the guild home page just has general information. at times, it might have information about ongoing events, which you can find under the "what's going on" section. check there often so you don't miss any awesome contests or activities! you can also find the donation box at the bottom of the page (see "Donations" section below).
♥ Club Forum ♥
in the club forum, you will, of course, find this thread, along with "The Generous People List," where people who have donated to the guild are listed.
you'll also see "The Introductions Thread," where newcomers can introduce themselves and get to know the other members! if you're a new member and haven't been to this thread yet, please visit and tell us a bit about yourself!

1. follow the ToS.

3. no fighting with other members.
4. do not spam in the forums.
i don't want our guild to get in any trouble and i'm sure you understand. i trust that all of you will follow the rules, so i'm not worried. if you notice someone is breaking the rules, please let me know.
otherwise, have fun, and enjoy the club!
