• Recruits come/go in a guild. Names and join dates of guildies are in the Guild Record of the Hall, and are put on the wiki when membership status is acquired.

• Draco-Dusk-Raffle
• Draco-Dusk-Vault

To become a recruit, an individual must:

• ---Have read the "Core Rules" and "becoming a recruit" information on this wiki.
• ---Run a mission with an officer or the Guild Master (field test).
• ---Answer a series of questions asked by three people, at least one of whom must be an officer OR gm. Only veterans+ can participate in the interview process. (So two vets and an officer can do the full recruitment procedure, and so on). Question redundancies will occur. These are the good kind of redundancies that track consistency.
• ---Be patient, be understanding, and have a general good vibe.
• ---We prefer the proper use of grammar, and a mature attitude. Most of us in the guild are over 20 years old. You can be younger than this and still join, but be aware adult topics will occur with this group.
• ---We reject many applications, so don't be sad if you don't make it. However, we will recommend another group for you, if we know of one that might better suit you.

To become a member, a recruit must:

• ---Be in the guild at least 14 days.
• ---Show consistently polite, nice behavior. This includes listening skills! People are very variable, so each individual will be monitored for rank-up.
• ---Show some kind of dedication to the guild. This includes: interacting with other guildies, donating crowns to the Treasury, donating furniture to the treasury, not threatening to leave the guild for another, ignoring other guild invites with a laugh, and so on.
• ---Improve something about themselves in some way. This is spiritual, not just an armor upgrade. An officer or the GM will let you know what to work on if you don't choose it yourself.
• ---Special Circumstance: if a person shows extreme interest through incredible deeds and charity, then a rank up will occur earlier than usual.
• ---This rank-up may take some time, as we need to get a very clear idea of your character.
• ---This rank-up is individualized.

To become a Veteran, a member must:

• ---Help an individual of lower in-game rank (they do not have to be in the guild) with a mission they have extreme difficulty with.
• ---The person helped should tell an officer or the Guild Master which guild individual helped them, and if their experience was satisfactory. But this is not required for the rank up, because it is not fair to the helper, who spent energy. However, if a complaint comes in later then there's trouble, but this will probably never happen.
• ---Be of Vanguard rank.
• ---Pass the Draco 101 Test.
• ---Have a Dragon Costume of some sort (any scale or chroma family helm with a body that makes sense) to indicate your love of dragons.
• ---Have either a Shivermist Buster or a Blitz Needle.
• ---Gone above and beyond the normal gamer view on a game, have treated Spiral Knights like a true hobby, and not just a pass-time.
• ---This rank-up is standardized.

Becoming an Officer

• ---Read the Officer Section.

To be in the Shadow Circle, an individual must:

• ---Have completed a Shadow Lair.

To be a Crimson Hammer, an individual must:

• ---Have completed all tiers of Operation Crimson Hammer.
• ---Please note, this is just a title for bragging rights, and is not a necessary thing to achieve as it costs actual money.

To be a Vanaduke Vanquisher, an individual must:

• ---Have defeated Lord Vanaduke in his throne room
• ---Condition: Alone with no deaths. (No mist/CE revivals).
• ---Condition: All slags must spawn for every wave.

To be a Juggernaut, an individual must:

• ---Have reached 45,000 prestige
• ---This title shows a high interest in running a variety of levels.
• ---This title indicates that an individual has a wide variety of offensive and defensive gear to combat almost any situation.
• ---This title is indicative of likely prowess at Danger Missions.

To Become an Elder, an individual must:

• ---Have been a member of the guild for at least one year, consistently. (No leaving/coming back).
• ---Obviously this needs Vet Guild rank by default, and therefore Vanguard game-rank.

Rank Expectations:

~~Every individual of any rank is required to maintain the expectations of their rank and every rank below their own.~~

Guild Master:

• ---Novaster will be the deciding word for guild issues (unless outvoted by at least 3 officers), maintain the raffle and vault accounts, approve all recruits and rank-ups, and try to be available at all times. Only the GM may remove guildies, for three reasons: 1) so dislike is focused on the GM only, 2) so the voting process is followed and biased is minimized, and 3) to limit a threatening atmosphere. Only the GM may make major alterations to the hall, IF there is consensus (see Guild Hall information).

Officers:

• ---Read the Officer section.

