Rift Chapter Meeting Minutes Thursday March 3, 2011

I. Opening Remarks:

a. Lord Cistern Introduced himself as chapter Lord Preceptor and Lord Mortition as Lord of Saints. Mentioned that the position for Senior Battle Chancellor is still vacant and asked anyone interested in performing in that position to contact him about their interest. Due to the newness of the game and the infancy of the chapter it is expected that this position will not be filled immediately but considering the need to meet some of the HC requirements for full chapter status the position would do best to be filled within the next 30 days.

b. Lord Cistern mentioned that since his experience from the start in the beta and through today, he has enjoyed the game and is very happy he decided to make Rift his primary game. He had a glitch with his characters today thinking it might have been hacker activity but the evidence is looking more towards a server issue. Results of that will be forthcoming.

c. Lord Cistern spoke about a need for volunteers for the position of Saint Advisor due to the fact that since the chapter of STC will be heavily recruiting during the immediate future that we should try to be prepared to handle serving the new novices that do come on board with the best support possible. Lord Cistern also asked Chantalina to act as Chapter Scribe until a full time Chapter Scribe could be found to take the position and Chantlina accepted.

d. Lord Cistern mentioned that the chapter had succeeded in completing its first dungeon run.

e. Lord Cistern welcomed ‘Samadams’ the first new novice to the chapter. Samadams/Brian has filled out an application on the website.

II. Remarks from the Grand Preceptor:

a. Lord Sabreth talked about the role of the Grand Preceptor and explained that he will be in-game for a while to help support the officer team and the growth of the chapter in any way he can. He mentioned he had temporarily dropped his WoW account to be able to be in Rift full time.

b. Lord Sabreth talked about the High Council giving full support to the development of the chapter in Rift, and the requirements for obtaining full chapter status. The minimum of a full officer team after the first 30 days in the game and at least 2 new novices per month in recruiting effort.

c. Lord Sabreth talked about the real test for the survivability of the chapter will be after the 30 day free online play expires and we see who is actually left playing. If there is not a major drop off in population then chances for success for the chapter will be good.

III. Lord Mortition spoke about in-game invites and that for the time being all officer levels including Saint Advisors will have in-game invite permissions. There was a question by Samadams as to how invites in-game were to be processed? It was decided that for invites, an interested person should be referred to an officer during their in-game play for the invite. During the discussion it was brought up by Chantalina that to facilitate new people coming into an invite situation they should be given access to the STCchat channel once they defined some type of interest in the guild. After some discussion, Lord Mortition mentioned that we should reactivate the in-game invite with the 1 week period for doing the website application which was a previous policy used by the WoW chapter of the guild and seemed successful for the period of initial growth. After further discussion on the subject Lord Cistern decided to adopt this policy for the time being and so new novices will be invited to the chapter in-game immediately upon a decision to do so by an officer and then required to fill out an application on the website within 1 week of that in-game invite. This policy will be held for periodic review from Lord Cistern to monitor its success. Chantalina volunteered to act as a Saint Advisor to help out with new novices and was accepted into the position. Chantalina will be using his toon, Kreeten for his main in Rift. During this part of the discussion it was mentioned that novices will be required to complete all novice requirements as currently established for the WoW chapter and Saint Advisors will be required to conduct themselves as per the Saint Advisor duties adopted by the WoW chapter. On any questions in this area see Lord Mortition for clarification.

IV. Final Thoughts: Lord Cistern thanked everyone for being there and was hoping to get in a dungeon run after the meeting but it turned out that some had other things in the fire so we didn’t have enough people and with the issue with Lord Cistern’s healer naked and no gear it wasn’t to be. During these comments Lord Sabreth posted in general chat a message about STC recruiting and we had an individual turn in an application to the website so as we closed we were able to welcome Astryn/Jackie as a new novice.

V. Meeting Close
