Linkshell Rules

1. Respect each other.
2. Use respectful language in the linkshell. This includes refraining from any form of discriminatory and defamatory language including but not limited to racism, sexism, or any other form of bigotry. You cannot see the person on the other side of the internet, you do not know if they are a member of the religion you are about to lampoon. If what you say is fundamentally hurtful or disrespectful, do not say it.
3. Do not fight in the linkshell. Disagreement is fine, and constructive criticism to a reasonable extent is encouraged, and a lively debate is enjoyable, but no one wants to see you drag out your dirty laundry and air it out.
4. People have children, if it's a reasonable hour when children may be present, please don't say anything in LS chat that would be inappropriate for a family environment (try to keep it PG). If it's later at night exception will be made ("BladeSingers after dark").
5. Do not beg for gil, equipment, or power leveling in the shell, we are your Linkshell, your friends hopefully, but we are not your bank, your junkyard or your mother. We help each other get things sometimes, but generally not by bankrolling them.
6. If you're asking for help with something, do your homework. There's a great wealth of information on the internet about FFXI, most of which you should be able to access in advance. If you want help killing a monster for your new Shiny Artifact Boots of the Bacon Mage, this does not mean you need help finding out which NPCs you need to talk to, where the NM is, what items you need, etc. We're good about helping you with a fight, and if you ask nicely sometimes we can help with finding that stuff out for you, but mission help does not mean we show up and find out you haven't done anything. Cutscenes should be done in advance when applicable, and any requirement for a mission or quest that can be fulfilled solo should be completed before the event.
7. If you're being helped with something, you should show every courtesy to those helping you. This includes not only saying "Thank you" when the fights are done and everybody is getting ready to leave, but also bringing enough supplies for yourself, paying attention, not excessively going AFK, and making a reasonable effort to keep up (bring oil or powder or ninja tools if necessary, things of that nature).
8. BladeSingers is a very good, very old Linkshell, and we got there because we value our good name. Behave in a way that will bring respect to that name, not detract from it. While no list of such conduct violations can or will ever be complete, let's not try. If something is a conduct violation, it will be handled by the Linkshell's governing body in a manner that they see fit. Let's make sure this never happens.
9. Keeping your subjob properly leveled, while not a requirement per se, is highly encouraged. Level appropriate gear is attainable by everyone - this doesn't mean that you're expected to have godly gear, but things like wearing lizard armor in Bhafflau Thickets because it "looks cool" is strongly discouraged. If you need help attaining Rare/Ex gear, please see rule #6. If you need help finding a good way to raise gil through work and perseverance - ask. If you want a handout, please refer to rule #5.
