Heroes Etc...
A Guild Wars Guild...
So... What does it mean
to be a Hero?
It means many things, to many of our members, but there
are a few things it should mean to all.
A Hero:
...Is courteous and respectful to all that they come into
contact with. Not just other Heroes, but everyone in the game. Wearing
the Flaming Hand of Heroes Etc... is a privilege, and any actions
we take while wearing that cape will reflect on the Guild as a whole.
In other words, Heroes do not embarrass themselves or the Guild by
being disrespectful to other people.
...Enjoys the companionship of
like-minded gamers. We strive to create an atmosphere where all can
be comfortable, and free to voice their opinions. Community and fellowship
can be enjoyed both in the game, and on our boards.
...Is open minded.
Even though we may all have a lot of things in common, in the end,
every Hero is a unique person, with their own wants and desires, their
own goals to achieve, and their own preferences. As long as those
differences are not at odds with the principles of our philosophy,
they are embraced as part of what makes the Guild what it is.
...Does
not regard The Ladder as the end-all and be-all of the Guild. We have
every intention of being effective at PvP. Our standing on the ladder
on the other hand, is not going to be the reward. Instead it
will be the teamwork and camaraderie we build playing together.
...Is
inside us all. It is the drive to excel, to acheive, to explore what
lurks around the next bend on the shady path. The true worth of a
Hero is not derived from her standing, his fame, or our rank. It is
the intrinsic quality that everyone identifies with, and from which
respect fonts. A true hero is your friend, ally, brother, sister,
mentor, and student.
So... Are you a Hero?
