Tiros:

Welcome to the Gryphos Tyros

Below are the initial rules of the guild, these are subject to change, indeed they are likely to change within the coming weeks as the guild grows and a natural evolution will occur.

Do not message the Griffons Leadership

Whilst we are a sub-guild of the Griffons, we are also independant. Being a member of this guild does not instantly give you right and cause to pester full fledged Griffons. By all means get to know our master guild and it's members, indeed that is both encouraged and required, but problems are yours to sort out, or in some cases mine, the main guild has no part in this.

Player issues

If you have problems with another player, do not expect support from the main guild. Until you are a full-fledged member you will receive no protection from The Griffons or it's members. This isn't to say we wont assist you if it's both necessary and you are clearly in the right (Evidence is necessary)

Bear in mind diplomacy plays a major part in the Griffons lifestyle, so if you show no ability to talk things through then it's clear you don't belong in the guild. It's easy to impress us by showing people skills and an
easygoing attitude.

Promotion in the guild

This part of the rules is most likely to change.
Right now, the Gryphos Dux Militum has decided to have 3 ranks of applicants, the first is your initial position in the guild, the second and third ranks will begin your sorting. You will be promoted to a second/third rank if we believe we have learnt enough about you to make a decision as to how you are as a player.

There will be no difference between the second and third ranks beyond the name. You will not be made aware of the requirements for either rank, but perhaps you can figure it out by who is promote into which.

Promotion to Observer is impossible.

Promotion to vice leader is at the discretion of the Leadership. We are hoping to promote four vices from the applicants to this position, these will be the first four who stand out to me as having the qualities necessary. Until then the position holds no authority.

Respect your fellow members

This should go without saying, but I believe it may be necessary. Insults and threats to other members of the guild will be taken very seriously. If you have a problem with another member, you speak to the Gryphos Dux Militum or the Observers.

Behave in an honourable way

Despite being seperate from The Griffons, whatever you do will reflect upon both guilds, as such we expect you to act honourably and respectfully towards all other Tibians. Flaming on the forums, threatening players (especially inthe Griffons name) and being impolite ingame will result in disciplinary action, generally instant removal from the guild.

Progress

We expect all members to be active, progression must be evident, preferably in level since it shows dedication to the character. Skills and magic level have no bearing on your existance in the guild, but we do want to see you advancing. Remember, the more dedication we see, the higher chance you have of joining the main guild.

Assist in the roleplay

The Griffons are scientists, writing articles about Gryphon myth and legend, the stratosphere and other projects will be looked upon favourably.

Inactivity

Short periods of inactivity can be overlooked, although a post stating that you will be inactive is preferred. Long periods of inactivity may result in a kick, but will not affect your chances if you decide to reapply.
