Officers
Officers are expected to stand out from the crowd, to prove themselves to be above and beyond the average player as far as integrity, skill, and EQ knowledge. They work in the best interest of the guild. Before you find fault with one, you should realize that they were promoted to officer status for a reason, and we don't go around randomly promoting people without taking all things into consideration. Promotions are planned and well thought out over time. You will not be promoted within the first week of your play time with us, despite your being max level with 800K HP and 50K AAs, and begging all day.
Can I be an officer?
No.
How about now?
No.

No.

No.
How about now?
No.
How about tomorrow?
No.
When can I be promoted to officer?
Your desire to become an officer will be taken into consideration. If we feel that you meet the criteria for the position you will be nominated for future promotion. Inform me that you are interested in the position.
What is the criteria for being promoted to officer?
Please note that seniority alone does not automatically mean that you are qualified for the officer position. Maintaining a positive character in everything you do will show more influence than seniority, in regard to whether you are qualified for the officer position.

- Officers are typically online frequently enough to maintain the position of officer. If all guild officers each logged on once a week for a half hour, think about how many more people would need to be promoted to officer, to maintain a steady frequency of officers being available. On the other hand, it would be absurd to require that you are online for 12 hours a day.
- Officers are expected to serve as guild liaisons when other players have questions about, or issues with Callidus. Members should direct other players to a guild officer when such conditions arise.
- Officers should ensure that an applicant has met the guild requirements for recruitment before offering a /guildinvite.
- Officers are expected to invite approved players at the first possible moment. We want new recruits to know that they are important. Officers are not expected to leave a group or abandon what they are working on in order to tag a player.
- Officers will always act in the best interest of the guild, and not provoke people to altercation. It is not a popularity contest, but officers should maintain a positive relationship with everyone in the guild.
- Officers should be knowledgeable about the game, zones, and mobs. You cannot possibly know everything, but you should be able to answer general questions that arise.
- The Guild Leader reserves the right to designate or demote officers at any time, for any reason. It does not mean we hate you if you are demoted. It is not the end of the world if you are demoted, and is not always permanent, but always that we are working with the best interest of the guild in mind. If you want to be promoted again after being demoted, earn it! This not only means being helpful, but also maintaining a positive character in everything you do. It doesn't help much if you deposit 50 million plat worth of goods in the guild bank and then get into arguments with the members causing them to leave the guild.
- Update: The guild officers should also know how to edit and check the Message Of The Day without accidentally erasing the whole thing.
/motd updates the MOTD.
Example:
If Maestrell types /motd Raid today! will look like
Maestrell: Raid today!
If Maestrell types /motd (without anything after it) the MOTD will now say:
Maestrell:
If you want to READ the MOTD you type
/GetGuildMOTD
If you erase the MOTD you will have some angry officers coming after you with pitchforks and torches!
