History
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 aquired 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.
Requirements
There aren't many. Altosk is really a guild that takes almost anyone who wants to be in a guild. The only thing you really have to do is prove yourself to be a loyal guild member by doing some of the following:
- You have to be active. Over a week of inactivity (with no prior warning of a REASON for said inactivity) will result in expulsion from the guild.
- DONATE! To be able to keep the nice guild hall you need to donate!
- Be kind and don't insult other members. This can't be stressed enough as Altosk does not tolerate belittling other members. Of course a little joking is OK, but you need to know when too far is TOO FAR! If any of the officers or Guild Masters hear about any bullying or harassment, they will not hesitate to kick said bully.
- 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!
- THERE IS NO TIER REQUIREMENT TO JOIN THIS GUILD! THEY ACCEPT ALL TIER AND SKILL LEVELS!
Ranking
Now here is a quick summary of how the ranks work!
Recruit - You get invited....pretty simple really.
Member - Also simple! Join the Altosk steam group: Altosk Steam Group
Veteran - Now it gets serious. A Veteran is someone who has shown loyalty to the guild by working hard to not only help himself, but other players. To become a Veteran, you must go through the application process (as described on the discussions board of the group). Once your application is submitted, it will be reviewed by the Veteran Manager who will ultimately decide whether you'll be accepted or not.
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 Gilz believes everyone in the guild should look to for guidance and leadership in the absence of a GM. As such, Officers must set an example for all Members and Veterans to follow so they must be kind, understanding, and have a lot of patience. Being an Officer is NOT a 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. The application process is explained on the steam group.
Guild Master - Altosk is 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 the head GM's 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 Gilz. No one else can award you this rank so don't go begging a GM for it as they'll just say no. This rank is not awarded to those who deserve it, it is awarded to people who can handle it.
Altosk's Motto
Together, we Rise. Divided, we Fall. The motto represents what they're all about. Altosk is all about working together. No matter what you face in the clockworks or in life, Altosk will be there to either listen or help you kick monster butt. The only way this guild will work is if we all work together so that being said, the more divided we become, the quicker the guild will fall. Hence, "Divided we Fall." We of Altosk will always help you overcome any obstacle because you are one of us, and together we will get stronger. "Together, we rise."
