Okay. First off, sorry for the screaming. I just wanted to grab your attention. ;D Now that I have it, I'd like us to "sit down" and discuss some stuff. I want to hear your imput!
SWP is not "MY" guild. It is "OUR" guild. It is our family. And as such, I want to hear YOUR imput! I want to know how you think we can make the guild better.
We will be having an officer meeting in a few weeks (I'd like to set it for November 2), so I'd like to hear everyone's ideas before then!
I would like your opinions on a few things and then with anything else you have in mind. So here it goes...
1. Ventrillo or TeamSpeak? Yes, there is a discussion elsewhere about this, but humor me. Also, since there is currently a limit of 8 people on a free vent server, I'm looking into SWP purchasing our own 40 man server. Cost is around $92 a year. If you can help contribute, please let me know! Once I hear we have the funds, I'll try to get it set up!
2. What do YOU want to do in the expansion? Raid? Quest? PvP? Everything? How do you want to see everything? Solo or with a group?
3. Is there anyone in the guild that has really helped you out ALOT that you'd like to see acknowledged for their awesomeness?
4. What kind of events would you like to see the guild have in the future?
5. If you would like to run with the guild, when are the best times for you??
********************
With the patch coming in Tuesday giving us an IN GAME calendar, we will be utilizing it ALOT! So far on the agenda is to have Thursday nights deemed as PVP nights. Friday and Saturday nights will be raid nights... possibly Sunday nights as well. All other nights are open for questing, helping, or instancing.
I will be setting a few "rules" in place soon as well. If you are reading this, then already you are following the first one!
1. All members need to be members on the swp forums (And read it often!) I'd like us to utilize these boards more than they are being used!
2. Check the in game calendar every time you log into the game! No more asking in guild chat what the daily instances are. We will be posting them on calendar (if they are not posted yet when you look, help out your fellow wolfies and post them!!!)
3. If you have alts in the guild, please make sure your guild note shows us who you are! I feel like an idiot when I don't know who an alt is! Also, if you invite someone new to the guild, post in the guild note your name and invite date! (ie: inv:Neve 101008 For Neve inviting someone on 10/10/08)
4. This one will get me madder than a cornered skunk so I'm warning everyone on this one.... SHOW YOUR FELLOW WOLFS THE RESPECT THEY DESERVE! I shouldn't have to log into the game and hear that people are insulting a fellow guild member. If I hear about it, I will be tossing people out. Also, if I hear that you have been rude in Trade, General, or elsewhere, you may be demoted or kicked depending on severity of it. (Some of our guildies have non-guilded alts just for spouting off in trade. Go for it. *LOL*)
5. And remember, do not beg in guild chat. This includes not only begging for money but runs, enchants, mats, etc. If there are items in the guild bank you need (that are not on the last two tabs) feel free to take them. And yes, you can ASK in guild chat if anyone has an item, no problem. (Example of asking: "Does anyone have any rune cloth they aren't using? If so, I could really use some.") (Example of begging: "Hey! Will someone send me runecloth? I need it now!" "Pllllleeeeaaaassseee!!?!?!?!? I need runecloth!" "Geez, I really wish someone would send me runecloth"..... often times when things like this is said over and over and over and over and over.... people (LIKE ME!) get pissed. If you are caught begging and do not stop after the FIRST warning, you will be demoted to the doghouse where you are not able to speak in guild chat!"
