Reminder
Please remember that, although you have the power to do so, you are asked not to demote anyone, remove anyone, or promote anyone past Veteran. The Guild Masters work collectively to perform these sensitive tasks. Whenever you invite anyone into our guild, send them a mail message (not a tell) telling them where our wiki page is, so that they have a semi-permanent record. You could use this text here:
- Welcome to Lancer Knightz! Our guild has a wiki page:
- (Or you can just go to www.spiralknights.com, then click "Wiki", then search for "Lancer Knightz".) On the wiki page, you can learn about our projects, and contribute projects of your own. If you have any questions or comments, then talk to any Officer or Guild Master. Otherwise, happy playing. :)
Recruiting
Our guild is neither elite nor elitist. We're about having fun, being casual, and being pleasant. So recruit anyone you like. There is no minimum skill requirement or equipment requirement. I've invited many 2-star people, for example. However, here are some suggestions. First, there are two high-quality pools that you can tap:
- friends who are looking for new guilds
- pleasant, solid, guildless people whom you meet in random parties
Of course, you can also try to recruit random people hanging out in Haven. That's a little less productive, because the people have no reason to listen to you. Don't recruit someone who's already in a guild, unless you know that he's looking for a new guild; that can be annoying.
Recruiting someone into a guild is a little like asking someone out on a date in real life. You want to appear interested, but not desperate (which you aren't, anyway). Your initial message could be like this:
- Any interest in joining a guild, Smith? Ours is always recruiting. I can send you information if you like.
Notice that I've inserted the knight's name, "Smith". This takes a little extra effort, but it makes a big difference. If the knight is an advanced player, then you could alter your message accordingly:
- If you're guildless at this advanced stage, then maybe you just don't want a guild. But if you do want one, then consider ours. I could send you information if you like.
Neither of these messages says anything about us. They both talk about the person being recruited (which is not a bad tactic). But if you want to say something about the guild, consider:
- Interested in a guild? Ours is quite old, but casual and friendly. Let me know if you want more info.
If anyone asks for more information, then send them a mail message with the location of our wiki page. And offer to answer any questions. Be honest. If someone's looking for an elite Lockdown guild, then they probably won't be happy in our guild, so don't pretend that they will be.
