    Q: What brought you to our website?

    A: NWO Forums

    Q: This recruitment process requires that we get to know you a little bit. Tell us about yourself:

    A: I would describe myself as an independent player who likes to try different classes to better understand the game, as well as being a crafting junkie.

    Q: Please let us know what your @handle is (your character will be called xxxxxx@yourhandle, for example mine is @bezza1985). Many people will have a different @handle compared to their Account name on this website, so knowing your @handle will let us know that it's you in-game!:

    A: @haledaen

    Q: All members are expected to uphold respectful conduct when communicating with other players and guildmates. This applies to in-game situations, our website and on guild/NWO related websites and message boards. Intolerance for others based upon religion / sexuality / gender / ethnicity / etc. is not welcome. We are a guild of HONOR and INTEGRITY, and we reflect that in all public forums. The general rule of thumb is to treat people how you would like to be treated in return. How do you feel about this?

    A: I'm a big fan of the Golden Rule.

    Q: OSD is generally a "casual, do it all" guild, meaning we welcome players from all playstyles and don't limit our focus to one playstyle in particular. We welcome PvPers, PvEers, Roleplayers, Crafters, etc. For example, while we may offer weekly raids, we are not a hardcore raiding guild that requires you to raid 5 or 6 nights a week. We also do not consider any one playstyle to be more important than another, all members of OSD are equal. For example, a hardcore PvPer will never be considered "more valuable" to the guild than a casual Roleplayer would be. Are you okay with this? Any additional thoughts on this topic?

    A: It's a game, not life or death.

    Q: With the previous question in mind...We will never force you to participate in any activity or event that falls outside your playstyle of choice. However, from time to time you may be asked to help the guild out if we are short a particular class, or just need to fill up an empty group spot. Are you okay with this? Any additional thoughts on this topic?

    A: I'll help out whenever I can.

    Q: We do ask that you stay active on the guild website as much as possible. We don't expect anybody to become a forum junkie by any means. But we do expect our members to cast their votes on any polls we put up, give input in any posts we make asking for opinions, as well as chime in with your thoughts when other members open discussions. What are your thoughts on this?

    A: Who doesn't like polls?

    Q: We have found that guild members have a better gaming experience if they use the forums and the events calender. This allows you to get game information and join guildies in quests as your RL time permits. Do you intend on being active on our website forums and Events Calendar (event calendar for NWO is coming soon!)?

    A: Yes

    Q: Once you learn how, we would like you to create events or RSVP for other scheduled events as your RL schedule permits. What are your thoughts on this?

    A: I'm drunk on the possibility of such power already.

    Q: Are you willing to give priority to guild-sponsored events?

    A: It might be tough to pass up that random PUG with the obnoxious leader who boots indiscriminately, but I can do it.

    Q: Nearly all of our events are scheduled in the afternoon or evening EST/CST/PST. Events done outside of this time frame will require initiative on the parts of interested members in organizing them. Are you okay with this?

    A: Yes

    Q: Have you been playing MMO's for a while or are you just getting started?

    A: I've been playing MMOs for awhile now. Everquest, FFXI Online, LOTRO, DDO and now NWO.

    Q: What kind of character do you typically play? Tell us about what will be your main character:

    A: Rogues and Wizards have always been the classes I've started with.

    Q: If you violate ANY rules defined within the gaming EULA you will be removed from this community. You ok with this?

    A: Consequences for ones actions? A novel idea indeed!!

    Q: What time of day do you typically play? How often?

    A: Evenings, weekends on the East Coast, US

    Q: Are you affiliated with any other guilds in NWO or other games?

    A: My Wizard and Cleric are in guilds, which is to say I joined random shouts and am simply a number in their herd.

    Q: How do you think you can best help this community? How can this community best help you?

    A: If you are looking for someone who wants to play the game (and it is just a game) drama-free, I feel I can contribute positively.

    Well met...

    Just wanna say hi
    And let you know
    Our leader'll be along
    To read what you wrote

    'til then be sure
    Your app looks complete
    So, membership here
    We will then entreat

    Make sure you've applied
    For BOTH "Citizen" and "Member"
    So that this process
    Won't seem like forever

    I'm not at the level
    To grant guild permissions
    Just don't want you to feel
    Like you are a missin'

    So, pull up a chair
    Grab something topped with bacon
    It just might amuse you
    While you're a waitin'

    :p

    Happy Hunting!

    Hey mate, the app looks good, and I had a *snicker* at some of your answers... (not the chocolate bar.....although that would also be nice!).

    Permission groups are all approved. Once you've left your current PUG guild, send me a PM here and I can send you an in-game invite.

    Welcome to the Order!

    Please also take the time to say hi in the 'new recruits' thread in the NWO subforum.
