Excessum Recriutment Rules

Welcome and thank you for considering to join Excessum! We are a quality guild and require high standards from all of our members. Therefore we have a strict recruiting policy in order to create a first barrier our new potential members will have to overcome. Before applying, please read this post carefully, because it might just be the difference between getting accepted or getting rejected.

>>> 1. Before applying, please first consider if you can identify yourself with the following <<<

- You behave in a mature and respectful manner. Not just to your guild members, but also to non-guild members.
- You are pro-active, eager to participate on the forums and in voice chat and eager to discuss game mechanics.
- You are a teamplayer, placing the needs and goals of the guild before your own.
- You do not easily get frustrated. We do not want our guild members to start crying if they get ganked 10 times in a row or if we wipe 10 times in a row on a raid boss.
- You are reliable. Coming half an hour late for a raid, because your mother planned dinner at the time we planned to start the raid is not a good reason.
- You have at least some interest in both the PvE and PvP aspects of the game.


If you just read these traits and feel there is 1 or more with which you cannot identify yourself, please reconsider applying to this guild. It might save us both a lot of time.

*** Excessum - Goals***

- Excessum will be located preferably on a PvP Server with a core of skillful and mature members.
- Excessum will raid PvE instances at least 3 nights a week
- Excessum will aim to be in the top 3 on the server to complete end game instances.
- Excessum will provide a friendly, mature atmosphere and have fun together.

*** Excessum - Rules ***

1. Ventrillo – A working computer microphone and a copy of Ventrillo are mandatory for all Excessum members in game.

2. Recruitment – All new members are in a 2 week trial period, during this period councillors will decide if the recruit is of Excessum standards

4. Disruptive Behavior – An excessive amount of complaining, non-constructive criticism, arguing within the guild, etc., will result in removal from the guild. This does not mean that members can never complain, criticize or argue. The keyword here is "excessive", meaning that it reaches the point where it affects guild cohesiveness. Any guild member that engages in excessively disruptive behaviour will receive a cautionary warning first, and if that behaviour continues, they will be booted from the guild.

5. Quality Players – Excessum has a standard of quality play that we intend to maintain. If any guild member is found to be extremely lacking in their skills, they may be voted on by the Council for removal from the guild. The important phrase here is "extremely lacking."

6. No Cliques – We will not allow special cliques to form within the guild. Everyone in the guild should get to know all of the other guild members, and be equally helpful to all of them. For balanced grouping purposes, the Council may have to adjust groups so that all guild members get a fair group when they play.

7. No Idiotic Public Posts – If you want to act like a fool, we have private boards for you to do that. Don't post on public forums about the guild, how bad ass you are, or how we were foolish enough to add you.

8. Respect Your Guild Members – You are required to treat other members of the guild with respect. How you actually feel about them is not relevant, but your behavior is. Feel free to interact with anyone outside of the guild however you like, as long as it doesn't violate any of the guild rules

9. Forums All members are required to read Excessum Forums on a regular basis - the forums are the main area for information within the legion and therefore not keeping up to date with the forums means that you are uninformed!
