Notes on Inviting New Members.

Hail, comrades!

So now that Blizzard's new Looking For Guild interface is in full effect, our ranks of active warriors has grown considerably!  All ranks, from Scout up, will be continued to be empowered to actively recruit, and are encouraged to do so.  And while this has been quite successful, there have been a few questions, which I'll address with the following FAQ:

1. "Can I invite a friend/someone I just met/anyone?"  The answer to all these is; Yes.  As your High Chieftain, I alone retain the power to decide who can invite and who cannot.  As I've empowered the entire guild to recruit new active members, then the answer is splendidly clear.
2. "What class are we supposed to be looking for?"  Right now we have at least 1 active Heroic level Tank, and a couple of active Healers.  We could always use max level Tanks and Healers.  But more important than that, we want Active players.  I cannot stress it enough, the key word is Active.  I want us to be able to log on at any given time and find at least 2 other characters playing with whom we can group up with.  So look for Active players, level/class/roles are less important!
3. "How do I invite someone to the Guild?"  It is simple!  Just open a chat line, type:  /ginvite [name]
4. "I invited someone, but they can't talk in chat nor do they have access to the bank."   That is correct.  All new recruits are recruited at the lowest rank available; Peon.  This rank is generally punitive, and not for fit and able members of the Horde. Therefore, as the recruiter, you must promote them to our initiate rank; Scout.  To do this, open the Guild Window (J), and click on the character's name.  On their character window, you should see their rank with an arrow next to it. Click on it and select "Scout" from the list.   Once they are promoted to Scout, they will have full Guild Chat privileges and access to the Vault.  If you're still having problems, just let an Officer (Wolf Guard or above) or myself know.

So there you have it.  If there are any other questions, let me know.  Otherwise, go forth and bring us warriors!
