Compiled here are the various rules for all guild members including the Kroo and the Game Moderators. We urge you to check back often for updates, because these rules are subject to change without notice.

[The Main Forum]


Sniperville
The Main forum is used for everything that has to do with the game. All the updates are posted in this forum, and the game itself is played in this forum. This forum is also where all big guild decisions are made. It should be checked every day for announcements and threads deciding big changes for the guild.

[The Subforums]


The Snipéd D
What we call "The D" is where most off topic chatter goes. Everything that doesn't belong in the other subforums goes here. The 'D' stands for Discussion, therefore adding discussion to the threads you put there is highly recommended.

I Am Me!
"I Am Me!" is the forum to talk about yourself. All threads about you, rants, raves, journals, and threads showing things off all belong here.

Game Archives
This is where we keep all the old updates and memberlists, so you can go back and look through them at your leisure. Posting is not allowed in this forum.

The Recycle Bin
All old announcements, stickies, contests, stories, etc. go in here. If you have a thread that you wan recycled, as opposed to just letting it die and fall off the front page, contact a crew member and they will move it for you.

The Special Events Subforum
This is where we hold special events from time to time. It will usually be locked, with the title "Special Event" However, when there is an event the title of the forum will be changed to have the name of the event, and it will no longer be locked.

Guild Business and Suggestions
This is where important guild things are discussed and where we encourage our members to post suggestions for improving the guild in any way.

Kroo
This should be self-explanatory. This is the sub forum where the crew can convene and discuss important guild things. Here, the crew can conduct whatever they have to to keep the guild running smooth and strong.

[External Chats]

All of our large and permanent guild chats are on Skype, but we've had an IRC in the past, and other similar things. This section highlights the major ones.


Main Skype Chat
This is a constantly active chat for anyone in the guild who has Skype and wants to be in it. Anyone wishing to join can request to be added by anyone in the chat, and for quick reference, all crew members are in the chat (as are most veteran guild members). There are no rules in this chat, and it's run as a total anarchy.

SG Kroo Chat
Everyone currently in Kroo is in this Skype chat. Used for feedback and light discussion, not decisions, it's an easy way for Kroo members to get instant feedback on a non-major issue/issue requiring immediate attention even with discussions going on in the Kroo forum. So guild ideas or if we're getting raided/trolled.

SG S.T.D.
This is our NSFW SG Skype chat. If a discussion is getting too NSFW [see: sexual] we take it to this chat, or just hold NSFW discussions here in general. People will be added in if they request, but keep in mind it's only rule is that you don't act uncomfortable about what people are discussing. Pixie Saylor is the owner of the chat, for anyone looking to request being added.

Our offsite, offskype video capable chat! Similar to the Skype Chat but with video. :]

[Guild Rules]


1. Follow GAIA’s TOS, Rules & Guidelines, and the GGN Rules.
............Violation: Banned without warning.
2. No Harassment, Flaming, or making comments you KNOW will hurt/insult someone. This includes being rude and/or nasty towards another member. PM’s included. Insults and the like are fine as long as they’re in jest, pertain to the game, and NO ONE is hurt by it.
............Violation: Handled on a case-by-case basis. We CAN and WILL contact GAIA moderators if the situation calls for it.
3. Anyone running guild-wide events such as contests, parties, etc. with their main account may NOT have any member of the guild on their ignore list. If you do not wish to remove anyone from said list, please run your event from a mule account to allow every member of the guild to participate.
............Violation: Once reported by the ignored user, we will ask you to remove them from your list. Failure to comply will result in a warning and a second request. Further disobedience will be handled on a case-by-case basis.
4. No Page Stretching.
............Violation: Post/Topic edited. Informal warning issued.
5. No Suicidal Encouragement. Even in jest!
............Violation: Post/Topic will be deleted/locked. Handled on a case-by-case basis. A warning and/or ban will be issued depending on the severity of the situation.



6. [DELETE] or [LOCK] must be edited into the title of any thread you want to be locked or deleted.
............Violation: Topic will not be deleted or locked otherwise.
7. Mules and regular users MAY NOT cause any unnecessary drama in the guild.
............Violation: Guild ban for both mule and main account when the main is found out. If the main is not found out for months or years after the incident, they are still accountable, and will still be punished for their actions!
8. After three warnings, you WILL receive a temporary or permanent ban unless special circumstances apply, so behave! Only right before a guild banning will we look at how severe your indiscretions are, and whether or not your punishment should be adjusted accordingly.
9. Anyone wishing to add their mules to the guild memberlist MUST contact a Mod, VC, or the Captain from their main account prior to sending in the guild application and inform them that the account in question is a mule belonging to them. Any obvious mule accounts attempting to join the guild will be denied membership unless their main accounts make themselves known to the Crew. Main accounts WILL be held responsible for ANY indiscretions caused by their mules, and will receive the SAME punishment as the mule account in question.
10. These rules may change at ANY given time. It is YOUR responsibility to check this thread for changes. The crew will do it's best to inform everyone of changes, but ignorance of the rules is NEVER a valid excuse.


-Petitions-


These rules and regulations govern the workings of petitions.

