Guild Rules

Welcome to Royal Templars Draenor EU

Members Rights

As a member you are entitled to the full benefits of the guild. This includes, but is not limited to: participation in guild events, the use of our message boards and website, the use of guild chat in-game, the use of our Ventrilo server for you and your friends for WoW and other activities. You have the right to speak freely about your concerns and ideas on the forums, on Ventrilo (some restrictions apply here, see below) and in-game. You have the right to information from the officers/assists and guild leader. They are obliged to answer all of your questions truthfully. You have the right to request assistance from guild mates in your adventures. You are at the same time strongly encouraged to help your guild mates when needed, but not required to be at everyone’s beck and call. You are entitled to be treated fairly, equally and with respect at all times. You are bound to treat others in the guild in the same manner. You have the right to request a change in guild policy, rules or anything else related to the guild. To do so, you need to post a poll on the private forum. If at least 30% of the members votes, and 70% or more is in favour, the requested change is accepted. The poll closes in 5 days.

Behaviour

As a member of ROYAL TEMPLARS you will be kind and courteous to all players in the game. You will not kill steal, intentionally train, spam, insult, flame or bad mouth players, GMs or chat channels, or do anything that reflects negatively upon the reputation of the guild or its members. Discrimination or slander based on race, gender, religion, sexual preference or anything that is not accepted in real life, will not be tolerated. Punishment will be swift and severe. You will not harass, beg or complain to get people for your group, about being power levelled, teleported, resurrected, given loot, get enchants or items crafted. These things are not your rights, but your privileges. If a member or the guild decides to help you in this way, that is that member’s decision. You cannot demand it from your guild mates.

Guild chat may at times get rude and you are asked to have a thick skin and not to take offense at things that are meant as a joke. However, cruel comments and harassment of any kind to another player will not be tolerated. This will be punishable by either a warning or removal from the guild.

If you have any issues with other members of the guild, or other players, you will discuss those problems with the other person first. Do not bring issues to the officers unless you absolutely require mediation. We are all adults here and it is the belief of this guild that we can handle our own disagreements.

If an issue arises that cannot be resolved, you will act in a dignified manner and allow the leadership of the guild to hand out any reprimands if required.

Most importantly the guild is designed to enhance the enjoyment of the game for you and everyone that plays it. Do not cause undue stress or be disruptive within the guild for your own pleasure. Do not ruin the playtime of others.

Leadership

The guild has a Guild Master, currently Silkman (until Goatdude’s triumphant return). He has complete authority, but is required to listen to every officer before making important decisions. The officers have the role of adviser to the guild master, and to help out in daily tasks.

The tasks of the guild master and officers include (but is not limited to):

  • Recruitment
  • Organizing PvE and PvP raids
  • Leading 10 man and 25 man PvE raids
  • Distributing loot
  • Moderating the forum and Discord/TeamSpeak
  • Communication between members and guild masters
  • Mediation in case of a dispute between members

Raiding

Our usual raid schedule is as follows: Sunday/Thursday 19:30pm/24:00pm. This depends on the amount of raid content available. In game raids are open for invites at around 19:00. The GMOTD will reflect this and specify the name of an officer that is currently the raid leader.

You are expected to join at least 80% of the raids. If you are unable to join the raid for a longer period, please notify the leadership beforehand. If you do not, you risk getting demoted to social, or removed from the guild.

To improve raid efficiency, the leadership may remove and invite guild members of any rank to the raid at any time.
