Recently our roster has become a bit of a ghost town. This is due to players going on vacation, moving, and just general real life issues. We are looking for people to help breathe life back into the guild. All members are immediately promoted to officer and are encouraged to take an active role in the guild. All suggestions are welcome and considered. We understand that there are new players out there and all levels are welcome. However, we ask that members do not spam Alliance or Guild chat looking for a free stuff. We are generally willing to assist and even provide items to our guildies, however we prefer that our guildies attempt to earn their way on their own and not just asks for handouts.
Who are We: HotU is a small, close-knit Luxon guild, for “mature” players wanting to enjoy their game play. We prefer that all new members be at least 18 years of age. This is due to the fact that some of the topics mentioned in guild chat could be classified as rated R. (Alliance chat conversations venture in the realm of X-Rated at times.) Exceptions can be made, depending on the maturity level of the person in question. We are the leaders of a 9-guild alliance. Our alliance is a part of our extended family and is another place people can go for help or company on missions, HA, GvG, AB or anything else. Other then that we just ask that all of our members feel free to participate in guild and alliance chat and that if anyone needs help, please ask. While the majority of our members are from the US, we have members from various parts of the world including Canada, The UK, and Brazil.
What we Do: We have members of all levels of expertise. We are mostly a PVE guild, however we do have some members that participate in HA, RA, TA and AB. We were doing weekly GvG battles, however due to inactivity, it’s been a bit harder to get these going. We would like to start these up again. We encourage participation by all of our guildies in these events. However, this is by no means a requirement and is really just a good chance for us to practice playing together. We care more about everyone having fun then we do about the end result. We do use a Vent Server whenever we do Guild Missions, Quests or Guild matches. This is not a requirement, but it is encouraged, as some of us are lazy typers.
What we Don’t Do: We will not tell you what class to play nor what build to run. We believe that everyone should be able to do what they feel comfortable doing. While we may offer suggestions, we will not be offended if you choose to go your own way. (NOTE: If you do go into Hard Mode dungeons in Eye of the North, HA or GvG, there may be specific builds needed based on the team. However, we will assist you as much as possible in obtaining these skills and work with you.) We will NOT censor Alliance or Guild chat. We believe in free speech and think everyone should be able to state what’s on his or her mind, as long as you are not affecting another person’s rights by being blatantly rude to them. (Please note that as leaders of the alliance we expect our members to be courteous to other allies.) We will NOT spell check every sentence you type. We have guild members from various parts of the world and we do not expect everyone to spell or speak the same.
Origins: We started this guild after experiencing dissatisfaction with the way the guild leader, of our former guild, started to run things. All of the Co-Founders of HotU were seeking a group of people that enjoyed playing with one another and didn’t want to get caught up in a lot of rules and restrictions. We believe life is too short to be caught up in drama for an online game. Games are made to be fun, not another source of stress and aggravation.
Our Vision: A guild of the people, for the people. We believe that every member should have a voice. Any suggestions or ideas by our members are considered and ultimately decided on by a collective vote of the Co-Founders. All members are promoted to Officers. This is to encourage all of our members to recruit their friends and family to further enrich our guild environment. This is also done to encourage members to take an active role in the guild and alliance. We all have real lives outside of the game, so it is important that we all rely on each other to make a great guild. The Co-Founders of the guild take turns being leader so that there is not one Dictator of the whole guild.
Alliance: We are currently the Alliance leaders of a 9-guild alliance. Our alliance has become an extended family for us. While HotU generally does more PvE, there are other members of the alliance that can be called upon for PvP. For PvP, we do prefer all members login to Vent as it makes organizing builds and calling spikes MUCH easier. Alliance chat can get VERY vulgar. The guilds in our alliance joined because they didn’t want to be limited on what can or cannot be said in alliance chat. We do have space for one more guild in the alliance so if you are a guild leader and interested in joining please PM me either here or in game (Riana Wynd) and we can discuss this further. Though HotU switches out Guild Leaders, I have taken responsibility of the alliance. So if you have any questions let me know.
The eight other guilds in our alliance are:
Stewards of the Ancient Rites Star]
The Cult of Bog [Bog]
The Nights Watch [Crow]
Soldiers of Zeus [SoZ]
The Rejectz [Rezz]
Ice Cold Apes Inc [ICE]
The Decepticons [EVIL]
Oh Gawd Dont Do Dat Btch Dats A [NoNo]
PM me either here or in game (Riana Wynd) if you are interested in joining.
Hordes of the Underworld [HotU] is seeking new active guildies
