Beyond the Core | "Diversity, Maturity, Community" | Now recruiting active players of any tier!

- Steam Group - Wiki Page - Youtube -
Hello ladybugs, gentlemen and individuals somewhere in-between, welcome to the first official thread of Beyond the Core a new guild out on the prowl for recruits. Here at Beyond the Core we don't pride ourselves on the skill of our members or on arbitrarily limiting the scope of our recruiting with gear or tier restrictions. All we look for in recruits is mature, sociable and all around pleasant people who desire to be a part of a larger group of people whom all unite under on common cause; to have a good time. We don't aim strive to the best of the best or break world records, we strive to create an inclusive and friendly community that anyone will feel welcome. If you're looking for a guild to join but feel intimidated by guilds you shouldn't be here, we welcome players no matter their gear, skill level, age, race, gender, gender identity, or even if you're a sentient AI trying to imitate humanity. As long as you're mature and friendly you have a place within our ranks.
As a guild we frequently go dungeon diving into the Clockworks doing things like Dauntless Delver runs, all sorts of hectic messing-around amidst various depths, not to mention we go around slaying bosses and running the daily Prestige and Danger missions. Our lower tiered and skilled members will find themselves both able to progress through missions and tiers with players of their own skill and be able to look to our more skilled members for advice and assistance, where as the upper echelon of the guild will be able to look forward to weekly Shadow Lairs, guild Lockdown matches and all sorts of interesting challenge runs. As a guild we constantly aim to run all sorts of weird events, from screenshot competitions to fashion contests, we like to think that there's something for everyone here.
We have one and only one rule; be nice. We expect you to be respectful and friendly both to your fellow guild members, and other players of Spiral Knights whether in Haven, the Clockworks or the official forums. As a guild we don't tolerate mean spirited behaviour, if you're found to be behaving in a bigoted, elitist or in an otherwise hateful manner you'll find yourself expelled from our ranks immediately. That being said whilst we do not explicitly ban the use of rude language, as a guild that welcomes players of any age or minority we prefer you refrain from using offensive terms in the guild chat, you won't be outright punished for it however if people within the guild are made to feel uncomfortable because of it you will be asked to stop, and upon persistence may be removed. If you feel any member of the guild is causing a problem, message one of the Officers or Guild Masters explaining the situation, taking screenshots of the chat log is also appreciated.
If you wish to join Beyond the Core then simply fill out of the following application and then either post it in this thread or mail it one of our Officers or Guild Masters;
1. In-Game Name
2. Timezone
3. A brief explanation of why you want to join us (Doesn't have to be more than one or two lines, preferably no more than two paragraphs at most)

We are now open for recruiting, so send in your apps!

Heya guildies (of old). :)
I will miss the ramblings in guild chat. However, this is not goodbye of course. Good luck with the new group, and I'll be seeing you guys/gals in-game.
Cheers!
PS.
If you guys/gals on Steam get a friend request from a similar named account - yep, that'd be me. :)

3. A brief explanation of why you want to join us: Because I would like to be able to connect with other players and have a friendly community to play with :>

Thanks for the support Dbugz, hope to still see you around in the Clockworks. If for whatever reason you ever decided to leave GP, feel free to post an app here, you and every other old member of GP are welcome.
As for you Portal, I sent out your invite, apologies for the delay but the steam authenticating issues are obnoxious ;_;

3. A brief explanation of why you want to join us: I have been looking for a nice guild who is friendly and fun, and this seems like the place! I've always wanted to chat and have a all around good time while playing so I'd like to join! :3

Explanetion: I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. [laughs] Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like [coughs] tears in rain. Time to join a guild.

Playing alone gets lonely sometimes, I'd like the option to play with other people, without being paired up with random people who rush to get loot. A guild for mature individuals seems like the optimal oppurtunity for me to do that.

1. In-Game Name: Cenebi
2. Timezone: PST
3. A brief explanation of why you want to join us: I mostly play alone, or with a couple RL friends. It would be nice to be able to play with friendly, mature people rather than playing with whatever random people join me. Being able to participate in some more interesting runs every now and then sounds like fun.

Timezone: CST
Reason: This guild has friendly, mature people, am I right? It's a good idea to have a teammate you can trust. Not the kinds that ditch you during a boss because you get knocked out often.

The first video of a guild run is finally up courtesy of Vandergant, although it's of a somewhat unique scenario.
Anyhow we're quickly expanding but still on the lookout for active, friendly players. Keep on sending your apps in :)
Edit: Our guild wiki page is also now up and running!

3. Playing a game by yourself can be fun, but with the right people it can be awesome. I want a guild that is fun-loving and does a multitude of activities, and you guys really seem to fit the bill. From reading your description, I'm betting that I'll have a blast with you guys. Hopefully this experience will be quite heartening for me (didya get the reference?).

