**Applicants - READ BEFORE APPLYING**

Post by Kazh »

GENERAL INFORMATION

Eternal Sovereign is an Eastern time zone raiding guild that has chosen the long but steady approach to advancement. We are one of the oldest remaining Everquest guilds, established in 2000 on the Tholuxe Paells server. While our goal is progression we recognize that members have real life commitments and strive to maintain a fun and friendly atmosphere.

Our normal raid hours are Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday from 7:45 - 10:30 pm Eastern time.

ES does not have minimum quotas for loot, kills, or raid attendance, but we do require those who are online during raid hours to attend raids. Ideally members will be active raiders able to maintain 60% or greater attendance; however, we do not penalize or remove members for lower attendance.

Our loot system is a zero sum fixed-price DKP system with silent bidding. DKP for each item is divided equally among all raid participants. Items are designated "Tier B" for standard items or "Tier A" for rare or high-value items such as weapons. Members with greater than 60% raid attendance are given a higher priority for Tier A items; however, members may bid on (and win) Tier A or Tier B items regardless of attendance.


GUILD POLICIES

Guild policies are available on the ES web site:

RECRUITING OFFICERS

(or talk to any officer)



BEFORE APPLYING

Contact a recruiting officer in-game to discuss expectations, confirm that you meet minimum requirements, and ask any questions you may have about ES or the application process.

ES does not accept group applications. Although we appreciate interest from families or groups of friends, each application will be considered individually on the merits.

Players who do not meet minimum requirements or lack gear/levels may be invited to apply early. These applications will be placed on hold for up to 4 weeks in order to get their character 'raid ready'.


APPLICATION

Once cleared by the recruiting officer, complete your application as follows:

1) Register for an account on the ES forums (your username should be the same as the name of your main character): http://www.eternalsovereign.net/forums/ ... e=register

Note: Please coordinate your request with a recruiting officer to make sure your account gets activated (usually within 24-48 hours).

2) Create a magelo profile: https://eq.magelo.com/ or raidloot profile: https://www.raidloot.com/profile

If you do not currently have an active Magelo account, do not sign up for the trial version just to use Magelo sync. If you do, the profile will be marked private for the duration of your trial period and we will not be able to see it. You will need to create your profile manually as outlined the the post Magelo How To.

3) Post an application in the Applications forum using the template: viewtopic.php?t=36699

4) Meet in the Guild Lobby or other agreed-upon location for guild tagging.


APPLICATION REVIEW (3 WEEKS)

Applicants will be evaluated for 3 weeks in both raid and group environments to determine whether their attitude, ability, and play style are compatible with membership in ES. The applicant's knowledge and skill of their class, ability to follow instructions, treatment of other players, and raid performance, attendance, and teamwork will be key considerations.

During the first week, applicants are eligible to win rot loot only if no other bids are received. Items awarded to first week applicants will be charged 0 DKP. If multiple applicants bid on the item the winner will be selected by random roll. After the first week, the applicant will be enrolled in the ES DKP system and begin earning DKP and attendance points normally. Once enrolled in the ES DKP system, applicants may bid on and win loot only if no ES member/main bids on the item.

At the end of the application review period, ES members will cast a vote for or against membership. A recruiting officer will contact the applicant in game to notify them of the results.


PROBATIONARY MEMBERSHIP (2 WEEKS)

ES requires a two week probation period for new members voted into the guild. Probationary members have the same rights as full members with the following exceptions: probationary members may not cast membership votes and may be removed for low attendance or actions disruptive to the guild.
