[Fides nemo]

The Charter

Mission Statement:

Amaranth Knights was formed as an end-game raiding guild for mature players who have lives and responsibilities outside of World of Warcraft. Here at Amaranth you will find an active, friendly group of people that enjoy playing with one another. We have fun and skill up together. Our goal is to raid progressively harder content while maintaining a fun enjoyable environment for our members.

The following are the rules and guidelines that all Amaranth initiates/members (guildies), at all ranks, must adhere to. If you feel that a player has acted in a manner incongruous with this Charter, please contact an Officer.


Code of Conduct:

Note – Amaranth sees the actions of its guildies as a reflection on the guild as a whole. It is our desire to have the best reputation possible on the server.

I. Amaranth guildies are expected to treat other players with respect, both in guild and out. While most infractions of this regard are simple common sense, it is important to point out that 'Ninja-looting' (the practice of taking an item that a party has not resolved the ownership of) is expressly frowned upon and is grounds for immediate removal from the guild. Other antisocial activities such as; intentional kill-stealing, training mobs onto other players, corpse camping, or otherwise taking advantage of others will not be tolerated.

II. Amaranth guildies will adhere to the bounds of acceptable decency, and will not resort to an excessive amount of foul language or otherwise verbally assault others. Any racist, sexist, or other bigoted behavior will result in immediate removal from the guild.

III. Amaranth guildies will keep our own guild community free of drama and bad blood. Intra-guild issues will not be aired in the guild channel, and all parties should seek out the assistance of an Officer to settle differences if they are not able to resolve it themselves. We are proud of our guild's sense of community and members disruptive to the enjoyment of the guild will be removed.

IV. All guild chat conversations must foster a positive environment and be appropriate for any age, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or religion (ie: refrain from spamming, excessive foul language, private/party conversations, using CAPS, etc.)