1. All petitions must be posted in the Guild Business and Suggestions forum.
2. A petition must clearly outline the changes it wishes to initiate, and must reach a total of 10 signatures to be considered.
3. Petitions must also gather a majority vote from the crew, and finally a majority vote form the guild at large before the changes take place in the guild.
4. All petitions must be labeled with [Petition] in the title.

-External Chats-

These are rules/reg to the handling of external chats and their influence on the guild.


1. NO Guild or Gaia rules pertain to any external chats. Anything that violates Guild/Gaia rules in chat will be dealt with in chat and are not able to be reported to or dealt with in the guild.
2. NO decisions or discussions had in ANY external chat will count as official within the guild UNLESS previously announced and clearly marked and logged.
............Exception for handling threads and posts in mass guild trolling immediately.

1. Punishment/Action must be given for any listed rules. No lenience for friends, no harsher consequences for enemies. Harsher punishments may be issued if first approved by the Captain or Co-Captain of the guild.
............Violation: Crew Warning.
2. If you receive a PM or are asked a question, you must do SOMETHING. No ignoring or deleting the PM. If you don’t feel like answering the question or remedying the problem for whatever reason, forward it to someone who will.

4. The REASON for locking/moving a thread must be stated IN THE THREAD. Whether it be the “Edited by:” line in the first post, or a post in the thread stating your actions. When moving a thread, you must also state where the thread was moved FROM. A simple [forum posted in] -> [current forum] will do.
............Violation: Crew Warning.
5. If someone puts [DELETE] or [LOCK] in their thread title, you must take action!



6. Any post or thread deleted for violation of rules must be screenshot before it is deleted.
............Violation: Handled on a case-by-case basis.

8. Once you warn someone, you must add their name to the warning list.
............Violation: Crew Warning.
9. If a user wishes to view their record, they may request a crew member to retrieve the information for them. If a user requests information from the warning list, crew members are to copy and paste the information pertaining to that user and send it to them in a PM.
............Violation: Failure to provide a user with their record will result in a Crew Warning.
10. Crew status will be revoked if you violate TOS, have received two crew warnings, your term finishes, or under special circumstances. In the event that you have received two Crew Warnings, you will be temporarily suspended from duty, or permanently demoted from crew depending on the severity of your indiscretions.



11. DO NOT let the power go to your head. You’re still a normal person. Don’t expect people to bow down to your feet because you’re crew.
12. Crew has the option at ANY time to change the severity of a punishment if consent is given by the Captain or Co-Captains, or the entire crew feels that the change is necessary.
13. These rules may change at ANY given time. It is YOUR responsibility to check this thread for changes. The crew will do it's best to inform everyone of changes via Announcements and Stickies, but ignorance of the rules is never a valid excuse.

[GM Rules]


1. The GM will not get involved in the game except to post their own little comments. These comments must be neutral and may NOT give away anything about what’s actually going on in the game. This means NO giving away ANY information about who has what role to ANYONE.
............Violation: warning, and banning from hosting future games for twice the regular waiting period.
2. The GM must receive an explanation of each clue from people with positions in order to verify that the clue can be traced back to that person’s GAIA self.
3. If a GM is unable to post an update for any reason, but still wants to get an update up, they MAY allow another person of their choosing to write and/or post an update. However, the GM must inform the players of this if they can, and the person writing/posting the update MUST either drop out of the game, or be dead/jailed/inactive/not playing.
4. If a GM is unable to continue running the game, they MAY pass their duties on to another person of their choosing. However, the new GM must NOT be in the game, or must WITHDRAW themselves from the game within 24 hours of accepting the position. This change of GM must be announced to ALL players still in the game.
5. Any decision made by the GM pertaining to the game is FINAL!



6. In the event that no crew members are online and a GM spots serious drama, they MAY intervene, but they must follow ALL rules which apply to crew members, as well as post a thread in the crew sub-forum explaining their actions.
............Violation: If a GM intervenes without following the proper protocol, they will receive a Crew Warning.
7. A GM MAY NOT abuse their crew powers in any way, shape or form. This includes but is not limited to editing other people’s posts, deleting threads without permission, and moving threads as they please.
............Violation: Crew Warning.
8. In addition to receiving warnings for violation of GM rules, and regular guild rules, GM’s can also receive warnings for ANYTHING crew members can.
9. While a person is GM, every warning received during their GM-ship will count as a CREW warning. If a GM receives TWO crew warnings, they will be relieved from their duties and replaced by a crew member or a member appointed by crew who will finish the game.
10. Once a GM finishes a game, any crew warnings they received will remain as regular warnings on their record.


11. GMs are required to compile their game updates into a single thread in the Archives forum before they are demoted from crewship. They're welcome to begin the compilation any time during their reign, but it must be done before they finish.
12. To be eligible to submit an application for the position of GM, you must have participated in at least 2 games prior to your submission. This is to ensure that you have a firm enough grasp of how the game runs, and make sure you're dedicated to the guild enough that you won't forget about the game halfway through.
13. These rules may change at ANY given time. It is YOUR responsibility to check this thread for changes. The crew will do it's best to inform everyone of changes, but ignorance of the rules is never a valid excuse.
