Ranks in Depth: Airman

“Airman Welcome to the Dambusters! We really hope you enjoy playing the game with us, if you have other characters in the guild, please let your guildies know and we can adjust your rank.”

Vastly different to an Airman who in my mind, is all potential but with absolutely zero expectation or obligation. An Airman is the starter rank for a budding Dambuster and right from the beginning of your WoW career you can be glad you found this famous old guild because believe me, for every diamond of a guild like this one, there’s 100+ bullshit guilds out there with no leadership, no care and in many cases, unscrupulous reasons for having you among their ranks!

An Airman will be expected to ask questions in the guild chat (/g) if they need answers to anything about the guild or gameplay in general if they are a new player. It is encouraged that you interact with your guild mates on a regular basis although it is widely understood that some newcomers can be overwhelmed by the atmosphere and terminology used in the guild chat at times. There are also quiet periods when people are either asleep, AFK or just busy working hard at their own game so the guild chat isn’t always busy. Either way, a newcomer is totally welcome to open up lines of chat or stay as silent as they wish until more comfortable with their surroundings.

We have plenty going on so please keep an eye on the guild Message of the Day and keep up to date with your in-game calendar for possible guild events you can get involved in as long as they suit your schedule and you fit the criteria set out. You will see people asking for people to join up for dungeon runs, scenario runs, raids, battlegrounds and anything in between and I always encourage people to accept whenever you can but I also expect people never to pester people if they are happy just plodding along on their own.

This guild has always been proud of it’s relaxed, carefree attitude of allowing people to just play their own game without feeling forced into high level PvP or raid content if they don’t wish to join. We also feel strongly that it is our duty to provide our members with group content if they show a desire to get involved so we pretty much cover all levels of play. We have veritable professional WoW players who will level a character from 1 to 90 in a day and then solo arenas 1 v 2 but we also have players who just mosey along doing quest after quest and never really bothering to become particularly proficient in one specific class. We have folk who get bored when they reach level 90 and then just go start on their next levelling journey, folks who just like to cook and fish all their WoW life and people who like to lead naked fun runs in Molten Core and other fine old raid instances.

We are a guild for everyone, as long as you are nice and friendly and you reply when an officer whispers, then you are good enough to be a Dambuster.

In no time you will get promoted to Corporal and likely never look back as you become another part of the family of silly people we already have here. Remember that once you are here, any other characters you have are welcome to join. I recommend whispering an officer from your alternate character with a request for a guild invite and citing who you are, and you should be welcomed aboard as per the guild recruitment policies.

Remember that nothing is expected of you except politeness. Get to know the guild rules on this website, know who your officers are by checking the relevant page and enjoy your own game as much as you want. Responsibility is for the higher ranking members of the guild and if you want to lead then you will soon have chances to prove you’re up for it. On the same token, if you just wanna play your own game with your own little circle of friends then you will fit in just fine around here.
