Actually for me 50 different scrolls is not as bad as the same scroll advertised every five minutes, but this is all wandering off topic. I was just establishing that you expect some common sense in your alliance chat too.
When actually asked for NFD alliance rules this was the statement I made:

We expect individual guild officers and gm's to enforce the spirit of this, while they are free to have their own subsets if they choose.
In response to other posts, I really wouldnt describe NFD as an RvR orientated guild. Most of the guild chat has nothing to do with RvR, but mostly involves making fun of Jupiter. Alliance chat is a mix of spats of banter with the usual lfg rvr, lfg pve stuff, and the occasional grats, along side to the point rvr info - you know the stuff Bolg on fire, fg of mids headed DC west bridge etc. When people need artifacts sorting they are generally done off the cuff, as a number of NFD people can field the required firepower to do just about everything in minutes. Master Level group steps generally fall under the same category, ive even ran through ml7 group steps on my own.
The days of large alliances with constant spam I think are pretty much over due to the size of the remaining prydwen population. Merges with like minded Excal guilds could alter that, but again, presuming it is like minded guilds you are recruiting it is for the guild officers and gm's to enforce whatever you're alliance rules are.
It's been a long, heated and useful discussion, and Aran as leader of NE has set out his position - recruitment from like minded guilds for NE. Thats a sensible approach for NE. Along side that, build bridges between NFD and NE alliance, so our goal is to think of ways to do that - pug groups in my mind are by far the most useful mechanism for that - it promotes talking, it promotes getting used to play styles, people with rvr experince can pass on tips if the advice is wanted. Then it also strengthens realm events, making people who are familiar with each other more likely to form groups.
*edit (again!)
That also applies to non-rvr events.
Also lets all promote prydwen.net if we can. It seems that this place is awfully quite when you look at the number of active players - sometimes it just feels like its a handful of NFD people, the mods, and a handful of NE people.
Incidently the NFD forum has a general chat area where cross as info can also be posted.
