Obsidian Spur

Guild/Forum Rules

Let's start with the basics...

The Rules of the Obsidian Spur

What Defines Asshattery?

Abusing Guild Chat
* Guild chat is pretty much free for anything, and if you don't have tough skin you won't survive in it. However, this doesn't mean it's always dangerous territory. If someone's being a prick they'll be quiet-timed, but that's about the extent of it. The spectrum of conversation can be both erratic and erotic, so expect anything.

Abusing Ventrilo
* There are moderators in Ventrillo, and they won't hesitate to kick or ban strange characters that start any bit of trouble or annoyance. If you want to bring guests into our Ventrillo, ask others in advance. Certain Ventrillo channels may be designated with a specific purpose, such as a raid or PvP channel. In those cases, do not speak in that channel unless you are a participant in that activity. Retribution will be swift if you're being an asshat.

Abusing the Boards
*We do not heavily moderate the forums, but we want people to respect the forums and use common sense when posting. If you are deemed to be abusing your posting privileges, an admin may deactivate your account. This behavior also includes spamming the boards. Actions such as posting on every single thread or on very old threads will get you in trouble with administrators. If you think a moderator is abusing their privileges, let Akumas know right away through a PM.

Abusing the Obsidian Spur Name
*Everyone is expected to uphold the guild name. This entails being respectful to other people in instance runs and general grouping. Don't be an asshat to others. While you may not think it's a big deal, word gets around and your reputation will be jack as an individual player. Guilds as a whole can have "bad" reputations as well, even raiding ones due to their slow learning curve players (dumbasses).

Abuse of the English Language
*Shorthand is for heathens. If English is not your first language, then we can't be too hard on you, but if you're just too lazy to take the time to write coherently, you're probably going to get nailed by a grammar nazi. Use decent grammar and avoid the use of 16-year-old shorthand.