Veterans:

• ---seek to improve skill sets. (This includes making a shiver and/or blitz for easy regular vana runs!)

Members:

• ---actively try to help individuals through missions and maintain a positive attitude.

Recruits:

• ---hold polite conversation, patience, decent "active player" status, patience, did we mention patience? Patience.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Specialized Titles---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Devil's Advocate:

• ---Corrider will contribute an opinion for the most sensitive guild issues.

Being a Teacher

• ---Answering any question about the game to the best of your ability, running missions with the primary purpose of teaching combat techniques, offering tips about secret areas and game manipulation, forming gatherings in haven and concocting team strategies. Teacher status will be proposed by any individual of the Penumbra Ring, and decided by the Guild Master, if the individual can answer ten of the Draco 101 Basic Test questions. Being a Teacher is an active role, so be prepared to answer loads of questions!

Each Officer group has a term. There are two groups, Mountain Trinity and River Pair. Members of each group are nominated, and then voted on. Every individual of each group has the same tasks, including the GM.

To be Nominated for Officer:

• Be a Veteran
• Have never left the guild for any reason, or been removed for any reason.
• Have not broken any rules lately (you are not on watch or warning).

Nominating:

• You cannot nominate yourself.
• You cannot nominate active officers (discourages nepotism), IF you are an officer on duty yourself. GM and general population can nominate active officers.
• You cannot nominate someone who is not qualified.
• You can nominate two people.
• Nominations are public, announced in /g if you want to. Mail nominations to every active officer and GM, to help ensure the system isn't rigged.
• Anyone can nominate if they want to (not restricted to rank – recruit opinions are also valued).

Voting:

• When votes occur for the groups, procedure goes as follows:

Voting for group A: “River Pair”:

• Votes are anonymous. Mail votes to every active officer and GM. Anyone can vote, even if you didn't nominate.
• Vote for one person per round. Each round lasts 1 day.
  • Round 1: top 6 are isolated and announced for Round 2.
  • Round 2: top 4 are isolated and announced for Round 3.
  • Round 3: top 2 win for the River Pair. The River Pair will be on duty for one month.
• GM promotes to officer position.

Voting for Group B: “Mountain Trinity:”

• Votes are anonymous. Mail votes to every active officer and GM. Anyone can vote.
• Vote for one person per round. Each round lasts 1 day.
  • Round 1: top 6 are isolated and announced for Round 2.
  • Round 2: top 4 are isolated and announced for Round 3.
  • Round 3: top 3 win for the Mountain Trinity. The Mountain Trinity will be on duty for three months.
• GM promotes to officer position.

Officer Expectations:

• Every individual of each group has the same tasks: including GM:
• Respond promptly to the call of duty.**
• Mandatory Deposit: 1,000 crowns a day into the treasury. ***
• Help individuals with detailed Questions
• Help individuals with levels, especially rank mission completion
• Encourage members to rank up to Veteran
• Encourage people to RTFM before filling /g with repetitive, wiki-answerable Qs.
• Keep yourself updated on SK things and the Facebook feed.
• Follow the rules. Especially the GH ones. Power does not exempt you from law.****
• Rank people up if they qualify (this does not include officers for now).
• Recruit people – using the Interview system.
• Interact with guildies as much as possible, especially those who are not officers.
• Once you’ve been an officer, you’ll always have access to the FB page feed, unless you’re totally removed from the guild, or leave.

Group A – River Pair:

• Like flowing water, those who serve in the River Pair have a shorter term, but a large effect. Water flows, change occurs.

2 people. Group membership is voted on every month. The same two people can win many times in a row, if votes fall that way.

Group B- Mountain Trinity:

• Like the solid earth, those who serve in the Mountain Trinity have a long term, and a lasting effect. The Mountain Trinity has a 3 month term, and unlike the River Pair, has a few more requirements:
  • Been an officer already, in the RP, or at some point in the guild’s past – and done well doing so.
  • Been in the guild for a long time, at least 6 months.
  • Have always maintained order, a believer in the “old ways.” This is mostly fiscal responsibility, preparation of FSC gear, a high prestige score, and so on. The idea is established.

