From this hour I ordain myself loos'd of limits and imaginary lines,
Going where I list, my own master total and absolute,
Listening to others, considering well what they say,
Pausing, searching, receiving, contemplating,
Gently, but with undeniable will, divesting myself of the holds that would hold me.
- Walt Whitman
The people of FINESSE are a laid-back, casual bunch, trying to enjoy all aspects of the game without any of those ever taking priority over real-life affairs.
Family, jobs, pets- all those require our attention every day, and actually getting to sit down and move some pixels around is usually being considered a privilege.
With that in mind, we are trying to create a friendly enviroment were like-minded people can log on and relax, while (hopefully) having cool and interesting things to do inside the game world.
Like a pub, you're welcome to make new friends at the bar, or just sit in a corner and get shitfaced. (Just don't expect us to let you drive afterwards). Prices are reasonable, and there are plenty of stools and chairs to go around.
You're expected to be of legal drinking age, which for most countries should translate to 18+. Most of us are considerably older, and you probably wouldn't feel quite comfortable at our oftentimes slower pace. Of course, this doesn't apply to your kids “under your supervision”.
To keep the “amongst friends” atmosphere, we will never do any 25-person raids. EVER. This might result in sometimes more people being interested than having slots available, so you need to be flexible about taking turns.
Overall, we are trying to put PEOPLE over Principles, so your involvement will ultimately help setting the course. This means that you are absolutely encouraged to speak up and participate, be that through the forum, guild chat, or during our rambling sessions on Mumble or whatever Voice Comms we might be using at the time.
