Don't you look at me in that tone of voice.
What is a guild? Some people getting together to think about and talk about some topics on things, collectively, and do some stuff about other stuff with each other. Or so I'm told. If that's the case, maybe I'm not doing it right.
This is a tiny place. Like, "fit in your pocket" tiny. I tried wattering it, but all that did was get the floor wet and make some insects really angry. I don't try that anymore. That's where you come in.
We're reputable ladies and gents, yes? Yes. So let us go be reputable together. The name is harmless, I assure you, and holds a meaning that has no impact on anything. Or maybe it does. Stop asking questions!
New players are most definitely welcome, as are older veterans. If interested, please seek out with your eyeholes the following and apply your hand nubs to the keyboard appropriately.
>>Application Thing for Consideration of Acceptance Into the Thing of Such<<
1.) What is your knight's name? (If applying via mail, this can be disregarded. Unless you want to go that extra mile, because sometimes I can't read.)
2.) About how long would you say you've played? (So we don't try to throw you into the fires without knowing skill level first.)
3.) Why would you like to join? (We need to know if it's something we've done or if you were set up on a dare, bet, tax rebate or some other applicable scenario. We don't judge.)
4.) Do you like adventure? (Of course you do.)
5.) Which pronouns would you prefer? He, she, etc. (To avoid them awkward moments. This is optional, however if nothing is provided I reserve the right to use "The Lizard" until otherwise specified.)
>>Guidelines to Keep the Peace, the Balance and the Sanity<<
1.) Begging. It's not cool. You want to be cool, right? Begging is how we attract ants. Do you want ants? I don't.
2.) Excessive foul language will upset the villagers. We all have feels. Some more than others. Just don't direct the angry ones at anybody in a verbal assault and we'll all get along just fine.
3.) Donations are not required. Those are your funds, and you do with them what you want to. Build a birdhouse. Buy a doughnut. Build a doughnut house. Do it.
4.) Ask before joining someone if the party is open. Perhaps they've forgotten and don't wish to be disturbed. It's akin to a public restroom stall someone forgot to lock while in use, and having you barge in unannounced.
5.) It's okay to need help. We all do sometimes. What's not okay is spamming party invites, especially without asking. If they don't want to attend the party, they probably just forgot to buy a present and don't want to be embarrassed in front of everyone.
6.) While it's good to want to advance, please don't ask constantly about moving up in rank. When it happens, if it happens, it will happen. Unless it doesn't happen, in which case when it happens won't happen, which means it won't when it doesn't or never does.
>>Who to Contact and Throw Words At<<
Grudging-Claw (Guild Master)
You may either apply here or send an application to the name above. You don't have to title it anything fancy, but something witty is preferred.
Oh, oh, a guild. Been a while since I've been in one of these. Ok, ok, calm down. Act professional. He has no reason to hate you... You can do this...
1: My name is Mechao, the immortal, the undying, the ever-watching, and the untouchable... Ok, maybe it's just Mechao.
2: I've been here about a year after the release, but my account only says 2 years and 7 weeks ago, though I'm pretty sure that's the time I connected my spiral knights account to my steam account. Either way, I mostly know what I'm doing. At times. Hopefully. I should note, however, that I have left the game on two other occasions, but hopefully now it won't happen. Probably. Look, if I'm gone for like a month, just throw me out. No harm done.
3: I would like to join, of course, to help collapse the local infrastructure and bring chaos to the local poli- wait, sorry, wrong notes. Ahem. I would like to join because A: I rejoined the game recently, and am looking for a guild that Is still active, unlike the one a came back to, and B: because I am a very sad, lonely person.
4: Of course a love adventures! In fact, this one time, I had to live in the middle of a Wolver infested forest for several weeks! I mean, not willingly. Mostly because my team and I got into a bit of a fight because I accidentally repeatedly shot one of us in the head at least like seven times. They, uh... Sorta blew out the elevator. Had to live off the wild life.
Wolvers taste like butter.
I still have panic attacks whenever I eat butter.
*shivers*
Wait, where were we? Oh yes, question 5.
5: He, his, him, The Great Unholy Maurader How Has Brought Upon The End of Out Prople (this last one is to be reserved for a later date)
So, am I cool? Am I hip like the young knights today?
... Can I be loved?
