Guidelines for posting draft and suggestions...

[Taylor Millard]

I think we should post guidelines to entrance into Black Hand as we have had an influx of idiots who wish to join. Unfortunately these are rather vocal idiots who will not take a simple no for an answer.

I would prefer to not have to ban them, rather ignore them, but I think we should make 'Must Read' thread in which we tell them they must have experience RPing and be able to prove it, if they are asked questions.

I know, I would rather not do this, but if the idiots are going to be vocal...then it is time to show them why they canno just 'show up' and join.

Up to you guys, but I think we should.

Most deffinately. If we get accusations of elitism (and I hope we do) we smile, nod, and say, "duh."

[Taylor Millard]

:lol

I'd do it now, but let's hear a few more people. But I think we'll get a concensus of, "Yeah let's do it."

[Morgan Evanar]

Draw something up anyway so we can look at it. =]

[Taylor Millard]

Okay...

NOTE: To all potential posters who wish to join

We at the Black Hand are very selective with what RPers and characters we allow into our ranks. To be considered you must:

A) Have experience in RPing on the SWFans boards, as the character with whom you wish to join.

B) Have documented training (with RP Links). You will PM them to one of the mods listed above.

C) Be willing to be patient. TBH is extremely busy and will get to your request as quickly as possible.


EDIT- imo this would not apply to our apprentices. Although, I do believe they must be in good standing and a good RPer, before they're considered entrance. That's how you guys admitted me, and I think that's a good idea to keep up. Hope that makes sense.

[Taylor Millard]

OKay I went ahead and posted the rules we have right now. I'm sure if need be we can edit them if we choose to reword them.

That works for everyone?

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Um why'd you post them if no one else has read them yet?

[Lilaena De'Ville]

IMO they're not bad.

Should say "If you want to join on a level as an apprentice, please show RPing experience as a DIFFERENT character, and if one of the members may choose to take you on as a learner, with POSSIBLE membership in the future."

[Morgan Evanar]

I read them. =p

[Taylor Millard]

Sounds good. I'll add them. Anything else you'd put or reword?

'Cause Static was bugging me and I wanted him to stop sorry about that. :l

[Kar'h'tzen Shaed]

You might add a D) that addresses things such as "our current apprentices", in case either people gripe about it (unlikely) or you want to add other members in a way similar to the way we were added (we meaning me, I have no idea how the others joined).

Or not, because why bother if we get to be obnoxiously elite about it as we want? ;)

In any case, looks good as the general rules of thumb future applicants should be aware of.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

We have already discussed them to death. :)

[Jeseth Cloak]

I like those guidelines. I'm in favor of having them up.

[Taylor Millard]

They're up in Tribunal. HOpe everyone likes. :)

[Ebon Dir]

I managed to sneak in through a crack in the wall. And one of these days, I'm actually going to do something worthwhile.

I have grand vision...but the execution is lacking

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I could excecute you if you think its lacking. ;) Bad pun, I know.

*goes off to putty up the cracks in the walls* :mischief
