FAQ
May I join with an existing character/roleplayer?
Yes! Provided the character is human and has a sensible name and is
human, you may join. However, your skill level may not exceed 100.00 in any
skill and must only consist of permitted skills. If your character was
previously an enemy of the Guardsmen Militia then you may have to prepare
yourself for some hostility – this however is strictly IC!
What skills are not permitted?
We do not permit our Guardsmen to use: Magery, Chivalry, Bushido, Spell
Weaving, Necromancy, Provocation or Meditation.
Ninjitsu, Animal Taming, Animal Lore and Poisoning are restricted to
certain members only. Please ask if you plan on using any of those skills.
How do I get a promotion?
Be active! We do have promotion guidelines in place and these are well
advertised throughout the forums. Upon completion of any promotion requirements
you must contact a Corporal, Sergeant or Captain, supplying evidence of how you
have completed them. In addition to the listed criteria you must show you are
active, well disciplined and worthy of a step up the ranks!
What do people mean when they refer to Copper?
We have a unique way in which we reward our members; In
exchange for contributing to the guild through running events and completing
tasks you will be awarded copper. The copper can then be used to purchase
better equipment, skill scrolls and additional stat points for your character.
When can I talk OOC?
Never! Some guilds allow their members to talk OOC when using brackets
[lol] but Grd is not one of them! It is quite easy to say most things IC (In
Character) without resorting to OOC. If for example you need to go to the
bathroom, don’t say: “[I gotta take a piss]” say “I need to take a short nap,
Sir!” instead.
If you have lag sat “The horse trampled over my foot.. It may take time
to recover” or “The mud is bad today, I can barely walk” do not say “I’m so
lagged!”
For anything you can’t say IC use guild chat/party chat or even ICQ.
Alternatively, just wait.
(The abbreviation OOC stands for Out of
Character, or more traditionally: Out of Context.)
Can I hang around with
non-Militia characters?
The simple answer
to this is no. Depending upon which context you look at this question it could
have two meaning; May I bring my non-Militia alts to Stonekeep or can I hang
around with non-Militia characters/friends with my Militia character. We do not
like members to bring their alts into Stonekeep without a roleplay reason (for
example if you’re taking part in another roleplay event and have to pass
through Stonekeep or your craftsman has arranged to make a delivery to us
etcetera) We also would advise that your character not remain friendly with
anyone from a warring guild. Friendly guilds and allies are permitted, however
if the war should change and we no longer remain friendly with a certain guild
or nation, you would be expected to end your IC friendship (of course you are
free to do as you wish on non-militia alts or OOC).
A Guard keeps harassing/killing
me! What should I do?
First of all, try and determine
why you were attacked/killed/harassed. Had you misunderstood an order? Done something
against the rules? It is usually the case that one party has done something the
other didn’t agree with and has been punished for it. It is not against the
rules to enforce the Militia Oath.
However, if it is not a case of
punishment and/or you are not satisfied try and resolve the matter with the
person on ICQ. If this does not have the effect you want please contact a
member of Militia Command (contact details can be found for them on the
website) who will happily sort out the problem for you.