Footnotes:

• Call of Duty: not the game “CoD.” I’ve never played. Anyway, this means you respond promptly, communicate 100%, work things out (like who’s talking to what recruit), even if you’re busy with something else. You’re an officer, and your duty is to do whatever you can to help the guild while in-game, and follow officer expectation guidelines. Even if this means spending a SoL after finishing a conversation or reading a command in /O.

• Mandatory Deposit: This is to discourage power seekers that don’t care about the integrity of the guild. It will also completely take care of upkeep as it is, though we still want to encourage donations from the guild population so fun stuff can be added, not just maintained.

• Other stuff: If any rules are broken, then the GM will demote the officer and nominate the runner-up for that month. The same three people can win many times in a row, if votes fall that way. Officers will be promoted for their term, and demoted to veteran after serving (if they do not win again) by the GM. Once an officer, you will always have access to the FB feed and steam group, even if you're not currently serving.

Core Rules Again

• Be civil, be nice, no begging, and have fun. Mens Rea plays an important role here!

1) Do not beg. Begging is asking for anything of anyone in the guild, except mission help. Do not ask for loans (or "to borrow" or any synonyms), there are plenty of scammers out there, asking for loans is also classified as begging.

However: You may, if you are only a recruit, (or a member in need of a higher star item) ask an officer or the GM to withdraw materials from member storage ON OCCASION to craft.

2) Do not complain about party members' abilities to game. We are full tier, and members are made to be aware of that when they apply.

Instead: Advise members to game properly in a nice manner.

3) No racism. We have members from all over the world.

4) Do not use guild chat for personal one-on-one conversations. Do not spam in guild chat. Do not conduct business in guild chat. Use proper grammar in the chat, and when talking in general, cause you look like a better person doing that. Do not discuss sensitive topics in guildchat, you know, the ones that almost always make people disagree. (Politics, religion, and sexism are the big three no-nos). PM individuals to talk about those things instead.

Instead: Use guild chat to ask for general mission help, or participate in a friendly group conversation.

5) Do not send random mission invites. Pop ups are annoying. This means do not send an invite unless someone asks you to.

Instead: Use the guild chat or send a private message to people asking if they want to run a mission. Do not send the invites unless people respond with an affirmative.

Instead: During events that have tokens in levels, like Great Harvest or Anniversary, random invites are acceptable if tokens are found in that level.

6) Do not, in general, complain about things (especially how low your personal CE is, etc.) in guild chat. We want to keep a light atmosphere.

7) Stop when someone asks you to stop. The current topic is too upsetting, or your behavior is too annoying. (Like spamming, yelling, etc.)

8) Do not ask for promotions. Read the wiki's information on promotions, and you will understand how our system works. Do not imply that you want a promotion.

Instead: You may ask once if you feel you have vanished into our ranks and we have forgotten you. Make sure you are qualified for the rank up before doing so.

9) Do not insult, name call, or taunt guild members.

10) If an individual goes inactive for 30 days or more 'without announcing the reason' to another guild member, they will be removed due to inactivity. The reason must be a real life situation - other games are not acceptable as reasons to go inactive and stay in the guild, since that is your free time spent elsewhere of your own will: logically, if you don't want to spend that time in spiral knights, then remaining as a standby participant in a guild does not make sense. It is very easy to wander for a long time in other gaming worlds, so we harbor no hard feelings should you leave for a long time for this reason. See return to guild policies below.

11) If you swap your representing knight in the guild with another knight under your control (an "alt" account), then you stay a recruit in the guild for 7 days, then the rank you had before on the other knight will be restored. This helps maintain consistency through a period of decision making.

12) Violation of Energy Well parameters (in guild hall info tab on this page).

13) Violation of Storage parameters (in guild hall info tab on this page).

14) Violation of room/furniture/expansion consensus.

PvP policies: Announce "I'm going to go sub for GvG" in the guild chat before you go. Mail the GM or an officer your guild rank, and that you left for GvG, requesting a re-invite. Rank will be restored when you return to the guild. Don't try to fib now, we have your ranks recorded in this wiki and other places ;P. The guild itself does not que for lockdown or blast network.

