                                                       THE ALE PHILOSOPHY

To describe the ALE philosophy first lets examine ALE's name.  It is actually, believe it or not, an abbreviation

Apathetic-      That's right, it really doesn't matter to us, you won't find us setting up polls or petitions, just playing and flaming like the sloppy bitches we are

Lamentors-      ALE was originally founded by a bunch of people who were sick and tired of hearing people moan and whine about release dates.  Of course that was way back when, now the bitching has increased geometrically, and so have our numbers.  They now include people who are sick of Clan spam, and people who are sick of ignorance.

Of-   O.K.  The Of is actually in our title, we just dropped it out of the abbreviation.  Otherwise we would be the ALOE guild, and I for one won't be a part of something named after a fucking hand cream

Everything-  That's right, regardless of clan affiliation or standing, if you say something stupid, we will be there to correct you.

 We aren't like those 'pro-active' guilds that everyone is so tired of.  We don't expect much of our members other than your maintaining of some semblance of intelligence and a love of all things alcoholic.  We follow the tenants of Farnam the Drunk, which state that if you can't accomplish something, it is better to sit on the ground with a jug of moonshine and bitch about it.

RULES FOR BEING AN ALE MEMBER

1.  Have some sense about you

2.  Use your brain on a regular basis, especially when posting messages, or playing.

3.  Enjoy Blizzard games.

4.  Enjoy occasional intake of alcoholic beverages

5.  Don't take anything too seriously


Disclaimer:  ALE is not an anti-PK guild, or even a pro-PK guild.  Our numbers include full time PK's like X-Slayer, and more Co-op minded people like Incubus reX as well.  If you are looking for a group of people with whom you can sit around and bitch with about how "Co-oppers/PK'ers SuXX0r" please go away now.

THE INITIATION
To become an ALE member first must thou best our champion in a contest of drinking.  If thou canst drink yon Squirrel under the table then shalt thou accepted amoung us.  Be wary young knave, for the Squirrel has destroyed many a foolish whelp with his prowess.


Yes, the Squirrel has returned and is back in action as our local champion.  Which is good since the cat was making Pixie and Dixie nervous.1
