Guild Member Houses

Overview

Member Houses are member groups within 3 of the major time zones.

By dividing our members into these groups all members have a more clear approach to when, who, and how to contribute to achieve guild goals and better their environment.

Each House has a rank structure that ensures leadership in all content areas and representation of specific member groups in guild decision making and resource distribution.

THE MAIN FOCUS OF HOUSES ARE TO AID IN ADDRESSING AND MEETING MEMBER NEEDS.

How to decide your Member House

Focus on the time zone where you will be doing the bulk of your group-based activities i.e. PvP, Operations, etc.

For those that play through other or all time zones, decide what time you would be able to do daily Operations with the same people for example

Misconceptions

A Member House does not limit who you can play with in guild, when you can play, or when you can participate in group activities.

While playing in a time zone that is not your house you can still participate in all activities as a full guild member.

No House takes priority over another house, because each House has it's own Representatives to call on overall guild support to meet house needs.
