Well it is time for us to get ready to begin our journey through the world of raiding. First and foremost I want to thank each of you for joining our ranks and being apart of what I believe will be a premier raiding guild on Warriors of the Shadow. With that said this is the proposed future raid schedule.

Starting February 1, 2012

WEDNESDAY: 7:00PM PST to 11:00pm PST –We will be aiming for 16 man within the first 2 weeks, but we will start off with 8 man’s to get us ready.

THURSDAY: 7:00pm PST to 11:00pm PST

SUNDAY: 5:00pm PST to 9:00pm PST

The rest of the raid schedule will be up soon. If you are going to be at ANY of these raids, post in the forums HERE <CLICK THIS FOR THE THREAD> which day on the thread. Thanks and we'll see you there!

We hope that each of you had a wonderful holiday season. Now that we are through the holidays it is time to look ahead to our goals and the future of the guild. With that said I want to push you to visit the link to read and discuss our goals found HERE.

With that said, we look forward to seeing you in game, on the forums, in vent and spreading the power of the Empire through our DARK DOMINION!

ALL MEMBERS PLEASE READ

First and foremost I want to take the time to welcome each of you and thank you for making this guild your home since the release of Star Wars: The Old Republic. I think I speak for all us when I say that I have been waiting for this game to be released for many years, and for me it has exceeded my wildest expectations. Like many of you I came from many other MMO’s and had a very rich experience from years of guild and raid leadership. After over 4 years of leading a top raiding guild, I am prepared to say this with complete confidence;

Dark Dominion will be the NUMBER 1 Raid Guild on Warriors of the Shadow

This immediately demands the question, “How do we intend on accomplishing this goal?” Well the answer requires a significant amount of time, commitment, and solid leadership. The first step I will be making towards this goal is recruiting the best leaders from within our guild and from new recruits as we grow and refocus as we progress through SWTOR. To make things simple the following is expected of ALL MEMBERS regardless of your goals or intent within the guild.

1. 1.Application: All Guild Members are required to register and provide a complete application listed on the website under “Guild Recruitment”. Even if you are already in the guild and have status/rank we require all guild members to have an official application submitted. The purpose is so that we can get to know you better.

***SO THAT NO ONE CAN SAY “I DIDN’T KNOW”, ALL MEMBERS ARE REQUIRED TO BE REGISTERED ON THE WEBSITE NO LATER THAN JANUARY 4, 2012. MEMBERS WHO DO NOT REGISTER WILL BE NOTIFIED IN GAME OF PENDING REMOVAL FROM THE GUILD, THEN REMOVED WITHIN 48 HOURS OF THE NOTICE BEING GIVEN. (sorry for the caps, but I want to ensure that people are well aware of the requirement so there are NO surprises)***

2.    Member Activity: Guild members are expected to maintain active within the guild. This includes posting on our forums, in game activity, communicating absences, participating in events and overall being vocal in guild chat. In the next 2 weeks we will be adding DKP to the website; this will monitor guild raid/group PvP attendance and earned points for these events.

3.    Casual Members: Members within the guild who wish to remain but will not be participating in guild raiding or group PvP will still be expected to remain active, communicate and maintain a helpful presence to help others and the guild overall.

A guild charter and full outline of what will be expected for those who wish to raid the end game content will be discussed and outlined in the future. For the next few weeks our goal is going to be getting the right leadership into place as we prepare for taking the next step into becoming the BEST of the BEST on our server.

IF YOU WANT TO BECOME AN OFFICER WITHIN THE GUILD, then you first must register, post your application, then within the member forums post the officer application that you will see outlined within the forum. All applications for officers must be submitted by January 4, 2012 at 5pm CST. Officers will be chosen based on previous experience, passion for excellence, and overall disposition and leadership qualities. Additionally we will be having a "Future of the Guild" Meeting being held on January 3, 2012 at 7pm CST on Vent. I would like for all officer applicants to be there to discuss what the guild is going to look like and how it will operate in the future. PLEASE RSVP to the event in the forums if you will be attending.

I am very excited about our future and look forward to see how we come together to form a truly amazing group of talented and driven people who are the best at what we do. I will see you all in game!

To the Glory of the Empire!

Welcome, please take the time to register and join the discussion in our forums!

Each week I am going to feature someone from the guild who will be writing for the site on topics to include, their class, the game, progression or anything SW:TOR related. If you think you have the chops, then register, and look inside the member forums for more information! Oh and did I mention you'll be paid 50,000 credits? :)
