Altosk was founded by Gilz on November 3rd, 2012.  The guild's original members were friends of Gilz and admired his idea to create a guild in which anyone would be allowed to join and would never be turned away simply for being a "noob".  Altosk was founded on the principles that the more experienced players should be there to help the new ones and that a guild should be like your second family.  To this day, the guild still follows those ideals, but on a much larger scale.  From the 10-20 members it originally started with, Altosk now boasts a membership of 200+ at all times.  The guild never acquired the fame of other, more pvp based, guilds, but it has still made quite an impact on the Spiral Knights community as a guild that no one can hate or complain about.

'''Recruit''' - You get invited....pretty simple really.
  
'''Member''' - Also simple! Simply look for either me or an officer to give you a quick tour around the hall and explain how to donate and use the member storage, then PRESTO! You will be considered an official member of Altosk! Simple no?
+
'''Member''' - Also simple! Participate and contribute to the guild's community by talking in guild chat, donating to the Treasury, or participating in events! [http://steamcommunity.com/groups/AltoskOnSteam Altosk Steam Group]
  
'''Veteran''' - Now we get serious. A Veteran is someone who has shown loyalty to the guild by working hard to not only help himself, but other players. You earn the veteran rank when an officer or I have seen you working hard to help with the guild and help the other members. Veterans are also trusted members as we all trust you NOT to mess with the guild in design mode! The Veteran rank is earned when the Officers nominate a Member and then the rest of the Officers and GMs will vote on who deserves the rank.
+
'''Veteran''' - A Veteran is someone who does all of the things a member does and more; they have shown loyalty to the guild and shown themselves to be a true Altoskian.  To become a Veteran, one must be nominated (usually of Knight or plus ranking) by an Officer or Guild Master, and then the Guild Masters will vote and come to a decision.
  
'''Officer''' - This rank shows how much trust one has earned in the guild. If you've earned the rank of Officer it means you are now a role model in the guild. You are someone that I believe everyone in the guild should look to for guidance and leadership in the absence of a GM. As such, Officers MUST donate regularly per week. (Think of it as paying rent for keeping a room that you only have to share with two people instead of 100) Officers must set an example for all Members and Veterans to follow so Officers must be kind, understanding, and have a lot of patience. Being an Officer is NOT game and it comes with a lot of responsibility so please don't accept or apply for the rank of Officer if you aren't ready to handle such responsibility. Officers are picked out by GMs and there are a limited number of spots, so once all spots are filled, no more applications will be accepted.
+
'''Officer''' - This rank shows how much trust one has earned in the guild. If you've earned the rank of Officer it means you are now a role model in the guild. Officers represent the members of Altosk who most accurately depict the ideals and values that Altosk stands for. To become an Officer, one must be nominated by a current Officers. The Officers and Guild Masters will then vote and come to a decision.
  
'''Guild Master''' - I now have some CO-GMs at last! This is what I'm looking for in a GM. I'm looking for leadership. Someone who is kind, but not afraid to be strict when the time comes. A GM must be able to operate on their own and (after a certain period of time of course) should not require any of my advice or instructions on non-important matters. You must be well loved in the guild and well trusted as well. The GM rank is only given by me. No one else can award you this rank so don't go begging a GM for it as they'll just say no. I don't award this people to those who deserve it, I award it to people who can handle it. By the way, out of about 300 people who have been in this guild I've only picked 3. Just thought you should have a good idea of how likely it is that you will get this spot.

To this day, the guild still follows those ideals, but on a much larger scale. From the 10-20 members it originally started with, Altosk now boasts a membership of 200+ at all times.

  • And Finally, NO BEGGING! The members of this guild will always HELP you to get what you want, but we will never GIVE it to you! Earning something only makes it that much more valuable!