Breaking the Rules

• ---Applies to breaking of core rules, and multiple instances of other rules.
• ---First offense: 5k to Treasury. If the offense risks guild inventory or energy, then a demotion occurs to prevent further withdrawals.
• ---Second offense: 10k to Treasury, demotion (if a recruit, you are out of the guild)
• ---Third Offense: removal from guild.
• Severity varies. If a person commits a particularly dastardly deed, officers of the Umbra ring (typically: can be any officers on duty) and Guild Master will vote to remove the offender, no matter the number of offenses. It takes two officer votes and the GM's vote to remove a person in this manner.
• ---If we feel after observing you that you probably aren't right for us, but have not broken any rules, we will ask you nicely to leave, or in very bad borderline cases, remove you ourselves because we feel that such an action would be best for both you and the group. This has happened only a few times, and is therefore a rare occurrence, and has not been wrong so far. For being potentially the wrong move, we apologize deeply in advance. Everything we do is in the best interest of the group.

Examples of Behavior that will typically get you removed:

• Violation of rule 7, 9

Membership Notices:

• You have been removed from the guild <Of Draco Dusk> due to offensive, disrespectful behavior. (Insert Details describing behavior).

• You have been removed from the guild <Of Draco Dusk> due to repetitive breaking of the rules. (Insert Details describing rules broken).

• We are sorry to see you go. Why did you leave? If you would give us the reason(s), and a few improvement suggestions, this guild would be better off.

• ---Members removed due to inactivity will be documented for later, because individuals removed for this reason may rejoin the guild if they wish, however, there will be much discussion between officers and the GM before an inactive individual is allowed to come back.
• ---Members removed due to Breaking the Rules will be mailed a letter describing the reason for their removal, and will never be allowed back into the guild.
• ---If you leave the guild on your own for any reason (except glitches, other people messing with your account -which is extremely annoying, or any other decision that wasn't your own), you can only return once. That is, unless the circumstances of you leaving would have forced your removal. That's just intuitive, but this closes a loophole. We want stability in our ranks, and hopping in and out of our guild is not conducive to stability. Officer position is not an option for returning guildies.

• Try to get 3333 usables in your belt (such as poison vials, sleep vials, and so on - these drop from boxes and enemies) to get better elevator prizes.
• Try to complete a level with full health (at the very end of a mission, dropping your vitapod is an easy thing to to) for better elevator prizes.
• The elevator wheel can only give materials, money, or boxes if you are at full health with 3333 usables at the end of a level.
• Feeding Battle Sprites: only use the mineral food when your pet needs it to level up. Make sure mineral food isn't bound in your inventory if you want to make and sell the food your pet doesn't use to other people. Otherwise, feed common 5* (and lower star to top the hunger off) to get the sprite to the point of leveling. They take heat, but not a lot. Once you reach 50, establish a trade system with someone who doesn't have your pet - and feed it the preferred food for general feeding. Raw 5* monster drops no longer suffice - the heat bar barely moves. A 1:1 trade ratio for the materials you and your partner need should help level your pet more efficiently, as well as economically.
• We encourage joining open parties. It facilitates healthy guild bonding. If you don't want anybody joining your party, lock it. An open party is basically an invite to guild members. This is NOT like a random invite (see rules information).
• Students (anyone not a Teacher, or even Teachers, because we all learn all the time): check the list of Teachers to know whom you can ask questions about the game, and get precise, correct answers!
• You don't need a polaris. Gigawatt is fine, functionally.
• The Wiki is your friend! But sometimes the damage/speed bars are LIES.

• This activity takes place on Fridays, in the evening (EST). We’ll make a few announcements in /g, as well as in the MotD, for a while beforehand. If you want to participate, please read and understand the following carefully, as we will not want to answer questions when we begin – we will want to play.

• If you’ve ever participated in a prize-winning game called “musical chairs,” then you’ll get the basic idea. A few changes: since we can’t play music with each other in the guild hall without an external program like Skype, we will use a story with a defined keyword instead of sound ques. The stories will vary each week, as will the keyword, to keep things unpredictable as well as engaging. A non-participant in the scramble, called the Storyteller, will type out the story line by line, standing in the middle of a ring of chairs we’ve set up in a room in the <Of Draco Dusk> guild hall. Typically the Storyteller will be an officer, or a veteran who has been an officer. You can get a group together and play by yourselves, but without a Storyteller of these qualifications, we won't consider the game official, and will not take complaints regarding any activities associated with an unofficial round, unless they violate our Guild Rules. We have altered the prize-winning aspect of the game as well, details below.

