History

INSPIRATION! :D

Once upon a time there was a guild named Aeternus Imortalitas. In this guild there were two members named Theultralord and Dark-Obelisk. Now around June this guild was doing pretty badly (they're fine now) as their main crown source, Mr-Cheung, has left the guild. Theultralord found this to be a rather insufficient system as one should not stand using a single stick, as one should not rely on a single source. Theultralord decided that maybe he could try to make something better, something that could be run by a better standard. Thus the first idea of Sparthens was born.

Mr-Cheung, anti-guild advocate

At the time, Theultralord was rather poor as he was only a Knight Elite. Needing a source of money, he complied to Mr-Cheung (yes, I know, hypocritical but hey you try making a guild in the mist days as a Knight Elite) as he knew Mr-Cheung wanted to make one. Mr-Cheung rejected him however as he put an age limit which Theultralord did not meet(I mean seriously who puts an age limit in guilds?). So he complied to two of his friends, Dark-Obelisk and Bawsperson.

Bawsperson becomes not-so-Baws

So things went on for a bit and Bawsperson decided to make his own guild, as in by himself,so he did. Dark-Obelisk helped Theultralord with it, though.

...and mist wells.

At one point, Theultralord was ready to make the guild but Dark-Obelisk was going through an afk stage so Theultralord had to wait. So he stayed in Aeternus for a bit longer than he expected and got in a fight with the guild master, Redchoccy, over mist will business. Now at the time Theultralord was a bit uneasy about starting a guild, but then Redchoccy kicked him. That motivated him even more to make a better, finer, guild.

Taka

Theultralord hung out with Phoenix-Wyvern in a guild called Taka for a few weeks, plotting the course of the future...

"I ship Sparta and Athens"

After a few weeks of afkness Dark managed to come online and Theultralord and he managed to finally make their guild. Theultralord, however, didn't know what to name it. He decided to go for Sparta, for its perfectness in the Olympics, its socialness, and its richness. Turns out that Sparta wasn't rich, and was taken. So he put Athens in it and thus Sparthens came in.

Sparthens is still growing so we aren't done yet!

If you were insulted by any of these titles, don't. These were humorous titles and should not be taken seriously. Deathshadow-Tech, they are probably temporary. These are Theultralord's requests. Dont ask me why.

About Sparthens

We're a growing, all-tier, knight friendly guild! We may not be the richest, or the most popular, or the most, err, "Coliseum-ish", but you know. Guild's gotta start somewhere right? To Join To join Sparthens contact a GM or officer via mail and they'll consider(they'll probably let you in). Rules As a guild there are some limitations in what you can do. Recruit-Member-Veteran rules

MAIN RULES

1. No excessive swearing in the guild hall, in the guild chat, or at a guild member. If you're really angry an occasional is okay but no more than that.

2. Try to be active. If you're gonna be gone for more than a month let a GM or officer know (if it was unexpected for whatever reason please mail a GM your reasoning)

3. Don't beg, whether it's for promotion, demotion(for some weird reason), crowns and energy, it just isn't allowed. The only exception is the /beg but no more than that.

4. Be nice. Don't have a short temper. Just don't.

5. Give the GMs some space. They have been working tirelessly to keep the guild active.

Having problems? If you have any problems with the way a guild member is treating you contact a GM or officer. If you wish to file a complaint for anything, send a mail with proper punctuation (I cant tell you how important that is) to a GM or Officer.

2. Mail your ideas for new guild rooms to Phoenix-Wyvern NOW!! (At the moment, he wants a bar, lounge, and/or barracks)

3. If you want to carry out a guild fundraiser or feel that we should have a meeting to discuss something, please contact an Officer or GM.

4. We are still waiting for the return of Dark-Obelisk. He has gone to help a friend and he should be back anytime. (hopefully)

5. Wish a fond farewell to one of our outbound officers, Deathshadow-Tech. A loyal member of our guild, he has served tirelessly only to find that he wants to create a guild of his own with his friends from his school. No hard feelings! At the end of the year, as per his goal, he will be forming his own guild called Torchwood (the name sounded cool to him), but we will engage in close alliance with his guild. Best wishes! We'll help you along the way!

