Skully's XBones
 

We are an up and coming guild of the awesome type. We are known as a "helping guild". We don't just help each other, but we try to help all pirates, big and small.

I hope we can use this forum as a place to exchange ideas, comments, suggestions, and Fun!


:buds:

Good luck with your guild :)

great job Skully! Thanks for giving us a place to share our guild adventures! woohoo! :dancetl6:

Don't ye forget me bucko we also the toughest guild in these here seas in addition to be the most helpful arrrr.

Best of luck with your guild! Hope it goes well!

Legendary leader of the Xbones. Fearless and mighty she is. Just because she is small, she carries big weapons and knowledge. She wants to help everyone she can. Sometimes it's impossible, but she tries.

She thinks that after a long search for the perfect guild, she has found it. The pirates that have joined are mighty and fearless as well. They share her feelings on helping fellow pirates defeat Jolly Roger and his undead minions as well as achieving confidence in the game play.

Three pirates in a "hot tub"

Skully, I put this together rather quicky last night just to give you an idea.
Everything can be modified to your liking (letters, colors, etc)
I have a cheezy little program so I have to work with what I have.
Hopefully someone has photoshop and can make something really nice!
I think Plank mentioned he has photoshop.
Anyways let me know what you think??

Looks like ye mates have a great start on this guild. Keep up the good work.

Here are a few more samples - I don't think I can sharpen the last one becasue the TEXT F/X is designed to make it look that way - I'll try

Here are most of the rules we discussed last night; I may have missed a few.
Please add, change, delete at your discretion; this is just something to get us started! :dancetl6:

Guild Rules
• Respect the Code
• Respect all pirates inside or outside of guild – common courtesy
• Help other pirates when at all possible – if you are busy please let them know
• Please ask before you teleport – you may be teleporting into a danger zone (high level enemy) also common courtesy
• No harsh language or pirate bashing – there may be young pirates about – we don’t want anyone’s feeling hurt – also Disney Code of Conduct
• If there is a complaint please bring it to the attention of the GM – a meeting will be held to discuss and determine the outcome of the matter
• Please do not ask or harass the GM to make you an Officer – your actions will determine your candidacy
• Officer Candidacy:
o A pirate must be at least level 25 or higher to be considered
o A pirate must display a willingness to help other pirates
o A pirate must display proper conduct at all times – Respect the Code
o All Officers candidates will be voted on by the GM and other Officers – the final decision rest with the GM
• Officers Responsibility:
o Respect the Code
o Assist the GM in maintaining order in the guild
o Help other pirates whenever possible
o Recruit new pirates low & high level – Basic & Unlimited
o Explain the guild rules to all new pirates

I really like the last one. It is great. The one that says KEEPER OF THE CODE

GUILD MOTTO: We are a helping guild. We pledge to help each other achieve strength and power against the Undead, Navy, EITC, and Jolly Roger. We also strive to encourage fellow pirates to develop confidence in themselves by trying new things.:bookishfj7:

GUILD RESPONSIBLITY:
.Abide all guild rules
.Talk up the guild to your friends to help get new members.
.HAVE FUN!!!!:buds:


GUILD RULES::SkullBullet1:
1. Always show respect to all pirates inside and outside the guild. Remember, treat others the way you want to be treated.

2. Courtesy is part of the Pirate Code. Don't rep steal unless invited to share the fight.

3. Foul language, distasteful actions or pirate bashing will not be tolerated. After a single warning of such behavior you will be subject to disciplinary action. Remember there may be young pirates about and we don't want anyone's feelings hurt. It is also the Disney Code of Conduct.

4. Always help each other. Share in the fun by doing things together. The Caribbean can be a lonely place. If you are busy, please let them know

*5. You must ask permission to teleport to another player in the guild unless you are responding to a call for help or have been invited to join another player. Whispering for permission to teleport will not be answered.

6. Complaints of fellow players may be communicated to an officer. If an officer is the subject of the complaint, report to another officer or guild master. Details will be given at a hearing of the disciplinary board.

7. New officers must be nominated by your fellow players and/or officers and MUST BE a Level 25 or higher. A willingness to help others plays a big part. Seniority and activity in the guild will also be a factor. The player will be allowed to speak at an officers meeting explaining why they could help the guild by becoming an officer. The officers will then vote. If voted yes, the player will be placed on a waiting list. A new officer is made for every 10 new members we get. (Remember: it will only hurt your chances of being an officer if you keep asking.)

