Im leaving this one up to you long term players. Myself have nearly 7 years under my belt for diablo 2 and Lod. I am Def bumping up the req's for guild entry. But with most players playing on realms scattered across the world i feel like i will need help from just about everyone in guild to check out these "New" Players/members
Post here Ideas and Requirements that you would like to see implemented. THe current list is mostly all Forum Based Req's. Now that d3 is upon us We need to start recruiting some stronger players. I know dedication to game playing will pick up upon d3 release so that does not worry me.
We need players who have mastered at least a class or 2 If not all of them like our member Thasador.
We need players like Ferret who Endlessly Grinds to Get our guilds name on top of that ladder( 3 ladders in a row!)
We need soldiers like NecroNergal who come to help at the drop of a hat without asking questions in game.
We need Generals Like Elfen Lied to help let us know what we are up against Lore wise, and who give us a broader understanding of what our purpose is.
So Until We know how the realm System is going to work in d3. We need Ways to test member abilities in game. Im thinking the council Can put our heads together and come up with a written Q/A test. Which asked Questions (some lore wise) but the majority regarding certain builds and game play questions.
EXP. True or False. You CAN teleport using the Left Mouse button in d2 LOD so long as the skill is assigned to the left mouse skill list?
The answer is false.
We need questions like these. Which are somewhat detailed questions that most people who actually play the game should know. Regarding a variety of popular builds and overall gameplay questions.
exp. What level must you be to complete the "Ancients Quest" in act 5 In the nightmare difficulty without being grushed?
If the participants score a 80% or higher(depending on what we decide on) they will have successfully past the first part of guild approval. the next test would be a display of in game skills. This is where the majority of the members come in. Myself. I can judge the Us west Hardcore ladder and non ladder entry req's in game test. I can also test the US west Non Ladder Softcore test (i have 1 high char left) But that leaves quite a few realms open without Skill tester mods. I would need a few people to sign up to be skill tester mods for the US west Softcore Ladder realms. And if possible a few of you who have chars in East could help the clan by skill testing guild applicants on those realms.
This will greatly improve the knowledge and skill of our member base. Thus improving the guild as a whole. Though many applicants will be turned away. They can reapply at a later date.
I have cleaned my in box completely. I need you guys as members to PM me quality questions for the Written Q/A test. They can Be true or false. Multiple choice. Or Straight questions like my ancients question is above(the answer is level 40 btw)
Please members dont send me muliple pms. please try to each think about 2-5 questions and send them via 1 pm. Unless you later think of a really good question. Myself and the other council members will sort these out via MSN messenger. and chose the best 20 or so questions. The questions can be about Lore, Skill placement, Tech Questions or really anything that someone familiar with the game would know. Please no questions that can be easily looked up on battle.net Such as runeword combos and the likes.
Thanks guys
Also Post in game skills test req's u think should be implemented in this thread. Maybe a lvl 1 race to andy. within 30 min? (id have to test the timing on that one to make it challenging yet not impossible). Or dueling one of our PVP members(softcore realm)
So like i said pm me those questions. And Post in this thread in game skill test's u guys think would be applicable and help to gauge the skills of a said player.
And remember this is your guild. Take pride in that and know that when d3 comes out we will have such an advantage over everyone because of this work now.
in level requirements i think they should have atleast 1 character 90 or above
No. I never got above 90, I didn't see the need to go above level requirements for an item, in which case for me was 88. I had a level 76 who was able to destroy higher levels. I could have easily gone a higher level, but I spent my time with new characters.

It's the decisions you make when you have no time to make them that define who you are.
if this guild is for diablo 3, then maybe you shouldnt be judging people on diablo 2... if its a diablo 2 guild then meet people in game to see if they know what their doing.
To have played Diablo 1. Yes I think that should be a requirement. I grow tired of seeing posts (in general) where people say oh sorry/whoops never played that game.
Diablo one is the progenitor of our soul reason for existing, it should be as much a part of this clan Diablo 2
I would rattle of a bunch of "learn the lore" requirements, but not everyone talks the time out of there busy PKing schedule to talk to the NPCs are read every book or moldy tome they happen by. So sad.

-Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. To obtain, something of equal value must be lost. That is alchemy's First Law of Equivalent Exchange. In those days, we really believed that to be the world's one, and only, truth.
I agree with Elfen and Warlord, you should have played the original game and maybe not have a level 90 ladder character yet but at least a non-ladder one.

Dream as if you'll live forever, and live as if you'll die today. "James Dean"
i didnt play diablo one (through the whole game) so that might be a problem...
level 1-90 doesn't take very long.. imo 95+ seems VERY fair.
if they don't want to show that dedication to the guild, they shouldnt be in it.
and i will beat d1 if asked to.

We gotta make a change...
It's time for us as a people to start makin' some changes.
Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live
and let's change the way we treat each other.
You see the old way wasn't working so it's on us to do
what we gotta do, to survive. Tupac Shakur

I think you should have to have been in this forum before all the hype brought noobs - like march 2008 or so.
Also, I have completed many characters in the past, but had the account expire. I dont see this is fair as we TOOK the time to level a lot of characters, but since we had to take a break for whatever reason, we shouldn't be allowed to be in the guild.
Maybe you should have to prove you have a sense of honor and respect, unlike most of these childish boobs who scurry their way across the forums like Mijn said. Treat the forums like it is your platoon and act like a damn soldier! I wunna see some 'Sir Yes, Sir!'s thrown around every once in a while! I want the people who aren't in the guild to act as civilians and for the members of the guild to act like they have a pair and keep the peace whether they have forum control or not.

idk if the teleport type question is good. why? because i didnt know it however i know it when i play, if u know what i mean
anyways i think the getting to andy in 30 min (or whatever time) is a fantastic idea, and im up for timing it if you need.
i also think it would be a good idea to have a question like: what are all the skill quests in the game? ie den, rad, bird, lam essens, izzy, anya
i also think that just baaling with the candidate would be a good idea, to just get a feel for how they play. like if they are a hammerdin, do they use redemption, and cleanse, or do they just pot and hammer etc.
I also think its important for them to have at least one character at level 90
well, i have seen other clans on diablo 2. and have heard of them doing like a tornament type thing. like pvp battle. we could get people who want to join into a 6 way free for all and the top half get to join and the other half would have to try agian next time. but this would only be for diablo. and i know there are people on wow who join and dont play diablo 2. but it just a suggestion.
maybe if you want to stick with the time thing. you could see who could finish norm lvl starting from lvl 1. and they would have to complete it in a certian amount of time. or maybe just have 1 member of sick follow them on there jorney through the forces of evil. and if there more then 1 then the top one gets in or something.

If you can't kill Andy in under 3 minutes on Hell, we've got a problem.
I think you should have a PvP tournament with people 90 and under. If you're above level 90 you should just be able to be in automatically (as long as you're a member of the forums).
