Diablo II vs World of Warcraft

[Jim]

This is why in the final version, if I buy it, I will not be running any LL guilds.  It will be up to you guys to decide whether to start one and who gets to be in it (remember that a single bad player can wreck the reputation of the whole group!).  I think some people are expecting me to start an LL game in retail, simply because I happen to be running the beta ones on the beta server.

Hi

Sorry to here that, LL is more than just a forum to me, it is a place where Honor is placed at the Top of each players Creed. This is a "Legit Players" hangout. That is why I joined Epik in Asherons Call & Angles of Hell gaming guild in Diablo:

Epik Honor Code

(This Code is not intended to be all-inclusive. It should, however, prove to be guidance enough for all who would call themselves EpiK. Looking for "grey-areas" or "loopholes" in this code is in itself a violation.)

I. EpiK members will be honest in word and deed. Lying and/or cheating on trades are examples of unacceptable actions.

II. Members will recognize and honor lines which their fellow players have started at any spawn location.


In the event that there is a line in place that is already being disregarded by another player, honoring the line would allow for Free-For-All tactics being used as long as the loot was then distributed fairly amongst those in the line.

III. Members will follow the game code of conduct, and are expected to go beyond it.

Specifically, members will not use vulgar or obscene language in open chat or when trying to resolve issues with non-clan members in-game. Whenever you're tempted, remember that invisible game sentinels could be watching at any time.

IV. Disputes or questions of honor will be handled in the following manner, with in-game communication being preferred over board posts:

A. First, the first common patron in the chain of the individual(s) involved will be approached to resolve the issue.

B. The clan sentinel is the next person who should be consulted to resolve the issue.

C. If neither of the above options are available, or are unacceptable for some reason, a message will be posted to the "Arbitration" board.


V. PK Guidelines are posted on the PK Rules page.
As an EpiK PK, you are required to maintain the spirit of the clan. Honor is still the name of the game.

VI. Macros - Macroing as a general rule is frowned upon. However we realize that macroing is here to stay and in many cases are used to benefit the community as a whole. For that reason, here is EpiK's position on Macros:


A. Trade Macros - Trade macros are acceptable in any form.
B. Magic Macros - Magic Macros are acceptable in low-traffic areas. Please do not go into meeting halls and run a macro all night long, as it is irritating to the people who are there.

C. Combat Macros - Combat macros are not acceptable, period.


VII. Final Resolution - All disciplinary decisions will be made by majority vote of the council, and will be promply executed. Failure of a patron to comply with council decision will result in further disciplinary action by the council.
Actions that can be considered by the council include:

   1. Private reprimand.
   2. Public reprimand.
   3. Public repentence by the "convicted."
   4. Restriction from private clan areas or from quest participation for an agreed upon time.
   5. In-game fines in pyreals and/or property.
   6. Expulsion from the clan.

Angles of Hell Honor Code

FUN. We Have Fun! We seek to increase the fun of other players.

RESPECT. We have and show respect to all other gamers, in and out of the guild. We treat others as we expect to be treated. We are polite.

FAIRNESS. We promote fairness in your dealings with others. We don't "CHEAT" or use unfair methods to gain advantage over other gamers.

MATURITY. We remember our organization is "mixed company", young and old, male and female; we behave accordingly. We are tolerant of those who sometimes forget to do so.

INTEGRITY. Some games require us to self-police to maintain game integrity. We are careful to maintain our protected areas. We are honest. We don't take what isn't ours.

TEAMWORK. Our group was founded to promote "cooperative" play, where different abilities among players create a stronger whole. To us, a well-functioning team is the funnest play of all.

Our additional rules for those who Need Them Spelled Out:

Treat the principles as "general rules", applying to games, message boards, and chatting.

Don't give our passwords out where non-members can see them.
Maturity refers to offensive or inappropriate language or conversations.
In general, we expect our members to continue to maintain our principles outside of our group. Outside behavior still reflects upon the honor of our guild.
