LUNACY UNBOUND CHARTER
About the Guild
Lunacy Unbound was founded on November 4th 2003,
the goal was to establish a progressive, raiding guild, while
keeping a unique family feel and atmosphere, and above all else have
fun without any drama. The bulk of our members are from
the United States, but LU has members from around the globe making
it possible for our members to find a friendly face no matter what
time they log on. The type of members we look for are people who
know their class very well, can operate in a team-based environment,
and are dedicated to staying with the guild.
Guild Structure
The guild is broken down into several circles of
responsibility
|
Role |
Responsibility |
|
Guild Leader |
Overall
management of the guild. Establish policy and procedure.
Maintain the guild, and set the guild's direction. |
|
Officers |
There
are several forms of officers in LU each one handles the day to
day management of their own area of responsibility. |
Loot Structure
Maintaining Good Standing
Members are considered to be in good standing and able to bid on
items if they meet at least a 30% monthly raid attendance quota on
the last 100 raids and
are not under any form of disciplinary action (I.E. probation).
Earning
Members earn guild credits (EGC). EGC is earned for attending guild
raids, completing guild objectives, and can be awarded additionally
in monthly bonuses for exemplary aid to the guild. Credits are
earned on a "per-person" basis, not a "per-toon"
basis meaning multi-box characters do not gain a multiplier, and
points are granted to the persons credit pool. All raids are considered
mandatory unless specifically stated otherwise; which means
that if you are online you are required to attend. Members who
do not attend raids while they are online without being excused by
an officer are considered to be dodging. Dodging incurs an EGC
penalty of the raid amount they dodged, plus may be subjected to
probation or guild removal.
Spending
EGC can be spent as guild currency for items earned on raids that
will be used by only the member who bids on the item. Items earned
on raids cannot be sold or transferred without the express consent
of the guild leader. Bidders/Rollers must be in good standing which
means above a 30% raid percentage and not under any disciplinary
action I.E.. probation. Order of bidding will always follow
the same loot order
Mains in good standing -> Trials and Members
less than 30% -> Boxed toons on the raid -> Guilded Alts -> Alts ->
The world
Members on probation may not get loot under any
circumstances even in the case of rotting loots.
Bidding
An item is placed up for bid. During this time
full members in good standing who were present at the time of the mob engagement will
begin making whole number incremental EGC bids in guildsay.
Fractional point increments may only be used when it is the maximum number
of points a member has. Once bidding ends
the item is awarded to the person with the highest bid. No
item may be looted until all bids are complete and the "Clear to
Loot" has been given by the raid officer. In the
result of a tie, the high bid is considered to go to the person who
bid that amount first. In the result of multiples of the same exact item the
highest and 2nd highest bidder are awarded the item. As in the
case of tradable loot all items won are to be used by the character
that has bid on the item.
Assigned Loot: Certain items such as bane
weapons, keys, specialty agro gear, etc, may be pre-assigned to a
particular member based on officer discretion.
Rotting loot: No-Drop Loot that will rot because of lack of bids
will first be opened up for bidding to trial members and then be randomed off to
all at no
point cost. Loot that is tradable will be saved for the
guild bank which will then be offered to the guild on an EGC
auction to be held in the forums or sold for guild funds.
Spells/ Groupable Level Runes: Full members who were present
at the time of the engagement of the raid mob are permitted to
random 0 - 1000.
The member who rolls the highest number will win the rune.
In order to be in on the rolling for a rune you must be no more
than 1 level level below the usable level for the rune.
A member may roll on each drop but once they win a rune they are
no longer permitted to win another rune for that day.
Augs: Augments that drop from mobs other than the main intended
target are up for randoming to all attending the raid. Certain
augs with specific melee effects may be limited to melee classes
only, or ones with specific casting focus effects or high manage
regen may be limited to caster classes only. Officers will
determine what is rollable or to be bid based on the drop, and
will announce any restrictions at the time of the drop.
Loot Etiquette
Before bidding on an item please consider how much this item is
needed by you and how much it could possibly offer a higher benefit
to another member who is currently bidding for it. It is very
imperative that loot be distributed on based on equality and that
members should be considerate of their guild mates needs, declared
mains always receive higher consideration when bidding on an item.
Remember there is plenty of loot to go around. Always wait for an
officer to call “Clear to loot” before looting any item.
Code of Conduct
Members of Lunacy Unbound are expected to conduct
themselves in a manner of mutual respect for their guild mates and
the population of the Seventh Hammer. Members are required to adhere
to the rules of conduct established by SOE. Policies and
procedures are constantly updated in the guild's forums. Members
must read and be familiar with all officer posts in the "Let It Be
Written" forum and follow the policies detailed therein. It is
assumed that members are regularly reading the boards and ignorance
of information there will not be accepted as an excuse.
Show your tag! We are proud of who we are
and where we got to be. It is against guild policy to go anonymous.
If you need to go anonymous for some reason, you should speak to
your class leader or an officer.
Leave of Absences: Members requiring extended amounts of time
from raiding need to alert guild leadership if they plan to be off for
over 2 weeks. Members who do not inform the guild, and are more then
1 month awol will be guild removed.
Self De-guildment: If a person removes themselves from the guild,
they may petition the guild leader for readmission within 1 week of
removing. If they do not petition within 1 week, that person may
re-apply to the guild. Under either circumstance, if the former
member is accepted back into the guild, that member will then
automatically forfeit any earned guild credits previously earned and
be on a 2 week probationary period in which they may not be allowed
to bid on any loot. Upon a second self de-guildment, that person
will no longer be permitted to rejoin the guild at any time nor be
permitted to attend any of the guilds events as a guest.
Application Process
Applicants can apply through the Lunacy Unbound Website, under the
"apply" tab. Once an application is submitted the guild
members will make comments of their
experiences and impression of that character, and officers may post
additional questions for the applicant to answer. After the
initial consideration phase is over the application will be either
accepted or declined. If the application is accepted the
applicant will be invited as a "trial" member to the guild.
During the trial period the recruit will be expected to achieve a
raid attendace percentage of 50% and will be
evaluated on their general fit in the
guild and knowledge of their class. Guild credit during trial is earned as a normal
member, however they will not be able to spend it on any loot
(except what is passed up by full members).
A guild trial will last generally 30 days, if the recruit is not
accepted to the guild by the time the trial period has ended they
will be removed from the guild at that time (based on the guild
leader or administrative/recruitment officer discretion). They may however
apply once again if in the future they can meet the guilds expectations.
