Official Guild Rules/Guidelines


1.) The Black Tower has a strong reputation for being a honorable and helpful guild, so your character's actions must be above reproach at all times. Any instances where your actions are less then honorable will be investigated by an Officer of the Guild and may result in a warning or outright guild removal.

2.) Participation in guild raids is "strongly encouraged". However, at this time it is not mandatory to attend every raid that occurs when you are online. Additionally, guild members must attend a minimum of 2 raids per month. Please try to make it to as many raids as you can as they are for you and the guilds progression deeper into the game.

3.)
Black Tower has always stood for the highest standards of unselfishness, honor, and fairness. Any reports of problems with regards to looting (more then your share, something that wasn't rightfully yours (ninja) etc.) will be investigated by an Officer of the Guild and corrective action to include warnings or dismissal from the guild will occur.

4.) Non-Dkp Raids will occur and can be lead by anyone in the guild on non-raid (XP) nights. If you are leading a "Guild Raid" please state in advance what style of looting you will use. Whatever style is used must be fair and in keeping with ideals put forth by The Black Tower (honor, fairness, unselfishness, and need before greed). If you are raiding a zone that requires attendees to be a specific Level Minimum, please ensure this information is relayed in advance. This will eliminate people showing up that can’t go.

5.) Any person who has attained full membership and departed for any reason shall be required to follow all the guidelines posted in the “Guild Recruitment Hall” including any new level/AA requirements and make a post requesting to join us and to include the reason you left. You may only leave BT once before said departure will become permanent and require a full officer vote to get back in.

7.) While we encourage role-playing, we do not allow the use of the /anon function of EQ. You may use the /Role function to hide your class/level but you must never use the /Anon function. This way all that come in contact with you can see that you are a member of this guild. It is my personal belief that if you are using Anonymous to hide your guild tag, you are probably doing something we wouldn’t approve of, so don’t do it.

8.) Grouping with guild-mates is highly encouraged, as well as grouping with other guilds and un-guilded persons. This serves to promote the guild and helps build relations with other guilds that may be beneficial to members of the involved guilds and the Tunare Server as a whole.

 

9.) It is our desire that you attempt to get your “Main Character” to level 75 in the shortest amount of time you can, without sacrificing the fun of the game. Officers stand ready to assist you with questions of where to hunt to maximize this endeavor. The more Level 75 Main Characters we have, the better prepared we are to tackle tougher encounters and zones in the game. This in-turn has the effect of allowing for the growth of the guild in that you become better equipped and prepared for all that lies ahead.
