OPENING STATEMENT style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>: style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Our goal is to
continually foster and maintain a dynamic guild that supports and encourages
all of its members in a variety of play-style preferences. We will embrace all
aspects of AoC, including but not limited to: PvE (raids, group and solo
content), PvP (sieges and mini-games), role play (events as well as optional
'day to day' role play), exploration, crafting, resource gathering, and
trading.

This goal includes participating in our
home server's community in a positive and supportive manner. We are also a fun
loving, family style guild (not to be confused with "family friendly"
guild - we mean family as in brotherhood, not Disney). We strive to be an
active guild that likes to have fun and progress with one another. We accept
all mature players of like mind. We are a constantly growing guild catering to
the needs of our own members first, and the community as a whole. Our
leadership's goal is to maintain that enjoyable and supportive environment
where all of our members' characters will achieve their ultimate potentials.

RECRUITMENT style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>: style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'> Open to mature
minded gamers of any play-style.

PVP style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>: style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Members are not
required to PvP in any certain amount, but keep in mind that we are on a PvP-RP
server. We believe the option for PvP resolutions and challenges are better
than not having that option.

ROLE-PLAYING style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>: style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'> Members are not
required to role-play in any certain amount, but keep in mind that we are on a
PvP-RP server. You will come across RP from time to time. We believe RP
enhances our immersion and enjoyment, though we do not enforce it except at
meetings.

ALT POLICY style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>: style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'> We prefer
members to have one alt and one main. After reaching 80 with one character, you
may invite however many alts you want. Exceptions can be made, but this is our
preference.

INACTIVITY POLICY style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>: style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>None to speak
of, though inactive characters will be removed to make room for recruits if we
run out of room.

COMMUNICATION style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>: style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'> Ventrilo,
forums, and bi-weekly guild meetings which are strongly suggested for
attendance.

WE DO NOT WANT style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>: style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'> Our core
philosophy as a guild has been and always will be “Be excellent to each other.”
If you have to be mean to have fun, we're not the right guild for you.
