/or the use of exploits within World of Warcraft.

Failure to comply with either of the above will net you a minimum of 48 hours in "The Brig" (a rank in which you can only read guild chat) and may result in immediate expulsion from the guild.

3. Keep guild chat clean. We have a diverse group of individuals with varied tastes. Excessive swearing is unacceptable. Even if all the members could handle it a lot of us have little eyes that occasionally peak at the screen. Imposing or insulting religious beliefs will not be tolerated. Please keep religion and politics out of the game.

4. Teamspeak guidelines. Verbal abuse and excessive language on TS will not be allowed. Little ears are often listening and HA prefer all members feel comfortable participating on TS. Misuse of TS will result in your account removal. TS is not a right it is a luxury. Treat it as such.

5. Attempts to gouge guild mates with outrageous prices on crafted goods or gear you pick up is not acceptable. Begging is also not tolerated. Begging includes but is not limited to: constant spam of guild chat to power level you, or requesting you be taken through an instance that is not level appropriate, along with the usual begging for mats ect. Whining will not be tolerated and expect to be met with such responses as "Cry more n00b." and "Let me call you the WAAAAmbulance."

6. If you sign up for a guild event you are expected to attend the event and arrive on time. A consistent habit of not doing these two is not acceptable. Please give notice if you cannot attend a run you were expected on. Emergencies do come up and they will certainly be understood but please let the guild know as soon as you can why you didn't make it.

The above offenses will initially get you a warning by an officer or above who will then post that they warned you, when they warned you and about what in the Officer's Forum. Your next offense will result in you being lowered to "The Brig" for 24 hours. Any offense after that will be reviewed by the Council and can result in demotion or your expulsion from the guild.

7. The following system will be used to remove inactive members from the guild (note: to avoid being declared inactive you simply must inform the HC of how long you will be gone and the reason i.e. real life, this server sucks ect...):
-After 2 months of inactivity, your character is demoted to "The Brig".
-After 3 months of Inactivitiy, your character is removed from the guild.
- Exceptions: If you have notified an officer of a planned absence (Military deployments, extended vacations, work in third world countries), you will not be kicked out of the guild. However, all rank will be removed. If you are a guild ofificer, when you return, you will receive your rank back if possible.
Please note: this will not happen if one of your characters is active within the guild do not be worried about being booted because you haven't played your alt lately.

8. All Initiates are not allowed entry or participation in any Perenolde Small Guilde Alliance events, chats, or private SGA forums. Initiates may only access publicly available SGA forums after registering on the SGA website (http://z11.invisionfree.com/Perenolde_Alliance). After full membership is attained (usually 2 weeks), SGA benefits and priviledges shall begin.

9. Treat each other with respect. We all have our own ideas and opinions. It is important that we respect each other's opinions even if we don't agree with them. If you have a serious conflict or disagreement with a member, first try to resolve it through whispers or create a party and take it up with them personally to see if you can come to an understanding. You do not have to agree with them, but it is best to "agree to disagree" on an issue than to harbor ill feelings. If the conflict remains, please contact an officer, high council member, or GM to help mediate the conflict. The important thing is we don't want conflicts spilling over into guild chat. We have all joined this guild to have fun together, not to create or endure drama.

10. When signing-up to use the guild forums, use the name of your main character in the game to post.

We ask our members to present themselves with class and to be professional while going about their endeavors throughout the world, both online and offline.
