Frequently Asked Questions
Obviously there are some things you'll be wanting to know about the guild. Here's the place to find out what you need to know! Also, if you think of anything else, I'd be glad to post it here!
Q: What's the deal with _tortuga_ and leilariel? Who are they?
A: Leilariel is actually the guild leader, and _tortuga_ is the guild account. You'll be neomailing all your comments, contest answers and questions to leilariel, and she also takes care of all the guild up-keep. _tortuga_ is the place to donate items, np (buy from the shop) and also the account that hands out the prizes and newbie packs.
Q: How do I donate items or np to the guild?
A: You can donate items to _tortuga_, and to donate np, go buy one of the items from _tortuga_'s shop... there's a link on the homepage.
Q: What are crews?
A: Crews are like many guilds' "houses". There are three ships: The Interceptor, The Dauntless and The Black Pearl. There is a link to a site with a short quiz. Take the quiz and neomail your answers to leilariel. She will then place you in your crew! Your crews compete in earning points and at the end of a certain amount of time, every member on the crew with the most points wins a dubloon.
Q: How do I earn crew points?
A: There are many ways to earn points for your ship's crew. Posting, participating in contests, and contributing to the guild are just a few. You can find more ways on the "Ways to Earn Points" page.
Q: How do I raise my rank?
A: By posting messages! There is also a link on the guild page to a site where you can see the posting system and how many messages you need to progress in rank.
Q: I want to captain a crew... and what does a captain do?
A: The position of Captain can only be obtained by a council member. This may change later on, but for now only council members can apply. Captains really don't do much. They are still allowed to earn and contribute points to their houses, but it's basically just a fun position.
Q: I want to be on the council... what can I do to have a better chance? What is considered a good application?
A: The main thing that gets you on the council is being an active member! Post messages and contribute all you can towards the guild. As for your council application, a very good thing to add (much appreciated!) is about how often you're on Neopets. This will give the guild leaders a good idea of how active you can be.
