Our Philosophy
Random Kindness in the Midst of Warcraft?
Do hours of power levelling leave you with a strange empty feeling? The One is the first guild to openly embrace and take to heart the concepts of Random Kindness and Pay It Forward. The One operates on the Alliance side of European English World of Warcraft Realm on the server Thunderhorn.
Being a member of The One requires adherence to three rules:
- Help yourself.
- Help your guild members.
- Help others.
You must practice all 3 to be an active member.
We all know how to help ourselves. We're not expecting anyone to fight with a robe, bowl and chopsticks as their only possessions.
Helping guild members is usually self apparent. Give away potions, patches, bags, weapons, armour, enchantments. Send your wool to the nearest guild tailor. Give some unused magic items to the nearest group enchanter. If you need to, ask for a small donation to cover your base costs.
What does it mean to help others? There are two kinds of help. Trivial and significant.
Random Kindness
Practice random kindness regularly. It's not hard. It's just common sense.
- Help others in combat casually as you go. Assist with a kill. Pull a mob off a fleeing player. It doesn't matter if you get the experience for it. Rez people not in your group.
- Give small gifts. It may not be useful to you but a lower level character or a different class can benefit from small items that you'd only sell to the vendor for a small amount.
- Play fair. Don't ninja loot or skin. Stick in your group until everyone finishes the quest. You know what to do.
Pay It Forward
Practice kindness you might not otherwise think of. Give away a bag to a low level character. Make some nice armor for someone you barely know. But for bigger favours, there's a catch!
Anytime you do a non trivial favour for someone ask them to make you a promise. They must Pay It Forward. In the next week, they must do an equally significant favour for someone they don't know and must ask that person to Pay It Forward as well. (The week deadline is important as it helps people to remember.)
We're not creating arbitrary conditions for our services. We're trying to create a meme that will spread across the server committing people to kindness and creating a better play environment. This is your free time. Would you rather spend it in a world of me-first or in a grand fellowship?
Inspired By
This guild was inspired by an excellent editorial by TucksMe posted originally at OGaming (no longer available).
Getting Started
If you have a noble heart and want to put it into practice apply to join as an initiate. Again, that's Thunderhorn (PVE Alliance.)
The One is not a raiding or zerg guild.
The One is not restricted by class or experience. We have beta veterans who will help teach the next generation.
