Guild Charter

We are seeking new members that are a good fit to grow our guild. 

Phoenix has been a guild residing on the Whisperwind server since Burning Crusade, although several of us have known each other longer. 

Phoenix, at its core, is a group of friends with a sense of family and loyalty.

Our members come from all ages and backgrounds but all of us believe in a few very important principles:

Respect. Maturity. Fun. Humility. Independence.

Respect

It is expected that members will be respectful in their interaction and of each other's beliefs and opinions at all times regardless of agreement.  There is a human being at the other end of that keyboard.  The fact is I know nothing about them and their life experience.  Do not make any assumptions about who they are and what they believe.  Trust and friendship are earned over time just as in real life.

Maturity

Phoenix members are expected to comport themselves with a certain perspective, despite where they might land on the age continuum.  Maturity is the ability to think before acting, speaking.  I know there's a filter in the game, but I should first rely on the filter in my mind.

Fun

We (like to think) have a good sense of humor and encourage a positive and fun attitude.  We are, after all, playing a game.  As long as I am adhering to the 4 other principles, I can do whatever I want to make me happy.

 Humility

Each of us has our opinions, our goals, our pet peeves...and they are exactly as important as everyone else's.  Operating in a group sometimes means being willing to compromise on mine, for the sake of others'.  While cursing may not bother me, I have to allow that it might be a problem for others.  For that reason, while in guild chat and voice chat channels designated for raid, there should no cursing or offensive statements.

Independence

Although we promote an atmosphere of mutual assistance and we like to help each other out, we believe in a give and take approach.  I am free to play as I wish.  My dime, my time.  Interact as little or as much as I want with others.  No one will judge me.