*8. The need for help must be communicated only in the guild chat. If help is needed because you are knocked out, you must type HELP DOWN in the guild chat. If you need help on a quest or other than being knocked out, HELP WITH should be typed in the guild chat. Whispering for help will not be answered.

OFFICERS' RESPONSIBILITY:pirate6:
.Respect the code
.Assist the GM in maintaining order in the guild
.Help other pirates whenever possible
.If you leave your keyboard, you must type AFK in the guild chat.
.Serve on the Disciplinary Committee and new officers' hearing.
.Help plan events for the guild to do.
.Recruit new pirates - low and high levels - equal amounts of Basic and Unlimited
.You must explain the guild rules to all new pirates.

All violations of the rules will be brought before the disciplinary committee. Discipline could be up to booting from guild and banned from playing POTC.:degen:

Is there a chance to have when meetings and such will be announced on here? Also, how do you do screen shots and post them? That's pretty neat stuff!!!

screen shots are posted using a photo hosting site or some kind of web site such as photobucket or your own web page hosting site.

I got booted off during our gathering. Not sure what's going on but now I can't log in (if this posts within a few minutes)...

love it samuel.. good job

With the unwelcome drama that has occured with members of the guild which I held in great respects leaving, I to have stepped down. I prefer NOT to be part of a guild where everyone can not get along. I have since joined another where everyone I have met has been together for a long time, and is certain to remain. I appologize for any inconvience, but this is in my better judgement. I am sure that when the word is spread about the actions that were given last night (before I was booted from the game to get 100% details) nobody will have any disagreement with my decision. I wish things were different, but there is ABSOLUTLEY no reason for what occured. Skully, thank you for making me feel welcome as well as the other guildmates and officers. It was a great journey while it lasted and I hope to see you sometime at an invasion... Best of luck with the game as well as life in general.

Ryan
aka: Walkin D Plank

wow hate to see yea leave us Walkin and wish there was something I could have done to help out but not going to beg you to stay, good luck with the new guild and will be seeing you around.

I must have missed something, could have been when I was watching tv and not reading the chat log. All I know is when someone cries out "help" I click the name and if I see they are in the black I go to them to revive and will often stick around healing them for awhile.

Walkin
 

Please contact me either here or online and tell me what's going on.

I don't want to lose such a valuable player and officer.






Skully

Good times!

A Sad Day
 

Yesterday, Sunday, August 8, 2010, one of our trusted officers completely deleted all the members of Skully's Xbones. We don't know why this was done.

If anyone see someone looking for our guild, please have them contact me here on the forum or on the game.

We are actively trying to find our missing family


Skully

Sorry to hear about your guild, it's sad how low some people can go :(

If you need any help, I'm sure a lot of the members on this forum would assist you.

Thanks for the kind words Luckie and Sven we will do our best to bring our family back together and track down this traitor.

Thanks Luckie & Sven! Your support is greatly appreciated as we endeavor to find our missing family!

Aye, may this bilge rat be brought to justice swiftly!

I'll definitely look out for any missing members of yours! You wouldn't happen to have an old list of all the members, would you? That way we could see if any of the unguilded people we see was a part of your guild. Best of luck on bringing the guild back mates!

This keeps happening since day one. I wonder when POTCO will change the guilds structure.

Look at the most recent updates TSC. They have, they just haven't put them into live yet. Methinks this is a great excuse to finish up the bugs they have in test and get the new system out NOW.

Remember that I was out for a week Crest? I still need to read several threads. But thanks for pointing that out.

I wish you good luck in your guild recovery.

Make sure that :degen: will happen to him. :)

Skully's Birthday Surprise
 

Little late on posting this giving what has happened recently but HAPPY BIRTHDAY SKULLY!!!!!! :buds:

Happy Birthday mate!

Happy birthday!

Thanks Everyone
 

especially to my first officer Samuel Sword. It was a great surprise to have my guild family help me celebrate my birthday.

And Shame on you Samuel. Had I known you were taking pictures I would have fixed my hair.


Skully:laughks2:

Happy Birthday Skully! :buds:

We Are Still Around
 

After our turn of events a couple weeks ago, we are stilll alive and coming back better than ever.

We have recovered most of our most active members and brought them back into the family.

We are still on the look out for any of our missing guild members and have actively started recruiting again.

I want to thank all of my officers for their hard work getting our family back together. Without them I'm afraid the Xbones would have died.

Also a BIG thank you to my first officer Samuel Swords who had befriended a lot of the members and it made it easy to recover them.


Skully:buds:

Glad to hear you've managed to recover a lot of your members :)
