Talk:Aurora (Guild)

Contents
Aurora Skype Group
Where we can instant message and create group calls.
Thia isn't a requirement(definitely recommended for officers and guild masters), but it does provide a more effective communication in terms of events.
How to Join
If you already have a skype account and program ready just add the following contacts:
- ankokuflare
- ineha.c
Make sure to include a message like "Hi I'm [username] from the Aurora Spiral Knights guild"
Installing skype
Installation shouldn't be difficult. I would recommend you to use the older version(4.2) of skype since it produces less lag and a more simplistic interface. http://www.filehippo.com/download_skype/8287/ If you are not worried with memory feel free to use the current release http://www.skype.com
Aurora (Guild) Announcements
For GMs/Officers to post guild announcements.
The New Recruit Initiative
The New Recruit Initiative is a long-term recruit giveaway, sponsored by donations from the members of Aurora. It's primary goal is to assist promising recruits in getting T2 access and obtaining a fundamental set of gear, concentrated around the Jelly King levels (Royal Jelly Palace, D15-17). Instead of spending time grinding T1 for the low heat and crowns, the New Recruit Initiative will give the recruit the gear requirements for T2 (2* or above) and allow them to effectively bypass it, moving onto the more profitable T2 in order to maximize crown gain.
To participate in the New Recruit Initiative Program, you must:
- A) Be a recruit
- B) Lack T2 Access/have difficulty defeating Jelly King
- C) Have no 3* or higher items.
- D) Fill out the following survey and mail it to both Lovingly and Ankokuflare:
Survey
- 1) What is your current loadout?
- 2) How long have you been playing Spiral Knights? When did you start?
- 3) What do you like about Spiral Knights?
- 4) Have you defeated the Snarbolax yet?
- 4.1) If so, how many Frumious Fangs have you obtained?
- 5) Do you know about the Spiral Knights Forum on the Spiral Knights Website?
- 5.1) Do you know about the New Recruits and Arsenal sections of the forum, which contain useful information for new players?
- 6) What do you think you can bring to the Aurora community?
- 7) One of the key principles of Aurora is learning, and as a recruit, you are entitled to ask any veteran, officer, guild master, and even member for assistance in any aspect of the game (short of begging). Please verify that you understand this.
- 8) Are there any questions you have about gaining T2 access/progressing in the game?
After your survey has been approved by the Guild Masters and Officers of Aurora, you will be granted a set of equipment based on your responses:

Training
The New Recruit Initiative grants recruits the gear they will need to complete the stated stratums. Additional help can be found by asking members for help on runs and tactics with the newfound weapons. We have a great group of veteran players here at Aurora, and please feel free to ask away about anything! Remember, there are no stupid questions :).

Inactivity Check
We will be hosting an inactivity check around the end of December, to hopefully make room for more knights :). If you have an extended absence coming, or don't feel like playing SK that much anymore (SADFACE :<), let one of the officers or GMs know beforehand!
And, if you've been removed for inactivity but have returned, message one of the officers/GMs and we'll send an invite right your way! :).

Recipes
This is where we handle recipe exchanges. You can request your guildmates to keep an eye out for recipes, or post a list of your own recipes and offer them to guildmates! Submit the name of the recipe and the star, and please, either finder or seeker, edit as soon as it's no longer required.
Note: Please don't request here if you intend to resell. This is more for guildies helping guildies, rather than profit. Thanks :)
