Ahoy for those mates that may have missed last weeks meeting:
Here be a quick summary of last week's meeting and event...
Meeting was called to order; Attendance was taken.
Announcements:
The court was created to run events, not have politics amongst guilds and individuals. Therefore some changes to the way meetings are held are coming.
New Guild Membership will be slower in inducting new guilds into TBC.
The growth of the court during the 2 month time frame has been rather rapid and the initial foundations of trust amongst participating guilds did not set properly before we started building the house.
Circle of Trust needs to be established among the guilds currently involved before brining on new guilds, however, new guilds are still encouraged to participate to show their willingness to help out and also help gain the trust of the other guilds of TBC.
Also, New Guilds wanting membership should have an existing TBC member sponsor their guild for membership. This will help mates own up to their word that they will bring respectable guilds into the court, and make them more cautious of who the sponsor.
Concerning offenses against The Code:
For those that have been with this from the beginning it is essential to honor and uphold the code at all times, be it TBC event gathering or not. Many guilds are in agreement that a "one chance" rule be initiated to show the seriousness of The Code. Trust is essential for our Court to function. Trust can be established through doing joint ventures IN GAME and through discussion on the Forums. Slanderous or skewering remarks do not become a member of TBC, especially it's senior leadership. Any pirate with TBC membership found violating Disney TOS and TBC Code, with proof of said violation, will be suspended from their position in the court and possibly even from TBC. NO GREY AREA here folks. It is the duty and responsibility of the senior leadership of TBC to set an example for all participating guilds of fair play and respectful gaming. It is the duty of EVERY GM and SENIOR OFFICER of each guild participating in TBC to filter the Code we've set forth as a community, down to the lowest bilge rat on yer ship, so that every mate is informed.
(The decision to suspend any member of the Steering Committee inevitably falls on the table of TBC Chairmen, and it was a choice weighed with the utmost seriousness and not voted on before the court)
(Any evidence presented of a TBC member violating The Code, be it eye witness account or screen shot, will be taken into account by TBC Chairmen and Steering Committee Members for a ruling of action)

Also,
We have the support of many pirates around the Caribbean who are pulling for us and applauding our accomplishments.
Going into the 2nd month anniversary it is my hopes that we can spread the spirit of brethrenhood and team work for the dark winds soon to be blowing into our island homeland.
This upcoming War will be further addressed at the 2nd Anniversary Meeting, Wed, 08/19/09
Sorry if i missed anything mates!