Here we have Dale-Cohanger, Phoenix-Wyvern, Deathshadow-Tech, Loduten, and The-Ultralord donating and/or working tirelessly to ensure we get properly up and running, while you inactives and hoarders are holding back your cash. With your help, we'll make the guild a better place. If you help us, we'll have more than that one new floor. We'll have a skyrise guild hall, with Training Rooms, Coliseum Rooms, Accessory Rooms, Unbinding/UV Rooms, AH Rooms, a Bar, a Lounge, a Garden, a Boss Room, and SO MUCH MORE!! But we can't do it without your help. We need you, Sparthenians. Lend a hand! (Oh, by the way, if you dont, you're going to have to start paying taxes) (No pressure though)

Guild Procedures

Taxes!

Yeah. Sorry. But due to the inactivity of around 40 out of 60 members of the guild, Theultralord and Phoenix-Wyvern have been forced to implement taxes. Dont blame them, those 40 forced their hand. Here is the proposed tax plan. It will be pretty lenient, but it will be monitored EVERY SUNDAY. Be prepared to pay! If you do not pay for one whole month without declaring absence, we will be forced to take... measures...

Here is how the plan will work.

PROPOSED Mandatory Payments--NOT FINAL

1. 100cr per week per knight in the guild. Not including Alts.

2. There must be one 1000cr donation at the end of the month, replacing the final 100cr payment.

3. Tax will be "collected" on Sundays, and will be monitored using the Guild Record.

4. ANY KNIGHT WHO DOES NOT PAY FOR ONE MONTH'S PAYMENT WILL BE a) interrogated if he comes online OR b) if he does not come online for a week after we figure that out, he will be demoted and/or kicked from Sparthens.

5. Notify an officer or guild master if you are taking leave. you will be excused from that week's payments.

6. We will appoint a tax collector officer. More on this part soon.

Guild Fundraisers

Silver Key Fundraiser

If a member of the guild is willing to donate the profit made off of an opened iron lockbox to the guild, he can start this fundraiser. Members must donate energy to that player, and the player will use the engergy to craft a silver key. The key opens the lockbox and something is found inside.

If the item is valuable, it will be sold off the AH and the profit will be split among the guild, the owner of the lockbox, and the biggest sponsor.

If the item is not so valuable, the item goes to the biggest sponsor for him/her to do whatever with it.

Guild Events

Guild Meetings

1. The meeting is conducted with parliamentary procedure. If you dont know what that is, search it up.

2. There will be NO deviation from topic UNLESS Phoenix-Wyvern is conducting a drinks break and is serving you drinks from his portable bar.

3. If more than half of the online guild members are not able to attend, the meeting will be voiced IN GUILD CHAT. If you dont know what that is, its just: "/g Hey. I'm guild chatting." on the SK Chat server.

4. Until we have a proper guild meeting room, all meeting will be conducted in the Sparthens Office in the guild's left wing. All members MUST follow the guild rules. Absolutely NO profanity at guild meetings. Guild Masters sit in the front, guests at the back of the table.

5. The center chair is reserved for whoever is holding the meeting, and ONLY them. That person gets to lead the meeting and carry out procedures.

6. A Guild Master or Officer MUST be present for ANY meeting to take place. The meeting MUST be on the weekends, because Phoenix-Wyvern, Theultralord, and/or Loduten are usually on then.

7. Have fun! :)

Guild Party

1. Guild MUST be open to all visitors.

2. There must be more than 4 people in the GH to consider it a party, and it CANNOT be a guild meeting.

3. Parties can be thrown, say, when we make certain accomplishments, like new rooms, new wings, new floors, new themes, etc.

4. Do what you want. Dont get drunk on Phoenix-Wyvern's drink cart. AND PLEASE FOLLOW THE GUILD RULES

5. An officer and/or guild master MUST be present.

5. Phoenix-Wyvern requested this section. Theultralord probably wont approve but its here anyway. For now...
