rules

1). Be cool or get out. What this means is that, we, the Sages of Shadow, are a tight-knit family oriented type of guild. there is no "me first" in this guild. We all do things to help each other out. We are not a guildloot, PL'ing, etc. We are here to enjoy the game of everquest and enjoy each others company, This is our biggest rule, and our most basic.

2). NO begging for powerleveling, items, or money either through Guild Chat, OOC, or shout. It looks bad on the guild when people are spamming about this. Again. it goes along with rule one. NOW...if you need a certain item and are capable of killing the mob in question, all you have to do is ask, and members of the guild will be more than happy to HELP you achieve this item. We do not do handouts. Powerleveling is a personal issue. Do not beg to be PL'ed. If someone offers to PL you, you may choose to accept it, but do not ASK for it. Begging is very lame, and tiring situation for us long time members to hear about, and will not be tolerated.

3). Follow the PnP. . The Sages of Shadow follow the play nice policies set forth by Verant. these include the following:    a). No kill stealing of others kills. (accidents happen, but flagrant KS'ing is a no-no).
   b). NO spamming or flaming on any of the chat lines (guild, ooc, shout, auction, ect). This looks bad on the guild when done in ooc and shout, and is very annoying in guild chat.
   c). Do not take another groups camp. If a group gets wiped out, use your judgment (I tend to allow about 10 minutes to move back in, after that its open).
   d). Harassment, Abusive Language, Training, Stealing. Picking Fights. These all are against the PnP, and will not be tolerated. Some offences, depending on severity and/or frequency will result in immediate dismissal.

4). No criticizing of fellow guild members through guild chat. Not a big issue, but if you have a problem with a fellow guild member, take it to tells. If the situation arises and it needs to go to the next step, take it to an officer. If still a problem, talk to ryzak, gerrik, or krullan.

Offense steps:

1st offense: Warning by an officer
2nd offense: probationary period. the length depends on the severity of the situation
3rd offense: You are out of the guild
Step 1 and 2 may be skipped depending on severity of the infraction. step 1 WILL be skipped for not following the PnP.

Kill stealing:

Kill stealing will not be tolerated at all. Any member accused of KS'ing will immediately be investigated by an officer. If the report is true, the member will be immediatly removed by an officer. This is a zero tolerance rule. WE do know accidents happen, but flagrant disregard for this rule is unacceptable

These rules are expected to be followed by all members. They are very easy to follow, and actually all lead back to #1. Ignorance is not accepted. Being a member of the guild, you are expected to know the rules.
