| [tt]The Following Steps:[/tt] | |
| Should your application be approved, we will arrange for an | |
| in-game initiation for your character. If things go smoothly | |
| there (there's always a possibility that they don't), your | |
| character will then face a trial run as "Unmarked''. | |
| During their stay as Unmarked, the leaders of the guild will | |
| watch them work and judge whether they are a suitable candidate | |
| to join the Sixty Thieves officially. Similarly, the officers | |
| will keep an eye on your roleplay OOC. If the expectations are | |
| met both IC and OOC, your character may receive their mark and | |
| be promoted to the rank of "Marked", getting to enjoy all the | |
| many perks that come with it. | |
| What follows are the four main aspects assessed when considering | |
| someone's progression to the rank of "Marked": | |
| 1. Guild rules | |
| Following the Guild Rules and Code of Conduct is crucial, and | |
| failing to do so will lead into displeasure in the leading | |
| ladder, and other possible consequences depending on the | |
| severity of the case (see 'Guild Rules' and 'Code of Conduct'). | |
| 2. Roleplaying style | |
| The officers of the guild will be keeping an eye on your | |
| roleplay OOC. If your roleplaying style works well with the | |
| guild concept, and we have no qualms about your OOC conduct in | |
| conflict roleplay or otherwise, you may progress in the guild. | |
| If your roleplaying style or character don't seem to fit well | |
| into the guild concept, the officers will approach you to have a | |
| chat. If no satisfactory outcome can be found, this will result | |
| in removal from the guild. | |
| 3. Character actions | |
| The officers of the guild will be keeping an eye on your | |
| character IC. If your character can prove to the leaders that | |
| they are a worthy asset to the gang, and they haven't broken | |
| rules or otherwise caused too much trouble, they may progress in | |
| the guild. It's important to note, however, that we have no | |
| issue whatsoever OOC with characters who cause trouble in | |
| roleplay. Even if the character doesn't get marked or meets an | |
| untimely end, we would be happy to have you try on another | |
| character, provided that the other criteria are met. | |
| 4. Activity | |
| Some level of activity and participation in the guild's roleplay | |
| is required. Extended unexplained inactivity at the Unmarked | |
| stage without notifying the officers OOC will result in a kick | |
| (see 'Absence Rules'). If you return to the game or character | |
| later, you may poke an officer for a potential re-invite to | |
| attempt your Unmarked stage again. | |
| [hr] | |
| Thank you for taking the time to read through all this, and we | |
| hope to hear from you soon! | |
