We would like you to be active. It's not that hard just to pop in every once in a while to say hi or check on your friends. Seriously, just log in and do something. Now that we can see when each member last logged in, if you are going to be away for a long time due to something that may or may not have come up, let us know. We have no idea where you'll be so we'll assume you've left SK for good and you'll most likely be removed.

There is a probation period for reinstatements for a determined amount of time. Currently it is a month. This will be shown by staying at the recruit level until the probation period has ended. During probation, you will be watched closely. Any misconduct will be acted upon promptly. Violations resulting being kicked again will result in you being banned. At such point, you will not be allowed to return.

(From Sirthomasrb's viewpoint) I have been in this guild ever since I started playing SK I first joined spiral knights around the fall of 2011, when my cousin Yakunan introduced me to the game. I was immediately made Guildmaster because of our family relation, and the guild wasn't much developed back then but still had a wide member base, was T2 Dominant and somewhere around December, we started getting into T3 more, and began to develop more rapidly, people left and new people joined, and since February, the current members I have are a delight and are highly appreciated, and I am proud to have them in my guild.

The only way to acquire Guild Master status is to receive an explicit offer from Latisan or Lord Hood. Feel free to ask (if you're a Veteran or higher), but if you haven't gotten an offer, it probably won't be happening.

Rules & Regulations

We are a community guild and want to treat all of our members with respect. The same rules for our videos and podcasts apply to our guild and guild chat as well. Multiple or blatant offenses may result in removal from the guild without notice. Some good guidelines to adhere to are:

  • Have a good attitude.
  • Show respect to all members.
  • Do not swear (hard to get by in-game) or pseudo-swear (easy to get by in-game).
  • Try to be helpful to other members when you can.
  • No illegal activities will be tolerated. (i.e. scamming)
  • If someone is annoying you, just tell them, preferably in a private message. Don't forget that you can "Ignore".
  • Don't demand things like promotions, crystal energy, or crowns. We all try to be generous, but we have to care for our own banks as well as yours.

If you're going into hang in the guild, we would ask that you stay somewhat active. It's not that hard to pop in and say hi from time to time, and if you're part of our Spiral Knights community, it shouldn't be terribly difficult anyway.

WE REMOVE PLAYERS AFTER APPROXIMATELY 1-2 MONTHS OF INACTIVITY. (If you come back, simply PM Latisan, Lord Hood, or another GM and we will gladly invite you back into the guild and restore you rank initially. This is not to be confused with being kicked for misconduct.)

Kicking and Reinstatement

Our hope is to never have to do this to anyone, but there have and probably will be those who cannot follow the rules. This does not fully apply to those kicked for inactivity. Only those who are kicked for misconduct.

We really hate bans - we think they're no fun. If you are kicked from the guild by an Officer without explicit reason, contact Latisan or Lord Hood with the name of the person who banned you and what you think might have been the cause for the ban (no need to be TOO specific, but we need to know when talking to that Officer).

If you were banned by an Officer with good reason or banned by Latisan or Lord Hood themselves, you probably won't be making it back in. We take bans seriously and try to give grace before administering them. If you still cannot adhere to the rules and are removed, you don't have much hope of getting back in. Sorry!

Events

We're a rather small guild, so events don't happen too often. If we're planning a guild event in-game, it will be announced on our Steam page and Twitter.

Events may include:

  • Meeting up and hanging out
  • Farming for crowns or event tokens
  • Raffles or giveaways
  • Goofy events (fashion shows, quizzes)

Associations

The Sklay Elite guild is currently associated with the following guilds.
  • The Arsenal Podcast - This is the secondary guild officiated by Latisan Sklay. We use it for community PvP battles and other alternate needs.