How to Play

• 1). To play, you must deposit 5,000 crowns into the guild treasury. This makes you eligible for five rounds of Story Scramble, potentially winning 5 prizes! Or none, if the day is not your day. We don’t want you playing less than 5 rounds, since we need lots of participation to keep it fun.
• 2). We need 1-8 people to play. If there are more than 8, we will divide you into groups, keeping track of how many rounds everyone’s played.
• 3). A round of Story Scramble proceeds as follows:

Participants will start by standing next to a chair, on the outside of the ring. If you’re in a group less than 8, space it out as nice and even and symmetrical as possible. The Storyteller will reveal the Keyword, and count down 3…2….1, and begin typing out the tale line by line. Once the number 1 is seen, players will walk in a clockwise direction around the ring of chairs, and will not stop until they see the Keyword. Once the Keyword is spotted, participants will sit in the chair closest to their character.

• 4). Prizes will be given – one to the purple chair, a minor prize, and one to a randomly chosen green chair, a major prize, AFTER the 5 rounds are complete. Task of the storyteller is to record the two winners from each round, withdraw from storage, and give them out in order of who won in each round, chronologically. Available Prizes - details are below.

Rules

• 1). This is not a die-hard competition. Winnings are random, depending on what chair you happen to be next to when the word is called. Do not take offense, or give offense, to other participants. Good thing there’s no shoving in spiral knights, isn’t there?
• 2). Do not attempt to play without paying the fee. We can see who and who has not donated.
• 3). Do not be disappointed in your prize. You agreed to play, after reading this description.

Available Prizes

• 1). Minor Prize: ONE random 5* material, OR a 1-4* material of your choice. Use this to make pet food, items, or sell. It, or they, are yours.

Details: Choose 10 1*, 7 2*, 4 3*, or 2 4* from veteran storage.

• 2). Major Prize: 3 random 5* materials, OR a special prize, determined by external events such as holidays. Use these to make stuff, or sell. They are yours.

• Note: you cannot receive the following materials as prizes: Krogmo Coin materials, Shadow Lair materials, or Pet Food.

• Details on Major Prize Selection:

• The chairs in the Story Scramble room are set up in a ring, with a different chair at the top. We are currently using the green antique chairs as the majority, and the purple antique chair as the top chair, from the Moorcroft promotion. IF three rings ever comes out with different, totally awesome chairs, like miniature thrones or something, we might change these. But that really doesn’t matter, as long as there’s one different chair at the top. That chair is chair #1. Going in a clockwise direction, the next chair is chair #2, the next #3, ending with chair #8 to the left of chair #1. A number between 1-8 will be randomly generated using a calculator, or a math program. The corresponding chair will receive the major prize. Yes, it can overlap the purple chair, so a person can potentially win both prizes of that round.

• Source of prizes: Storyteller will withdraw the prizes from the Guild Storage, as needed. The large withdrawal of this kind will be understood to be for the Story Scramble on Friday Evenings EST. As before, we can see who withdraws, deposits, and how much, and when - so don't be sneaky. If you're doing a round yourselves, without an official Storyteller, the prizes will come from your own hoards.

A few other tips:

• To reduce lag, play on low graphics quality. Don’t DL anything while SK is running.

• Pending (we're still trying to figure out what to do with the Mist Wells, er, the Energy Wells).

• Any Guild shadow lair mission must be planned a week in advance, and have more than 4 wanting to go, in case the dreaded REAL LIFE interferes and someone in the original party has to drop. We PREFER to take people if they have something to craft at the sanctuary alchemy machine (not everyone in the group, but at least one person in the group, so the trip is as efficient as possible). If it's just for fun, then so be it. In this case, we highly suggest Darkfire Elite, since that has a decent chance of paying for itself, including the crown drops and Maiden Tear selling (use the AH for this, it's much more efficient).
• It is considered a Guild Shadow Lair if ONE of the following is met:
  • A shadow key donated by someone, withdrawn from storage, is used. In this case, every participant puts 30,000 crowns into the treasury. This is a redundant raw loss on the key itself, financial wise, but since it was donated (probably annonymously), it is a fair way for the group to pay for it, since the treasury benefits from the overal donation gesture of the key giver, whomever they may be. If there is a non-guildie involved, trade them 30k and put it into the treasury.
  • All members are guildies. Key source - if it is from the storage, yes pay for it into the treasury, if one of you buys it from the SD, or unboxed it from a lockbox, lucky you, then just use it.

