Welcome!

Hello there, lovely! You have stumbled upon easily one of the coolest guilds in all of Neopia! AZUR is an NR, 14+, public guild. We absolutely LOVE new members! AZUR is a warm, fun, dorky, and exciting atmosphere to be emerged in. Our members are always bundles of fun, guaranteed!



If you are looking for a fun, silly, drama free guild with people to talk to, then AZUR is the guild for you! There is usually at least one person online always. If you have any questions, feel free to neomail any council members! We would love to have you!

When we are private, we have a very short application. It is just there to make sure that we have some sort of filter as to who we are letting in to our guild!

If you have any questions at all, feel free to message Sava or Polly!



Member Sweep!
We want our guild to be as active and chatty as possible! With that being said, we ask that you post at least once every month! If you are going to go out of town, or know you are going to be busy, please just neomail someone on council and let them know! We will make a note of it, so that we do not sweep you!

Once you join the guild you have three days to introduce yourself and start chatting. If that is not done you will be swept from the guild! We are looking for active and chatty members to join our happy family!

Rules!

Rule 1. ENABLE YOUR GUILD MAILINGS This might possibly be the most important rule! The council frequently sends out guild mailings to let all the members know about certain guild updates, activities and how the guild teams are doing that month! If you're not sure how to enable them, go to the "Preferences" part of "my account" and just check off the little box! :)

Rule 2. Must be over 14! There can be some exceptions to this rule, but AZUR is a guild that requires maturity to some extent. We expect that our members are respectful and mature to other members, and as a simple way of making sure that this is met, we established the 14+ rule. If you are under 14 and wish to join, neomail a council member and have a little chat with them! They will decide if you are mature enough to join the guild. We are not asking for seriousness, because our guild is super silly and fun, we just ask that you aren't acting like a little kid.

Rule 3. Literacy is your friend! AZUR is a literate guild! What does that mean? It means that you speak with real words, use "s" not "z", capitalize and use punctuation! However, we OF COURSE allow you to say your favorite acronyms, "LOL" and "BRB" and similar! These are absolutely fine, as well as smililes! :)

Rule 3.Have a pretty & presentable font! This is more of a strong suggestion than a rule. Part of having a good account is having a nice font to use on the Neoboards (and guild boards!) Nice fonts make you seem more mature, more desirable to talk to, and, as silly as it sounds, you're more likely to be lent avatars and be chosen to adopt neopets on the PC if you have a nice font!
If you need some good premade fonts, here are a few sites that we love! (We also have some premade AZUR-related fonts for use here!)


If you're the type of person that likes to create their own font, here are some awesome tutorials!

Rule 5. Be Respectful! Hopefully all of you will follow this rule, as it is THE most important rule of AZUR! Respect is something that EVERY member deserves, no matter their guild rank, their age, or how long they've been on Neopets! Every person is equal in AZUR, and we are all part of a family - let's keep it that way!

Rule 6. Activity Is Key! AZUR is partly chat-based, and, even if it wasn't... What's the one thing that no matter what else is happening, keeps a guild going strong!? ACTIVITY! Without people posting on the guild message boards, our guild will seem like a ghost town. Who wants to be a part of a family where no one talks to each other?! We sure don't. We have member sweeps every two weeks to sweep out inactive members (with much warning, of course!) AZUR asks that members come online to chat THREE times a week. If that sounds like a lot to you, then maybe AZUR isn't your guild... We love to chat, chat, CHAT!

Rule 7. The council has it under control! It's really wonderful that you guys want to help out with the guild and take some work from the council - we appreciate your kindness! However, as members, it is your job to just have fun and be a part of the family! No worries about hosting any guild pages - the council takes care of it all! However, we do LOVE suggestions about new ideas for AZUR, so if you have any awesome ideas, be sure to tell us, we can't wait to hear! ^___^

Rule 8. Love yourself, love the members, love the council, LOVE! Who heard of a family without love!? We aren't saying go around virtually hugging and snogging our guild members (that would be weird, ok?), but we ask our members to try and bond with each other! When you belong to a guild with an environment of so much friendship and love, how could you possibly want to leave? AZUR wants to provide a place where our members are always getting that warm fuzzy feeling & end up grinning behind their computer screens. :) Enjoy your stay, lovelies!

Ranks!

