As I see this guild grow, I am also seeing our camaraderie strengthen. That is exactly what I want for this guild. Guild help should be an 'I'll scratch your back and you scratch mine' kind of deal. There's nothing wrong with being polite and remember a "thank you" goes a long way. I am really proud of everyone and the direction the guild is headed.
As the guild grows we will be seeing a lot of new faces. So if you would, when you are online and see someone new has joined the guild just say "hi" to them or help them feel welcome in some way. It just helps take the "now what" feeling out of joining a guild.
Rooks you have leading roles in this guild. I really need you to get to know each other and communicate. For those of you who do not know, rooks & bishops can communicate on a private guild channel called officer chat. Just press "/o" to chat on the officer channel. Also, I know we do not have enough ppl for a decent raid, but we need to practice. So, Rooks talk among yourselves and find a low lvl dungeon for everyone to pratice on. Once you guys have come up with a date email me ([email protected]) or Ralia ([email protected]) with the time, date, meeting location and dungeon lvl and I will post it on the MOTD spot on the guild tab. Remember to give everyone at least 3 days to prepare, but feel free to make small party dungeon raids whenever you see fit.
FEED BACK!!! I need feed back. Let me know how your experience in the guild is going. If you want me to plan any special days let me know.
Remember if you want the guild to have a tabard I need your donations. Copper and silver are fine (it all adds up). The cost to make one is 10g. I do not have a treasurer assigned yet so until then you can send donations to me and as soon as I assign a treasurer I will transfer the money to them. The thing is I am looking for someone to trust with guild money. I am debating on whether or not to make a guild member treasurer or just making our own NPC to handle it. Another way to donate to the guild is by sending those grey items that you dont get a lot of money for and just take up room in your bag. Just mail them and money gained by selling them will go to the guild.
*NOTE* It does not cost to be in the guild. So donations are voluntary. (even though I would like everyone to contribute to us getting a tabard.)
Once we start getting donations I will be posting how much guild money we have.
Guild Money 0/10g as of 1/24/07 (hey at least we're not in debt..lol)
