POLICIES

1.JOINING POLICY:


1.1 Applicants must prove RP ability
Upon being accepted into the guild, you must post a profile in the Profile subforum along with an RP sample. There will be a guild to show you how to do this.

Membership Co-ordinator.

1.2 Only one member per character will be accepted.
A list will be kept on the guild front page as to what characters are currently taken ( This does not mean one character per member, if you understand what I mean. One member per character).
This means if an applicant applies for a character already in use they will not be accepted into the guild. There are only two exceptions
a) the character is inactive
In this case, the member already playing the character will be sent a warning. If the member does not respond, they will then be banned and replaced by the new applicant
b) the applicant argues compellingly for an alternate version
In this case, permission must first be sought from the original member roleplaying the said character

1.3 Multiple Accounts in the Guild
Members may have as many accounts in the guild as they like, as long as they are all active. Each account will be treated as an individual, even if it is known the person has two accounts etc. Therefore, if one account becomes inactive in the guild regardless of the other account/s being active, the individual account will be subject to the normal rules in the guild.
However banning as a result of warnings may result in all accounts being banned.
Please note, that you can roleplay as more than one character from one account. You do NOT need to have another account to roleplay as another character (As long as you colour co-ordinate your posts to show the characters apart).

1.4 New Members and Team Rosters
New guild members wishing to join a team must submit and application and post it in the Teams topic in the main forum. It will then be accessed by me, OR the team leader. If the team is full, you will be asked to apply for another team or you will be placed in one. A character can however be invited by a team on a mission.

2. BANNING POLICIES:

Members may be banned by the Member Co-ordinator for the following reasons:
2.1 The member has recieved three warnings and is permanently banned.
Warnings may be incurred for such things as
a) Posting mature content in a public thread
Members must abide by Gaia TOS at all times, however dorms will not be monitored by crew unless a complaint is made by the owner of the dorm.
b) Posting innapropriately
Meaning, a member has posted an out of character discussion in a role playing domain or not followed specific rules for the particular thread.
c) Bullying or harrassing another member
Any situation where another member feels harrassed will result in a warning. This includes unfair attacking, godmodding, personal insults (as opposed to roleplaying)

2.2 Member has been inactive
Members who are inactive without sending apologies for a period of more than 10 days should be aware that the Captain sends a list of members who havent posted to the Mebership Co-ordinator/s and be sent a warning about being deleted fromt he guild. It they have not responded in the next four days they will then be banned and thier character will be opened for a new member.
In case of family emergencies or times when the inactivity may have been for significant reasons, the member is to contact the Guild Captain as soon as possible and they will be reinstated.
