The Golden Rule: Be Excellent to Each Other!

1) For the most part Skara Brae will be a family-friendly guild so the use of profanity in guild chat is strongly frowned upon. Of course a temporary frustration or short outburst under stress is understandable but overall try and keep it clean.

2) Fellow guild members should always be treated with respect and dignity.

3) The guild leadership sets the tone for the guild and is charged with supporting the membership and lending a hand when possible. This does not mean being selfless to the point of burnout so members should also understand that another player is entitled to reschedule assistance at a time of better availability or proximity.

4) Whenever possible rare or high value items should be offered to guild members before being brokered.

5) While recruitment is a benefit, membership size is not a priority. We absolutely value quality over quantity.

6) Skara Brae does not open recruit across open zone channels or attempt to recruit players from other guilds. Before guilding someone they are usually grouped and friended and given the opportunity for a question and answer session.

7) Guilding is initially followed by a 48-hour hold-harmless / getting-to-know-you phase where the guild and player get to know each other and either side has the chance to end guild membership with no hard feelings.

8) Players may be promoted by participating in forums, helping fellow guild members, recruiting new members, and assisting the guild leadership with testing and refining policy, procedures, and of course the web pages.
