Things to keep in mind:
- This application is your introduction to the Clan Officers, make a good first impression.
- If the application is not filled out completely and honestly, it will not be considered.
- If you do not take this application seriously, the officers will not take it seriously either.
- Each application is considered on it's own merrits. Period. Even if you've been a friend of the Clan for eons
or have sponsors, friends, or family in the Clan, your application will be evaluated like everyone elses (fair is fair)
- Take your time filling out the application and take it seriously. The time and effort put into an application
can often prove the difference.
- Never trust the internet! We strongly suggest that you write your responses in a text editor
then copy/paste them into the browser to submit. Nothing is more frustrating than submitting an excellent application
only to see it disappear into the ether.
- If you aren't serious about joining the Daggers enough to be patient while your application is reviewed, answer any
followup questions that may be asked, and keep up to date on the Dagger forums, save yourself and the guild some effort
and don't submit an application. That's not meant to be rude but too many expect to be inducted the same day they apply
and that's just not realistic. Each officer reviews each application and this may take several days depending on their
Real-Life schedules.

FAQ:
- Q: Why is this application so long?
A: We take our membership and collective reputation very seriously. We also invest a lot of effort and a lot of trust in our new
members. So it's only natural that we only want serious applicants and that we want (and need) to get a strong sense of the applicant.
- Q: Can I be in other guilds on the same server while a member of this one?
A: No. Member alts may be tagged with the Daggers or untagged but not members of other guilds. This removes conflicts of interest
should there ever be inter-guild problems. (Note: This extends only to guild tags, you can group however you wish)
- Q: So I should answer the questions the way I think you want them answered?
A: Absolutely not. There's no litmus-test answer. And more to the point, honesty in answers will save both the guild and applicants
a lot of time and frustration. If there are potential issues, it's better for both applicant and guild to have then in the open from the begining.
- Q: I'm filling out the application as best I can but it still looks very meager, what should I do?
A: Consult a Guild Officer and trade a few e-mails if you're unsure (recruitment officer is a good
starting point). They're there to help. |
