Behavior in SWG

* This topic is for both members in SancT, and to other players in Star Wars Galaxies *

 

How do I behave while playing? That is a question which we all have to ask ourselves at one point. Do you want to be known as an intelligent and wise person, or as a *bad word*y and rude person?

 

*bad word*y/cool & *bad word*y/cool//rude persons:

I would say this is a behavior that is more childish; you dont seem like a calm and relaxed person, which in turn give you no respect in most communities. When you are trying to pretend to be Han Solo; all tough and all.. it might swing the other way, a good friend might become offended and he/she is no longer your friend. Most people will think of you as a minor, though there are those who can be good/mature persons while being *bad word*y, because they know where the line goes (what is allowed to do/say, and what is not allowed to do/say). Myself have meet a great deal *bad word*y persons in my year on SWG, and most of them ended up on my ignorelist cuz they either /slap me or /laugh Shawkorrr or other types of rude acts when I seriously was not in a good mood for such bs! I have nothing against cool people :dance: as long as they respect who I am (which in turn gives them a + in my notebook), and they know not to offend me or my friends.

 

Think before you act!

 

Wise & intelligent players:

These are the ones that got friends all over the game because they know how to respect others and their wishes.. you learn how to bend/adapt to your current situation/environment. Like in PvP, a wise person would not send hate tells only because he got pwnd, he would rather say "gf" and nothing more. These types of players are polite to most people.. and if I'm not mistaken, /addignore is a common thing to use (removes all the ***holes from speaking to you). Commands like /deepbow /adjust /hug /wookieehug /smile etc are common for the more polite & wise person.

 

SancT has a lot of great and wise people. Look at the guild today; it is like a shining star on the heavens :worship: I focus on quality players, and those who do not behave or fit the SancT member profile will not enter this guild, or they most likely end up getting the boot.

 

.. SancTuarY Forever!!!

 

We learn all the time in this game, always something new happening. Lately "I know everything" have been a common saying for those who have only played for some months, and I must say that is simply wrong. You do not know it all. I've been playing this for 1 year and 3 months, and I still dont know everything.. so next time you say "I know this, I know everything", make sure you know it! Places like Mos Eisley are filled with "wise" people who have played for a week or two :wrong:

 

Independent players:

Being independent in SancT is important. For instance, before you start doing a big/hard quest, you should go and check out forums, google.com, and other search engines for information/guides to the quest you are planning on doing. You may want to call for backup from the guild & friends, but do not expect them to do all the hard work :) In the early days of SWG there was not much helping; you were perhaps given a gun and some buffs for free, then being send out in the galaxy on our own, forcing us to become more independent. I spend my first months more or less grinding on Naboo, then continued on to Lok (which was a dangerous place back then for a newbie). These days, with the current quest grinding system this is getting harder and harder to do solo, but it is still possible. Newbies ask too many questions these days, instead of trying to find more information on the world wide web (www) and try to find ways to solo it? Reading guides is a must..

 

"There is no shame asking for help, but remember to be patient.."

 

Veterans & newbies begging:

One this which I simply can't stand is begging from newbie players in Mos Eisley, Coronet and other places.. *sigh*

Veterans are tired of not being able to play this game like they used to because they always get questions from newbies who want more and more and more..? "Can you get me a super-duper flamethrower?" "Can you tip me 10k?" "Could you get me this and that and everything in this galaxy.. for free?" .. I have had so many complaints regarding begging and spoiled newbies, from my friends all over the galaxy, both imperials and rebels, so that I can't even remember who said what. They are tired of not being able to play this game, concentrating on their toon. Remember the veterans are also here to play, not being forced to help everybody who asks..

 

Shawkorrr and helping:

As most of you know, I have been helping out alot the last couple of months; getting people über loot and what not. I am a full temp Jedi with everything I need in SWG, thus I help others.. BUT remember there are those who got things to do on their toon and can't always help. Since things are hard irl atm, cuz I started working, I will not be able to help as much as I used to do. So I think those who are in need of help should grind to lvl 90 before asking me to take them on a lvl 90 quest to get good loot, though if I got the time, I will ofcourse join in a group :) *hugs all*

 

Getting good or rare loot:

Don't ask people to get it for you unless you are sure you can survive through the entire quest with those who you are with. No lvl 50 should go to Hk to get some good or rare loot unless they got a bunch of medics to rez them..

 

"Grinding to level 90 is a must these days.."

 

Becoming Admin:

When I look for possible admins, I am looking for mature people who knows how to behave in guildchat and other types of communications. *bad word*y or rude people will not get enough respect in order for me to even considering them to become admins. It is required that you have been a member of SancT Guild for 5-6 months, and have helped consistantly.

 

We in SancT live by our member guidelines (some of them are mentioned here in this topic). Without these guidelines we would not have the SancT we have today; best mature guild around! Every single member must live by, and respect these rules.

 

Cursing:

Cursing leads nowhere (check out SancT member guideline #1 for further information about verbal abuse) ;)

 

I would like to say that serving this guild with these fine member we have today is a great honor! We are doing great, we are the best, we are strongest, we are .. SancT! So let us continue our great adventures and keep up the good work! :hug:

 

"I'm asking people to think before they act.."

 

Thank you for reading this.

 

*salute*

One of the main things that allowed us to be respected by the respectable, and hated by the A-holes, was the fact that we always tried our best as admins and as a guild to respect others.

