The tea party is a spa for the soul.
You leave your cares and work behind.
Busy people forget their business.
Your stress melts away, your senses awaken . . .
Alexandra Stoddard
The Secret Teatime Society was founded by a group of friends who wanted a place to just relax and be themselves. There aren't any fancy requirements of avatars, shop size, or anything like that. We strive for a guild where our members have a voice in the crowd, and not feel pressured to meet high "status" standards. It is a very relaxing and pleasant atmosphere, and a place for our members to call home. If The Secret Teatime Society sounds like the place for you, feel free to send your application to one of the contacts listed in the "Contact Us" section.
We don't really have "rules", just expectations.
We of course, expect all members to abide by TnT's rules. If we see anyone breaking TnT's rules on a regular basis, we will remove them from the guild.
Please respect all members.
There is no drama here. If a situation arises that you feel needs to be addressed, please contact a Council member and we will handle it accordingly. If someone continually starts or instigates drama, they will be removed from the guild.
Our expectations are not demanding and we expect all members to practice "common sense" social etiquette at all times.
We also expect everyone to be active in the guild. If you have been inactive for over a month, we will remove you from the guild. Please inform us if you are not able to log on because of a vacation, short hiatus, etc. so we can excuse you from being inactive.
Each new member will start off at the rank of "Heart Sprinkle Cupcake". This rank is a trial member rank.
Once the Council agrees the member is a good fit for the guild, the member will be promoted to "Berry Cupcake". This is our general rank for general active members who have gotten to know the guild a bit more.
After a member has been in the guild for 3 months, the Council will evaluate the member's participation and how active they've been in the guild. If it is agreed the member is deserving of the veteran rank, the member will be promoted to "Jasmine Tea" or "Magic Cake". Depending on the member's evaluation, they may not be promoted until a later time.
The Council has their own ranks which they choose. If a Council spot is open for whatever reason, a member will have needed to obtain Veteran Status to apply for the position. The Council can agree upon promoting someone before they obtain this status. Usually this means someone has been especially active, helpful, or has some skill that is needed in guild. Usually they will have to be all of those things.
The Council will agree on all promotions before they are put into place. Once it is agreed the member should be promoted, you will be able to choose which title you would like out of the 2 available.
Recruitment Status: Recruitment is currently OPEN, so check us out and see if you meet our requirements AND if this may be the right environment for you!