• A) Donations are OPTIONAL. We just brainwash you with our Gremlin Ray to do so. For what the guild does as a baseline for upkeep:
  • For now, we ask that 5% (five percent) of the crowns earned in any mission a Vanguard runs be donated to the treasury. The % donated is up to the individual, and those below the rank of vanguard are not asked to donate, because we would rather you focus on getting the rank of vanguard. Donations are optional for all guild individuals, as you are paying for aesthetics with your donations. We want you in the guild for your personality, not your wallet.
  • Quick math: on average, Vanaduke runs yield a 450 crown donation per run.
  • Large donations are much loved! (Thanks especially to Staynoon, Sverna, Ventaile, and Wumpulump).
• B) Rooms and Expansions are delicate issues. In general, we will not purchase rooms, as they cannot be moved without being destroyed. In general, we will not expand without consensus and sufficient funds, as expanding increases upkeep: and we want to have a relaxed atmosphere. A demanding upkeep causes unwanted stress! And nobody wants stress in a game.
• C) Themes and Environments are also delicate issues. We will tend to change these according to events and promotions in game, for example, we did spooky theme for the Moorcroft kat event.
• D) Furniture is an aesthetic class of items that make the hall feel more like home. Furniture is purchased with a consensus system, with more expensive items taking more guild members to want them to authenticate a purchase. Furniture is paid for by funds in the treasury. Individual pieces can be paid for by a single guildie with a deposit to the treasury equal to the cost of the desired piece. A request must then be sent to an officer or guild master to obtain the furniture for display.
• E) Furniture is placed in the treasury as pure donation. Donating furniture does not justify taking resources from the guild, as you have a choice to sell the furniture on the market. Furniture doesn't help individuals progress through the game or purchase more CE if it's stuck in a treasury. Hey that rhymes. Feel free to collaborate with other guild members to purchase the more expensive (typically rare) event furniture pieces.
• F) Consensus System: for things purchased with funds from the guild treasury:
  • Moving anything around: 2+ people. Moving anything around in a room that is established: 2+ people and GM permission, unless the room in question is a rentable room, then someone who can move furniture and the current renter, or just the current renter.
  • For certain rooms, consensus has been reached after long periods of cooperation and time. These rooms are: Lava pit, School room, Officer room, AH. Don't move stuff around in these rooms.
  • Do not move furniture that is in use. Buy more if you want a certain look, or discuss moving it around with the GM:
  • Buying:
  • special note: bulk purchases (more than 3 of any one item) need the permission of either the GM or at least 3 officers.
  • special note: again, ONE person can completely pay for a specific furniture on their own. Consensus is only needed if Guild funds are used.
    • 0-4,000 crowns: 1 person
    • 4,001 - 10,000 crowns: 2 people.
    • 10,001-20,000 crowns: 3 people.
    • 20,001-40,001 crowns: 4 people.
    • 40,001 - 50,000 cronws: 5 people.
    • 50,001+: 6 people and GM approval.
    • Rooms, Expansions: Only the GM may alter these things, with the consensus of at least 7+ guildies, 3 of whom must be officers.
    • Themes, Environments: Only the GM will alter these things to support in-game events (if the change is paid for in full by the GM), or with the consensus of at least 7+ guildies, 3 of whom must be officers.
    • There must always be at least 300,000 crowns in treasury. Do not buy anything if funds will go, or currently are, below this amount.

