Arrow Of Light Open Recruitment Policies
As with our old policy, it is expected that an Arrow of Light will consider
carefully before recruiting a potential new member. This member must be held up
against our charter and seen as an Arrow of Light. This is not an act to be
taken lightly. If recruitment goes beyond what is healthy toward the premise of
this guild then restrictions may be re-instated at a guild meeting.
Recruitment Policy
Potential Arrows will require no letter of recommendation in our open
recruitment sessions. They are invited immediately and given a full Arrow of
Light membership. Upon posting on our web page they will receive full access to
all forums except the officer forums. And they will immediately upon invite
begin their 2 month trial period. All necessary information will be sent to said
recruit via e-mail from a Recruitment Officer.
Trial Period in Review
In summation, this is what must happen in order for a person to become an Arrow
of Light. (Example name for recruit being Talania) Talania has impressed an
Arrow with her desire to join our Guild. We happen to be in open recruitment!
What luck! She is instantly invited by one of the Recruitment Officers online at
that moment. Only a recruitment officer can invite a new recruit in open
recruitment times. If there is no recruitment officer online, said recruit will
be referred to a recruitment officer. By:
1) Starting a
thread in the open recruitment forum with recruits name.
2) Sending a
recruitment Officer an e-mail through EzBoards.
***( Both
these methods are extremely necessary to keep a well organized record of all
recruits)***
And one of them will then get to him/her A.S.A.P.
This trial period is to last no longer than 2 months from recruit's invite date.
At any time from invite to end of the 2 month probation period a veto may be
made to prevent his/her membership. This veto will be made to the current
Recruitment Officer(s) via a private e-mail, NOT in a community e-mail post.
This will ensure that the veto is presented in an impartial manner and the
issuer of the veto remains anonymous.
This trial
period will end in one of three ways:
1) A veto is
issued and cannot be resolved, resulting in disbandment of recruit.
2) The 2 strike
rule has been implemented
(further detail in following paragraph)
3) The 2 month
trail period is completed with no veto or strikes against them resulting in a
full membership! Till death do we part
2 Strike Rule
The two month probation period will involve a two strike rule. On the first
strike said recruit will receive ONE warning about behavior unsuitable for an
Arrow before they are disbanded arbitrarily.
This may be appealed to the leadership officers via private e-mail. Said e-mail
will then be posted in the officers forum. When the recruitment officers see
said letter they will take all their data on the person and add that to the
post. Then all officers will cast their votes. A simple yay and nay process
involving no further information being posted. At the end if more say yay your
back. Just as if more say nay your appeal was unsuccessful.
Required
New Recruits Meeting
At the end of the open recruitment event there will be a scheduled mandatory
meeting. This meeting will be held on our web page in the chat section at the
top of the board. In that meeting we will go over the chain of command, guild
charter and the open recruitment rules. All with the hopes of having all you
wonderful recruits fully understand us as we would hope to know and understand
