Before I get started, my rational for posting this here is to save people the time of emailing or PMing me. And to save me the trouble of responding with a generic "We are not accepting new members or applicants at this time." message. Which some people would take personally and think that its my way of brushing them off and saying "I don't want you in this guild," which its not. This way I can reach everyone at the same time, 2 birds with 1 stone, so to speak. So, with that said - here goes.

Okay, I've gotten a lot of requests recently about joining the guild. That's fine. However, I've recently placed a second-in-command into power. And we're starting to discuss certain aspects of our recruitment process for new guild members. So, to lessen my headaches and to save me time, we are no longer recruiting new members until it is posted otherwise somewhere on the board. Hopefully here, if the mods don't delete or close this topic due to constant off-topic-ness or something.

The only people who have a possibility of being accepted are those who have already asked about joining whom I have not given a definite yes or no to. Everyone else who hasn't talked to me before via email or PM about joining, please wait until we have a definite new membership process all worked out and set up. I hope this isn't in the wrong board, and I'd appreciate it if certain group leaders or members kept their possibly negative or critical opinions of this post in their heads, as I am still under a bit of stress and would be likely to start flaming people... and then I'd get into trouble. So please keep those types of comments to yourselves, or gossip about them in PM or something. I'd just rather not hear them.

Anyway, this is just a heads up to people until the Advantgarden der Dämmerung has itself sorted out. And to anyone who DOES PM or email me about joining until we have things straightened out, I will merely delete your request without responding, I may read it, I may not, depends on how crafty you are at mentioning it. But I will not reply or give it second thought. So don't waste your time, or mine. ^_^

Thank you.

Members are important...better buck up and hurry up...

To put us back on topic... I'm Asura, and the new second-in-command of the Avantgarden der Dammerung. Don't PM or e-mail me though. E-mail Wren. Because I don't want to be flooded by e-mails. I've already got enough as it is with junk mail and such.

And on another note... 15 members with 10 members either inactive or with meager posting skills is going to look a lot worse then a guild with 5 active members with good posting skills. Just my little point on why numbers isn't everything.

With recent changes in command in the Vanguards of Twilight, I've decided to reopen recruitment. So if you wish to join, please PM or e-mail me. E-mail would be preferred, and I'll respond as quickly as possible. But PMs work, too. I look forward to seeing the applications of anyone who wishes to join. Don't be afraid, we don't bite (too hard...). ^_^