• Pending

• A) DO NOT PUT MATERIALS IN THE TREASURY. We can't withdraw materials from the treasury once they're in there...game mechanics, not our choice. Those materials can only be used for trophies, so unless we're working on a trophy, DO NOT PUT MATERIALS IN THE TREASURY.
• B) Materials placed in guild storage are pure donation. Guildies can take materials for free FOR SPECIAL TRANSMUTING PURPOSES ONLY, from MEMBER STORAGE ONLY.
• Withdrawals for the purpose of selling are not allowed.
• Withdrawals for making multiple transmutes ("rage crafting" or crafting for UVs) are not allowed.
• Bulk withdrawals are not allowed.
• Withdrawals for feeding battle sprites are not allowed. Pets eat a LOT of food, crafts don't.
• Even if you pay, bulk withdrawals are not allowed. This is a pool of materials for the needy. We don't need cr for these things (minus the rare bits).
• Veteran storage is for Story Scramble. Donating stuff in this section means that crowns will be put in for story scrabble activity, ensuring that your material donation turns into a crown donation in due time. If you're being particularly generous, put the material in member storage.
• We will routinely move materials that are in excess, in the member storage, over to the Veteran Storage, in order to get them to be used more, and generate crowns for the treasury. While we realize you put things in member storage to be free...we think that you wouldn't want it sitting there getting dusty, either. If you want to ensure that your donation stays purely free in the member storage, send an officer or GM some mail with details.
  • Further Notes on this: never more than these amounts of these ranks of materials in MEMBER storage:
  • 50 of a 1* material
  • 25 of a 2* material
  • 15 of a 3* material
  • 5 of a 4* material
  • 5 of a 5* material
  • Extras, as stated above, will be moved to veteran storage on a regular basis for use in Story Scramble.
• Try to keep withdrawing to once a day.
• C) If you're a recruit and want an item, ask nicely. Whether you get the item or not depends on how well you've been doing with us.
• D) If a lower ranked guildie wants to donate materials classified higher than their own rank, they should mail the items to an officer or guild master with a "donation for storage" subject line, or trade, so we can put them in the right place.

E) Organization:

• 1-5 star general materials are placed in member storage, if you want them to be available to all guildies for emergency transmutes.
• Materials for Story Scramble go into Veteran Storage.
• Rare or special materials (such as Shadow Lair materials, Mod Cals, Enamorocks)are placed in officer storage.
• All other depositable things go into Officer Storage.
• Lol usables

F) Withdrawing:

• Recipes are bought for 1000cr more than the basil sale price, if they are 4* or 5*. Crowns from recipes go to either CE for the Energy Well or the Treasury.
• Common items are bought for 100 cr more than the vendor buy price. (A 2* item is bought for 850 crowns, for example).
• UVed items are bought for 500cr more than the vendor buy price. (Please keep decent UVed items for yourselves).
• Accessories are sold at a price the donor or an officer/GM feels prudent, and this cr goes into the treasury. Placing accessories in storage is, again, a donation, and does not justify taking resources from the guild, because accessories don't help individuals through the game, or help buy more CE unless they are resold.

• don't freaking do this (Bad Withdrawal Incident).

• Rare Items: Keep in mind these are not always available:
• 1,000 for an enamorock.
• 3,000 for a mod calibrator. We don't have calibrator mods.
• 10,000 for a Nightmare Mane.
• 8,000 for a Celestial Ore.
• 10,000 for Gremlonium.
• 14,000 for a Maiden's Tear.

• Upon Request: Place crowns in treasury equal to the amount required for purchase, and the item will be withdrawn and given to you.
• If you can withdraw yourself: it's better to place the crowns in the treasury first, then withdraw, but this is not a big deal, as long as the total exchange occurs within a five minute period.

• PM the GM for old vault data.

• As of now, the Vault is a functioning medium for the Energy Well. Sort of. Pending!

• Do not give anything or anyone but the Guild Hall Treasury/Storage/Mist Well or the characters "Draco-Dusk-Vault" or "Novaster" crowns when making a deposit.

• Special thanks to Corrider for making a Gunslinger Hat for the vault's costume!

• 3F rooms may be rented to guildies. This is a person's chance to arrange a personal area the way they want to (within certain limits...like no theme changes or purchased "room" class guild hall things, or floor tiling changes)!
• Rooms may be rented by anyone in the guild.
• It costs 1,000 cr to rent a Room for one week. The crowns are deposited by renters into the treasury.
• A person may rent a Room only once a week, we have to share! This is only if there's no competition to rent, otherwise a 1k fee a week keeps the room.
• Furniture purchase/placement requests go to officers or the Guild Master. We will arrange what we have for that Room, or buy what you want, if you supply crowns.
• Renting a room allows an individual to express themselves with furniture, or feel like they have their own tiny house.
• The room will be named " 'Individual's Name' Room (time (military) and day the room rent expires)" or a personalized name, if appropriate.

• Furniture in this list is placed, purchased, and can only be moved by the user:
• Birdsong Emporium: Bed: --------Snarklefarf
