I don't propose to have a huge list of rules....after all we are all here to have fun, but I think a few basic points should be observed. These rules will be amended as and when the need arises.
The Guild is its members. This means taking an active part in the Guild, joining in events, grouping with other Guildies on a fairly regular basis, helping others with quests, doing what you can to help the Guild as a whole. That does not exclude soloing, grouping with others, or not jumping in to help every person who asks. It is about finding the right balance to benefit you and the Guild. And never forget - WoW is a game. Lets have fun, create moderate amounts of mayhem, and drink more beer!
Also never forget that you carry the Guild's Name above your head at all times, conduct yourself in a manner which will earn respect from your fellow players, not contempt. Be proud of being a member of GoodFellas Inc. Be polite, both to Guildies and fellow travellers. Be a nice person - even if this means you have to role-play the whole time! (We're sure you can be evil and nice at the same time...) And don't forget - it's a game, have fun, don't spam, don't ninja-loot, don't kill steal, don't get caught up in abusive arguments and don't intentionally train.
Any member who does not play within Blizzards policies and Guild Rules will be removed from the Guild, as this can damage a Guild's reputation. Conversely, if another player acts poorly toward you, then try politely asking them to stop or reach a compromise, and if that doesn't work, try speaking with one of their Guild's Officers. There is never an excuse for dealing with like by like. Have self-respect. No begging in guild chat, and especially not in ooc/shout etc. By all means ask for help when you need help, but make the distinction. If it is not immediately urgent, try the forums. For quest assistance, do some research, plan a date and time, and ask for help from people via a post on this blog. It is easier to help those who help themselves in this respect.
Please do not auction via guild chat - that is what the trade board is for. Requesting services (trade skills, etc) - Requests should be polite and specific where possible. Guild members are under no obligation to fulfil the requests, however if they are not busy and have the time to spare, then providing assistance is encouraged. These should be non-exploitative - neither overcharging a guild member nor making a profit from another's good will. If a Guildie offers you something cheaply, buy it to use it, not to sell it on elsewhere. If no response to your request is received in guildchat, then direct /tells should not be used. By all means repeat the request after a polite amount of time but do not spam.
Now go and have fun,

Hi Goodfellas!
I think we should all start by knowing our own roles in the group. In order to do that, I strongly advice you to read this article:

We should all talk after reading it :)
Greetings!

Welcome to our very own guild blog. As this is the first time I have ever tried this kind of thing please excuse any mistakes. As soon as I figure it all out we will have a much better way to keep in touch with what is going on in GoodFellas.