How did that button get there? Well your guess is as good as ours, but we're now at 20/100 members and still recruiting, so keep on sending those apps in!

3. Playing the game for a week now But I havent found a great guild, and I really want to. This thread obviously has work put into it, and this guild clearly has the right values needed to be great. All the applicants look like tons of fun and active.

With the new guild hall updates coming next week expect a lot more guild oriented events soon, as well as discussions regarding what we're going to do with our guild hall. Additionally we are still looking for recruits so keep on sending us apps!

3 I'm new to this game, and looking for a friendly group to belong to. I have extensive experience in group management, as I was a GameSage [volunteer customer service] for AG [Game: Metal Assault] until about a year ago. I also help manage the community forum for that game after it closed down. If this looks like a job application, I'm sorry ._.

3. A brief explanation of why you want to join us: I am looking for a fun, welcoming guild to play the game with. Please pick me. It is so lonely running the clockwerks by myself.

And now our official Youtube channel is up where videos of Prestige Missions, Danger Missions, Shadow Lairs, Guild Lockdown, and basically anything else guild related will be uploaded, so I suggest you subscribe!
Additionally with the guild hall update coming up we're planning our guild hall renovations and still actively hunting out new recruits, so send in your apps!

3. I want to join the guild, because I'm looking for an active group of players, willing to accept a newb and help him get into this game.

Bump for great justice, the wiki page has been update with new information surrounding the guild hall!

3. i want to join this guild mainly for one reason, community. i felt like i was doing everything alone while i was playing, so i think this guild would help with that problem. i have mostly tier 2 equipment and can keep up a good fight too!

Hello! The details of my application are as shown:
1. Zorbez
2. GMT+8 (Greenwich Meridian Time+8 hours)
3. I would like to join this guild as I find that I am quite lonely in Spiral Knights whenever I play. I am often forced to go solo (I had to solo the Snarby mission), often causing me to DIE multiple times. I feel that by joining this guild, I will me able to help those like me in the guild and at the same time receive help from guild members. I am almost at tier three clearance. I hope you will accept my application. Thanks!

Looking for community tired of rolling through T3 solo and I want to do Shadow lair, have a good time and make friends.

3. A brief explanation: Ive just returned to spiral knights after a long break (was scammed out of 100k and just gave up) and i wanted to join a guild with nice and respectful members that help each other out. Also the star wars reference "this is not the double post you are looking for" made me lol.

Still recruiting, we're working out concepts for guild contests we're going to be running throughout December, and if the response is good possibly throughout all of next year!
e: Fashion contest takes place over the next three days, remember to log at the right times~

3. I want to join because ive been playing this game for little over a week now, still grasping the concepts of most things and I want to eventually find a good group of players to play along with. I finally want to explore the game alongside other players and receive advice from people who have been playing the game longer than me and this seems like the perfect guild to help me in my adventure.

I have just started playing and I want to join a guild.

Bumpy, keep on sending the invites in!

I can only be online on the 25th for now but I check in weekly except when it is exam week (obviously)
Anyways
IGN: Hawxindanite
Timezone: SEAT
Reasons: Well my guild is falling apart and they aren't very active either so I feel like this guild would be good and i want a guild that does runs often and one that dosen't discriminate knights (unlike my current guild). I also want a sort of like an extended friends list so if im bored I can chat to people in my guild to kill the time. Oh a btw I am tier 2 as of now I may get to tier 3 soon.

Hey there guys on the forums, I'd just like to put in my two cents worth on this guild. I joined on 21st November (see my app up there), and I must say, this is some guild Echoez has here. This guild is not only well managed, but also helpful. With my fellow guild members' help, I went from tier 1 to tier 3 in just a month. I have also truly enjoyed going on causal runs and speed boss runs with my fellow guild mates. They have helped me a lot with my missions (especially the devilite ones, they are a PAIN) that I would otherwise not be able to solo. All in all, I feel that this guild is one of the best guilds I have ever been in. I look forward to seeing future applicants among our ranks. Thanks a bunch Echoez! :3
Signing off, Zorbez
Hello there.
My Ingame name is Radiant-Blaze.
My Current Timezone is GMT+1.
I'm quite new at Spiral Knights and I was hoping I could find a group of friendly players who could show me the ropes. So if you'll have me, I'd love to join this guild.

3. I am new to Spiral Knights, and looking for a welcoming community of people to play alongside. I came to the game from the recently-closed Glitch, where I was a member of a collaboration-oriented group called Civility (originally a WoW guild, I think, though I was not involved with it then). Your guild seems to be organized along the same principles. :)

1. Crashbug

3. I would like an active, mature, but fun loving guild. You guys seem like that.

It can be a daunting task starting a new guild, but best of luck to you.
To anyone considering joining I would recommend giving it a shot. I have known Echoez, BHM and Vander for some time and they are all fantastic players and people.
