About Us

Aeons is an active guild in the world of Cradle. We enjoy spending our time in both clockworks and lockdown. We do not limit ourselves to hardcore pro players as you may have noticed some of those in-guild. We like to promote friendship and competitiveness in the Spiral Knights community.

Active has been known to have very active members [Regularly have from 25-50 members online] and fun socializing in guild chat. We may have some immaturity in the chat but please keep it PG-13!

In-House Clan Wars

This is a fun event. We frequently have about 30 on, so we figured we'd make use of that. Every day that we have willing members each officer or guild master will be a team leader, selecting 5 guildies to be on their clan for Clan Wars. Guild Masters and officers will talk with their clan members to select a name for their group. When two groups are online, we will do in-house GvG (online guildies will be spectating if they are not in one of the 2 clans).

Each win will count for 3 points, each loss counting for 1. In the end, the prize will be decided by GMs and officers.

(Sore losers or winners will be disqualified ;D)

Ranking

Guildies who are seen constantly asking for promotions will either be demoted, or kicked from the guild, depending on the situation. We will have little tolerance for this behaviour. The ranking will be simple. (Each capture counting as 500 dmg)

Swordies

Member = 3 days as a recruit in Aeons

Veteran = 25k damage

Gunners

Member = 3 days as a recruit in Aeons

Veteran = 16k damage

Bombers

Member = 3 days as a recruit in Aeons

Veteran = frequently getting your team 8 or more captures, with an excellent technique

Officer = When you get nominated by a GM or officer, the GMs will have a council about it and decide whether you pass or not.

Guild Master = When one of the guild masters steps down, the remaining will have a vote on what officer will become a GM.

Guild Rules

1. Be intelligent -- ask questions to gain understanding; better to ask and learn than to not ask and never know.

2. Be mature -- act in a respectful and civil manner, towards guild mates and towards others.

3. Look forward -- do not despair over a loss; instead, focus on analyzing it to better understand and improve your gameplay. Remember, always say "good game."

4. Lift others up -- encourage and motivate your guild mates -- do not assign blame for losses and liberally share credit for victories. Do not criticize, instead offer suggestions as to how to improve.

5. Communicate -- If you have an idea for a strategy, say it. Don't assume others know something if you have never told them. Make sure everyone is on the same page before attempting a strategy. Be creative in strategizing and disciplined in execution.

6. Be friendly -- Be a nice person. Be helpful. Offer advice and support to your fellow guildmates. Help each other out.

7. Have fun -- Enjoy yourself. If you're playing a game, you should be having fun. This is not a job, this is a game. This is not saying that you should goof off while everyone else is focused on winning the battle; rather, it is to say that you should be having fun being focused on winning the battle.

Simple. No spamming in guild chat, whether it's to sell, buy, TROLL, etc. An officer or guild master will tell you to stop, and if you refuse, you will be either demoted or kicked.

Lockdown Rules

No, we're not going to kick you for having a bad game XD.

1. OBEY ORDERS -- Be attentive to your chat box, because as soon as the game starts, an officer or GM leading the team will be shouting out orders, and as a guild member it is your duty to obey them. If you're told to go to say "point 2," do not stop on the way to fight - go straight to your destination and defend it.

2. CAPTURE -- Here in Aeons, we have little tolerance for "damage hogs." Unless you've been ordered to base camp, you should be capturing along with your other guild members.

3. SPORTSMANSHIP -- No matter how mad you are, how annoyed you are, be it from opponent spam or your teammates not doing well, always say good game. Do not waste your time spitting insults at your opponent, but instead take the time to think "How can I help my team do better next time?"
