Guild Recruitment
All players wishing to join Ld Aces are welcomed .
Guild Rules.
Guild Chat / Public Chat Etiquette
1 - Guild members should all be mindful & respectful of others when chatting in guild chat. This includes avoiding innapropriate conversations or sensitive subjects which could make others feel uncomfortable or offended. (Including but not limited to topics of a sexual nature, strong language, religious / political views, etc).
2 - Guild Chat and Public Chat and our discord group must NOT be used to express insults and negative opinions regarding other players in the game and their guilds. This puts Ld Aces in a negative light and damages our reputation as a guild.
3 - Members should not participate in or instigate arguments with other players within public chat channels or guild chat.
4 - Members should be polite and courteous with each other at all times. Mistakes do happen and all members should be patient / understanding in these events. Insulting, name calling or being generally rude to others will not be tolerated.
5 - Racist, abusive or offensive remarks made to fellow guild mates will not be tolerated and could result in removal from the guild.
6 - Dissatisfaction with another player or guild should be discussed privately and any complaints wished to be raised must be sent privately to an officer or our guild leader to deal with.
7 - Although healthy debates are welcomed, arguments between guild members should be discussed in private and not publicly or in guild chat.
8 - Bullying behaviour or ganging up on members will not be tolerated.
9 - Messages that put Ld Aces in a negative light should not be posted on public or guild chat channels.
10 - Consistent behaviour of encouraging or driving conflict, tension and negativity within the guild, will not be tolerated. We expect our community to help to defuse disagreements, and reach friendly, respectful compromise, not add fuel to fires.
11 - All members are expected to do their part in keeping the guild atmosphere friendly and positive. Any personal grievances or disatisfaction should be brought to a guild officer to be dealt with in private. Let's keep our guild chat channels a positive environment. Consistent negativity in guild chat, forum or discord is not fair on the rest of the community, and won't be tolerated.
Finally, all members understand that Ld Aces is an "English Speaking Guild" and therefore any conversations in alternate languages must please be kept away from guild chat and conducted in private channels. This is to prevent "cliques" or "groups" from forming and promote a feeling that we are all one family speaking the same language - while ensuring that nobody feels left out.
Member Activity
1 - Members who have been inactive within the game for a period of 1 month may be removed from the guild. When the Guild reaches maximum capacity, this period could be reduced to a limit of 10 days, should there be a waiting list of members wanting to join the guild.
2 - Any long periods of absence due to unavoidable real life situations, members should inform one of the guild master or post in the activity section to state that they are on a break - this is the only way to ensure you are not automatically removed due to inactivity.
Please don't take offence as this is just to avoid the guild from being inactive, nothing personal will be intended.
Guild Ranking System
Recruit
Just recruited - Is still possible to be turned down .
Member
All players who join Ld Aces are immediately given the rank "Member". This is the starting rank upon joining the guild.
Veteran
1 - In Ld Aces we recognise our long serving members by promoting them to "Veteran" rank based on length of time with the guild. members who joined the guild before , will also automatically gain "Veteran" rank.
2 - Members do not receive any additional responsibility or authority, once they reach "Veteran" status. They are however recognised as long serving, experienced players who we hope will use their experience to help newer players where they need advice or tips on playing Spiral Knights, as well as making them feel welcomed in the guild.
3 - Members are automatically promoted to "Veteran" rank once they have been in the guild for a period of one months, provided they are deemed "Active Members" and not long term inactive.
Officer
1 - Guild Officers are responsible for the general supervision, management and support of the guild and its members.
2 - Guild Officers are involved and responsible for a wide range of guild operations, including recruitment, organising guild events, website administration, disciplinary action, and much more.
3 - Guild Officers are there for you, the members – so feel free to contact an officer if you ever need any advice, assistance or guidance in the guild and they will help wherever possible.
4 - Guild Officers are responsible for ensuring that Ld Aces rules and values are respected and adhered to. They maintain peace and harmony within the guild, and will step in to resolve disputes, disagreements or other kinds of disruption that may occur within the guild.
5 - We strongly advise that you contact and speak with our officers, in private, should you ever have a grievance or concern you wish to raise.
6 - If you ever have any new ideas or suggestions, again please contact an officer.

8 - Officers decisions on matters are final, any abuse or lack of respect shown towards our officers will not be tolerated.
9 - Guild Officers are only appointed through an interview / recruitment process. These vacancies will be advertised in the Discord group when they come up and members will have the opportunity to apply for the role.
Guild Master
Don't even ask, the Guild Masters shall choose.
Live Streaming & Recording
As a guild, we'd like to invite & encourage you all to feel free to Live Stream / Record your adventures with Ld Aces. As a guild, we don't want to impose loads of rules / regulations, but we would ask you all to adhere to & respect a few basic common courtesy guidelines.