 

SancT has become a guild that has transcended its leadership and ultimately became an exemplification, in itself, amongst most of the Wanderhome community, defined and remembered for fiercely trying to uphold a certain moral standard, while at the same time, and sometimes literally, roaring at the opposition who'd rather bring drama for the sake of drama to our forums and in-game, and disrepect some of the finest members of our gaming community. In some Instances these people would actually THREATEN others with that disrespect, as we have seen w/ the more notorious A-holes within our community, with whom I will keep my mouth clean and not repeat.

 

Keeping our guidelines first and foremost provides all of us a place in which we can log into, away from our Real Lives, and gives an IMMEDIATE community within which we can enjoy ourselves and the game we choose to play.

 

I totally agree w/ Shawkorrr's comments above, and his natural attitude towards community, and respect are the main reasons why I wanted him to lead this guild in my absence.

 

Hopefully the force will be w/ SancTuarY in Shawkorrr's passing and allow us to find yet another hard working leader to guide this guilds future.

 

In the meantime lets enjoy what we have and try to understand why Shaw posted what he posted and help SancT and the rebellion grow stronger, as best we can. :woot:

 

EDIT: and no shaw is not leaving lol....was just a complement. :P

Well said, i would also point out that this one

 

Dont Underestimate others.

ok i have two toons, Ke' and Rit. both are under level 50 (my foult) Ke' is about level 26 and Rit is 46 now expshaly when on Ke' do you know how many /tells, /say i get from the *bad word*y kids who are level 90 makeing fun of me... (probably half the reson why you see me less often now :( )

Like ok if i was a "noobie" thats fine.. but ive been around longer than half thos cry babys... pre NGE i Masterd almost every profeshon. ive been level 80 so many times ive lost count, (about 30ish) ive done Corvet runs, i have an Av-21 while i am no were near a Vet like Shawkorrr but i still (as well as every other person) deserve respect!

Ummm. Did I miss something? I know Shaw was changing his hours due to RL conflicts, but it was not communicated to me that he was "passing". What does this mean in layman's terms?

 

I am not asking for any addtional responsibility, either. I just would like to know if the big Wook will be around..

:unsure:

I will start university in August 2006.. so I will most likely leave cuz this is my first year at uni, ever, and I want to do good; it is my future we are talking about ;)

 

Leaving SWG and SancT is not an option at this point, but when summer comes, then I will have to move back to where I grew up, on the country, and all that.. thus time on SWG will be limited.

 

I'll be around :H5:

Yeah, it is amazing to watch all the crap that is being thrown out in the air in cnet :wrong: some people sure do not know how to behave at all, they should read this topic, that's for sure! <_<

 

Too much /flaming around these days!

 

I heard from somebody in RW he was considering leaving the server because of people simply do not know how to behave on Wanderhome! :cussing: too many haters..

"In the early days of SWG there was not much helping"

 

 

I stopped reading right there... just to say before I forget because I don't have much time right now, that is completely untrue.. the early days of SWG everyone helped each other with everything. it was great. sure there were assholes here and there but as the game progressed ya know people would never help each other out I mean like the first whlie people would train each other fine and all that and then well.. I'm not gonna rant about everything but people who have been here know what i'm talking about and can explain a lot better than meee..umm im gonna read the rest now lol

Well in my past I have done some things I might have not been quite proud of hehe. But I will say this...I was and still am a *bad word*y/show off/arrogant/mature person. That I may be now but in the past I was a *bad word*y/A hole and hung around that croud alot :(. I have been offen wonering.....why?.......well the answer is simple. people play or live by rolemodels or by the influence of others around them. Its kind of an automatic phsycological twitch that we tend to do. That being said per say If you hang around with alot of A-holes then YES! you too will join the croud. There are some occasions that this is not true in fact. Anyways Right to the point lol. SancTuary's FOUNDATION is based on respective maturity in the MMOG world and out of hopefully :P. AND RULE # 1 ppls lol (THINK) before you do. I can not stress that enough! If you find yourself a little ticked off from people that are just plain rude then /addignore /logout and take 5 minutes then think it out what to do. Trust me heh I have been in this situation before IT WORKS :D. Simple fact is I think that SancTuary is all about being a role model guild filled with leaders that people can look up to. Now that my friends is the truth on how to have a successful guild. Remember my fellow Sanctuarians you represent us! Its all about contributing to the game and making games in general an acceptable community to play in. Sometimes there are bad apples like this guy here :( I suggest ignore em don't say anything back to them because you never know he might be a lazy bastage and cant get credits or he may be having a bad day. I really do hope this gets out to some of you lol. So that maybe you could learn this in 3 minutes which it took me waaaaaay longer to understand that that is true Pwnage right there........Thats how guilds gain TRUE respect.

Good luck people-- We are all counting on you :) oh and btw We pwndizzle anyways :P lol

In swg i have seen people say things to other players just cause of thier level. Like me and Nam were hunting fistacuffs and Nam was the main person that hunted him and chased him around, he did basically all the work of tracking and finding, but when we kill him he sends Nam the hate tells just prolly cause he is a lvl 80, like "you noob you did no work at all", at least i think it went like that and the tell he sent me had nothing to do with that at all, he started telling me stories of him pre-nge :| which i didnt care about, when it was i the one that killed him. it just makes no sense......plus why would i want to hear a storie about you running pre-nge????

Blast from the past, but still important to read today.

 

/bumpity

This thread needs some updating to reflect our current game, IMO.

 

:peace:
