Hello and welcome to PetSmart - Midgardsormrs first Pet linkshell.
We hope that your time with us will be fun and productive and you will achieve things that will make your FFXI experience that much better.
In order to ensure that people understand what is required from them the leaders of PetSmart have drawn up a set of rules that we believe we should all adhere to. If you have any question/queries about this then please PM me, Geode or Jaizon.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PetSmart:
Rules and regulations:
The following rules are intended for both new and old members of PetSmart.
1. Be Polite and respectful at all times. [Please keep any arguments/flames/etc to /tell’s as we do not want that in our shell]
2. Have fun and remember this is a game.
3. When applying to join PetSmart new members must have at least unlocked PUP, BST or SMN and plan on leveling that/those jobs, and when accepted, prove that they are doing so.
4. Depending on the number of 75’s already in the Shell, when applying to PetSmart preference will be given to players with SMN, BST or PUP at 75 as this helps with event activities.
5. When applying to PetSmart preference will be given to players with additional jobs at 75; specifically RDM, BLM, PLD, COR and WHM. This is because that for some events these jobs are still needed other than pet jobs.
6. When you are a member of PetSmart you are expected to take part in Linkshell life and at least drop in once per week to let us know you are still there. Members that persistently don’t show will be considered permanently AFK and Linkshell leaders will review their membership. However, we do appreciate that some members will already be members of other static/social/Dynamis type shells, and some of these are long time members. We do not expect members to give up any of their previous shells but don’t join PetSmart if you only plan to attend once per year!
7. All members must try to be active on our forum and specifically use it to sign up for events to help us plan them more thoroughly. If you have a suggestion for an activity please post it on the forum and it will be considered and placed on the PetSmart calendar if it is OK’d by a PetSmart Leader.
8. All members must register on the PetSmart forum. If you already have a social Linkshell then please ask an Lsleader to /befriend you so you can be seen when you are online if needed.
9. Members with the appropriate job level and type will be expected to attend Linkshell events whenever possible. If you are exp’ing SMN, BST or PUP and your level is not high enough for the event this is fine. We want members that will stop exp on other types of jobs in order to help out at events; this may sometimes mean dropping a party! If a member is seen to be ignoring this rule their membership will be reviewed by LsLeaders. We want active members in this Linkshell not members that are just out for themselves when they want stuff.
10. Members will receive ‘Merit Points’ for attending an event, longevity of participation and helping to farm items. These points are posted on the forum boards. Points may also be awarded by leaders for other activities and Ls Leaders reserve the rights to decide what this may be. An example would be a member that comes and raises an event party etc.
11. If possible, due to job level and job restrictions, members will be expected to help farm items used for Sky/Sea and force-pop NM’s. They will receive points for doing this even though they may not attend the actual event.
12. Members may ‘lose’ merit points if they do not turn up to planned events without explanation or through any activity that brings the Linkshell into disrepute.
13. PetSmart is both an event Linkshell and a social Linkshell at the minute, members should aim to support each other either through /lschat or through helping complete quests/mission whenever possible.
We hope that your time with us will be fun and productive and you will achieve things that will make your FFXI experience that much better.