When wishing to Live Stream or Record a guild PvP, GvG , BN , LD , party run or Social event, etc .
1. Please inform all participants in Discord that you wish to Live Stream or Record the event - and ask if anyone has any objections for you to proceed.
2. For those participants who aren't in Discord - please inform them in guild chat.
3. In the event one or more people in the group does not feel comfortable to be live streamed, please do not continue with the stream / recording.
Punishments
Violating the rules of the guild is something that we take seriously, as it can lead to hard feelings and damage overall group cohesion. In the event that someone is violating the rules of the guild, we will investigate the matter and take appropriate action, whether the player in question is an officer or not.
In the event that someone is behaving contrary to the rules, the first step is a discussion with the player in question and a notification that there is a problem. No further action will be taken, and if nothing else happens within a week the entire thing can be forgotten.
A separate or continuing incident requires further steps. Someone who is consistently behaving contrary to the guild rules will be assigned a probationary rank with limited privileges for a week's time pending any further behavior violations. Further behavior issues will be dealt with via removal from the guild.
If someone is removed from the guild due to inactivity, they may reapply and rejoin the guild with no penalty whatsoever. If someone is removed from the guild due to behavior violations, they will not be permitted to reapply in the future.
It's important to keep in place the idea that players who screw up consistently enough to get removed don't get to just walk back in after some time has passed and the heat of the moment is over. Gone needs to be gone.
Oath Of The Aces

LD ACES MEMBER AWARDS
Greetings fellow Aces!
We're very pleased to introduce you all to our official Ld Aces Member Awards program.
We have so many wonderful and amazing members in our community, who do so much good for the guild and are always being helpful. This is our special way of recognizing those members who help make our community the positive, friendly, helpful place that Ld Aces is. We recognize that if it wasn't for the great people we have in our guild, Ld Aces wouldn't be the friendly, fun place that it is. Put simply, without YOU guys and girls, there is no Ld Aces. For us it's super important that we shout out and celebrate all those who have made a positive difference, be it big or small.
Every month, we carry out an Ld Aces Awards ceremony, where we issue out special awards to all those individuals who have been noticed for making positive contributions to the guild.
While the Officer team will be collectively agreeing on some award winners, the members themselves will also have the ability to nominate and put forward fellow members who they want to recognise with an award. This is a great way of thanking those who make Ld Aces a great place to be, and we want to shout about it. The challenge is always trying to remember everyone who's done something special without leaving anyone out, there are always so many!
Member Awards Types:
Guild Champion
The "Guild Champion" award is awarded to just ONE special member each month, who has really stood out as being a brilliant and outstanding member of the community, who has made a huge positive difference to the guild. This award is decided and awarded by the entire guild management team, but we will also take members nominations into consideration when deciding the winner for this award. This is the "King" of all Ld Aces Awards and is given to one person each month who has really stood out amongst the community.
Above & Beyond
The "Above & Beyond" award is awarded to all those members who have gone out of their way to help make Ld Aces a positive and fun place to be. This award is awarded by both the members and officers, to anyone who has been recognised for making a positive difference in the guild, whether that be a small or big thing. This could be for anything from being generally helpful, sharing useful info or any other small acts of kindness. Members are able to send us their nominations for winners of this award anytime, though the award ceremony happens once every month where all winners are revealed. The 5 members who receive the most nominations, will win the award!
Party Animal
The "Party Animal" award is awarded to those members who never take themselves too seriously, and can often be found injecting positive & fun energy into the community. This award for our "party animals" who can always be seen having a laugh, goofing around, and making others laugh with them! Think of our Party Animals as the "Morale Boosting" members or our community, who really make Ld Aces a FUN place to be! Members are able to send us their nominations for winners of this award anytime, though the award ceremony happens once every month where all winners are revealed. The 5 members who receive the most nominations, will win the award!
Shiny Medals
All award winners are assigned a cool shiny Role in discord for every award that they receive!
You can view a full list of all the awards, and previous award winners (along with reasons) on the main Award Winners Channel. You can access this channel from our discord group
Members can view their earned medals on Roles they have on discord . This means you can show off all your shiny medals to anyone who visits your profile . and they will be granted a shield picture with there name on it .
For us, this is so important, because we owe our success to our members. We're love celebrating the fantastic community we have here, and want to say Thank You to all of you for the small and big things that you bring to Ld Aces.
We open up nominations for you to put forward the names of people you would like to recognise every month. As a reminder, you are able to nominate winners for the Above & Beyond and Party Animal awards. To ensure that these awards remain special, the 5 members with the MOST nominations per category, will be chosen as winners! Officers aren't eligible for member awards, but you're welcome to leave a message for any of the team!
Feel free to get in touch with any of the officer team if you have any questions about how the awards program works.
Kind Regards
Ziyadk-Kk & Your Ld Aces Officers