Like nearly all guilds, AZUR has a rank system. Although higher ranks may be more trusted with certain avatar lends and adoptions, EVERY rank gets the same amount of respect and attention. The rank names change every month, to go along with then new layout, so

Seedling: This is the starter rank! Welcome friend! We can't wait to know you!

New Leaf: To reach this rank, you need to post at least 200 messages on the message board! Please neofriend the guild account at this point. You will now be trusted enough to be lent most items, and can now participate in 1np auctions! You are now able to apply for a council position! We are currently accepting council applications.

Petal: To reach this rank, you need to post at least 450 messages on the message board & earn at least 50 azubies in one month! Looks like your starting to look dedicated to AZUR.. Hooray!

Sunshine: To reach this rank, you need to post at least 750 messages, earn 75 azubies in one month for your team, and refer one member to the guild! You now have a lot of trust in the guild!

Blossum: To be awarded the FINAL rank in AZUR, you're REALLY going to have to work for it! It won't be easy, but you need to post at least 1,100 messages, earn 200 azubies in one month, and refer 3 members! You're now the highest rank possible in the guild! Great work, and thank you for all of your dedication and activity... We love ya!

Application!

Although we are a public guild, we ask that you fill out a small 'application' before joining. We simply have the application so that we can filter the people that are joining our guild. We don't want some random person that we haven't talked with to just waltz on into our guild! We like to make sure that you meet the few requirements that we do have.

Requirements:
- 14+ years old
- Semi-lit

Simple, eh?

Note: You can still join the guild if you do not meet the age requirement! You must simply mail your application to Sava and in addition, note which requirement you do not meet. Then, Sava will have a short conversation with you, ask you some questions, and then send you an invite (most likely)!



Application:
1. Name (what you prefer to be called)
2. Age
3. Time zone
4. A unique and awesome thing about yourself
5. Why you want to join AZUR
6. Who recruited you (if anyone)?


When you are finished with your application, send it to Sava or Polly! They will look over your application, and then send you an invite!

Council Chat!

Hello darling, I'm Sava, the leader! You can call me Badger too. I've been on neo since I was about seven years old. I've gone through so many accounts in that time, and am currently celebrating my longest lasting account of three years. Fingers crossed I don't lose this one! I'm a very helpful person, so I like to think, so if you ever need anything I am here for you. I've been a part of AZUR since the beginning. I instantly fell in love with the entire guild, and everyone in it. AZUR members are super accepting, silly, insane, and sweet. It was a perfect fit for me from the start. Outside of neo I enjoy singing, playing guitar, eating, sleeping, partying, and hanging with my friends and my amazing boyfriend. I'm 5'8" with currently black hair, lots of piercings, and multi-colored eyes. I usually wear jeans and sweaters. On neo I enjoy collecting avatars, chatting, lurking on the auctions, playing games, and creating layouts. I strive to have an account that makes people squirm in jealously. My main goal for Neo is to paint my beautiful Draik grey. All of my pets I have hand painted/morphed. Since joining AZUR I have enjoyed my time spent on Neopets 100x more. It is a comfy home for me, and I know that it will be for you too. I love to see new people, as does our whole guild. Everyone is welcoming and accepting. I know that you will love it as much as I do! If you have any questions you can message me, along with any other council member.



Hiya love! I'm Polly and I've been playing Neo since I was around 9 years old. I've used plenty of accounts during my time here, but I always end up reverting to this one, the first account I ever made. I promise I'll try my best to listen and give (helpful) advice to any problems you may have! I've been a proud member of AZUR since the beginning, and I instantly fell in love with this fabulous guild and all of the quirky members who put up with me! My hobbies include Scouting, playing The Sims 3 and watching comedy shows. I also use way too many exclamation points and I like to think I'm Kat Dennings. I'm also 5"8 and I'm a bespectacled Brit with brown hair just past my shoulders. I love my pets, on and off Neo. I have a gorgeous but demanding labradoodle pup called Daisy and she's my world. I'm currently saving up for nothing in particular, but I like having enough money to do as I please. And rolling in virtual currency is pretty cool. I seriously recommend AZUR to you, as it's made my Neopets experience so much more enjoyable and I know it will enhance yours as well. We're always looking to swell our masses and I hope to see you soon! If you have any questions, feel free to mail any of the council members, we'll be happy to help!
